I will definitely reread the novel now and compare it to this adaptation. I am enjoying the heck out of both.…
A Round Trip to Love is still one of my all-time favorite Chinese BL films, right alongside Addicted.
I can't even count the number of terrible things Lu Feng did to Xiao Chen in the novel. He was genuinely a horrible person. I first read it back in 2017, and now I'm rereading it again.
Both the film adaptation and the novel are incredibly good, even though they're undeniably toxic. In the novel, Lu Feng is a selfish asshole who always wants the final say. He rarely listens to Xiao Chen, dismisses his opinions, and constantly tries to control everything around him... Even majority of the sex between them wasn't enjoyed by Xiao Chen. Lu Feng was a sex maniac too.
As frustrating as he is, that toxicity is a huge part of what makes the story so compelling.
Lu Feng also had sex with Xiao Chen in front of his son or was it he played the video of them having sex for Xiao Chen's son.... i can't remember
I am sorry but in episode 7 and 8 i can't hate Lu Feng. Nah I love Xiao Chen but boy if i was his best friend i would slap sense into his thick head. Lu Feng loves aggressively he also promised Lu Feng they would be together.
Lu Feng still came back and searched for him and that boy threw his sim card away (I am so pissed thinking about it again). Now he sees him on tv and wants to crawl back... "boy get the f out" was he expecting Lu Feng to still be sad and unsuccessful mtchewwwwww
i was thinking of something. i get it that yichen was torn between his mum and lu feng. cause before the first…
I understand that Xiao Chen was angry but he should have taken sometime to think. Even after he got married, his mum died he should have searched for Lu Feng who would have understand why he had to do that. Mind you LU Feng still came back and searched for him.
The new Episode is so depressing. Normally i find romance series where its obvious how it will end boring. But…
LOL hnestly, all the frustration is what makes the story work for me. If they had gotten together early and stayed happy, i would've been bored. The bad decisions, time skips, family pressure, and heartbreak are painful to watch, but they're what keep me invested. I'm annoyed too, but i'd rather have a messy, emotional story than a predictable romance with no real conflict.
