What's the time skip and why do they separate based on the novel?

That's good!! At least it's not some third act breakup. I'm glad they get to grow and become adults and that their adult life is spent together where they're more stable and able to make decisions independently. Since even if they did have something going in uni the whole long distance/different lifestyle wouldn't have really favored them. It's good that they have that transition and able to just be together. Hopefully, there's no big drama and it's just kind of a falling apart b/c of the diff uni's and family problems/difficulties since that would def speed up their relationships once they reunite

In the drama: She was around 15-16 when they first met but now that they’re married she’s 19ish b/c she had the 3 year mourning period and basically 1 year from the time her and Yanyun started interacting ( so like 4 years later) I’m guessing Yanyun is late 20s tbh b/c he got married young too and (probs 18ish)his wife passed so he’s been mourning for a while ( also life expectancy was around 40-50 years in Ming Dynasty so for him to be called “young” for his position I don’t think he would necessarily be in his mid to late thirties)

Right cuz I also thought the hand gesture that Qingpu made was like about making out ( now idk b/c they’re making it such a big deal) 😂😂

Def bad b/c the ml had a whole scene where he realized his masters plan, and you see him being very upset and basically plotting to pretend to be on their side, but actually being neutral so he can eventually make a plan to save himself and not side with his master

Also, what is the gift or what's the significance?

EXACLY, like they're acting like she was the scientist who created the product out here. Just because she promoted a product doesn't mean she's in charge of the creation of it. There's only so much investigation you can do as a model/spokesperson for a product (it's not like they're gonna give you the recipe for you to inspect). ALSO, the lack of mention of her mom with the whole incident really shows the audacity of people, especially b/c she was most likely a rookie at that time so it's not like she was well versed in that world yet (unlike her mom 🙄). That Na jin girl saying "What is she doing here" acting like she was the one in the lab creating the product and not just a rookie promoter who had endless backlash and got the blame of it all ( for a sec I though she was an ex classmate or something the way she was referring to her like she knows her fr 🤡) obv she's jealous and her lack of understanding is hindering that even further.

He reminds me of Mu Qingyan but modern 😭🤣

The Meng is her mothers family that her dad married into ( her maternal grandfather was a noble general) & her dad’s name was Wei Qilin ( worked for Wei family so he adopted their family name/ like Xie Zheng’s soldiers do). Her dad was a trained assassin and received merit and was recognized by General Meng ( grandpa) which then led him to be betrothed and marry into the Meng family. Her dad was widely recognized as a respectable and strong warrior but was later labeled as a traitor due to the ml’s uncle schemes and betrayal which led him to escape w/ his wife after imminent danger was evident and General Meng and many more were implicated ( ml’s uncles schemes)

What episode has she officially fallen for him? Like what episode does she do this?

Is there a way to see the full letter?

Also what the heck happened in today's episode with her and Duan b/c that was so out of left field and her just deciding to "seduce" the ML was even more bizzare (like I thought she was going to try and start something with the Imperial Doctor and all of a sudden they do this sort of character switch up)

Indeed that is the case (based on what I have heard from other people who read the manhwa and saw the donhua)

Is he evil or something b/c he keeps telling him to kill her?

Do they ever have a breakup era after they get together?

Thank you!!!

What episode does he recover his memory?

Episode this is revealed?

Did he recover his memories?
