Hahaha! I know right!

For once, the fighting choreography is pretty good here and I'm only at episode 8. Hope this gets even better.

I'm re-watching this drama :)

Ah! You're touching on exactly the point the writers are trying to highlight - there's no exactly who is right and who is wrong. With Mingyue's mother being a control freak, it is suffocating living under her, and in the viewers' eyes, she is at fault. But Mingyue points out that the faults are not on the mother alone; every one of them contributes to the situation they're in. Mingyue's family is very typical of many Asian families. When one partner is too lazy to think about the path for the family, the other takes over. Over the years, it becomes a habit/routine. It works well when Mingyue is little because warm dinner is always ready, the house in spick and span condition, the kid's learning excels, all the after school classes are taken care of. But as the kid becomes an adult, the habits of the adults still haven't transformed. This leads to the resentments. Mingyue points out that, though a good father who provides for the family financially, his hands are clean all the time. He has never attempted to help out nor made any decisions. Now, he is trying to blame his wife for everything, after everything she has done for them, that's not fair. Many divorces have similar reasons: one partner blames the other for being too controlling and they can't stand it, but has never looked into themselves.

No.

No. He's not ready for romance yet. But he gets his mother and the whole family. That's what he has been wanting all along.

Yes, that's one of my favorite moments, and then she rushes to try on the bras Ling Xiao has bought for her, brings them out, waving high for all to see, screaming, "It's the lacy type!" Ling Xiao is so embarrassed. The whole thing is so endearing and cute.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm trying to say, like in this drama, it doesn't need to be blood related to have a great family. It just needs love, compassion, patience, empathy, courage, among others. So in my neighbor's case, they have a great family with a special needs adopted daughter because they have all these qualities - love, compassion, patience, courage etc.

They're on YouTube. Just search for "goodbye my princess extra scenes", they should appear. There are about 4 episodes of 3-5 minutes each. Enjoy!

Song Weilong said he's rather similar to Ling Xiao. I wonder what his (Song Weilong's) backstory is.

Yes, it is a great watch for us. Hope you'd enjoy it as much as we did :)

Of course they have to be together; they're meant for each other. Without Jianjian, Ling Xiao would perish. By the last episode, everyone is addressing Ling Xiao as Jianjian's hubby though they're not married yet :D

She's not very consistent with her facial expression. She can be very cute and fun, but a lot of the times, her facial expression is simply blank, rendering the viewers confused as what/how she is supposed to feel at that particular moment. I've seen a few of her dramas. I like her characters but not so much her acting.

That call of "Ye Hua" has a different feel from this one XD XD XD

Bai Shu's acting is amazing! I love the hissing sound he makes, and his slithering movements. Simply incredible!

Has anyone counted how many times he got stabbed? How many "Si Feng" has Xuan Ji called (my brain is still ringing with the name Si Feng)?

The writers have shown us in a very subtle way there's no love triangle at all. The relationships between Li Jianjian and Ling Xiao, and Li Jianjian and He Ziqiu are very different. Viewers need to catch the very subtle hints from their actions, words and body language. It is brilliantly written and not explicit.

Hahaha! They get the opposite reaction from you. Instead of making you cry, you laugh instead. Then, there could be a problem with the directing :D

A neighbor adopts a child from China. The adopted girl has a genetic disease and she can't walk. But she's the star in the family. Her adoptive brother carries her everywhere they go. Her adoptive parents love her like the most precious thing in the world. Had she remained in the orphanage in China, she would have perished.

Oh, BTW, everyone addresses Ling Xiao as Jianjian's hubby in the last 2 episodes, they sleep together, so go figure :D
