would have been great if the second couple didn't exist

this drama is pretty good, if you completely ignore the second couple's existence. which i did. i skipped basically every scene with the two of them because they quite frankly disgust me. i mean the line "i want to be you brother and your lover" says it all. there's incest, rape, stalking, an age gap. it's like every bad thing you could possibly put in a couple. and they romanticize all of it. Fu Yong Jie (who i have nicknamed Tibby because i hate him so much) is a whole ass psychopath. he needs help. on the contrary, i actually think Xing Si needs even more help because he somehow decided he fucking reciprocated Tibby's feelings???? i just absolutely hate the second couple and they would have ruined the show for me if i gave a shit about them. but i don't so here we are.
now onto Li Cheng and Mu Ren. they're cute. that's all. just a wholesome, if a bit tropey, love story between these two guys. some parts of this show are a bit cringey, a bit questionable, a bit weird, but i overall enjoyed it just because i liked Li Cheng and Mu Ren's romance. i mean the supportive friendship between Li Cheng, Mu Ren, and Xing Si was also sweet and nice to see. honestly i like the show a lot more after the two couples have gotten together. it's very cute and i was suddenly very invested in Li Cheng and Mu Ren's relationship. the acting is ok. it's pretty good, compared to the other shit i've seen in bl's. the music is good also. honestly i gave this show a pretty high rating after everything i've said. so i'd give this a chance and just pretend Xing Si and Tibby don't exist and watch for Li Cheng and Mu Ren.
