The sister was delulu for HM long before the sister died š . Makes you wonder why did they exactly break up…
Itās in ep 12.
Small edit - I totally get what you mean by missing things - i kind of misremembered certain bits of the episode - they did show the girlās face in the first montage but if you donāt focus, she low key looks like Lei since sheās wearing a cap.

Yes - it was implied in the scene where they introduced the Investor siblings if Iām not mistaken-Lei made a hangover drink? Around this time they show a montage of HM during his London years with a young woman whose face was mostly hidden (the audienceās assumption is that itās Lei). Later in the same episode, Lei reminisces the past about how she knew HM best and we get to see the same scene from earlier, only this time the camera zooms on a third person who wasnāt in the first montage -itās Lei.
Seee this is the issue - he doesnāt have anybody to bro with unless they are on his payroll/ psychotic about…
Totally agree with this- they are finally seeing each otherās true selves - unmasked. Before ep 13, they barely knew each other.
Did you watch ep 24 yet? One thing I loved about todayās episode is how during the delivery scene, Yan made it extremely clear that she wanted to be independent for herself and HM in turn finally LISTENED to her. Even his reason for being there on his own felt quite nice (he could have boasted that he should be the one to personally help her but instead lied that his team was unavailable).
Me too. I felt happy for him. But in one of the previews, he seems to be still stalking QL and YYM and his facial…
The fact that HM orchestrated his transfer doesnāt help their case eitherš
The insane timing could be due to many reasons honestly - perhaps he too was contacted by the rival (hopefully not), HM may have contacted him to indirectly help Yan without her noticing (my bet is on this), or they could seriously have been just lucky or something else Iām missingš
is Lu Si lips injected in this show? they dont look normal here
Itās the lip tint choice. Itās different from what we are used to/ the other characters in the show so your focus tends to go there at times (at least thatās my case).
Seee this is the issue - he doesnāt have anybody to bro with unless they are on his payroll/ psychotic about…
FAT - how could one soul keep popping up in the same timeline? Does he like possess bodiesā¦.or are we talking about toddlers?š
Ep 24 - itās heart warming and yet at the same time irritating to see how much trouble Yan has to go through - the ā1 ep per dayā isnāt helping eitherš
IKR?1 I would have never imagined ZLS to partner so well with a guy as old as WC (I know she had another age gap partner previously but the gap was obvious unlike here). One thing I find amazing is that when i see ZLS, I donāt identify her as āSang Zhiā from Hidden Love. I mean have this issue where whenever i see the MC from WIFTY or even the ML from Hidden Love in other work, I canāt seem to be able to separate the character from the actor? But with ZLS itās effortless.
Who is DT? I didnāt realize that Iāve seen WP before (from Crush) but itās surprising how familiar her voice is even though I watched it years ago.

Judith McNaught was quite the phase nglšš¤
IDK honestly, itās just his actions remind me of somebody who was hurt that he was deceived. One line in particular bothers me - when Yan asked him if he had ever loved her, the way he phrased it kind of struck odd (could be a translation error though). His answer was āfrom the moment I found out you were a fraud I could never love youā instead of his usual blunt snarky response. Even in their last fight, HM totally lied (in the jeep) about all the things he hated about her so I canāt help feeling heās been lying for much longer. The extravagant gifts reminded me of JMcnaught since in one of her stories, the ML wrongly believes that the FL loves another man, so he āpaysā for her attention after they get married with jewels and stuff and refuses to accept her love since itās āfakeā.
My theory is that he really did fall for Yan for all the reasons he listed during the ill fated dinner scene but once he found out about the scam, he closed his heart? Heās pretty much addicted to running background checks on everybody so this could have been a routine check just to understand her better/ figure out if his parents would accept her (red flag behaviour but eh heās Houmingš ).
Yan definitely still loves him but her world has shattered since the main reason why she loved him no longer exists - he didnāt in fact know her or trust her š« I really like her character- sheās flawed but incredibly badass given how terrible her life has been. Houming needs to improve but based on the latest episodes thereās hopeš
Seee this is the issue - he doesnāt have anybody to bro with unless they are on his payroll/ psychotic about…
It was a game of patience- I tried to rewatch their scenes again and found quite a lot of hints that were overlooked the first time (particularly HMās true feelings for Yan).
Iāve read a novel (Once and Always by J. Mcnaught) that is low key similar to this to a certain extent so it wasnāt that difficult to understand HMās perspective but it feels good to know that I wasnāt simply projecting my delusionsš

FAT - Thanks for the recommendation! Does it cover all 10 lifes? The plot sounds interestingš
The shady lawyer did feel familiar for some reason - apparently he was in āAlways Homeā too - only I canāt exactly recall his character now š
Were you able to catch up with Loveās Ambition? Iām afraid Iāve gotten a tad too obsessed by it now- the next few episodes are kind of predictable but thereās something magnetic about the show that makes me impatient for moreš
Seems to me there's going to be another paternity test... Is his "brother" really his son or was Hao Ming…
TMAI - gosh are things going to escalate in the next couple of episodes š I hope theyāll put us out of our misery by this week with the express package.
Seems to me there's going to be another paternity test... Is his "brother" really his son or was Hao Ming…
Yes- seems like his relationship (godson) must be a secret since I find it hard to believe that HM wouldnāt run a background check on the lawyer whoād be taking care of a time bomb like the sister.
Seems to me there's going to be another paternity test... Is his "brother" really his son or was Hao Ming…
Yes, I'm confident that the Shens will not abandon Chen but I just feel so bad for Chen. He's just found happiness after a long time only to have everything shattered so soon is just š And to make it so public too??
Miss Cleavage (š¤£) definitely needs an unforgettable lesson. I wonder what the Lawyer's deal is...is he related to the rival ceo?

Gosh I hope he really is HM's sonš
It's already bad enough that Chen has to deal with the fact that his brother is his dad (and incorrectly assume that Yan left because of him)....but if he finds out that he's just a pawn in the crazy sister's scheme, it'll kill him š„²
Can't put it past her though. Her only excuse is that HM is her nephew's father.
She played with fire and got burnt. Besides Haoming has no use of her anymore even as a business partner, so he…
Honestly the sister deserves it- not once did she show empathy for her sister's death and instead used her son as an excuse to lust after Haoming. He did warn her several times afterall too.
As for Yan, he's not going after Xu Yan because she is still useful. He knows he messed up badly so he's trying to use all his resources to win her back (in a clumsy manner).
He knows her worth and how hard she works (he mentioned this several times during the initial divorce arc and after she quit). HM is a hypocrit and has been lying throughout the drama. His feelings are subtle but his anger is mostly because he's hurt that she came after him for his wealth. It's all between the lines.
For instance, when Yan asked him if he ever loved her, his answer was "from the moment I found out you were a fraud, I could never love you".- this doesn't mean that he never loved her. There was a time he really was interested in her IMO.
Even on her birthday, he personally fixed the arrangements (he was working on of the lamps when the crazy sister called him). If he truly was using her with no feelings attached, he would have just got his secretary to do everything.
Even with Lei, he became stone cold after she told Yan everything (he even told Lei that she deserved to die for telling Yan everythingš ).
The thing with Haoming is that he can be extremely cruel and childish if you cross him. It's understandable why he initially thought she was a gold digger BUT he should have realized the truth when she kept trying to tell the truth. That's where his mistake lies. By the time he realized her sincereity, it was too late.
