To be fair, Qian and Yuan have always been extremely close in their own way since even before the day Lili let him into their home. It's always Qian and Yuan. They are pretty co-dependant. Even growing up, we can see that Qian was more in charge of Yuan's life than Lili's.

So you'd never imagine that your clingy adopted brother was secretly hitting on your brother right? She finds it annoying in a jealous sibling way but i don't really blame her for not figuring it out - she's only known "clingy Yuan" all her life.
She can see that it's strange but she's missing the "gay" puzzle piece.

Lili does need to mature more though but i guess that's the side effects of being treated like a princess even with their poor circumstances. She does try to make things easy for Qian in her own way and trys not to bother him though so that's good.


Finally, it's not Sangpan's secret to tell Lili (specially since even after 4 years, Qian is still dealing with it badly) so I'm rather releaved that Sangpan's loyalty towards Qian is still there (even if he did start dating Q's sister behind his back)

Sp and Lili are only together as a plot device so not really a surprise- they aren't together even in the novel.

But hey if SP and Lili's relationship helps Qian to move forward with Yuan, i'm all ears 🙈

Loved that bit - It's all fun and games for Yuan- even "murdering" Sangpan, until Ning comes up again 🤣

He didn't even hesitate

Yes! Since we know that Yuan would never intentionally hurt Qian, and he routinely reminds Q of his intentions, it doesn't really feel uncomfortable.

Both Kurt and Chris (along with the rest of the cast) are doing an amazing job and even their interviews are so fun to watch 😀

The collar scene 🙈🙈🙈

The sad thing is moving on we are going to keep getting illegal cliff hangers every week- they are going to torture us even more now
🥲🥲🥲🥲

Think so...i remember in one of the trailers or sneakpeeks of THAT scene where Qian confesses that he was scared when Yuan asked if Q was just pitying him or something like that

They'll probably stop ep 9 at the point Qian stops Yuan from leaving/ Yuan looks back at him so soulfully and start ep 10 with the fireworks (if you knlw what i mean)🙈🙈🙈

Since SP seems close to Qian's age and Lili and Yuan are more or less the same age, the gap is similar - about 6-8 - just a guess though

I'm not sure if Yuan majored in Tech or Psychology back in UCLA - he's toooo good at it 🤣🙈🙈🙈

Oooh yes - Yuan's quite the puppet master now. Qian doesn't stand a chance avoiding his 💓😉🤣

Think "dying" is an understatement 🙈🙈🙈 Yuan managed to kill my ghost's ghost with his smiles, stares, and that last caress 🙈✨️

They know their fans too well 🙈🙈🙈

Good one 🤣🤣🤣

Honestly after the hell Qian went through, he deserves to be treated like he is fragile by his loved ones - pamper him! 🙊

About keeping Qian out of the loop, what we are forgetting is, in the last 4 years, Qian was living in his own miserable bubble. Even Lili seems to feel like Qian doesn't care enough about her as much as he cares about Yuan (we know that she is wrong but to her, Qian's actions seem otherwise). The longer Q kept to himself without sharing his thoughts, it's possible that perhaps the rest of the gang just didn't want to weigh him more with more concerns till they found the right time 🙊

Yuan is deliberately being pushy- he knows that Qian likes him back but is too stuck in the past
So he's using psychology (the 21 days behaviourial theory) to help Qian get used to the new "not so brotherly" Yuan. Qian's definitely flusterred but you don't reaaally hear him complain (at least for now). Qian can protect himself 🥊🥊🥊 so if Yuan does cross the line (which hopefully he won't since Y truly doesn't want to hurt Q), Qian will certainly show Yuan some ✨️

Is it expensive? 🙊🙊🙊
Given how quickly spoilers get released for the show idk how we will survive 2 weeks 💀💀💀💀

Totally agree with you on SP and Lili's relationship. Eventhough we don't see it, every single episode, it's always mentioned that SP and Lili are close (I still find the thing where SP was supposed to be on a diet to support little 2016 Lili's goal super cute).

SP is Lili's main protector since it would have been impossible for Qian to stay afloat without SP's support.

It's also possible that since Qian pretty much lived in his own miserable world for the past 4 years, Lili and Y may have unintentionally gotten even more close. We keep hearing Lili's (misunderstood) POV that Q loves Yuan more than her. So it wouldn't be a surprise if Lili's already budding crush on SP grew 10 fold since SP's always there for her.

The age gap may be icky at first but it wasn't like SP had any ulterior motive. His main objective was always to help Qian - falling for Ili was just an accident.

PS: i honestly don't think SP actually helped change Lili's diapers- it's just a crude joke to rile up Lili (the joke is very Lili- Yuan coded🙊)

I'd love to see Qian attack all of them with deadly cotton swabs 🤣🤣🤣

Lili + SP probably have a similar age gap as Qian + Yuan.

I guess after seeing rediculously large age gaps, i guess a 6-8 age gap no longer sounds thaaaat bad in comparison- specially since both couples understand each other well enough without any generation gap issues for the most part🙊

I mean, Yuan and Lili were in the same class at one point at least so they are probably the same age or 1 year difference at most. Qian and SP's friendship is through the landlord as far as i know so it's hard to say what their age gap is but it's probably quite close too.🙊

Yuan pretty much admitted he's trying the 21 day behavioral theory so that Qian can get used to their new "non-brotherly" dynamic 🙈

I bet you won't regret it 😊

It's worth a try at least - hope you enjoy it if you do get a chance to check it out
