So glad He Ran's mom gave the green light on their relationship. This part was well done because there was a level of respect and maturity on both sides during that phone conversation. Last thing He Ran didn't need during this difficult time was for two of her most loved ones to not get along.
Question about Epi 13!When XH goes to get watermelon for HR, she finds a picture of a flower in one of his flower…
That's the epiphyllum flower. It rarely blooms, and the one he's been tending hasn't bloomed EVER. This plant can take up to several years to bloom. He Ran said to Xiao Han if the epiphyllum blooms that night, then let it be a sign for them to start their relationship. It bloomed and he took a photo. That's why after that night, his demeanor changed towards her - more talkative and smiling more.
I just created an account so I could come comment on here haha I’m obsessed! I love these romantic melodrama…
Glad you're enjoying the show ! I remember when I was compelled to create my MDL account for a drama I was obsessed with a couple of years ago. Totally know how you feel. =)
The scene where Xiao Han says he loves her isn't really removed. You'll see it in ep 23 from his flashback.
She said she wasn't renting it anymore in the same or the following episode.
You're right. That just shows I'm not as focused when it's not He Ran and Xiao Han together on screen. I guess He Ran not using this apt is another part that's not explained by the drama, just like a few other mysteries: Xian Han's niece visiting by herself from a flight required trip, and how He Ran gets a new set of cloths the next morning when she stays at his place overnight without bringing a luggage.
He Ran's Dad painted it. Han Yu's uncle was trying to protect the rightful owner of the painting, which in this…
Yes, I'm also sure she swapped it. She replaced the fake one with the authentic one. Han Yu's uncle helped He Ran hide her secret about Xiao Han because he knew she must like Xiao Han a lot base on her gifting such a valuable painting to him without his knowledge.
my interpretation is that Mr. Han realized what was happening - that someone had taken the painting from the shop…
Her dad wrote a famous quote from Victor Hugo's Les Miserables: “The first symptom of true love in a man is timidity, in a young woman, boldness. This is surprising, and yet nothing is more simple. It is the two sexes tending to approach each other and assuming each the other's qualities.” and "Limerence Twenkle(French)" (Limerence Twinkle in english) on the side.
Limerence is a strong obsession/infatuation for someone in which all you think about is that person, almost like a form of addiction with intense euphoria.
The connection is He Ran's state of mind and how she feels for Xiao Han. Her crazy interest in him is like a limerence; it's inexplainable but the desire to be with him is so strong nothing else matters.
Xiao Han isn't acquainted with He Ran's dad. It just so happens that he sees this copy and purchases it. He Ran probably takes this as a sign from her dad or a higher being. A sign to validate her pursuing him, and that she should be "bold" like in the quote.
Can anybody tell me about the significance of Xiao Han's framed flower picture that is hanging on the wall. Who…
He Ran's Dad painted it. Han Yu's uncle was trying to protect the rightful owner of the painting, which in this case was Xiao Han and He Ran. The first time the uncle saw the painting at Xiao Han's haircutting shop, it was already the authentic version, but he didn't exactly know how it got there. Xiao Han said he got it from a cheap place, meaning it was a fake when he bought it. That was why he made a call to have someone looked into Xiao Han and possibly the painting. In the arts world, there's normally a trail on each famous painting such as who owns it now and the value. It would have shown that the painting wasn't sold on records and still remains with the family. Since the uncle isn't stupid, he probably worked it out in his head that He Ran had something to do with why the authentic painting was in the shop.
The cinematography of this drama is beautiful, I love the colors and the backgrounds, the elements on screen,…
I thought the telling of time and locations in general was good. I was able to work out that they met in the summer of 2017 in Qiongzhou/XiaoZhou/Hainan. She found a Polaroid photo dated 2017 August the night the epiphyllum flower bloomed. She went to college in Sept 2017 in XiJing (he saw her letter of admission). She visited him in his hometown near Tibet over Lunar New year, normally Jan/Feb 2018. Summer of 2018, which is as of ep 21, she relapsed and moved back to Xijing area for treatment. There was a scene he said "happy birthday, it's been a year since we met" or something along that line.
As of the latest ep 21, he doesn't know yet. He probably suspects she's not feeling well but doesn't know she…
Yup, plus making us wait 4 days for it, too. My only excuse for them is maybe the director is having a hard time deciding which ending to give us since there are 3 different endings.🤔
Maybe he thought she needs an easy way out. We know he's really not over her since he came looking for her just…
XiJing is a 3 hour flight from Qiongzhou/Xiaozhou/Hainan. In ep 11, there's a scene where she asked her mom and neighbors to take her to the airport. He didn't just randomly pick XiJing to work at the flower shop by the hospital. He knew she was in XiJing, and was hoping to be closer to her yet giving her space.
The scene where Xiao Han says he loves her isn't really removed. You'll see it in ep 23 from his flashback.
