Yes, along with the backstory of Ziqi's mother and father that is to come. The bracelet arc serves so many purpose

I also felt it was a bit too short T.T but it healed my bleeding heart anyway. I would be happy with some bonus later on, but still satisfied nonetheless that the bracelet arc is over

No offense but the magical object and life and death/sacrifice dilemma are the same type of plot devices that have existed for ages. The bracelet arc wasn't lovely to watch but it sure was needed anyway. However it would have been presented, the viewers would still have some complaints as that arc wasn't really all sunshine and rainbows

I was legit crying, heartbreak for MM and then happiness when they finally hugged huhuhu I will sleep now while stopping at ep 20 as it is such a great episode. Very short but the best!

Omg legit got teary eyed at the hug!

As much as the last 2 episodes were heartbreaking , we honestly needed the episode with the bracelet showcasing its powers because as haveninmuse said below, it ties to the story of ZQ's mom. It's not some useless angst. Now we know the full extent of the bracelet's powers and we can easily understand the backstory that is to come having seen firsthand what it has done to our leads. With this writer, there is purpose in nearly every detail

Do they have a photoshoot already? Didn't see this one yet

It's more like there's no breaking out of character moment yet for MY and LFY. Whereas for MS, his moment came at the end of ep 7. That's when he broke out of his novel character and started coming to life. For MY and LFY, they are still pretty much their novel personas - good, understanding, greater good > personal desires, blah blah that's why MY is still doing the noble idiocy trope. We still have 13 episodes to go so hopefully we do get to see them coming out alive and feel like real people like MS

And the first 10 episodes are now also available on Netflix on the countries it's available in

A very nice read! I will agree that while episodes 18-19 are heavy, I loved watching them anyway, especially when MM keep trying to reach out and turn back to Ziqi despite the bracelet on her.

For real. I keep thinking how good (as a person) the marquis is. It's just that MM already has someone she likes. I really like the writer more now because of characterization of the side characters. Even the princess, even though I find her the more annoying compared to the marquis, her character actions are understandable. Her motivations are clear and if this were a story on her POV, she would have won Fuyi over in the end. This writer is really showing what it means for "everyone is the hero of their own story" - side characters or main characters, no exception.

Esther was the one who said she'll drag wyx to escape room if they'll reach 30k

Think of it as ripping the band-aid off. Now we can look forward to healing with our hearts with the previews

Omg legit. Could not have said that better

It's the first time I finished watching the episodes with a freaking heavy heart. No warmth at all. Huhu but I'm glad the previews cured it right away 😭

There's a good comment from someone above. It's like an intentional dig at the bad writing of the novel. The main couple of the novel were together because the story says so. Their romantic scenes are romantic because the story says so. Whereas compared to the leads of our actual story, the development is going well. It's a meta commentary on bad writings.

Agree! Previously, when the preview doesn't include the leads that's when developments between the leads happen

I love your dp lmao

As funny as ep 15 was, how did they go from there to the preview of ep 18? Huhu

ep 15 so funny lol when cuicui caught them under the incense effect hahaha
