So at the beginning of ep 18, did she go to meet duke su voluntarily? And I didn't quite understand the conversation…
yeah, i think it was a post-mission date after they sucessfully pulled the ye business mission off together. and i think the convo may be that he wants her to trust him enough to tell him who she really is? but also he doesn't care because they care for each other so much and he can protect her like this
LMAO its so funny how XH and XFF's paths keep crossing, now they're both gonna be in huaixiang together cus he's investigating smth related to her dad... i will consider this their red string of fate hehehehe
This isn't slow burn romance, we got romance in like episode 17 lmao
imo this is slow burn for me, just as long as the leads don’t get together until way far into the show and there’s that push and pull and angsty tension for a bit when they both realize their feelings. tbh duke su is lowkey still denying his feelings for xff so i think this can categorize as slow burn
i need more slow burn angsty romance with a fast paced overarching plot recs like this cus i have never been able to binge through a historical cdrama until the double like how is it so insanely good 🙈🙈
still not getting over how he gently took the bow from XFF when she almost shot shen with an arrow and defended her with his life against THE princess wanning without fear of repercussions
AND THE FLOWER IN HIS HAIR SHUT UPPPPFJFKJF
"... it doesn't hurt to tell her"
DUKE SU LFMAO
