Man, I took a look at the comments and... what kind of collective meltdown is this? 😂 People seem more stressed…
I won't talk about the collective meltdown lol, but to your first comment about chemistry. For me, the two leads have an angsty, flirty, unsaid/almost forbidden tension that is hard to peel my eyes from the screen. The way Chen Yi (aka SWL's) adams apple bobs up and down every time Miao Jing flirts and their eye contact, has me FANGIRLING. I think because they're in the 'confused situationship' atm, it's not giving you the 1000% chemistry you're looking for. I don't know about others, but ep 17 DID that for me. And then some. I think I may have rewatched that fight + kiss as many times as the POJ bath scene LOL.
Can't wait for all their cute/steamy scenes when they're officially OFFICIAL and kicking butt behind the scenes too. lol
I agree. I think they were using the friend issue to show that Chen Yi is secretly very wealthy and had always…
Bo was really an excuse for Chen Yi to give the Billard hall so that he could move to Haoyun. He gave MJ a lame excuse but it’s 1 to protect her, and 2 to uncover the truth as he is the wolf for the cops.
I'm dropping it; I got fed up after 15 episodes. Ugh, I can't stand the situation between those two anymore—if…
It's a shame because ep 16 and 17 is where they start opening up and their relationship unravels. It's definitely worth holding on a few more eps, I promise you!
Episode 17 was SOOOOOO good. The angst, PTSD, the tension, them fighting for each other. Chen Yi giving into Miao Jing's dare and they both melted like putty.
My hunch is that since we’re almost at the half- way point, they’re going to give into their suppressed feelings and get back together shortly. Especially since his back hug changed the dynamic more than a “random lapse whilst unwell”. But as their love transpires, layers of secrets and untold truths come to light. And Mr Zhang etc try to use Miao Jing as bait for Chen Yi to act. The bone to the wild dog.
Still no sign of the 2ML though? Besides a random video call.
SHE IS DRIVING HIM UP THE WALL AND IAM HERE FOR I🤣🤣T
The whole house selling + waterworks + I’m unemployed + throw out my high school photo literally GOT UNDER HIS SKIN! poor boy Chen Yi thinks he’s boss but little Missy Miao Jing is playing him like a fiddle 😂😂😂
A lot of people say that but I actually prefer that it didn't dwell on the fire scene for too long. They will uncover more of what happened in the 'present' 2011.
Wen Jie is starting to clue on to their not-so-platonic-siblingship to it being more of a romantic relationship. Kang An, who is usually more of a clueless male is catching on too. ahha. It's so obvious when Chen Yi and Miao Jing are so sweet together! Even Linda can sense it...
It's called they both matured, and likely they made it a year later so MJ was 18 and more *legal, making it more appropriate. Feelings fester and grow. He's a hot blooded young men in his prime too...so these things are not linear...
No he doesn't. I dunno how to spoil you. He's just like how he is in the first episode.
I think it was one of those "when time is missed" moments in life. He really wanted to, but when he got blocked by his dad and things happened (death, scams), he missed that opportunity in life. Which ends up as to why he works in the "club", and how their futures transpire the way they do.
I love how little or maybe no filter here. very realistic and fit the vibe.
It gives homage to the time period but also less makeup/filters mean you ACTUALLY see their expressions more etc. Plus most actors have flawless skin anyway, so its good to see them as real people. My grievance was the mechanic scene where SWL is in a t-shirt and his arm is so skinny >.<
Haven't watched this yet. Will there be any time skip?
It goes from 2002 through to 2003 and then quite swiftly through 2004-2005. Which is where the CP part ways. They reconvene in the 'present' which is 2011. Miao Jing is about 25 years old then, and Chen Yi would be 27-28.

And in true form, the awkwardness post kiss xD
Overall, she's not a great mom.

Did his dad do something to Miao Jing....? 😰
Or was he referring to his own abuse from his dad? Novel readers enlighten me...
