I wouldn't really call it them using a rebirth plot as I read the novel and this was a part of the novel so they're staying true to the source material. Though this isn't the typical rebirth where its like a character went back to the past or, reincarnated as someone else. This is more like a soul merge. Hence I vaguely remember the author explaining that the FL is like a new or different person. She's a combination of SXH and GQZ.

I do see why people might be tired of the rebirth trope but we need to remember that a lot of these dramas are based on novels that came out years ago at a time when this trope was popular. And the novels were also popular, resulting in many of them being chosen for adaptation. So ig people see multiple dramas like this and get tired of them.

I get what you mean, but this is based off a web novel that's been out for years and at the time it was released, these tropes were popular.. And I doubt it would make sense for the drama adaptation to fully change vital parts of the story. Though I understand it's your preference.

As someone who's read the novel, I'm not gonna spoil but it definitely wasn't a plot device to get the FL to realise her love for him. He was poisoned before they even met. Tho idk if things will be different in the drama. But regardless, it was a happy ending.

ummm idk how to feel

Put a spoiler tag

I'm so happy to see comments like this. I've been seeing some ZX apologist comments and I'm like??? How can you feel sorry for him lmaoo. He doesn't deserve it

omg I thought I was alone in hoping for Kong Xichen and Sun Shuo. I feel like they'd have been so good together😭. But yes she's also my fav

I don't think there was an exact moment. I think for him it was more of a combination of everything so far that made him come to the realisation. And as we saw, that realisation took a while cuz he kept trying to deny the fact he was falling for her and whenever he was finally going to try to accept it, he would remember his dad and brother and the grudge against the Qiao's and feel like he was betraying them. So i think its more of when he was willing to fall for her regardless of the grudge he had. Which i think was in the ep where he asked Wei Yan if he could fall for her.

While I absolutely loved this drama along with many others, there were some people who disagreed with some decisions made by some characters. The thing though, is that their decisions were understandable based on their personalities and past experiences (in my opinion). So my advice would be not to view their actions from what you think you'd do in a specific situation but instead from the characters pov.

They're not actually alive. Well, except Fu Yun Xi. I think it's just to show that they're still with them even though it's not physically. For Fu Yun Xi, we know while his poison was cured, he'd already been poisoned for too long, so no one knew how long he'd live. Which is why he's also standing on the side of the dead at the end. Probably to show he's living on 'borrowed time'.

Kinda wish they had stuck to the novel. Though ik they had to cut out some scenes, they've still changed so much and it just doesn't seem as good as the novel. It feels like so many things are missing. I was really excited that this was being made into a drama but now I'm not really enjoying it as much anymore.

They changed a lot from the novel. In the novel, Wei Zhi didn't have an AI scandal. She just happened to watch one of Shan Cong's competition videos and decided to make a comic on snowboarding.
Jiang Yiming is also very different. Unlike the series where he always liked her, he was more nonchalant and cold to her in the novel.
I think her parents are also a bit different. While they still tried to plan out her life and wanted her to marry Jiang Yiming, in the novel when the mum finds out about Wei Zhi having a boyfriend she initially doesn't believe it so she didn't take it seriously. Until she ran into Wei Zhi and Shan Cong outside Wei Zhi's apartment in Nancheng when he was dropping her off. From the ep 17 preview, her reaction in the show seems different from the novels. While she still had her concerns, Wei Zhi was able to talk to her civilly. Also, when Wei Zhi's parents finally formally met Shan Cong the atmosphere was way better. It was more like them asking him about his family and what he planned to do in the future. So I can't predict what'll happen in the series anymore.

Honestly idk how to feel about the changes. I think one of the changes i don't really like is how Shan Cong chose to return to snowboarding. In the novel it was way more emotional and fit the situation more. I feel like they didn't really show that turmoil or process in the drama. But I like the change in Jiang Yiming

This is really random. But during the wedding scene, I kept thinking of the song Daylight by Taylor Swift and coincidentally, it fits them so well. Now I'm going to think of Shen Xifan and He Suye anytime I listen to that song from now on.

Ohh, i guess i didn't pay enough attention. Sorry abt that

No it's a deleted scene from an earlier episode. They've already work these outfits

She'll admit it after they find her. Well after being threatened

They'll find out after they find YBC
