Great that you pointed that out... Indeed he was a coward, even after he ^killed^ her, he mourned her deeply,…
Him killing himself wouldn’t change anything at this point. Best role he can get is becoming A’Li’s pawn in her chess game to get the justice for herself, her family and poor Jiang Li.
Ok. I can’t believe I’m the one who says this but I kind of pity Shen Yurong. I was a first one in line to suspect him of being evil psycho. But!
His actions are not any less horrible because of that but I surprised myself with thinking about him not being THAT bad of a person, just horrible coward.
Knowing his background, how he was manipulated by his family and then targeted by psycho princess, I believe he really didn’t have that much of a choice. Of course, he could spare FL’s life and e.g. try to hide her. He didn’t, because he’s a coward. Not so smart either (apparently). He didn’t really have that much to say about her being set up in adultery as it was done by his mother.
I want him to get his karma back but I’m not so sure anymore if I want him dead. I’ve seen some trailers showing he’s going to get kind of a redemption arc, also not so sure about it but let’s see how it’s going to be served. Fingers crossed for the screenwriters to do not mess it up.
I was exactly thinking the same how she didn’t understand why kind of person he was. She just didn’t want…
Covert narcissists are really hard to deal with. They’re masters of manipulation acting as nice people very well and when you’re realizing who are you dealing with, it’s usually too late and you’re in full victim mode.
Studying psychology but still can’t read people At least she’ll have a support system when she is ready to…
People who study psychology often have some problems themselves. That’s my experience from studying in this field 😅 Some sentence said by one of the professors on the first year stuck in my head: „Have you seen anyone studying to be surgeon just to do an operation on themselves? No? Then don’t think that studying psychology will help you with your own problems. Go to therapy, seek help from outside”
I would add that Rose’s main focus was clearly child psychology, she was inspired with art project with autistic children, that’s why she wanted to follow this path.
Even if you would be the best therapist it wouldn’t make you resistant to toxic people and relationships. It may help but it’s not really how it works.
I was suspecting Ye Shijie knew her identity for a while now. He’s the smartest student, so it totally makes sense. Shen Yurong was kinda obvious, if he wouldn’t notice that was her all along, he would be extremely dumb.
One thing that bothers me about fl! Why is she tolerating these! she should have made complaints, she should have…
It’s quite realistic about Rose. That’s she’s hiding the fact how unhappy she is. From my own experience, when you’ve been in a toxic relationship for a long time, you’re stripped from your self confidence and isolated from others. FXW’s manipulation makes it even worse, I’m guessing she would have to admit her situation to herself first to start looking for help and make any decisions. That’s the hardest part to begin with, admitting that you’ve waisted many years on someone you don’t love and haven’t really known.
30-40%? In my opinion is 100%. He does everything to put her into a cage, to make her penniless and depending…
100% agree with you.
Him coming to her and asking to break up was the manipulation tactic at the finest. Sure, he wasn’t THAT bad from the beginning, but the signs were there, from the beginning. He stalked her. Tricked her into living together. Lied to her - a lot. People with narcissistic tendencies wouldn’t be aware of doing bad stuff. They think they’re right and everyone should adjust. He’s probably not doing it with the evil thoughts in his mind. But he’s mentally disturbed and requires a help of a professional. The portrayal of covert narcissist is done very well here. It’s coming from deeply rooted and extremely low self esteem, not vicious needs.
Seeing his mother I am sure he didn’t have an easy childhood. But does it make any excuse for his actions? Definitely not. I can pity him, at most.
There are no villains born, they’re always made by the life circumstances. But if they don’t want to change or even see the problem then best you can do is run. Far away.
Yi Mei is actually lucky she have close person to offer her support with this emotional abuse from her husband…
This. I’m happy that she has such a supportive parents and brother. And there are Su Su and her ex boss. She’s really lucky, as there are indeed women who are staying in this kind of toxic relationships the whole life just because they see no hope.

And we have a first glimpse of FJM, her future soulmate. I’m happy we will finally meet him, seems like an interesting person.
