the eps r short & maybe cause of that,…

the eps r short & maybe cause of that, this is really addictive & u want to binge watch it - pity it's still airing (cause after this i am stuck until the next update). but fun & funny all the same. didn't expect the twist where Ga U Su was more annoyed he wasn't the lead in Eui Ju's BL - in spite of his aversion to the genre. even though the invasion or privacy is mad in this drama, even before he knew that Eui Ju was his student,. he felt confidante in just going up to her & demanding she allow him access to her phone & now her laptop. it's mad. 6 more eps to go - wonder where the writer is gonna take us... can't wait to find out

Eui Ju is such a quirky character, one minute…

Eui Ju is such a quirky character, one minute she is down the next she's back up marching to her own beat. i love that about her. me in her place i would be plotting how to get back at Ga U Su, regardless of what he thinks is right, he really is being mean to her & belittling her cause she can't do as he requests, moronic petty behavior unfitting of an adult let alone a teacher IMO. putting her in that class was a b.s. move - if she only got 4 points, that means she needs to start from scratch, here he is pushing her into deep waters & wanting her to swim all on her own, when she doesn't get the basics & when she can't.... he is then belittling her?!? that's freakin twisted & mean - sorry but he aint fit to be a homeroom teacher.

New journeys

Rui gets info that helps provide evidence against Wei. He is still Mr Teflon so his wife was brought in. She saw the baby pictures and heard his family speech to ZhenZhen. When she tricked him about bug and getting paid he used a similar argument with her about going to Australia and being one big happy family. 😝 This man has no shame. Auntie was finally convinced when she saw and heard his actions with her own eyes and ears. But I have to give her blame for indulging him and covering for him. She is far from guiltless about what happened to Purong. Her laissez faire approach with his handling of Purong has no excuse. It is a wonder Ji and MiYu could rescue it. There was entirely too much time giving ZhenZhen’s backstory to gain sympathy for her bad choices. This wasn’t wanted or needed for story. We see the last two get hauled off in handcuffs but they didn’t say what happened to the baby which is the only part of ZhenZhen’s story I was curious about. MiYu gets in at EHL and is heading off to Switzerland to study abroad. Mr Tan is heading back to HongKong. Diva Duan will be vacationing in the Maldives and Rui is heading for places unknown. It is not specifically clear that chef is staying but I am pretty sure she and Ji will be the ones left in the new and improved Purong. Ji is waiting a year and half and if she doesn’t come back, he will fly to her. So why didn’t we get an epilogue with that instead of a young ZhenZhen deserted by her mother and standing in the rain? Even Nie more healthy and starting new would have had more relevance than her history. It was nice seeing MiYu’s mom running the kitchen and bossing the family around. MiYu did a good thing there. I really wasn’t needing the romance in the first place. But if we had to deal with the push and pull of that, why have EVERYBODY amicably go their own way with the if the fates allow speeches given at the end. We could have had more hotel adventures a visit to Switzerland included or less episodes of romance that may never be. I love her character and that she wants to see how far she can go, but as I sit here thinking about the episode I just watched I have to ask Why? They all agreed their story stopped there but it was open ended for everybody, which I would have been perfectly happy with had they not pushed romance and then left it for fate if their paths ever crossed again. Would I recommend? With a warning label😂 In spite of how they ended things I still love her character and cheer for her to go far and fly high.

The bond grows

My favorite part of this episode was definitely Wen Kexing's reaction to Zhou Zishu's tactics! Earlier on, Zhou was obviously being extra friendly to Cao Weining—using many of the same lines Wen had used on him—just to make him jealous! The look Zhou gave made it clear that it was super-intentional. 🤭😏Later, when Zhou tells him he's treating him as a friend, Wen quietly says to himself, "You're my soulmate", while watching him walk away. I love their dynamic and how the show is building the relationship between the two male leads. ❤️On top of all that, Zhou finally showed parts of his true identity to Wen during that encounter with the Window of Heaven guy. I really hope we see Wen’s identity revealed very soon. I am practically 100% sure he’s the Ghost Valley Master! 🤨👆

Drama at its finest!

I couldn't really understand which sect was behind that whole "Hunger Games" situation at the beginning with the wedding! I saw people who had deals with the Scorpion Sect and others with Ghost Valley... so what the heck was happening there? 🤔As for our main guys, it seems like whatever Wen Kexing’s plan is, it's starting to come into motion. He is still flirting with Zhou Zishu, and he gets so jealous and protective whenever anyone else tries to touch his "precious friend". 🤔😏🤭Also, Gu Xiang met the young hero, Cao Weining, and it really seems like the guy might be romantically interested in our girl. We'll see! 🤭Overall a nice episode, though it didn't feel like the plot moved forward much, and I was still quite confused by a few parts. Let’s see if the next episode brings some more clarity... 🤔

The masks removed and the ones still on

This episode was so good! Zhou Zishu’s mask finally came off when he fell into the water, only for Wen Kexing to pine over him even more. The mystery around the Glazed Armor is definitely growing, and Wen Kexing is clearly a major player in this game. 🤭🤨I still suspect him to be the Leader of Ghost Valley, but this episode made me wonder—could there be multiple sects within the Valley, with Master Wen leading only one of them? And then there is the Scorpion King. He also looks like someone leading an outcast sect; could he be from the Valley too? I’m still not quite sure how the whole system of sects, clans, and valleys works, but I hope I'll get there eventually. 😔Now we know the Window of Heaven is involved and heading to the Heroes Summit. If Zhou is there with his real face showing, won’t they recognise him? Either way, I love seeing the bond between the two leads growing. Zhou is finally smiling, joking, and even being playful at times! And I have to wonder... what exactly are Master Wen's plans with those fake Glazed Armor pieces? 🤔

Are we getting clues on Wen Kexing's true identity?

I am quite sure now that Wen Kexing is the same guy we saw in episode 1 wearing the red robe. The walnuts and the way he squeezed that beggar's throat—it all lines up. He probably needs that "variable" he mentioned earlier for the Glazed Armor he’s looking for. Of course, I could always be wrong, but at the moment I am more than 100% sure this is it. 👆As for the rest—that Backfire Music Skill (or whatever the name was) means that Zhou Zishu is way stronger than many in the world even with the seven nails in his body. I wonder what will happen when they learn each other's secrets. And my question remains: can the seven nail punishment be reversed? Can they be taken out? 🤔

More questions and some flirting

​It looks like there are multiple sects after the boy in Zhou's care. I wonder why he's so special? Is it just because he's the son of the Mirror Lake sect's leader, or is there something more to him? 🤔​Wen Kexing is proving to be quite the stalker and a major flirt. I honestly wonder if Zhou secretly likes the attention or not. It would definitely make me feel uneasy to be followed and stared at that way! 🤭​During the night, Zhou had those black veins running again, so I’m convinced now that it's tied to the specific time of day. I'm waiting to see an explanation of how this works, if there will be any, of course. 🤨
