Love in Between Episode 35

I know that there will be, "more to the story", and the writers will rebuild sympathy for ZQC, but it's hard to have any at this point because the scheme he has adopted seems so absurdly unnecessary - and in particular, unnecessarily cruel to Su Yun Luo - in order to accomplish his goals. He's exhibiting an arrogance in the way he's USING her instead of collaborating WITH her to accomplish the same goals that basically makes him an unlikeable piece of crap. The fact is, poisoning SYL and forcing Su Xuan to transfer the poison to himself was ultimately meaningless, since Su Xuan sacrificed himself to Jin Xu's blade. All that could have taken place _without_ ZQC acting like a total traitor and manipulating and hurting her so badly. Now, sure, I'm expecting he has some scheme to save Su Xuan, possibly due to some magic aspect of the transferred poison or whatever. But again, that probably _could_ have been done without deceiving and harming the person who loves him most in the world. Just stupid. ZQC acts like he's lost everything with his own impending death and the death of his father and behaves spitefully. But he's still has his sister and he still _could_ have had SYL for the remainder of his life. Meanwhile, because of ZQC's schemes, SYL truly at this point has lost everything. Her master - who she worked relentlessly for 10 years to save, is now dead and of course, she's lost ZQC, the man she wanted to love but has now done, to her perspective, truly despicable things. And oh, the only romantic alternative, the weak-minded pathetic Zhu Yan, has let himself turn all dark-side murderous psychopath. SYL has lost everything at this point of the story.
