No. They're broken up. Exes. She has left him. Moved out. Returned his gifts and isn't speaking to him.

Can't get any clearer than that.

Ah yes. Its her fault for being deceived. Yikes.

Wasn't the 1% for YiChen in the novel?

We dont know yet. Shows not over.

I mean, it's easy to say he's just being logical when he's the one with all the power, the one making all the decisions, and he moves behind her back. Their relationship was built to fall apart based on those power dynamics alone. There's no respect, and she looks like she's nothing more than a chess piece he has fun with. 

Their business and personal lives are far too entwined for him to be dumb enough to think she didn't need to know if it would affect their relationship. 

When did she sabatoge before this? Did I skip an episode or something? 

I agree she should have confronted him, but ZD didn't really lie. In fact, she gave JX something HT was unwilling to do. The truth. Albeit a twisted jealous version, a truth her boyfriend couldn't seem to muster up the courage to do. 

With or without confronting him, she had reason to distrust him. What would change if she confronted him? He would only be being honest after he got caught. His actions would still be the same, and so would how JX feels about it. Nothing would change; the damage was done.

You literally asked how does their relationship give her a right to know. That is what I responded to.

Point me where I said JX is blameless? All I said was this started with HT hiding things and had he told her himself he could have prevented much of the fall out.

Instead he played himself, made his gf feel like a puppet and then lost her for it. Oh well.

I don't know? Why don't you tell me why people around HT believed JX had a right to know and that it should come from him? Why did he half heartedly try to tell her if she didn't need to or have a right to know?

Obviously. I never said she should have broken into his safe. But I guess they didn't want her to go the route of the book, which isn't any better. 

I was merely pointing out that she saw their relationship as over when she chose not to talk to him and instead went looking for answers herself. Add in her previously saying she wouldn't go to CH because that would be a betrayal. And what does she do?

You may see nothing wrong with it but the show obviously set it up as something wrong. If he did nothing wrong multiple people on screen wouldn't be concerned, XYX wouldnt have kept pushing him to tell, ZD wouldnt have had any ammunition, and his cousin wouldn't be able to throw it in his face later. Most importantly HT also wouldn't have hesitated if he thought he was in the right and hadn't been doing anything wrong.

Then he should not have gotten involved romantically with JX. Simple as that. How embarassing that even strangers and people who barely knew JX knew and cared more about how she'd react better than him.

Everyone around him knew how this would blow up in his face. But it also says a lot, does it not? He either could not trust JX enough to tell her or thought she wasn't worth being told. Every time she confided in him about Han Hai and he didn't tell her, it's like a slap in the face now.

I thought it was obvious that JX saw their relationship as done, which is why she did it. She didn't talk to him because she didn't believe in or trust him. In the book, JX even says that his arguments are always convincing. 

Both have faults, but it still comes down to HT decieving her. It was the straw that broke the camels back. He had ample time and multiple people telling him to be honest, and yet he allowed her to find out from the worst possible person.

She literally did not know his intentions. He hid them from her. 

It was not just one wrong thing. He hid an important piece of information from her for absolutely no justified reason. As I said, no one gets to claim it is just business after bringing their personal relationship into it. It's the reason the saying 'do not mix business with pleasure' exists. 

She obviously feels like she was foolish, and he was moving her like a chess piece on his board. They aren't in a balanced relationship, and that's why it's so easily fallen apart.

How many different people told HT that he needed to tell JX about Hanhai? Everyone knew how this would wind up, and don't tell me that he tried. Did he suddenly become weak and incapable of using his voice? 

The moment he chose to mix business and pleasure, he owed it to JX to tell her. Yet he did not. How must it have felt to hear it from ZD of all people? Of course, she's looking at their relationship and everything he did in both business and personal matters differently now. Every time she confided in him about how she felt about Han Hai, he said nothing was a strike against him or her trust in him. 

I don't like ZD, but she merely told the truth, and everything she said was something JX was already starting to think about.

The ex needs to be humbled. Like you were childhood friends but you were using her for your families benefit and to be close to the woman you were in love with, her sister. Gtfo if here dude.

Honestly he's one of my more dislliked characters because he's not supposed to be bad the way YooRa and her mom are. But to me he is just as trashy.

I know Yi Joo isn't being blamed for leaving the contract in the privacy of her own home, in her own bedroom, in her own drawer. 🙄

Cause it's her fault her ex broke in and invaded her privacy? She shouldn't have to feel like she has to hide things in her own home

If we are talking about dumb things .. some comments ..

I mean they shouldn't have to burn their own documents. That loser basically breaking in to their house for YooRa. It's whatever. I'm sure they'll come up with a good explanation and mom, daughter and ex will look dumb. Can't wait for him to realize he's being used and to get discarded like he did to YiJoo.

Part 2 I don't know her.

Well, I'll always have part 1.

Not to mention she barely knows this man. They're moving at warped speed but he agreed to a fake contract marriage. Her setting boundaries is her right. She didn't ask for any of the things he's been doing. issues won't go away over night considering the prople she trusted previously ... 🥴

I know obviously this show is fiction but there is just no way nothing happened to her while there. But GC said it best, its not her fault.
