It may not be your cup of tea, but it’s definitely mine.
What FanXiao did was not love. It was cruelty disguised as obsession. Using Professor Huang, Bai Ting, and even YouShuLang’s own brother to corner him was already unforgivable. Installing cameras everywhere, even in the bathroom, stripped him of the last thing a human being owns. His dignity. His safety. His right to exist without fear.
YouShuLang’s life has never been easy. He grew up as an orphan, scavenging for food, surviving on hope alone. He was lucky to be adopted by a kind woman, yet even then he was surrounded by cruelty. Bullied by people his own age and judged by adults who should have known better. Then his mother passed away, and he was left to stand on his own again.
Still, he endured. He studied. He worked. He built a life with his own hands. A career he was proud of. A small apartment that meant stability. A car that symbolised freedom. Every step forward was paid for with effort and pain. And then, in a single moment, everything collapsed. His career destroyed. His home sold. His car gone. Reduced to waiting for a bus, carrying the weight of a life that no longer felt like his own.
When he said, Fan Xiao, you won, I am tired, it shattered something inside me. Those words carried exhaustion, defeat, and a pain that comes from watching years of hard work disappear in an instant. It is the kind of tired that goes beyond the body. It is the tired of the soul.
YouShuLang, you have always been strong. Stronger than anyone ever had the right to demand of you. You stood tall even when the world kept pushing you down. And even now, broken and worn, you are still standing. We are all here with you. Because a heart that has endured this much pain deserves peace. And one day, the kindness you were denied will find its way back to you.
Only one episode to go. My Sundays will not feel the same once this series ends next week. I am really going to miss it and we truly need a season 2.
I don’t think Than cheated. He loves Akin so much.
There has to be more to this.
And I like the second couple, they are fun to watch.
FanXiao’s second elder brother offered him an enormous sum of money to frame FanXiao. $10 million baht. Enough to change a life. Enough to give him revenge. Enough to destroy the man who hurt him. Yet YouShuLang rejected it without hesitation. Even after everything FanXiao put him through, he still could not bring himself to ruin another person’s life. That is the kind of goodness that quietly breaks your heart.
YouShuLang was brilliant at studying, full of promise, yet he gave it all up to support his younger brother. He left his own dreams behind and ended up working in jobs far from his field just to survive. And what did he receive in return. Ingratitude. Hatred. A brother not even related by blood who despised him for being gay and blamed him for their mother’s death. Even so, YouShuLang was willing to sell his own apartment to help pay off that brother’s debts. Love, even when it is undeserved, seems to be his curse.
He helped his ex boyfriend LuZhen escape trouble with Ms Shi. Without YouShuLang, LuZhen would have been ruined. When Ms Shi asked LuZhen why he broke up with him, the tears said everything. That was his greatest regret. No excuses. No explanations. Just tears. Sometimes tears speak louder than any confession.
The most painful part is that YouShuLang helped the three people who hurt him the most. His ungrateful brother. His ex LuZhen. And the man he believed was his true love, FanXiao, who ended up wounding him deeper than anyone else. Life is unbearably cruel to kind people.
After all the sacrifices, all the quiet kindness, fate still struck him mercilessly. He discovered the truth on his own. That FanXiao was the one who molested him that night. The betrayal was unbearable.
When YouShuLang finally confronted FanXiao and started hitting him, it felt like years of pain exploding all at once. The punches were raw and desperate. Even more haunting was the detail that he used the gloves FanXiao bought him. FanXiao did not fight back. He did not dodge. He stood there and took every blow, letting YouShuLang release the anger he had carried for so long.
As for FanXiao, I know he is a red flag. Yet the cruel words he said about YouShuLang in front of his friends never felt entirely real to me. People often joke cruelly about the ones they love, hiding tenderness behind mockery. I believe his love for YouShuLang was real, even if he destroyed it with his own hands. After this episode, we see the truth of his family. A mother left to die. A brother trying to frame him and send him to prison. A broken home that shaped a broken man. It does not excuse his actions, but it explains the darkness he carries.
Just when YouShuLang quits his job and tries to walk away from FanXiao to protect himself, the cruelty continues. He has no idea that FanXiao orchestrated yet another plan with Professor Huang to deceive him again. Even in distance, the pain follows him.
Yet another devastating episode. My heart aches for YouShuLang, a man too kind for a world that keeps taking everything from him.
And I have finished my review. It may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it is definitely mine. We all have different tastes, and that is the beauty of loving different genres.

Fan Xiao is a tragedy walking on two feet. He watched his mother die in front of him, and the world never held him gently again. The light that should have guided him became something he feared, something that chased him into the shadows. He lies because he is scared. He manipulates because he has never known safety. He acts like a monster because no one taught him how to be anything else.
And that is exactly why his character is unforgettable. Without him, this story would not grip us the way it does.
Yes, they will reunite. Yes, they will be a couple again. But before that, I need Fan Xiao to truly feel what loss tastes like. I pity him deeply, but he still has to face the consequences of everything he put You Shu Lang through. Love cannot grow on untouched ground. Sometimes it needs to be shaken, broken, rebuilt.
A pause is not weakness. Sometimes distance is the only mirror that tells the truth. You only realise how much someone means to you when their absence becomes louder than their presence ever was.
If forgiveness comes too fast, the lesson disappears. Pain is not just suffering. It is a teacher.
It is like raising a child. When there are no true consequences, the message drifts away unheard. And so it is with love. For a bond to grow deeper, it sometimes needs a season of loss, a stretch of silence, a moment where both hearts realise what truly matters and what they cannot bear to live without.
