That whole cliff scene and the torture — it was too much. It ruined what they had. I think when your partner…
What cliff scene did he do that to her what torture did he torture her? If anyone should ask for forgiveness its her after putting him and her in that perspective. But screenwriter have to make ML sniveling, spineless, apologetic and "all is my fault" lovesick ML. Honestly im so sick of dramas that turn like this
I also believe he has all right to be mad but he’s so fixated on the outcome that he never looks at any situation…
Mad at who? From moment he chose to abandon and blame his best friend for how many years and have audacity to ask to save him that is not a friend its just a person with shitty personality
I hate how they treat friendship. If someone wants to help or do help you, that doesn't mean you have to pay it…
Calling her the “cleaning lady” just because she helped him clean his room once—while he was injured—is a bit much. They’re just teenagers who have started to show affection for each other.
But if you’re trying to justify the mother’s behavior, which has been and continues to be destructive to both daughters, by blaming the father for being spineless and the mother for being “just a weak person,” those are nothing but excuses.
As far as I can see, it was the mother who persuaded Bei Yu to go back after she ran away to seek help from her parents. And what did the mother say to her? “Just grit your teeth—that’s life,” all for the sake of preserving family honor and avoiding embarrassment.
Even if the father has no spine to stand up or help, that doesn't excuse the mother for her behavior—or the mistakes she's made—and now she’s dragging her other daughter down a dark path as well.
And that slap… when poor Bei Yu had a miscarriage… my heart shattered. How could any mother do that, especially when it was so clear her daughter was drowning in pain and sorrow?
NOTHING CAN EXCUSE THAT TREATMENT AND BEHAVIOUR TOWARDS YOUR CHILD.
I'm hoping the show doesn’t just end with consequences and pain, but with a message that even deeply damaged relationships can begin to heal—with effort, empathy, and truth.
Im on ep.4 and really can't stand her mother. Even after learning that she was bullied at school her comfort words are just endure it! HELLO THAT IS YOUR OWN CHILD!!!
My (Complicated) Thoughts So FarOkay, Feud has officially consumed my brain, and I have thoughts. Big, tangled,…
Actually, if we’re looking at who started everything, it was HRY. Her constant interference with the mortal world is what triggered all of this—not the moment when BJS sealed her powers.
Let’s recap:
- She saved the servant child’s life (yes, the child tried to save her first), but remember that the rumors of her being a demon began after she saved him. You can see what I mean in the beginning of Episode 15, during her conversation with BJS.
What followed is where things really started going wrong—what you rightly called unilateral decisions. Or rather, multiple unilateral (and selfish) decisions made without considering BJS.
- When that child grew up, BJS told her it was time to let him go and live his life. But HRY kept him as a housekeeper without even discussing it with BJS.
- Then, when the grandson of that same housekeeper (Meng Changqin) was about to be sentenced to death, she left her husband without a word to save him—again interfering in mortal affairs.
- Later, HRY returned to BJS, only to abandon him again the moment they reunited, breaking her promise once more by interfering to save Meng Changqin.
- Again, some time later, she came back and promised that it would be the last time. You can see this in the first five minutes of Episode 15. BJS even warned her that Meng Changqin would bring danger to her. And yet—she broke her promise again, left her husband, and went on a rampage with Meng to kill the dragon.
This time, she wasn’t just interfering with mortals—she got involved in immortal affairs as well.
She knew that killing the dragon would anger the heavens and likely result in severe punishment. But she went ahead anyway, without discussing anything with her husband.
After breaking her promises so many times, how could BJS be expected to keep trusting that she wouldn’t do it again?
That’s when BJS sealed her powers and chose to take the punishment in her place—not knowing she was pregnant.
Everything that happened to her after that was a result of her own actions, which made her an easy target for the mastermind orchestrating everything behind the scenes.
And instead of seeking BJS to demand answers or tell him about the child, she once again made a unilateral decision—resurrecting the child and seeking revenge on the one person who had done nothing but love her.
Ps : - Long long essay a) This Songhe County is clearly an illusion I feel because in Ep 17 Zhang Suan and Fan…
I believe BJS knows it's all an illusion and part of her setup. That’s why he isn’t really trying to connect too much with his two friends, and he doesn't even attempt to save Lin Fan from the fire.
In Episode 18, you can clearly see his reaction when the child says his new name is Lin Shi’an. Also, after he uses his power to save the child and HRY asks if he's okay, the way he looks at her tells me he knows what’s going on—he’s just playing along to see how far she’s willing to go with this revenge.
