Big_Red_1011

there’s a six year age gap — in 2011 leads are 27 & 21 in ep. 1. Later on, when she graduates, they are 28 & 22

The problem with FP/ItNoB is they made two seasons (30+24 episodes) instead of one 40-episode seasons. So a lot of people were frustrated by the second season where writers kept coming up with ridiculous ways to keep the leads apart. Like you can start on Ep. 16 (of 24) and be basically okay.

In the novel events of book 2 take place over a span of 10 years so there may be some small jumps. Plus, this shows development of Chinese solar energy industry (China now makes 80-90% of solar panels and components).

Ahhh… I think 2ML in Flourished Peony / In the Name of Blossom is hard to beat. That was a masterful performance from Miles who usually plus good guys.

Dual boss — as the shareholder of the company and as the wife 😁🥰

You know the character is universally disliked, when comments section agreed on a nickname (SnakeRong 🐍), lol

Spiritual successor to the ML in The Best Thing :)

Leads’ parents in You Are My Glory (same author) were also very nice :)

No one likes him here :) But soon FL will graduate and you won’t see 2ML so often

SnakeRong, yes.

SnakeRong and her low-key evil friend too.

Hopefully, that will be enough for FL to completely get over him and get with ML :)

After FL starts her job, it’s mostly ML+FL with a sprinkle of 2ML every know and then.

Her family is “new money” who became wealthy while FL was a kid (unlike ML who is “old money”). Her family’s company owns 49% of the solar panel plant that she’s working at (she didn’t know about that when she applied for a job there). ML calls her his future boss because eventually FL will inherit her family’s company whereas ML is not in line to inherit his grandfather’s company (which owns remaining 51% of the plant) because that grandfather is on his mother’s side.
Also, no one at FL’s job knows her true background (other than ML) because she’s not flaunting it. She’s trying to earn everything without involving connections:)

Soon? 18-20? Maybe after the events teased for Ep. 17

haha… my list is a bit longer but I prefer to erase them from my memory 🫣

It seems like she was trying to point out that ML got exiled from HQ to a factory and that FL also ended up at a factory in a small instead of a fancy job at Shanghai. Of course, she had no idea that both ML & FL specifically CHOSE to come to that place — it was definitely NOT because they lacked other options 😁

Correct, in the long run FL might be more wealthy than ML (once she inherits the company), but I was just trying to mention that ML probably had a privileged upbringing because he’s “old money” whereas FL’s family is “new money” so she may have had a more normal upbringing.

Just ignore those commenters. They may be bots/haters — I have many accounts like that blocked and maybe that’s why I don’t see those discussions 😁

To be fair, her family only became wealthy later on so she did experience a normal upbringing. It’s the ML whose family is even more rich and has been rich for a long time (his grandfather runs the main huge company).
