Yeah it looks like it might be before episode 20 - so yeah...

I was thinking the same lol

HA!

Basically. SMH.

It's gonna the classic Chinese Drama move of "Last 5 episodes have all the action" lol

Got to be.

The subs are too bad for me to stick it out. I was giving it to the midway point to see if they were going to be together or move the story forward in any significant way. But bad subs + disappointment, means I'll wait 'till it's done airing and all eps are on YouTube with better subs.

Ma'am we're almost 50 episodes in - that's not slow burn, that's non-existent. There are 11 episodes left and two major events left that have nothing to do with their confession. The "misunderstandings" are tonally inconsistent with what we know about the characters. Do you honestly believe the JCY from season one about the broken hairpin??? JCY called Chu a "broken fish mouth" for his telling DaFu everything THIS season and you think he wouldn't have said something about the broken hairpin???? C'mon it's bad writing plain and simple.

Well, at least some folk were satisfied.

Okay, so after the half-baked resolution, and them no closer to being together, and the atrocious subs it is time to let this one sit until it is complete. With that said I am genuinely baffled at the the decision to be over 40 episodes in and not have the leads together. What's the logic behind that??? The set was the first 32 - they payoff should be us enjoying them being together and overcoming the obstacles in the last 24. Oh well.

That does not count as "something more" lol. That's a "half-baked conclusion to an unnecessary story line so folk (hopefully) will not hate the ML" lol/smh

I mean yes...the entire board is opinions. Okay?

lol. I just don't really understand the logic of almost 50 episodes in and keeping them apart. Like, what's the point???? We had 32 episodes of them getting to know each other already.

This was a waste of two episodes in a 24 episode season. They established last season the need for a low cost pharmacy. They could have just built on that.

The writers could have wrapped this terrible story line up in one episode. Spending two episodes as an unnecessary story line just to justify her opening a low cost pharmacy is dumb and wasteful. So, since we know another separation is coming and so is a war, most of the "together" scenes that exist are likely gonna be in some sort of final episode/epilogue type deal. There just aren't enough episodes left for there to be too many that involve them being together. So they'll likely get together - he disappears - war - final/epilogue.

Yes. But the subs are absolutely atrocious. So while I got the impression he had found out relatively recently it was hard to parse for sure.

And none of that excuses what JCY did. Mudan isn't a child. She doesn't need him to protect her from herself. And if he knew the whole story (which changes nothing in my eyes) he should have told her.

Naw I went and watched the explanation. Still terrible.

This is NOT a good reason. lol/smh. This only works if the father was the one who was targeted. Not her mom. SMH. And that's still a strong maybe. It still just ends up being an unnecessary story line that ruins the show and keeps the couple a part.

And what great reason is that?
