T.S.Johnson

It's not that serious. I'm eating lunch so scrolling around social while I'm doing so.

One last thought: That move by Madam Yu utilizing Miss. Wu seemed out of character. That was lazy and sloppy and she would know FL wouldn't have gone for that. That's some mess her daughter in law would do. I expect better from her - and by better I mean more calculating and diabolical. Not simple-minded ish.

I need to stay off Twitter. lol. I'm reading quotes from the leads about their character (ML in particular) and yeah...show about to be on some bullshit these last 10 episodes after the wedding. AND somehow decide to ruin the whole premise of the show. Like Royal Betrothal with that ridiculous ending. SMH. There's a book people. There's. A. Book.

This. And that would have been fine. I don't need 36 episodes of that. lol. Like Ashes to Crown was what 26-28 episodes. Just episode after episode of BS but it was short lived so okay. lol/smh

And neither needed to be written into the script. We've already done this once in Ganlin. We don't need a repeat.

So apparently this is a quote from the writer:

"Tingyun grows as she gains. Zhao Ling grows as he loses”

Yeah so. Looks like we on that bullshit. lol. Because OF COURSE our mains have to suffer to prove some f*ckass point. C-dramas just can't help themselves with the suffering for suffering sake BS.

Apparently it's just gonna get more ridiculous. lol

Yep. And I'm not here for it - 'cause why?????

It's the SMl and SFL - Madam Yu's son and Yake.

I'm almost positive there's another separation arc coming. I've suspected for awhile based on some behind the scenes stuff, but someone on Twitter more or less confirmed it. And that to me was just extra stupid b/c why???? Like haven't they been through enough? I'm fine with political intrigue. Push and pull. Win some and lose some....but you gotta mess around with the couple too???

Naw. lol. My tolerance for that kind of thing is limited if I feel it's just unnecessary drama. However I will be on here to read your venting lol.

Totally sucks if true. I'm gonna wait it out and see - 'cause I'm not watching that live. lol. That'll just piss me off. I'll come back once the tides have turned. They've already been through plenty...no need to pile on.

- Emperor makes him kill his best friend
- Loses his support
- Almost gets divorced (I think there is another separation)
- All with Yu family shenanigans to boot.

Just drama and loss after loss. SMH.

Yes

So I think I"m gonna pause this after the wedding b/c reading around it looks like they are gonna drag the couple through the mud for...reasons. Like it's okay to let the main couple win before the series ends. They don't need to be miserable and have to deal with adversity after adversity to make the story interesting. Normal obstacles are fine, but reading around the couple deals with some truly heinous ish and with 10-ish episodes left after the wedding I'm gonna be over it if I gotta watch 8 episodes of loss just to get a "win" in the last two episodes.

So where do we think Miss Wu ends up?

Does Madam Yu bring her in the house in hopes she helps her son forget the FL?

So is Madam Yu's favorite past time screwing with her daughter -in-law? lol

I mean she gave you a grandson and it's been five years and you STILL find ways to screw with her. SMH.

Also now that she realizes her silly son has a crush on the FL she wants to help her daughter-in-law keep her man. Maybe if you hadn't sidelined her for years you wouldn't be here. Being constantly petty has its consequences.

Preview of episode 21 showing Zhao Ling getting yelled at...looks like about Ms. Wu...lol. Ol' Girl had her hands on her hips and everything.

lol

I don't know where she ends up...but I think she's gonna make a play for ML.
