Ahhh I see what you’re saying. Makes sense. I never looked at it this way until you mentioned it. I never blamed her for keeping the passageway a secret. I will have to go back and watch it again with these thoughts in mind. I don’t remember the relationship being as one-sided though. I remember a lot of scenarios when he had her back, defended her and worked with her to outsmart the schemers. Hmm. Interesting. And he was petty with the scholar 😂 And he was pretty stellar when her extended family turned on him as well.

Oh yeah absolutely 😂 I was looking through my list of completed shows and yeah. It’s definitely the norm 🤦🏼‍♀️

So is this story based on a novel? Does anyone know much about the romance in this one? The synopsis on this page doesn’t share a whole lot about the plot. Like do we know if there is gonna be a love triangle, or lots of deception / secret-keeping? Any intel on the ending?

Interesting, as in never saw the FL as the one who carried the relationship. Of course she did in the beginning because she was trying to win him over and keep her people safe, but I never perceived their relationship later on as unbalanced.

👀 I dunno why people always say this to me 😂 Legend of Shen Li, When Destiny Brings the Demon and Moonlight Mystique are a few xianxias off the top of my head that don’t follow these tropes. The blood spitting, however, is a thing 😂

Edit: I mean there’s minor secret keeping in LoSL as we talked about, but not a whole lot :)

Still with the secret-keeping and misunderstandings. Fun. The good times just keep coming 🤦🏼‍♀️

At least with Fated Hearts the SML was only in a few episodes with the FL in the beginning of the show and never again until… like the last episode lol. I wouldn’t compare the delusional SML in LITC to the one in Fated Hearts. There was never this much back and forth in FH, and I wouldn’t even classify FH as a love triangle for how little they interacted. Just my two cents 🤷🏼‍♀️

She is honest with Feng Suige and tells him :) They’re truly a wonderful couple.

I do find myself a lot less invested in the second couple and much more interested in the main couple.

Yeah, that’s sometimes the issue I have with some historical Chinese shows. I think that was some of my issue with LotFG being ‘preachy’ at times. Having the FL tell a group of women that “they can do anything a man can do” probably wouldn’t fly in that day and age.

I am curious as to what you mean? It’s a love story, so naturally they will develop feelings for each other.

I dunno. the only thing I can think of is poor internet connection / cell coverage that doesn’t have the bandwidth for 4k graphics? 🤷🏼‍♀️

👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

I really like her! I like both of them and their acting is spot on 👌🏻

Happy ending!

I just started watching at am halfway through episode 8. OH MY GOOOODD her first experience sleep walking 🫣

Agreed!

That was my thought 😠

I know how dare he say stuff like that 🫠

This ML is the greenest of green flags ❤️
