Parting their ways

Ugly, filthy, disgusting... I already read that this description fits perfectly how their relationship was in the novel, but for this adapted version, in my opinion, it's a bit too harsh. They had many wonderful, joyful, and warm moments, and I personally can't discard or forget about them. But the break-up was needed. I know that. They had to get out of this on-and-off, back-and-forth loop they both were stuck in. 😔I was surprised that she hadn't said anything to him about Yuanzhu's death and hate that they still are not telling things to each other even after these six years in general. Like him, about the fact the board had found out about them… He chose not to tell her so she wouldn't leave him or Lime, but instead, she left both... And he doesn't even know how his efforts to step away from her life have been in vain (that is, if that didn't happen off-screen again). 😫P.S. For me, the most heartbreaking moment was when she wanted to take the dog, but it didn't want to go, and later it ran after her and Nian watched them together from a distance. I am sure he talked to the dog to make it run after her.

And there we go again....

And there it is — again with assumptions and jealousy caused by their own insecurities about their relationship... And, damn, Nian has turned into a stalker? Or just doing an occasional, yet time-wise coincidentally inconvenient check-up on his secret girlfriend/not-girlfriend Zhitao? 😕But to be fair, I think they both are not completely sure what they want from the relationship they have. On one hand, when they hear about other people's lives, they want something more serious, stable, and permanent, but then other times they want to keep it secret, and just have the comfort of physical intimacy with no other attachments... This is a little frustrating and very confusing at times. 😔But I am thankful for the ex-boyfriend and the sister in this episode. They added a little lightness to some scenes, which I enjoyed a lot. 🙏🙂‍↕️

The title of this episode describes it perfectly

I can't even express how proud and worried I am about Zhitao for what she went through to get the evidence, write a complaint about Dony, and defend other women who got abused by him... Her bravery and fear gave me goosebumps, and also broke my heart. And Kitty uniting with other women to stop Dony from chasing after Zhitao... 🥺But I am sad she chose not to tell any of that to Nain, at least the parts that involved her, but I kind of understand why, too... It is a very sensitive and not an easy topic to talk about with anyone, no matter how close the other person is. But Nain now thinks she doesn't trust him enough and even lied to him. 😥I can only hope that this won't cause any issues between our leads, but it looks like this could be the beginning of their ultimate breakup. And what else could I expect when there are just 7 episodes left? 🫣😔

Very packed with drama plots

Didn't like this episode at all. 😕Jiwon believed everything Yura said way too easily, without any doubt. At least she came to her senses about him later, but still, that felt a bit out of her character. 😔And then her mother suddenly appeared for a nice mother-daughter date, which actually was just to fish for goodies... I am certain Sumin put her up to this, and I was sad to see Jiwon getting hurt and disappointed by her mother once again. 😟And of course, a white truck — how could a modern K-drama exist without one of those? But Jihyuk will most likely be ok. He's protected by protagonist armor, and also, it's not his time yet, as it is supposed to be 10 more years before he dies, right?..... Right? 🫣The highlight was watching Sumin and Minhwan's miserable marriage and Mrs Yang getting medical help for her stomach cancer, but otherwise this episode was quite frustrating. Did the writers decide there was too little drama and then pack so much into one episode? 😥

Dony's stressing me out

I am more than certain that Dony did sexually abuse Kitty. He wants people to drink because then it's easier to get what he wants, and he didn't look too happy about Zhitao not wanting to drink and encouraging others to do the same if they didn't want to. 😔And I think he might want to also use Zhitao in some way, which is absolutely stressing me out. I know she's smart and sees through him, but I still worry. 🫣😟I really hope Nian, Lumi, and Tracy will be able to expose him before he manages to succeed with something terrible that would hurt our leads or the other people I care about. 🤞🙏P.S. Love Nian's relationship with the dog. 🙂‍↕️🤗

Consequences and gains

Uff, how fiercely and desperately she tried to protect him! I know she wants him alive to finish the script, but it as well could be because of some feelings she doesn't realise yet. They definitely have grown much closer by now... 😏And he has become such a devoted and protective husband. I love it! No one is allowed to harm her or insult her, because he would instantly handle them. Like when those people came to her house asking them to repay the debts. 😌 Only then, it was interrupted by Pei Heng. Also, I hope Han Shuo will find a way to keep that guy away from Xiaoqian and won't let him stay around Xiaoqian for too long. 😔And do I sense a possibility of a relationship between the Crown Princess and Su Mu? 🤭
