I think SS saw the big picture and accepted. Her family would be in trouble for not accepting. Like she said who would marry me after being put on the spot? Next part is the bonding with LBY. Looking forward to that.♥

Yes SS saw the big picture. She doesn't realize what she got herself into but now she will be able to openly bond with LBY instead of all the secret chance meetings.♥

I think the Empress really admires SS. SS spoke her mind and actually was very diplomatic and realized the whole picture. SS calmly spoke her mind and overruled her parents.

What can I say? That was the most unromantic engagement I've ever seen. Talk about being put on the spot. I think he brought up his plan because he saw how she was being ridiculed by the "ladies". The "ladies" are sooo vicious. SS is not afraid of them and actually did nothing wrong they just attacked her for no reason other than she spoke her mind. Mom not realizing how brutal she was on SS really hurt her feelings and I think that's why SS accepted the engagement and over ruled her parents. SS doesn't realize what she got herself into. The only saving grace is LBY when he said he would marry no one but her. Next part is SS bonding with LBY and becoming his true love. ♥

My experience is 2 yrs honey moon phase. If you last 3 yrs then marry the guy. ♥

To me the show is fantastic. The first 5 episodes are about FL family. You will love them, laugh at them, even hate them. It's very well done and well worth the watch. Later on our heroine has some adventures and meets the 3 men who are destined to fall in love with her. Only one will prevail.♥

The grandmother only likes boys. That's one of the reasons why she wasn't taken care of properly. It will become clearer in later episodes. Keep watching.

You want to know something? I don't feel unloved because I loved back. I have not met my own soul mate. If I waited and waited and waited what kind of a life would I have had. Instead I have a beautiful family. My life was richer because I chose to love the one I'm with. Just be careful who you choose. Friends are good. Peace. ♥

There is a saying/song " If you can't be with the one you love... Love the one you're with. " They would have been just fine. It's only the script that tore them apart. ♥

Yes, he was not really at the tower for her. He was spying on the two men. I wonder who they were? She kinda stumbled in on it and he had to rescue her.

I love this script/story the writer is so insightful psychologically behind all her characters. I am enjoying peoples reaction to some of the characters. They react without thinking why are they like this? So enjoying all the reactions. Yours is spot on. Thank you.♥

They are together. FL is only 15 and doesn't know her own feelings yet. ML has been protecting her all along. It's very touching. Don't you think?♥

I noticed that too. The gestures between daughter and parent. Such a minute thing but so meaningful. I don't know if it's in the script or if the director interjected these gestures. So cool. Really, this script is very insightful about human nature.

I think the grandma's part is hilarious. She came from nothing and now because of her son's efforts she finally has bragging rights. Her sons turned out okay because of her care. They totally understand her and where she is coming from. Abject poverty and a widow. Finally she has some dignity in life although she still comes from her poverty and can't believe her fortune. Yes she is greedy but given her life ... She is only acting on her nature to have more. << this could be considered why her son's have achieved. ♥

He's full of jealousy <<. He is such a pompous ass. I liked how her brother came in to say that her Dad wanted to take her to thank LBY. The pissed off look on his face was priceless. "You better stay away from him." << out the window. hahahaha♥

Though the breaking of the engagement was heart breaking I liked how LY pointed out to "The Grand Tutor" he now will have military backing and to leave 2nd Chamber alone. LY's Mother perked up at that. ♥

Remember the arrow scene? It's the same shoulder and now has reopened. ♥

We shall all have to wait and see. The adoptive father is probably involved in the arms case he is investigating. ML was only a child when his family was killed so probably didn't know what the adults were up to. ♥

Really? Minglan is a classic. Though too long but such is the times it was made. ♥

I know. Is she watching the same series? hahahaha♥
