How can saying he meant nothing to her be interpreted as we are still together? How can all the cheating on him show that she still wanted to be with him? I suppose one could take it literally that unless she said they have broken up, he should think that they are still together despite the several years apart. If that is the case, she definitely is delusional especially if what she told the FL is what she truly believes.

Ah ok...no worries even if you were...I like exchanging comments with people with a good sense of humour!
Yeah, I still can't quite guess the murderer yet and next week's preview is really all over the place. Plus I am distracted by the current tension between the leads. I am also irritated by Hye Ju - she's turning out to be quite the clingy ex.

LOL, now I believe you're being sarcastic. I happened to just finish watching the scene between Se Na and the other company...and realize that I didn't have to guess. It was pretty clear that was what happened :D

Is Hye Joo delusional? After saying all those nasty things to Ra Ik, she can actually claim they never broke up???

I think it was Woo Seong who was trying to sign with another company, and the manager knew that. That's why he shouted at Jae Hee that it was not Ra-Ik, Also, Woo Seong's reaction with Jae Hee in the hospital was interesting, making me think that.
Yes, the mother did do a shady deal but I think that was a whole different nasty business.

Oh but Xi Guang did some initiating too 😂

Spice level has gone up too. Not as spicy as other couples but still good.

Ah I was waiting for your kiss count :) I am only up to ep 34 but the count has definitely increased :D

True - he should at least be allowed to maintain his dignity at work! Don't know why the writer had to bash him up so much!

You Are My Glory by same author. Romance is spicier. The Best Thing is also good.

I am glad that you stood up for ZX - he did not deserve to be made into such a villain, and hated so much. Yes, he still messed up but I understand why he messed up.

Timing really is the key to everything here.

Back in their college years, NXG and ZH simply weren’t mature enough to handle their emotions or the realities of life. ZH may have liked NXG, but he neither had the confidence or courage to deal with such a force like her. Sadly he was also manipulated by the people he thought he could trust.

We can see how much NXG has grown after entering the workforce. She became more empathetic and more aware that not everyone can be as bold or decisive as she is. In college, she moved through life with a kind of confidence that came from financial stability and strong family support. It wasn’t arrogance, but it did limit how much she reflected on others’ constraints. As an adult, she understands that people hesitate for reasons beyond simple indecision.

That said, she may have reflected less in college but she did apologize and and told ZX that she would not have done anything had she known about him and YR. In doing so, she gave him the perfect opening to explain himself—to be honest, to clarify, to fight for what he wanted. Yet, he let that moment slip by. Not just once, but repeatedly. His pattern of avoidance ultimately cost him everything when it came to her.

By contrast, NXG and LYS meet at exactly the right time, in their adulthood. They’ve lived a little, failed a little, and learned how to communicate with higher emotional intelligence. They know themselves better and understand others more deeply. Their connection feels natural and grounded.

Same here. I really hope ZX finds peace by the end—not through a consolation romance, but through himself.

A last-minute love interest would feel hollow, almost like a participation trophy. What ZX actually needs is growth: success in his career, confidence in his own choices, and the ability to finally stand on his own without hesitation or regret. Let him learn, let him level up, and let him become someone who no longer second-guesses his worth.

Exactly...I was so happy with XiGuang's final rejection. That should be the end of it. Why do we need to see him and his colleagues with their work troubles...

XiGuang's candid and clear rejection was a good enough wake up call. I was hoping that we were done with that and I don't want to see him become even more miserable at work. I rather have more time with our leads :D

Just finished ep 31 - Our lovely couple is getting more comfortable with each other....as most of us suspected, because of that, their skinship is getting spicier...

Side note: do they have to make Zhuang Xu more miserable? Give the guy a break.!

Mine is the US and I think Japan too. I’m not sure which others.

No not bad at all 😁 That’s part of the pleasure of watching these characters! Not something so easily accessible in real life 😆

That makes sense - the only way to return to the magnanimous Rong family that RSB reminisced about. She has to break the hateful cycle of jealousy and vindictiveness.

The weather would turn so bad and we see LJL carrying RSB on his back while they and her servants go up the tea plantation. LJL cutely complaining away. Then we see the 4th sister bullying and whipping the girl that helps RSB manage the plantation, so the other tea workers got really upset and quit working. Then there are fights between those workers and the 4th sis’ servants. Until RSB comes and whipped the 4th sister. Cut to the scene of the 2nd sister’s sedan chair being stopped by that shady tea guy she was doing business with and getting bribed. He wants to hold her hostage until he’s sure the Ring family can deliver the tea. Otherwise his investment will be lost.

Agree with you and I can’t wait for that! 😁

I don't think they will be taken out completely...just like that He guy, they will keep popping up. But I want them to suffer in ep 18, just to see that smugness wiped off their faces!
