Black Lotus

Why does she need to accept him because he saved her? Would you fall in love with any rando who saves you? There are standards that need to be met. This is not one of those dramas where the girl immediately falls in love with the man who saved her as they twirl around in slow motion for the camera.

Finally all those years we've been complaining for better FLs has paid off this year! WCR is phenomenal as LMT and the contrast between her amnesiac self and her real self is a master act not many actresses could pull off so well.

Right there with you. I've seen so many strong FLs fall apart once they fall in love that it completely ruins their character (Song of Glory, The Legends) so I am glad this trope is done with. ML does not deserve her pining for him and needs to earn his way back into her good graces.

To borrow a phrase from another commenter, LMT was treated like a prisoner of war. In the eyes of the law, that is ok. But morally, is that ok? No. Not according to me. But I already said to agree to disagree. No one's changing anyone's minds about this.

There are other characters in the drama. And what's it to you? I can criticize a character and still enjoy the drama. I didn't realize you could only comment with praises.

Her identity at the time was Lu Wen's CONCUBINE so no, going by that piece of info available to the ML they were not direct enemies according to him. She was a casualty that he freely exploited. Also going by her identity as a CONCUBINE she could also be considered innocent because nobody knew she was actually Lu Wen. I KNOW that neither one of them are good people but this weird perception that she should be grateful that he saved her makes it seem like he did it out of the kindness of his heart, hence a good Samaritan. He IS NONE OF THOSE THINGS. That is EXACTLY my point!

Agree to disagree. He got swept up in his own lies and like LMT says he didn't fall in love with the real her. He fell in love with the "canary he raised." Yes, she was the one who mistook him for her husband but he was the one who willingly ran with the lie. A normal person would have just said no but of course he had ulterior motives. He took advantage of her identity and hid it from her, making decisions behind her back without her consent. He even said he wanted to get a full return in value out of saving her, so that doesn't exactly sound like the playbook of a good Samaritan. Taking advantage of someone when they're at their most vulnerable (in this case losing all of her freaking memories) is despicable in my eyes.

Falling in love doesn't excuse any of this. The FL's past as a bandit doesn't excuse his actions. That's just plain old victim blaming.

Exactly!

You need help. It's just a drama and people can have a conversation. God help people like you who threaten others over a fake character. Seriously, get help dude.

I don't see how her past has anything to do with her deserving to be taken advantage of as an amnesiac. You ask what despicable thing he did? It's plain and clear he manipulated her emotions time and again to get her to believe that they were a loving couple. Staging scenarios to perpetuate that reality and not to mention using her as bait to lure out his enemy. He could have stopped at any time and his friend even told him so but he kept dragging it out.

What are you even trying to say? You literally don't understand anything.

In what bizarro world do I actually agree with Viki comments more? The FL does not owe the ML anything! You would have had a case of he saved her life and that was all he did, but he lied to her repeatedly and trapped her in a fake fantasy world, manipulating her feelings, leading her on with falsehoods and using her for his own means. The good deed that came out of saving her life is effectively voided by every single other despicable action he continued to do thereafter. She can stab him many more times for all I care.

You people are actually ridiculous lol. You can save someone without lying to them repeatedly, creating a fake fantasy world for them to live in and leading them on for a year! You actually want FL to be grateful and develop Stockholm syndrome for a despicable liar like that? If he were an old man, that would be called grooming. He used her for his own means until he didn't. Y'all will excuse anything when the ML is a pretty boy. Who cares if he fell in love? That's his own fault.

Why don't we get FLs like this more often? She is so self-serving and determined. I love it!

Legend of Yunze is so cute and we need more GL xianxia, particularly with a bigger budget!

He's so bad I had to drop the drama. Literally one facial expression in every single scene.

Ep 28 had me bawling. The acting was just so on point. I'm so thoroughly impressed with the FL with every episode.

Mad respect to him for not being a scrawny little chicken like most male leads in cdramas. He's in good shape!

I love cunning FLs and this show is so satisfying for it. The premise is still similar to Princess Wei Young but I like the story here much better. Every ep is me just watching in glee to see how the FL gets rid of her enemies. This one kinda came out of nowhere but I'm so grateful it exists because there is nothing good in cdramaland right now.
