You should absolutely prioritize yourself, weāre gonna spoil things to you here and if (IT HAS TO) it ends with an happy ending you can always watch it šŖš»šŖš»
The way everyone keeps blaming Lu Feng is wild. Yi Chen willingly loved him, willingly chose him, and yet somehow…
I agree with you bestie, canāt stand them! Also Qi Lang was there when Yi Chen junior fell down the stairs. HE SAW that Yi Chen junior was attacking Lu Feng out of nowhere because heās a little shit, but conveniently he got sudden amnesia and now itās Lu Fengās fault š
This is absolute nonsense the way they treat Lu Feng. From the start theyāve been vilifying him, even though…
The way everyone keeps blaming Lu Feng is wild. Yi Chen willingly loved him, willingly chose him, and yet somehow the entire responsibility gets dumped on Lu Feng. š¤”
AND THE BROTHER?! Heās driving me insane. Did he hit his head off-screen and conveniently forget that he was the one hiding the messages? Because the way heās acting, youād think he had absolutely nothing to do with this whole situation.
The bother is the one who ticked me off. It's like they Forgot they showed us that the brother saw the phone message…
The brother is an unbearable pain in the ass. THE AUDACITY of saying to Lu Feng over and over again that he ruined his brother and their family. And then heās gay as well. The level of hypocrisy he displays is astounding
Today i'm mad. If Yichen stood his ground instead of asking for a break none of this would have happened to be…
At this point it feels like the āAsian householdā argument only applies to Yi Chen.
People use it to justify every decision he makes, but somehow Lu Feng is expected to walk away from his family, endure abuse, fight for the relationship, and sacrifice everything without hesitation.
im feeling frustrated with them. the mother and both the brothers. but yeah tomorrows episode will give me tension…
Totally!
It was really difficult to watch and she was utterly mean with her son. And what makes this especially painful to watch is that Yi Chen is being pressured to sacrifice his own happiness, his relationship, and ultimately his future, all to satisfy someone elseās fears and prejudices. Thatās not love. Thatās control.
And honestly, while I understand that family is important, I completely understand Lu Feng choosing to distance himself from people who refuse to accept him for who he is. If my parents tried to force me into a marriage because of their own prejudices, I would walk away too.

THIS! šš»šš» A parent should NEVER make their child feel ashamed of who they are or who they love. Ever.
And personally, I find it disturbing how quickly people look for excuses the moment the person being homophobic is a mother. Being a parent doesnāt automatically make your actions understandable or acceptable. Sometimes parents are wrong, and sometimes they deeply hurt their children.

Iām queer, and unfortunately I know very well how real people like her are.
I actually agree with you that sheās realistic, and maybe thatās exactly why I react so strongly to her. The problem isnāt that I donāt understand where sheās coming from. Itās that I personally canāt empathize with someone who tells their child that their love is shameful, wrong, or that they somehow āmadeā someone else gay.
If anything, characters like her make me angry precisely because they hit a little too close to home. The same goes for the other parents in this story. I understand their role in the narrative and why theyāre there, but watching them hurts because many queer people have heard versions of those same words in real life.
So yes, I agree that sheās realistic. Unfortunately, thatās exactly what makes her so upsetting to watch for me. š

Iām actually sad that she didnāt followed her husband š„° I canāt stand her and her homophobic beliefs. Seeing her basically imply that one son somehow āmadeā the other gay or āinfectedā him with it was honestly horrible to watch. I understand that sheās a product of her environment and her beliefs, but that doesnāt make what sheās saying any less hurtful. At some point, your child should come before your prejudice. And I donāt care how conservative or homophobic a society is supposed to be. If thereās one place where you should feel loved and accepted, it should be your own family.
Guys, please, donāt come at me with the novel. I havenāt read it, I donāt plan to read it, and Iām commenting on the EPISODE, not the book. Okay? Great.
Now that thatās out of the way⦠this episode was absolutely brutal.
We went from Yi Chen literally begging Lu Feng not to leave him, telling him theyād stay together forever, to all of this. And honestly, the motherās homophobia was painful to watch. Every time she opens her mouth, she somehow manages to make everything worse.
And donāt even get me started on the brother. The audacity of this man to keep blaming Lu Feng for hurting Yi Chen in the past when HE was the one hiding the messages. He gets to live his life, be with the person he loves, make his own choices, and somehow thatās fine. But when it comes to Yi Chen, suddenly sacrifices have to be made. Yi Chen has to give up the person he loves. Yi Chen has to bend to the familyās expectations. The double standard is driving me insane.
Iām not saying Lu Feng is a saint, for the love of God, but at this point itās genuinely difficult for me to be mad at him. VERY difficult.
Because what weāre actually seeing is someone being constantly told that his relationship is wrong, shameful, disgusting, that he should be ashamed of who he loves. They keep treating Lu Feng and Yi Chen like their love is some kind of problem that needs to be āfixed.ā And honestly? Put yourselves in his shoes for a second. Itās horrible. Absolutely horrible.
Anyway, this episode destroyed me. Iām still in shock, and Iām genuinely terrified of tomorrowās episode. š
few hours before the next episode a gentle reminder this is a bl show(with lots of trauma, abuse , red flag and…
Bestie, Iām afraid you need to prepare yourself because from this episode onward the comment section is going to be an absolute war zone š Not just here, but on every social media platform too š«
Idk if I'm overthinking this, but I get it that Yi Chen never stood up for his relationship with Lu Feng and instead…
I think a lot of it comes from the fact that this adaptation has done a much better job at making viewers empathize with Lu Feng. Many people havenāt read the novel or watched the movies, so theyāre judging the story based on what the series has shown so far. From that perspective, they see someone who gave up everything for the person he loved and got hurt in return.
That doesnāt mean Yi Chen deserves every bad thing that might happen to him, though.
