Honestly that’s why I can’t buy into their “love story”. I can see why she would fall for him as she sees…
Reason why I think they made a mistake by not to introduce him before ep 10. Had they done that by ep 5, with the flashbacks, we would have seen more of their love story.
Liu Xie Ning looks gorgeous on those pictures posted today. I remember how lovely she looked in "Night of love with you" an addictive cheap web 2022 webdrama.
Apparently in the novel Ning'er is described as a carnal super beauty with a lot of s*x appeal that got enhanced…
Of course there is more since empress was pursuing and teasing him and was also burning to approach and touch him. So I guess through that a bond got created and got stronger with time. This is one reason I think a drama about 1st life XN and ZZ would be fabulous and burn the screen. But for sure that fire they got on 1st place for each other was physical, passionate, intense and deliciously forbidden (not only cause of their status but cause of ZZ personality)

He did not give in for sure but ZZ is a man 1st and foremost. Why do you think he accepted to sacrifice himself to save her in the 1st life. Do you think this the "I will be good" sentence only that worked the magic and convinced him ? Guy whole being was physically burning for her since day 1 and it was love at 1st sight for him even though he knew she was bad news and more importantly the empress. He was strongly attracted to her maybe he saw more but I am sure he was not insensitive to her charms, that is what struck. And they met when she is at her peak s*xyally and concerning her confidence. He was fighting hard to restrain himself.
ZZ character is total opposite of Ninger he is soo upright 😂 how did he fell for evil empress in first life…
Apparently in the novel Ning'er is described as a carnal super beauty with a lot of s*x appeal that got enhanced during her empress days (more maturity + perfected the science of seduction to get her ways). She was kind of like an Ancient China prime Monical Bellucci or Ava Gardner. Therefore a guy like ZZ had difficulty resisting her charms when he met her and she was pursuing him. The vulnerability of the D.
DaiDai aka s*x on legs got a too strong alpha male vibe about him. He would be good as Xie Wei. WXY stays as pure frightened lamb ready to be devoured ZZ 😌
