Don't worry, in the book, ML also thought Meilin was dead and it's a HE.

Ii's all jumbled in my mind as well, in which episode did the FL try to kill ML before she started training as an assasin? I also don't understand how her trying to kill ML would expose the Crown Prince as the real culprit for the massacre.

How did FL find the truth and in which episode? I must have missed and is it about who is responsible for the fire?

What brother? That's her husband from her previous life as the book has a reincarnation theme.

In her current reincarnated life she fears him because she suspects that he is the one that killed her to gain power and status but in reality he loves her very much. In her previous life to her it was an arranged marriage and a woman is just expected to dutifully submit to the husband and what would she know about love at that young age in a world where females are cloistered. I haven't finished reading the book but I find Lu Jiaxue almost as appealing as Luo Shenyuan so it makes for quite pleasant reading even when she is with LJX and both are ruthless men.

Towards the end of Ep. 5 I guess you're talking about Lu Jiaxue , the stern looking man playing the musical instrument while watching his nephew fight, what makes you think that he is the FL's real brother? In the book he is the FL's real husband in her previous life and she reincarnated into this current life. When he called her 'MeiMei' it's her nickname 'Eyebrow' and not 'MeiMei' for sister. LOL

Thank you! I was using google translate and it was tedious.

You must be a speed reader to finish the novel so fast. I know right, what if the FL is ugly! This reminds me of a reality show where there were many female contestants vying to marry a millionaire sight unseen with elimination each week. After several weeks the final winner was chosen and the big reveal came when the millionaire walked onto the stage and he looked like a toad barely 5 ft. tall and you should see the dismay on the winner's face. LOL. Do check out my reply to MeariMeari above for more of my perception reading the novel and by the way do you not find the male singer's voice included in chapter 21 wonderful? I love his voice and I also love Tan Jian Ci's voice.

I think your last sentence hit the nail on the head and that's what caused my confusion because the author was deficient in describing the ML's feelings upon seeing the FL so it gave me the impression that he knew what she looked like before the meeting in the studio. He didn't appear startled in the novel whereas she did. Also I managed to find chapter 45 where he texted: "A few years ago, I heard a demo from Ling Long Ti Tou. There was a voice softly humming a melody. No lyrics. Ling Long Ti Tou played it over three times, then told me, this girl was so talented; she could arrange and compose music and her voice was beautiful. I felt the same. Of course, there was also something that she had not experienced: the heart stirring and fluttering with aroused emotions. At that time, that voice was not yet called “Sheng Sheng Man.” In fact, there was not even a name associated with it. It was simply, “sheng” [sound]. Later, I found her. " This text also gave me the impression he had been observing her but a few years ago she would be far too young for him to court. See where my imagination and perception took me because the author left it up to the readers to fill in the important details. Now I have to twist my mind around to see the ML in a different light as in the drama.

I know, everything is so much more forgivable when it is a handsome looking guy doing the tracking. Maybe tracking is too strong a word so how about observing. LOL. That is why I wonder if I misread and would not mind comparing notes with someone who has read the novel.

Yes, both the drama and the novel premises are good and enjoyable, I was only somewhat confused as there are subtle differences so thanks for clarifying. Actually the FL is better in the drama because in the novel she is very much an introvert and says "mm" way too much and you can't do that in a drama otherwise it would drive us all batty. While waiting for new episodes you may want to check out 2 songs that are real delicious in the novel in the link provided by Lucian Yaz in Recent Discussions above the comments section. One is in Chapter 15 sung by the FL and the other is in Chapter21 sung by the ML as he accompanied the FL on the subway. The male singer's voice is to die for. These songs could not be included in the drama because of copyright issues which is so disappointing because I find them way better than the replacements in the drama.

Wow, what a leap of faith! What if she turned out to be ugly. In the novel I got the impression the reason why he did not have a girlfriend was because he was waiting to meet the FL who he was tracking as he was already in love with her for her voice so he did some maneuvering to make it happen. Did you read the novel?

I'm watching episode 4 and when the ML and FL met at the recording studio the ML acted like he was surprised it's the girl from the grocery store but I read the translated novel and I thought he already knew it was her and what she looked like. Did I read it wrong or did they change it in the drama?

Hua Qian will end up with Zhong Xi Wu. Of course when she wakes up in the real world her initial reaction would be utter shock and rejection but later on when she has calmed down she will start reflecting on her dream and realize that throughout her dream there was a constant presence that had a fragrance that no one else could smell and what sounded like bits and pieces of caring words. She will then know that it was ZXW by her side all along, that it was he who saved her and that he accepts her even though he has only seen her worst side since he never saw the goodness that she displayed in her dream. Now back in the real world she has nobody but ZXW who promises to face with her whatever consequences may come. That's real love. Her dream of a carefree life in the world can never be as she is really a criminal and has no future, no family, no money. HQ being an intelligent woman must finally know how lucky she is to still have ZXW and besides she's attracted to him. By the way this is only my conjecture otherwise it would be too cruel for both of them to be apart in the dream as well as in real life then what's the point of this story. Maybe that's why the director changed ZXW's position to Lord instead of Emperor so that there is more flexibility for them to be together.

Episode 11 of the drama at the 5.11 mark Cang Xuan specifically said 'Xiao Yao is the daughter of my aunt and my master' which makes them cousins.

The Recent Discussions section above gives the impression that it is empty when in fact it has a lot of content, can someone please fix that?

Thank-you and I also see below the wedding extra which I didn't even know existed.

What do you mean by the source, are you asking for the translated book in English?

You can watch it on kisskh.co
