Beautiful episode, is it bad of me that I felt satisfaction to how Fan ended things with Lu Zhen? Loved the subtle NC scene, loved the vulnerability Fan showed when he mentioned it was his first time. Looking forward to tomorrow. The NC alone would’ve made the series be shelved if it wasn’t for the coproduction, if it was a complete Chinese production. They barely show a naked shoulder when it comes to straight series.

Not cousins, in the manhwa the uncle adopted Il Jo, he was an orphan. So not related to each other.

What was with the editing for episode 4? It’s like they shot the nc scene and then the editing team thought “let’s cut it all up, make it more interesting” (not). Not the mention the flying plant in the corner which is quickly removed? They really couldnt say cut let’s do it again. So far this series is a huge disappointment, it couldve been good, it had potential. I had hoped for better, especially for the actors. I really liked them in Sweetheart Service.

JBL needs to stop with the rekindling at the end of the last episode, followed by a kiss. Can’t they give us like 10 more minutes, just show a bit more, this series left me with a few questions. Making the episode 10 minutes longer would possibly have answered those questions. Other than that, the series was really great, cute and lovely. The kiss was tame, but I can blame that on it being Chiaki first kiss. I wouldn’t mind seeing a season 2, where for example Chiaki and Enega work together designing clothes.

8,5/10

Wasnt that after the necklace was already given? Thats the only way they can control it, then they can only read other peoples minds if they touch them.

You miss the part where they cannot control it. As soon as eyes are locked they will hear those thoughts of the other person. I do think Jan should’ve mentioned something earlier, but would Tai have believed him than?

The relationship was flawed from beginning, even if FX wasnt pouring gasoline over the fire, they probably wouldn’t have lasted. LZ felt like he couldn’t be himself around YS because YS is quite proper, etc. And than the bit where LZ mentioned that he couldnt really connect with YS was true. The novel mentions a couple times how LZ saw things in FX he couldn’t get from YS, but in the end LZ is a materialist, he likes being spoiled, getting expensive gifts, etc. If it wasn’t FX than it might have been somebody else or LZ would eventually move on.

No in my opinion he didn’t, he flirted back sure. But he told FX openly that he had a partner, that FX should move away, create some distance between them, stop being clingy. Even when he was drugged, his muddled thoughts were still with LZ. Can’t really say the same thing about LZ. But maybe I’m just biased towards YS

Even if YS agreed on it, was it reasonable to say all that? Why didn’t LZ mention it during the relationship, than YS could still have done something against it. To me it felt more like LZ was trying to get rit of the guilt he felt towards YS and so he lashed out. And I also got the impression it hurt or bothered YS, otherwise why was he mulling over those words why getting drunk? Either way the relationship broke because LZ got swayed by FX.

Agreed. He has no problems opening up to FX.

Valid? I found it more as kicking a man even more when he was already down. They were together for two years, were supposed to go abroad to get married, yet Lu Zhen had no problems canceling those plans for a stranger. If Lu Zhen felt all those things why didnt he mention them before to Shulang.

Logically speaking those could indeed be the reasons for the change.

From how I read the novel, he was in fact sincere about his feelings and his trauma, but he just exaggerated his emotions a bit more.

The translation of the novel was that Shi Lihua asked Fan aren’t you afraid of triggering your condition again and having a relapse, Fan answered with it’s already triggered. Shi response with holy fuck, how are you sounding so calm right now. And Fan than explains that he can’t keep running forever, since I’m going to try and try taking steps forward, I might as well play up my misery a little in front of him while I’m at it.

I read that as a fan was triggered by trauma and resurfacing memories, but he just made it look worse in front of Shulang to gain sympathy.

It’s weird, in the novel, Fan Xiao grew up in Thailand but moved back to China. In the series it’s the opposite. Or am I reading the novel wrong.

Why?

It was more of a question as to how somebody still can think that Shulang, who so far has shown to be very loyal towards Lu Zhen, is the one who will cheat.

I do agree that I think Lu Zhen his behavior isnt anything to write home about, he definitely crossed a couple lines. Especially with the whole lying about why he had to cancel plans to meet a guy he barely knows, long lasting future plans as they mentioned they wanted to get married abroad. Yes I feel sorry for Shulang too, he doesn’t deserve it, even though he does flirt with Fan Xiao, he’s been quite clear, he has a partner. Mentioned a couple times that Fan Xiao should create some distance and stop being so clingy. Lu Zhen hasnt even mentioned he has a partner, indirectly reducing his relationship to Shulang as family, not to mention what happened in this last episode. When Shulang is drugged to feel lust, his muddled thoughts were still with Lu Zhen, can’t say the same thing about Lu Zhen.

BTW I read the novel 😉

You really think it’s going to be Shulang who cheats on Lu Zhen?

Do you mean me? My reaction was because people kept complaining about the SA. It’s fiction, there’s a difference.

Ageeed and same! I see this as how some people like reading Dark Romance books, and some don’t.
