I think what would work for me is for ZSC to say "Are you ready?" because he's conscious of SY's feeling & maybe have him sleep level to level w/ her... LOL

You're so kind. Thank you for the translation!!

Forever &Ever fans are on twitter. They'll help you. I'll help you there.

Exactly my point! I don’t care for kiss scene, but give me growth in the leading man. While everyone change , he revert back to the same old person where nobody exist but him and his work . I have to compare the novel ZSC, because what he doesn’t know he research and try to do better. He buys her flowers, research how to kiss, super protective of SY. In the drama, we are left w/ SY initiating every intimate moment & SY does come off as a little desperate for his love. Whereas in the novel both SY and ZSC equally seeks affection.

I have to give alot of credit to BL and how Shiyi's character was written. She was the one that's carry this drama from the past to the present. Her internal emotional struggles left us viewers wanting to see her happiness with ZSC in the present. ZSC in generally never fought for her love in the past and the present. He is still connected to the same old person who did it for his personal motivation (marry Shiyi was to gain control of his inheritance to protect his family). While all characters have some growth, his character is dead set on being the same. Acting wise, there was not enough material or emotional scene to let RJL shine as ZSC. Hence, BL really held her ground with this drama.

Although I have my complaints because they could easily been avoid . That is a modest rating for this drama given that if you leave out the reincarnation, it becomes like a typical Cdrama. I was worry the Douban rating would be lower than 6.7 . In the end, I do like BL and RJL and want the best for them.

Your comment is invalid as I've said enough good thing about this drama more than my critic. You obviously haven't read all my comments.

R U gonna tell everybody here to stop watching because they don't agree with you? I watch this drama because of BL, RJL, the novel, the original author, and ONO, but I'm a drama watcher and I will critic the drama accordingly to what's lacking including RJL.

He is as much to blame as well. To me, the drama version looks like it was tailor and change specifically for RJL and those awkwardness/dorkiness are there as an excuse for him to bypass all the intimate scenes. So when the leading lady makes her move, he always hesitate in his reaction and movement...which makes me as an audience question "does he even love her?" I'm very disappointed in that Shiyi has to try so hard here. This might work if we are still at the early stage of the drama but we are wrapping up and there's no character growth at all from our leading man. In ONO, there's no intimate scenes at all, but everything makes senses in his gazes and the story line and I love ONO. But here, not just the leading man an issue, but all the major events that happened to Shiyi were water down. We get the aftermath of the situation and then other people describe how worry ZSC was, but we want to see those scene not have people descript it to us.

If you read the novel, you'll be more dissatisfied. The Kissing/Bed scenes are cut off to imply that they did.... which is fine... but even after that the leading man is still afraid of the leading lady. Like where is my character growth, you just slept with your wife and the next days you back to being like a stranger (like what the heck). We basically been watching the same recycle routine from our leads.

I am way past that. I don't know how you can be satisfy with those scenes. Them laying on the bed makes you happy. That "first time" of them did nothing to the progression of story. We are right back to where we are in terms of character growth.

Production company need to take note NEVER to hired an actor w/ a cause. The story is already water down due to censorship and now you have a leading man who is also limiting his acting restriction. The writer should compensate at the very least... show some growth in the leading man. But Nope, we have a clueless leading man and it makes our leading leady seems like she is desperate. Frankly, this will be my last drama of RJL.

Very good point and I agree with you. Don't tailor the character from the novel to the actor, the actors need to do their job and be that character; however, it's obvious here that both the leads are no longer the ones in the novel. I can't complain when the author establish it so well. Shiyi in the novel is over tradition in the clothes she wears (no short sleeves; shorts) and the way she communicates (she's very quiet and only initiate talks to ZSC).

The leads chemistry in "Destiny of white snake" was so dull and boring. "Under the Power" was all Seven Tan's doing as Allen's character was the typical tough leading men who shows no affection. I've seen to many of this type; hence, I didn't think the romance was anything to ride home about. "Never Say Goodbye," although both leads look the best here, they don't look good as a pair together and I've got nothing to say regarding "Miss Crow..." as it just a filler drama for Allen Ren.

If only they knew that it's actually thousands of years!

Honestly, I’ve seen anticipated pull and it’s always with “you’re my glory” on top and then “Forever andEver” afterword. I feel like OAO ended w/ such a heartbreak and leading the online pack. So FAE had the momentum going on for it, which is why iQiyi did not back down and they still insisted on airing the drama at the same time as OOL . FAE might still be leading the online pack anyway since OOL is airing both online/tV.

Awe.. that is so sweet. His brain goes beyond ours.

If you are a rich family and is the mother you'll feel the same protective ways too (now that we get a glance into her view). Out of the blue, this beautiful girl comes onto my son and now is willing to marry him w/ weeks (?), I would think she is up to no good...perhaps wanting a piece of that pie and thinking her son is falling into the abyss of the beauty.
