Cho Na

Hahaha... Ke Ying and Kay Song swapped faces again!

I thought about that 'betrothal' between the Crown Prince (now Emperor) and Jiu Ling's daughter. But that's like a huge age gap now. He proposed it before, cos his father said Jiu Ling and Rong Yu would have daughter in 10 months, lol!

Wow... HOT!!! 🤤🤤🤤🔥🔥🔥

Douban rating is not open yet, but mixed reviews. Some negative reviews are about bad plot (screenwriting) and editing. Some positive reviews are about great acting of Song Yi Ren and Wang You Shuo.

I have a hunch Song Yi Ren's My Special Girl will come out soon since her costar there Leon Zhang has a drama airing now The Furthest Distance. The Cdrama trend is one actor's dramas come out one after another if the first drama succeeds.

Which Wang You Shuo's drama with a daughter? I'm waiting for The Legend of Taotie. His costar there An Yue Xi was absolutely hilarious as an alien in Let's Shake It! with Zheng Ye Cheng. I would love to see her again. She is another underrated actress imo.

Ikr... confusing... I already skimmed through Ep 21-26 and also Ep 27 all in raw. Will rewatch again with proper sub later. I hope someone sub Ep 27 (the one on bilibili). I think what he said is important to know.

Why she look old in Ep 26 (like the one at the market when hiding from him) and younger in Ep 27 when they meet again with their daughter? Does she get better?

Thank you for translating! 😊😊😊

They are in xianxias. The leads have white hair are immortals, their faces still have the same youth and good looking. In this drama, Jiu Ling actually gets old.

Lol... imo all romance Taiwanese dramas have great kissing scenes, cos they're more mature and professional than Chinese actors/actresses. Plus, there is not much government censorship like in Chinese dramas. Another Taiwanese drama with an amazing kissing scene is "Love, Now". I watched it in my beginning adventure in dramaland, so it's unforgettable. Also, later the drama couple became a real couple. I read that "Before We Get Married" is also good. A newer one is "Lesson in Love", if you're ok with noona romance.

Short-length series Chinese dramas also have great kissing scenes, cos less government censorship like the regular long ones.

Did they meet again in afterlife or what? I only skimmed Ep 26 raw version, didn't have time to watch. Have no clue why she became old and he became sickly. The editing is so bad.

Have fun!

I don't watch this version. But the rating is quite low. Probably no sub?

Thanks, it helps!

Synopsis:
Lin Mengmeng is a newly graduated intern and amateur online writer. Her father died young, and she and her mother depend on each other. Although life is difficult, she has a cheerful personality. Until her mother was hospitalized due to a heart disease. In order to raise money, she wrote novels while working. This led to her lack of energy and making mistakes at work. She accidentally spilled coffee all over the CEO, Lu Linglian, and the entanglement between the two began. The appearance of the domineering president Lu Linglian gave Lin Mengmeng a lot of writing material. During her contact with Lu Linglian, she realized that she seemed to have fallen in love with him. The identity gap between Cinderella and the domineering president put her into another emotional dilemma. At this time, Lu Linglian's cousin Xu Boyu returned to China. He had always loved Lin Mengmeng when he was in school. After returning, he pursued Lin Mengmeng.

I know... I sound pessimistic, but after watching (completed) and reading (not interested) hundreds of Cdramas I have seen and read any bizzare endings in Cdramaland. I used to watch dramas once they were completed, and I ONLY watched happy ending or positive open ending. But since now I shifted to watch currently airing dramas, I have to prepare for the worst scenarios. Then when the ending is better I will just say "oh it's not too bad" or "Yay" for a happy ending. Or if the ending is bad I will say "well, what to expect in Cdramas?" That way, I will survive and keep my sanity in Cdramaland, cos I watch more Cdramas than dramas from other countries.

I brace myself for a sad ending!

Omg, thank you so much for the translation!!! I almost cried just reading the convo translation, so it will be hard to watch Ep 20. I think I'll be crying again during that scene.

I never bought express package for any Cdramas, lol.

Which episode are you in right now? In the latest episode 19, in front of her father's tomb, she promised: "Wait for me a little longer. When Jialin becomes peaceful and stable again, I will come and join you."
What does it tell you? She promised the Emperor to stabilize Jialin so he could reign rightfully without the Regent and Rong's influences. The Emperor will clear the He's family and make a glorious family tomb for them. Since Jiu Ling is single, she will be back as a He. She dies and will be buried together with the He family. Her religious belief is when she dies she will reunite with her family in the afterlife.

No, he'll divorce her (preview for Ep 20) or the Emperor will issue the annulment. That crazy princess will ask the Emperor to marry her to Rong Yu. Jiu Ling's final good deed is leaving him their daughter to accompany him for the rest of his life. She'll kill herself to join her family afterlife, after killing the Regent and Uncle Rong.
