I cannot wait till the arc of evil princess Mingyue wanting to marry Yu Qi end! So repetitive! Still not resolved according to teaser for episode 32 where Emperor enforcing a marriage between them with FL and Princess as equal wivesđŹ Iâm enjoying the drama but this obsession is dragging, itâs frustrating. Looks like I will keep having to use the FF button for these scenes. There is so much good material in the novel yet script writers focus on this. Is this what they think audience enjoy? They better make the princess and mother suffer a terrible death after the torture they put us through.
If drama follows novel then they have a childhood connection where ML recognise FL as the girl that saved him.…
In the novel ML recognises FL as girl from childhood in second timeline. Donât know if this will be shown in drama but would be silly if they donât given ML immediate crush on FL. Also when he saved her from drowning his response to his subordinate question was âI want her to recognise meâ implies there is a connection.
Iâm on episode 12âwhen did they get to the hand-holding stage?Yu Qiâs antics are cute, but when did he first…
If drama follows novel then they have a childhood connection where ML recognise FL as the girl that saved him. So he already has a crush on FL since then. Flaw in drama in not showing why ML suddenly in love with FL . Left viewers wondering how đ€
Looking again, it seems it will happen with ChenFeng maybe? I'm not sure if he is in bridal clothes or not in…
Iâve seen clips where ML crash the wedding and steals the bride. He gives the prince a good kick while he is at it đ so FL wonât marry the prince.
maybe because no one thought about the relationship but what he did was scary, he obsessed with her. although…
I am of the same view and hoping for a HE with Lord. Yes lordsâ actions were unacceptable but itâs not all driven by jealousy and possessiveness. Plus like you said from recent trailers Lord understands what he has done and let her go but also train bodyguard to protect her. Why can the FL regret her actions and want redemption/forgiveness but not the ML? Didnât the FL complain people still judged her for her previous actions no matter what good she does now.? Itâs clear the main CP is FL and Lord. Whether they have a happy ending together is another matter. Seems FL doesnât love ML enough to give up her wish for a peaceful life. ML unable to relinquish his responsibility as Lord or would he if he knew she loved him? Would be such a waste of time if itâs all a dream. What was the point? I donât have an issue with the dream arc if they allow sufficient time for the reality arc to explain and for everything to tie together. But so disappointed only last episode will be when FL wakes up. So much screen time for bodyguard who doesnât exist and barely any for ML character development or backstory.
I agree with your POV but One thing I would like to point out is that FL's dream to live a peaceful life. Do you…
As I said every character in the show is flawed. Bodyguard isnât as obvious because FL created him in her dreams. FL is no saint so why does she deserve better than others? FL blamed her parents for not raising her and her brother properly, not reprimanding them leading them to be who they are. Lord has been raised to be master of the manor, make decisions and control and protect his people. Thatâs what he is used to, so why does his character deserve less than FL? Or his actions judged so harshly. One wrong decision and thatâs it? What is FL trying to do all this time? Redeeming herself, driven by her fear of death and saving her family, and wanting people to give her a second chance. Not saying Lordâs actions are acceptable but neither are the FL. From the tidbits weâve seen Lord seems to understand FL better than anyone, has tried to help FL where he can, pretended to like MY to get her out of FL way when she was married to his adopted brother, he blocked her from the hot soup and if Lord hadnât rescued FL in episode 1 where would FL be? What else havenât we seen the Lord do for FL?
I agree with your POV but One thing I would like to point out is that FL's dream to live a peaceful life. Do you…
Which is why I am ok for FL not to be with Lord if he doesnât fit her ideal and unable to overcome social obstacles. No issue with bodyguard accompany FL as a loyal companion but not love interest which is the problem I have. Seems weird to me because of how they setup FL and bodyguard interaction from the beginning. I expect Bodyguard to always be there for FL since FL created him for that purpose. Probably because in real life she thought she had no one like that to depend on . Although Bodyguard hasnât always done a good job at âprotectingâ FL ⊠gets beaten up by ex hubby etc too easily đ€
As some have mentioned I donât understand the hate for Lord when his actions may be disappointing but not irredeemable and likely driven by a number of reasons not just jealousy but also misplaced concern. It is still centred around FL compared to ex-hubby who canât decide between FL and MY and is more concerned about his reputation. Characters in this drama are not perfect, all have flaws including FL. People have forgotten FL is trying to right her wrongs yet continues to try and hide what her family did. Drama did Lord character dirty by not giving him enough screen time to see his point of view and his development. This is FLâs dream and therefore FLâs wish and interpretation of events. I admire FL trying to make amends and take a different path but itâs double standards if FL canât understand or forgive Lordâs actions. For love FL drugged ex hubby and pretended they slept together. For love Lord wanted to remove bodyguard from FLâs life. I shipped FL with Lord from the beginning, there was chemistry in their interactions. But right now I am fine if she doesnât end up with Lord. Neither are perfect and itâs not a matter of FL deserves better because given what she has done and all the things Lord had done for FL itâs not clear to me who doesnât deserve whom. However I donât want to see FL develop romantic feelings for bodyguard just to follow novel ending, that FL settles for bodyguard even though still has feelings for Lord but canât overcome the obstacles. Isnât she capable of being on her own and doesnât need a man? The setup of their master / servant relationship didnât allow room for FL to be romantically attracted to bodyguard which now feels rushed and forced. Plus bodyguard doesnât exist in real life so no point rooting for him.
Thank you for sharing this. I am happy my predictions have been confirmed but thereâll be some very disappointed…
Yes I havenât read the novel but heard in the novel she ends up with the bodyguard. So was only referring to drama. Personally I donât think itâs a question of FL in her dreams choosing the bodyguard over Lord in a romantic sense but rather she doesnât pursue relationship with ML because of all the obstacles and wants a peaceful life. Bodyguard is there as her companion not a love interest. Guess consolation for those shipping bodyguard is to go read the novel âșïž I do hope we get to see more backstory of Lord to understand his thoughts/feelings and everything he has done for FL. At the moment itâs all FLâs point of view.
True spoiler of the drama and who is the endgamehttps://x.com/afterrnoont/status/1716388084521304353?s=61&t=Yrnxdn_o0bTsrl4_ZPwY7g
Thank you for sharing this. I am happy my predictions have been confirmed but thereâll be some very disappointed people based on recent comments. At least they can stop hoping bodyguard is end game although it was pretty obvious from the promo, pictures and trailers that Lord is end game and plenty of clues that bodyguard was a character Fl made up in her dreams. It was more a question of whether FL and Lord get a happy ending or open ending.
Looks like 2 groups of assassins. One from MY (with Wuâs assistance) testing to see who XLY would choose and other from the lady who wants to marry ZXW (Lord) and itâs this group of assassins who wanted to kill FL but brother died saving FL. Looking forward to seeing FL take her revenge.
Some have commented there may be two different endings. One in dream state where she choose bodyguard following the novel and one where she choose ZXW in reality. I donât believe itâs a question of who FL will choose or which ML is the end game. The promos and scenes clearly show ZXW and FL as CP. FL feeling towards bodyguard is not romantic unlike with ZXW. The question is whether FL will choose to have a relationship with ZXW given the obstacles of her background and ZXWâs status or a quiet life in the country. This dilemma is in both dream state and reality. Only difference is in dream state she has a bodyguard (who doesnât exist in reality) to accompany her who is loyal and will follow her even if she doesnât want him to. Wouldnât be surprised if this is an open ending which C drama are notorious for but better than if itâs a bad ending. Still hoping it is a happy ending with more scenes of them together though đ
