Well, today’s episode was definitely a feast for a lot of people. We got everyone in except the married trioand Gong. But that whole SD and MM thing I mean the ex-boyfriend cheater dude came in a good time to help which is nice but that’s where he should’ve just left it alone. Thankfully, she put him in his place but I think SD needs serious anger management classes, and the two of them should’ve never gotten into this relationship so soon after breaking up with cheater dude. SD thinks that just because he chased this woman for seven years that he has the right to scream and yell and throw tantrums like a 12 year-old and be jealous. Sure he can be jealous and angry as a human it’s his right, but not go completely apeshit and trash the house that’s scary. I mean, he can inadvertently hit her with all the shit he sends flying. I think she’s beginning to understand as well that she got into the relationship too fast and that she needed just some time alone to process. I mean, she got this photography studio off the ground, but doesn’t have enough actual photographers for situations like we saw today. First hire all the needed workers before you open a location.

I think we finally saw XB‘s ex girlfriend or at least her back as she walked or tried to into the store, but ran into FL and YH who sort of recognized her. And she provided her name to FL hence the drinking game that begin at the end of 14. I’m hoping that in 15 we will finally get the entire truth out from her and he can talk more about his ex without feeling like someone is stabbing him in the heart. I mean, they have to feel comfortable enough around each other to be able to talk about these things, especially with her and all of her secrets.

The conversation between FL and the little nosy sister about inviting FL and ML to her place and telling secrets is such crap. I would’ve put her in her place in two seconds flat. I would’ve been like “you know something, I understand you guys are friends, but what he and I talk about or don’t talk about and what my friends and I talk about are really none of your business.” FL has been a little too soft with some people that need a harder line. Because right now that chick still thinks she has a chance and she needs to understand she’s got zero of those.

Fingers crossed that tomorrow the secrets will all be out in the open for real about everything no more hiding.

She’s got the near perfect boyfriend our green flag ML. But she needs to be honest with him and I think that’s starting to come out as it did in today’s episode toward the end and hopefully tomorrow.

Exactly I’ve been thinking the same thing. Different relationships and different couples are different. He’s the type that doesn’t respond to yelling and verbal abuse and what not that’s not going to get him to change. I don’t think she has ever done anything for him other than the whole house over his head and somewhere to sleep and what not portion it seemed like she was a different person before they got together and then once they got married, she changed into a different person and as the time went on, she became this almost unbearable person to be around. Maybe the reason she doesn’t like his friends is because a lot of them have said the truth about her. She needs to be able to see herself and not just as a victim because she really isn’t. Or relationship especially a marriage is a two-way street. If something‘s not working it’s not always just the dude. Like you said cook him meals go away on vacations. You guys were talking about a dog before and it took you 10 years to get the dog. If you want him to focus only on you then maybe you should take some tips from the third wheel about being more respective of his stuff. Not saying he’s Mr. perfect cause Lord knows he’s screwed up like nobody’s business but many men that look outside the marriage, it’s because whatever’s happening at home isn’t making them happy. Considering the fact that he chased after her before then she had to completely change for him to be as miserable as he is. Playing devils advocate here. The other thing that got me was the fact that when she met with FL for that lunch or whatever when she asked, FL to gather evidence of AX cheating one of the things that really bothered me was that when FL asked her what are you going to do she said “kill them,” and then she kind of laughed and said “too bad that’s illegal.” That’s a massive red flag right there. She didn’t say divorce. She didn’t say anything else she just matter-of-factly said “kill them” and then in the I believe episode 18 preview you actually see her try to run him over! So this woman is not entirely right in the mind either and she can’t blame him for that. That’s her own issues.

It’s ok. Yeah I don’t understand why they couldn’t warm water up whether it’s summer or winter. Actors can act cold as opposed to the other way around where the water is freezing whether it’s the summer or the winter and then you have an actor that may get very sick. It doesn’t make any sense. If you have the extra change, you can definitely warm up water or add layers to winter costumes or take away layers for summer costumes.

Those are for winter production. I don’t get it either. Especially if the production has money.

I know they filmed back in 2023. The phones are product placement too. LYN wore a lot of Chanel jackets which he doesn’t endorse nor fit his character. Should have focused on the show now weird clothes placement.

I forgot where they filmed.

Thought process on production not the show or storyline; they filmed in the dead of summer but literally everyone for the most part wears long sleeves, pants and sometimes even sweaters. This is a modern drama. If you’re filming in the summer, dress appropriately. It’s not a costume drama, with layers regardless of season. I’ve seen similar stuff in winter filmed moderns; they pretend it’s warm outside but in btwn takes, wear heavy ass jackets freezing cold. I don’t get it. Modern dramas should have appropriate costumes for the weather as they have that option to play with. Don’t know why 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Neither; I think he’s waiting for her to open up herself and tell him. He respects her enough to let her have her space and be comfortable to tell him. Something we see little of here is respect for others and their feelings, relationships, etc.

Oooo bad girl you lol. 😝 Yeah I had a naughty streak in my hay day. I did read what you wrote; Gong is def a no. He’s artistic and he comes through for his friends but he’s a total loony tune lol. If you think about it he and Bei are total polar opposites and they have this unspoken language where they understand each other very well hence they’re able to stay friends. But most of the time I feel Bei wants to toss him down some stairs 😂. And I feel him lol. Gong is the realistic yet dramatic comic relief doofus of the group that we need. But to now understandably you and me, not dating material. I’d love to be friends with someone that eccentric and loyal to his own extent but that’s it. Everyone else (Bei not included) is a hot mess lol.

Personally for me, maybe it’s age but he’s not boring. I’d rather have a green flag like him than any of these other colorful ones with issues they keep creating for themselves. Red/morally gray flags are just not my cup of tea anymore. I’m no one’s mom nor therapist. Those are either available through parents or found through Google lol. I think They added ML as the green flag to balance out both FL and his friends. He learns as he goes. I think his flaw is not letting go of the past (his ex) because he never got closure so for her to appear in his life; that’s coming soon, will throw his world and relationship upside down. He’ll have to figure out whether he wants to live in the past or let go of his obsession and be with the woman he loves now.

That’s another topic discussed here; obsession. Like SD is with MM or the marriage trio. Everyone is a psychology case lol. But yeah give me the “boring”green flag (Weibo manhua readers also want him; think there’s a line lol), yall can have the rest.

Exactly. She’s the third wheel that keeps inserting herself when she’s unnecessary. If she loved AX as she claims, she would let him work out his marriage and whether he wants to stay or go instead of dangling herself in front of him making the dilemma worse. She’s the temptress. She’s not making things better; she’s not being the higher or better person by just letting go; she’s holding on to someone that isn’t hers and being selfish about it.

With one tall dude to measure lol.

Agreed. Sometimes just setting each other free is the absolute best choice because then you really have the options to explore every option. Sticking around just out of habit or whatever does not and won’t necessarily help unless you are very willing to work hard on the marriage and this has to come from both sides. And let the third party drift away. No verbal abuse, no playing dirty and making the other person feel even more rotten than they already do but real actual work with a licensed professional. I mean, there wouldn’t be any marriage counselors out there had that need not been there.

Other than therapy, I think that all three need to just separate and go three separate directions until they can figure out exactly what they want and whether they want to be together with anyone. AX so far has been getting the best deal because he’s not choosing one woman or the other woman meanwhile, the women one is obviously his wife, and she should be getting his primary attention and everything else while the other one I don’t even know what they are to each other to be honest. LL just seems like a temptress that as soon as AX tries to distance himself away she pulls some kind of sub story or routine to get him back claiming that she loves him, but at the same time also saying that he needs her. I think it’s become a parasitic relationship between the three. Whether AX and LL have slept together or not is beside the point, but it’s not all innocent either. It’s not like they just chill and make music and what not there’s a certain level of intimacy there that he should be reserving for his wife, not the side piece.

But he and his wife have to sit down with a marriage counselor and talk out whatever it is that they need to talk out. Because it seems like every single time they start to have some form of conversation it turns into an argument, and then it’s verbal abuse from her side and then he just runs away and nothing gets resolved. Plus that whole going to see LL’s play was incredibly spiteful and stupid and not a way to make a man whose ego is already pretty fractured in the marriage. Want to be there longer Plus that whole going to see LL‘s play was incredibly spiteful and stupid and not a way to make a man who’s ego is already pretty fractured in the marriage. Want to be there longer. He definitely got himself into that mess, but the wife isn’t helping. People are seeing her as just the victim, but she’s really not. There’s plenty of stuff that she has done that she has gone back on her word as well. A small example was before they got married they talked about having a dog after they got married she refused to until just recently. I’m not really sure what her deal is either. Does she want to stay married or is she just afraid of being single after so long. In any case everybody needs therapy and hopefully they will figure themselves out by the time the show ends probably next week at some point lol.

Some food for thought for us viewers; if AX never met LL; would he and Yu be any less miserable? LL is an added complication but the problems in their marriage don’t stem from just her alone. I think that’s something Yu may not have thought of. It’s convenient to blame LL but they have a boatload of issues from money problems to total lack of communication and so forth that has nothing to do with her.

Now why couldn’t they show us this even with out the obvious BS under covers lol: https://weibo.com/7316846334/5272715503078263

That’s what I said I think yesterday or the day before this entire group of people needs therapy first singularly and then if they’re in a relationship like they’re married couple. lol.

I think both LL and MM are self absorbed.
