Sorry. I had stage 3 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and I fought that AH for 12 yrs. At my strongest points, i had rad and chemo therapies for a number of years and that (excuse my language) shit is no fkng joke.
With her at Stage 4, its just about as clear as you can get to pronouncing a death sentence no matter how you look at it. It's very hard trying to fight when you know just your appearance alone brings down the mood in your family. I was a twig. FL struck a nerve personally, I used to get so mad and frustrated at my sisters and parents for dumping their arguments on me through tears like that. I'm the eldest of 4. I DID, however, meet my wife through it though. She was and is and forever will be my cardiologist and mother of my children. But It's really hard to........idk....just live........when you can't eat or do much. Ya got poison running through your body to kill a poison that's already there. Entire body aches nonstop. Pain meds further the issue of keeping food down. Veins and arteries collapsing. I slept soooo much. 2 heart attacks within 18 months. So I think she was wrong to levy an emotional attack like that at ML. Surprisingly, my wife agrees, says it's because their relationship is too new to even dare inflict something like that~

i have to disagree....all the actions were very realistic....the empress would use the marquis' son to threaten…
hhmmm....he knows that the grandmother killed her....but am a little hazy on whether he knows about the actions of her father and his brother's.....how they tormented her for the edict....he may be under the impression that her mother handed over the edict to the consort dowager....you may be right...but i wonder if this gap in knowledge may be the cause of mxy's anger.....like you said, he's not dumb....and he does truly love ye li....oh!! also mostly i think he is angry bcos she had the opportunity to tell him....so her not telling him means that she doesn't trust/love him like she said she did.....maybe THAT is the cause and not her mother's actions at all...
ml's friend and his family is so...... strange idk i dont like that plot he's a stalker at this point and it is…
It’s good that he’s being called out on it by that girl though. That’s different from most dramas where that behavior is considered normal. His parents are definitely overbearing but it’s done in a more humorous way compared to many other dramas. If they manage a good transformation of his character, that couple may be nice
ml's friend and his family is so...... strange idk i dont like that plot he's a stalker at this point and it is not romantic and the behaviour of his parents is not normal he's a grown ass man

I realized at the end it was tying into the plot, since the divorce and him going up the mountain to get her reveals…
My main gripe here is characters suddenly acting out of character and ML forgetting their experiences together and his own promises. I saw this edict thing going to be a problem from a mile away, but they blew it out of proportions.
Def should have been a better way to create conflict. Don't even need to go far for an example, FL's previous drama had a well designed spat - both characters acting in character, both having their own reasonable truth, can sympathize with both to a varying degree.

Nope, not buying it. Episode 30 is nothing but bunch of lazy entertainment writing where intelligent people become…

Chinese writers love this coughing up blood trope. In my forty decades on earth I have never seen blood coughing…
I swear the production budget for these dramas is 10% wardrobe, 10% actors, and 80% fake blood packets just waiting for someone’s feelings to get hurt.
Chinese writers love this coughing up blood trope. In my forty decades on earth I have never seen blood coughing in real life, but it happens to multiple characters in every Chinese drama I watch. Now they are even coughing blood from emotional damage!
