i appreciate that FL helf true to herself and made it clear that she didnt appreciate being abandoned by her mother and later ML. She would rather be alone and keep her love in her heart than let ML do as he wills without her input. ML regrets his actions and understand he cant force his way with her because he starts to truly understand her as a person. that was well done.

the pace was very slow though amd she spent alot of time building a romance with Yao. then it took forever to fall for ML but then they had like 3-4 eps of happiness before it all came crumbling down and we realized that everything ML wasnt necessarily for FL - he had hidden motives. The chem went offline and then they reunited at the last ep. that left me feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

that scene with the empress at the end. ugh. I cried so much. the first person that FL felt sincere love from 😭

I have such mixed feelings about this show. Everytime I was frustrated, something was. so endearing that I had to fall back into the groove of it. I really appreciated seeing an empress and consort that weren’t constantly scheming and actually had a sisterhood. All the characters had a personality and reason for existing in the story - to help further the plot or OTP’s character development. The characters make mistakes and are acknowledge them and make an effort to change. Character flaws made it a little relatable. I wasn’t in love with the parts, but the sum of the parts came together- from the frustrating separations to the heartwarming memories.

you are telling me he just chilled on the side of a mountain for two days after massive injuries from a chaotic fight followed by jumping off side of cliff? How is he alive?? 😂 I know these dramas require some suspension of disbelief, but wow on this one 🤣

holllld on a minute…ep 49….

oh boy. now this ship is really in trouble…there goes to watching a couple work together to solve problems. 😮‍💨 I am questioning this MDL rating.

when ML found FL in the prison in Tong…can’t remember name of city…, the reunion seemed lacking. There has been no sense of intimacy since that point.

I’m at ep 47…this show lost a lot of its charm around ep 44-45. ML and FL were getting closer but now the chemistry is gone. The pace and tone of the drama feels different too.

ML’s thin lips that almost become non-existent when he is scowling or angry (which is 90% of the drama) is driving me bonkers 😬

I see your pfp 😂coming here after that drama, you will be veryyyy disappointed 😂 🤣 gawd I miss Jiao Jiao and Tingyan. I mean. This is a different type of story. We are watching a 15 year old grow and discover love. So no attacks 😂but. yeah. This is super slow burn.

👌🏼 I’m almost there. I’ll hang on 😂 Thanks!

it’s up .1! 😁 but honestly, it’s deserves more! Think if the amazing journey and what is said in the unspoken…maybe they didn’t clearly draw out the whole pic at the end, but we know their beautiful journey so we can fill in the blanks 🥰🥲😅

do you mind giving me a spoiler of when there’s actual romance between the two? 😅I’m at ep 25 and it’s still very uncertain

when ML rebukes FL’s mom to not interrupt him at ep 24 😂 🤣 finally, someone shuts that woman up

Slowburn is one thing, but I can’t when there are so many other men involved and FL gives them the time of day…and here, it’s more than time of day. I thought I would have to worry about SML…but TML?? IDK how FL and ML will even have an interactions with how sheltered (restricted) FL ultimately is and how busy ML is. When can I expect any romance between ML and FL? Even if it was slowburn but true OTP - something like Story of Minglan - I wouldn’t mind, but watching her develop a ship with one guy…the wrong guy 😂 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🤷🏻‍♀️

Too bad I watch Blossom before this fell for LYR. I’m now afraid I’ll have SML Syndrome. 🙈 I hope ML isn’t one that will scowl the entire drama 😬 It’ll make me watch LYR even more closely 😂

how much longer will I have to deal with FL’s mother being like this? I get what her mother is trying to educate her but the way she is going about it, she IS the one sowing discord. She is constantly putting FL down and then putting Yangyamf on a pedestal.

Ep. 2 - Establish need for skinship to keep ML cool from Spirit Fire heat 😍
Ep. 5 - Start sleeping next to each other (yup starts that early)
Ep. 6 - FL finds out about his clan and understands his plight
Ep. 7 - FIRST kiss. I know. already!
Ep. 11 - ML verbalizes his affection for her
Ep. 13 - OMG! This ep! 🤤😍They are so meant for each other
Ep. 14 - it’s official coupledom

Anyone who needs spoilers for ep markers:

There’s nothing. I might have to take a drama break…and if you see my drama count, that’s a big statement 😭
