someone with better perspective please explain to me- why these young people go on 1 date, or see each other a few times- then jump straight to proposal or marriage?? isn’t it too quick? was that the norm back in 1980s?
From initially marveling at a female‑centric drama—a delicate dance of wit and the charm of loving Shan Bao—to…
yes, one dimensional character- FL - too intelligent, cold, calculating, foresee everything, playing everyone. limited facial expressions, not interesting as a romance character.
Am I the only one who feels frustrated because a proper and strategic investigations are rarely accomplished and…
yep, there is no vulnerability to her, which makes her character kind of 1 dimensional- cold, calculating, manipulative, all knowing, playing everyone with a little smirk. It doesn’t work for romance.
I like to be hopeful and think they can fix things some way some how and I acted as such in these past few episodes…
agree with you, this whole show end up being about how amazing calculating shrewd cold the FL is and she can fool everyone. It’s not balanced. I also found her huge eyes not very expressive- in that it always looked blank or slowly calculating. Her whole face is either blank, or only a hint of smile. her face is beautiful but boring to look at over time. if I were a man, this is not the woman I would want. And the romance is lacking in this drama, it doesn’t really hit you ever, part due to the writing/directing, also. partly because of FL personality. she is never truly open or vulnerable.
Loved the scheming in last episode! Bring it on leads! 4 th sister is best at shouting and glaring, no brain at all! Please get rid the annoying cousin! I feel there must be a backstory to Yan
Neither was he her priority. She chose him because he was the safest option at the time. She hid the truth about…
during that interrogation, someone blurted out there is a brother who got chased away and sent to the mountains.. I didn’t hear clearly, I’ve been wondering if he has a backstory where he was wronged by family
help please- confused about old man at ancestral hall. grandma said “ he doesn’t deserve to be grandpa”. So is he actually grandpa (as in the union that created the children), or is he just a lover but no kids produced?? thanks 🙏
these 2 are the most dull and passionless leads ever. What romance? I can’t believe such emotionless people can be famous ballet dancer and wine maker, both of which require creativity and intense feeling.
I would much prefer watching their younger versions. Story would be better if 90% on their younger selves, and then a conflict resolution after..say 2 years apart.

truly enjoying this- serious, engaging, historical, such comradery to root for.
A real refreshing change from romance and custome dramas
What happened to the suitcase of US money that he got??
