This bastard Yu Jing Xiu likes competent and intelligent women, but because of his prejudice against his mother, he ended up with the village idiot, Ya Ke 😂. He’s totally capable of quietly getting rid of her once he’s had enough of her 😂.
For a historical one... A Journey To Love. Starring Liu Yuning and Liu Shishi. A very beautiful show with a beautiful…
Have you tried A Dream of Splendor, The Story of Ming Lan, The Legend of Zhuohua, or The Rebel Princess? They feature veteran actors, but these dramas are absolutely exceptional
Zhao Ling… this anger, this surprising cruelty, and at the same time, it’s so satisfying. 😭🔥 This black-flag side of him I was NOT ready for it! 😂 He has this funny little side that makes him seem harmless, when in reality, he’s been a smuggler from the very beginning. 😂
He has given me more emotion and satisfaction than all those generals we’ve had lately, who had nothing but reputation when it came to cruelty and aura. 🔥 That look in his eyes, filled with murderous intent… 🥶👀
There’s no slow burn here: their feelings are so obvious. It’s never one-sided. From the moment they started trusting each other, their feelings became clear. It’s a fast attraction, but above all, a very natural one. They’ve shared life-and-death situations, protected each other, and constantly pushed each other to move in the right direction.
He cares so much about her reputation and is careful not to hurt her, even indirectly. He’s also incredibly considerate toward her. And she, on the other hand, has placed her hopes in him without hesitation and trusts him enough to believe that he won’t disappoint her or himself.
The way they look at each other shows just how deeply they’re falling for each other. Despite their hesitations and the restraint between them, they’re aware that it’s still too early to put their feelings into words, but they already know what they feel.
It had been such a long time since I watched a drama where, as early as episode 11, you could be certain that the feelings were completely mutual on both sides, without having to suffer through 20+ episodes before they’re finally ready to walk hand in hand as a couple.
They don’t keep secrets from each other and they share their thoughts very quickly. There’s so much communication between them. What a blessing to finally see a couple develop feelings for each other at the same pace, without the relationship feeling completely unbalanced.
Fan Ya Ke will sell all her father's manuscript before sundown. Such a foolish character.
The worst part is that it’s the only truly valuable and worthwhile thing in her dowry. Just wait until that hypocrite Yu Jing Xiu discovers the truth… Yu Ke might find herself in serious trouble, and she’s going to start losing this man’s sympathy.
I think even she marries a scholar, it would turn out good.She's not satisfied with herself.
You’re right, she would have spent her entire time looking down on that poor guy. She plays the victim, but she’s the first one to look down on poor people and judge them based on prejudice. She has always lived in a certain amount of comfort, yet she considers herself a beggar even though she has never had to endure hunger for a single day. 🙄💀
You can be blind and naive to everything but the person you wanna marry can resort to ruining a girl reputation…
I wonder if she knows that it was Yu Jing Xiu who orchestrated Ting Yun’s downfall, because he told her, “I’m willing to stand up to my mother.” I can’t tell whether she knows or not. But if she does, then she’s more than just blind she’s a lost cause. A fleeting pleasure for an eternal regret.
Ting Yun is truly the queen she thinks she is. 👑 Sitting there calmly and elegantly, without a shred of pity, watching Fan Ya Ke beg and being forced to stamp her fingerprint on her confession. What a satisfying moment! 👏
Until the very end, Ting Yun remained diplomatic, while Ya Ke had completely lost her composure, once again resorting to her constant victimization. Back then, Ting Yun was even willing to marry that good-for-nothing Yu Jing Xiu because she knew she could clearly handle the situation and go toe-to-toe with her mother-in-law. Even though Yu Jing Xiu wasn’t attracted to her, she was willing to make sacrifices to build a proper marriage. It was a thoughtful and strategic decision.
But Ya Ke is an idiot who simply wants to be adored by others and feel superior in order to compensate for her own weaknesses. She walked straight into the tiger’s den with no weapon to defend herself, except for her completely unfounded conviction that she possessed a man’s affection. She herself paved the road to her own misery. 🤦♀️
That line was harsher than a slap. The way Madam Yu looks at you is exactly the same way my grandmother used to look at Madam Zuo. 💀
Getting married into a noble family without understanding what you’re getting yourself into is worse than being blind. She could easily have found a good scholar who was willing to love her and with whom she could have lived safely. But no… she chose this path. In short, an idiot. 🤷♀️
Ep3-5I can try to understand mrs zuo (just bitter and greedy) and her stupid brother (spoilt scum) but Mr Yu and…
They deserve each other so much. She constantly plays the victim and invents an imaginary competition with Ting Yun. Wake up, girl: you’re not the center of the universe. 🙄
And Mr. Yu is even worse. He deliberately ruins the life of a woman who did absolutely nothing to him, never gets caught, and then keeps playing the victim. 🤡
They’re a couple of self-absorbed crybabies who whine about everything and nothing. Pathetic.
Fan Ya Ke is making me laugh! 😂 Girl, you’re not even married yet, and you’ve already betrayed a friend, insulted your father, and sold his work, all just to keep humiliating yourself over and over again. 🤦♀️💀 Can you imagine After doing all that, they don’t even end up getting married! What a plot twist! 😂
No one knows that Yu Jing Xiu is the mastermind behind the destruction of Ting Yun’s reputation, right? This guy could become a real antagonist. He hates Ting Yun and, by extension, Zhao Ling. He could end up being the one who causes them the most trouble and puts the biggest obstacles in their way.
Okay my problem with Ya Ke is that she was portrayed as the daughter of a great scholar and I just think she's…
I think she is someone very bad. Her so called best friend just died and she doesn’t care at all; she continues her life as if nothing happened.
She is extremely cruel. She is a woman, she knows what happens to a woman when her reputation is ruined, yet she did what she did. It shows that, in the end, she is capable of much worse as long as it goes her way. She deserves all the suffering that is going to happen to her.
Deep down, she must have hated Ting Yun, given her jealousy and her inferiority complex. She lets her servant get into her head and say anything and everything because that is what she herself feels but does not want to admit, and it is easier for her conscience if it is her servant who can put it into words.
A guy who wrecks someone’s whole life just to dodge a marriage, and a girl who turns around and uses that exact…
A couple truly united by the heavens. 😂
She will certainly become a victim of this man’s schemes one day. Yu Jing Xiu didn’t hesitate to ruin a woman’s life to achieve his goals. The day she becomes a problem for him, he won’t hesitate for a second to use all kinds of schemes to make her disappear.
And honestly, this man isn’t even that smart. He’ll end up becoming a victim of his own decisions as well. A truly evil couple of idiots. 😂
Her friend tried to protect her and her father tried to warn her. She's not ruthless enough to be a social climber.…
The ladder she chose to climb the ranks isn’t sturdy enough. She’s going to fall from a very great height. When that moment comes, she’ll realize that her father’s advice and the frugal life he led allowed him to live safely. As for the friendship she sacrificed, she will suffer even worse because of it and will be unable to pick herself back up.
As I suspected, Fan Ya Ke doesn’t have the ability to maneuver against her mother in law. “Hold a man’s heart” what foolishness. A man’s affection is as fleeting as the life of a flower: if you bring him nothing, if you have no common interests, or even a bond strong enough to have shared life and death together, and if you are not intelligent enough to understand the stakes, he will turn away from you without hesitation.
She should first have tried to gain her mother-in-law’s favor before that of a husband who has not yet climbed the ranks and who is not yet the authority in the household. This girl is going to burn herself with the fire that she has taken into her own hands.
