Lol no. That confession proved she did have feelings for him and an attraction to him. She admitted it herself.…
Oh wait... you were asking x_AJ_x, not me... you dont agree with my interpretation. I thought x_AJ_x was adding more to ths text he/she replied to me, i didnt see the names. Blurry eyes.., my bad... just ignore my previous text...
Lol no. That confession proved she did have feelings for him and an attraction to him. She admitted it herself.…
Sorry i thought yours and @x_AJ_x replies were from one person. Eyes get blurry after staring at the screem for so long. So I was surprised @x_AJ_x could quote some part from the book but hasn't read it, but you, i know you havent read the book.
Did you see how she interacted with FFB seeing he looked like XL, there was no love there not even friends. He likes her so much he now is trying to approach her as someone else. And all the hostility he had with XY when he was XL were gone because she didnt like that part of him. If he wants her to have feelings for him and love him he had to change how he treats her and he does ass FFB. Also if he wants to protect her and himself they have to be together or else the bugs will turn into heartbreak bugs and kill the both of them.
Lol no. That confession proved she did have feelings for him and an attraction to him. She admitted it herself.…
Right, "People in real life (and drama) don't always come out and say exactly what they mean." That why we have books. The author will make sure you undedstand what was happening through her thought, actions and her narrations. If its not there then its not there. All your interpretation will only be speculation. Just like CX in the book, the only time we see him think of XY in the beginning was when she changed into a woman, when he sees XY hanging with Jing he didnt have any reaction. But the author wants you to know that he has always loved her so towards the end she made sure she explained them and show all his reactions to all the scene he saw XY and Jing spent. If its not there then youre just making up what you want because youre already bias towards that character.
The part of XY looking into the mirror is in the book, if she was looking at it like the way you said she was then the author would have stated that but no she was just looking at it casually, there was no heart racing, hearthrob, blushing etc. Its just her looking at the mirror, no reaction.
Yes the other image was XL in the water smiling, so what? He rarely smiles and is always angry but she caught him smiling. Plus there was no reaction when she saw it the first time.
This is why your interpretation don't make sense to me. she promised Jing she wouldn't let anyone into her heart for 15 years. When XL tried to pull her into the water so she would kiss him but she looked away and would rather die than kiss him. Then he took her to the island and had the conversation about her not wanting him in her dreams. Then Jing rescues her and she tells him when she was about to drown she regretted keeping her promise and whether its more important than her life but that moment when she saw him she didn't regret it at all. That means she kept her promised, she didn't let anyone in her heart. If she liked XL she would not have said this. However if you want to turn around and change everything you think happened happen then be my guess.

Dang calm down I'm just having a discussion with you. You saw her lovingly gazed at him I saw her happy getting her revenge after all the torments. When her dad asked her about him she didnt even label him as a friend but someone she's not closed to. *edit* this part is also in the novel. Unlike the drama the novel will tell you what the character is feeling at that moment and what shes thinking. if she really lovingly gazed at XL the author would have stated that that way, but she doesnt. If XY was looking at the mirror lovingly there would be some blushing, heart thumps, etc... or say shes thinking about him in a lovingly way, but also nothing... XY just looked at the mirror casually.
Ok, I'm not going to explain about the dream again. If XL really heard what she said was she liked him but doesnt want to fall for him, then him being mad in the next scene and then torments her after is a really a dumb move. I don't she how she could like him after this.
You said, "she basically confessed she has feelings for him and at the same time he knows that they can't be together. Had he confessed his feelings things might actually be different,instead he has to watch someone else take her away." Doesn't this mean the same thing as him not wanting to be with her since he's not doing anything.
"I think it's at this moment he decides to protect her from afar with the full knowledge that he won't ever be able to be with her." If your interpretation means they won't be together then he can't protect her because the one armed man said " the couples couldn't live together, they might also be killed by the poisonous bugs." Instead of protecting her he's just killing her and himself. The bugs in them wouldnt be love bugs anymore but heartbreak bugs. So they will literally die if theyre not together.
How can it be a thrill now but no feelings when it happened? It's like going to the beach with your friend and watching the sunset. Then you go to the beach with your beloved and you want to do something romantic with him so you thought about all the other times you've been to the beach with others. And you remembered what you and your friend did, sat around the beach and watched the sunset.
nope it wasn't playing on her mind, if it was then they would have showed it., but everything that happened with Jing happened because it was shown to us.
Let's stop her, you sound cranky and probably don't want to hear from me anymore... believe what you want to believe
No, she doesn’t want 9 headed demon in her dreams. Meaning she doesn’t want to fall for him. It won’t be…
Ofcourse there would be a possibility. Kissing is a very intimate action between 2 people, who wouldn't develop feelings after a kiss, especially during acient times. And especially her who has never kissed anyone before(who doesnt know about the first kiss with XL because she was unconcious) and probably thinks somethingwill developif she kisses him.
Yes she looked fondly of the image because he constantly tortments her and she was able to get back at the legendary nine head demon, that doesn't mean she has feelings for him. When her father asked who he was she didn't even label him as a friend but someone she's not close with.
I get it she thinks he's good looking but that doesn't mean she like likes him. She's very afraid of him, she used the word scared more than once in her dialogue. How can she be afraid of him and have feelings for him at the same time? She even said "I was going to pretend I didn't know you" after becoming a woman, probably to try and end her interaction with him.
After hearing all this XL got really mad because she just told him she didnt like him and didnt want to fall in love with him . He then tortures her some more and she almost died from it. If what she said implies she liked him even a little wouldn't he be happy? But when he saw Jing rescued her and carried her to shore he looked sad. He was holding his chest where his heart is at, moaning in pain and he had to used his power to lessen it. That shows the bug is already hurting him. And you can hear the old man with one arm's voice come up explaining what will happen if the couple aren't together dies together. Because XL can see who she's really falls for and has feelings for.
XY never said anything about nightmares. Not wanting XL in her dreams, means not acknowledging she might be in…
Ok let's go with your interpretation, she does want to kiss XL because she's afraid of him becoming the man of her dreams. And in the dialogue she's saying she doesn't want him to be the man of her dream even if the possibility is very small. If it happens it would be more terrifying than death. Her saying all this doesn't mean she has feelings for him.
The sentence "although the possibility is very small", how does this applies to someone who already has feelings for him? I already like you so if I kiss you then there's a small chance I will fall in love with you? That doesn't sound right or make sense. It applies if she doesn't have feelings for him.
If she was never afraid of him then why did she run away from him for 3 days and stayed at ZX, after drawing on his face? Someone not as afraid would not do that. Everytime after he tortures her she's on her knees hunched over grabbing his legs and begging for forgiveness. And how can you say shes not afraid when she used the word scared more than one in that dialogue.
Yes, you can drown if you put your head in a sink full of water. Even if she drowns she wouldn't die right away. There's a reason she doesn't die instantly and it has something to do with XL, but I won't discussed it because you haven't read the novel. Also, Jing came in time to save her that's why she didn't die.
If you walk from place to another isn't torture, but walking from one place to another in a typhoon or blizzard then thats different, and you'll have to walk for a long time. You can't compare walking to swimming. It's really hard to swim in the ocean, I know because I was raised on an island and go to the beach alot. So swimming in the ocean isn't easy, if she swam a certain direction and the strong current doesn't flow the same direction then she has to use alot of strength to stay on course. In the ocean the current isn't her only challenge, she also has to fight the waves. The waves will come at you constantly, so before you could even catch your breath another one will hit you. Then there's the sizes of the waves, if a big one hit you even if you had time to catch you breath it may not be enough, it'll push you under and you'll drown just like the one that hit XY in the show. I used to swim in high-school so I know how tiring it is to swim a few laps in a pool vs her swimming for hours in the open ocean. She has to use every inch of muscle in her body, if her muscle cramps up she wouldn't be able to swim anymore. So this is torture.
No, the bugs wouldn't kill them right away. If it wasnt the bug tormenting him Can you explain to me what was happening to XL when he was grabbing his chest where his heart was and moaning in pain, then pouring power to it to try and lessen it? And why do you hear the old one arm man explaining what will happen to them if they're not together? This happens right after he sees Jing and XY together.
Of course no, she already likes him, why she looking at him in her mirror? But she doesn’t want like such person…
Ive read the novel more than once and never thought XY loved XL in the beginning. She might of fall for him later but after she had broken up with Jing. They can be soulmates but doesnt mean she liked him.
If he was happy then why did he torture her to the point she drowned and almost died?
If this novel is an exception because FL ends up with a nice guy then it can also be an exception where the FL doesn't like the bad boy.
XY never said anything about nightmares. Not wanting XL in her dreams, means not acknowledging she might be in…
Heres the dialogue: XY: because I'm scared. XL: scared of what? XY: you, I'm scared of you... XL: Kissing me would be more terrifying than death? XY: My brother, CX, once chatted with me one night. He laughed at me for being a girl who still daydreams. XL: continue... XY: although... although the possibility is very small. I'm scared that i might accidentally let you into my dreams. You are no way the type to be in a girl's dream. This is probably more terrifying than death... XL: *smiles and laughs*
She does say shes afraid of him. Dreams are what you hope for or like. She doesn't want him in her dream because she doesnt want to hope for him or like him. How do you know she already liked him when she said all those things? She said all those things because she doesnt want to like him.
No chance of her drowning? She literally went under, that means she drowned. If he wasnt pissed at her then why torture her for no reason especially she just told him shes scared of him. Dude she swam for so long she was exhausted and went under, which means shes far away from land, and this is coming from a person who loves to swim but has low power. How does torturing anyone would make them change their minds.
"I'm doing this for your good. What if I'm too gentle and considerate to you and accidentally enter your dream making your life worse than death? Wouldn't that be a sin?" This is what he say to her after pushing her away from his arm, he sounds mad to me.
When XL watched Jing carried XY to shore after rescuing her, XL grabbed his chest clutching in pain, then you can hear the old man with one arm telling XL about how the bug will take his life and heart. How the couple couldn't live together then they might be killed by the poisonous bugs, which means the bugs turned in the heartbreak bugs.
Of course no, she already likes him, why she looking at him in her mirror? But she doesn’t want like such person…
)Watching the mirror doesnt mean anything. He tortured her so much, watching those moments made her happy because she wwas able to tease him. She never said i liked you but because... youre just speculating. Also. XL wasnt happy when he laughed and smiled, it more like i couldnt believe what i just heard.
Lol no. That confession proved she did have feelings for him and an attraction to him. She admitted it herself.…

Anyway, i just typed you the whole dialogue
First of all she states that she's scared of him. If she had feeling for him then she wouldnt be afraid of him. Nothing here implies that she has feelings for him. She doesnt want to kiss him doesn't mean she already has feelings for him. Kissing is a very intimate process between 2 people, especially in ancient times. I don't think she can just kissed anyone and not feel a thing. So she's telling XL that if she kissed him she might start to have feelings for him. "Even if its just a small chance" which means there's a chance the kiss may not develop into anything because she's too afraid of him. When people talk about their feelings they don't compare to death, but she did because she doesnt have any.
How did you get all that stuff about him worried about them being together from her "confession" from the smile and laugh? If he didn't want to be with her then why come all the way to Haoxing and attend her ceremony then tricked the sister to pushed her into the ocean. If he doesnt want them together then why even try to kiss her? Youre contradicting yourself. That smile and laugh was not because he's happy, if it was then he wouldn’t have made her swim back in the dangerous deep sea almost killing herself. Also when he watched Jing carries XY to shore after rescuing her, XL grabbed his chest clutching in pain, then you can hear the old man with one arm telling XL about how the bug will take his life and heart. How the couple couldn't live together then they might also be killed by the poisonous bugs, which means the bugs turned in the heartbreak bugs.
In the novel, XY wanted to kiss Jing in the pond, he pulled away and swam up. She asked him why, and he responded "because you didn't have me in your eyes back there" if she's thinking about XL then why is she kissing another man. She wants to do something intimate underwater with Jing. So she thought of the time she had to touch lips with XL for a puff of air. And because she was thinking about XL he didn't see himself in her eyes. She thought about XL not because she misses him and was thinking about him but because she wanted to imitate what she and XL did underwater with Jing.
XY never said anything about nightmares. Not wanting XL in her dreams, means not acknowledging she might be in…
Ok, when she says im afraid of you and dont want you in my dreams, that would be more terrifying than death, sounds like a nightmare... anyway she says she doesnt want to kiss him because she doesnt want to fall in love with him, even if its just a small chance. So she just acknowledged that she doesnt love him and doesnt want to. Thats why he was so pissed and let her swim back on her own causing her to almost drown to death...
Did you see how she interacted with FFB seeing he looked like XL, there was no love there not even friends. He likes her so much he now is trying to approach her as someone else. And all the hostility he had with XY when he was XL were gone because she didnt like that part of him.

Nope
She said "I'm scared of you."
The large wave hit her and she went under. If you can controll the water then why even let the large wave hit her.
Ok lets stop here
Ok, I'm not going to explain about the dream again. If XL really heard what she said was she liked him but doesnt want to fall for him, then him being mad in the next scene and then torments her after is a really a dumb move. I don't she how she could like him after this.
