I wanted to see these things as well. Minus the kiss - I never really enjoy an Asian drama kiss. They always look…
@Jiejie Ugh! Yes! Those dead fish kisses are horrible! 🤣 But, there are other good kisses out there besides POB: Pursuit of Jade; Story of Kuning Palace; Blossoms of Power (He Yu, He Yu, He YU!!!!! 🤣), just to name some. 😁
1. Romance - emotional spark and passionate feeling2. Relationship building - practical structure and long-term…
@Jiejie I wanted #1, but I knew not to expect it. Based on their characters and based on the actors, I just wasn't expecting hot kissing scenes 🤣 As for #2, I think they are already bound by all they've been through and have learned who they each are and that they can rely on each other.
Can i ask how many have finish watching this drama, i'm asking because i have not finish watching and i'm seeing…
I finished it and must say the drop in rating doesn't surprise me. The reveal in last 3 episodes was unexpected for me, but the last 3 1/2 epsiodes dragged with that reveal and we barely saw the leads, etc. I think the story is good. The whole cast of actors, from the leads to supports, were good. It was just the editing, directing and delivery that fell short and I think that's what brought it down. But, there may be lots of people who haven't finished it and when they do, ratings may go up again.
This drama is unfortunately suffering from some absolutely crazy pacing issues. Not sure if a lot had to be cut…
@eggierollie I agree with you, but I plan to watch the rest of the episodes because I can't give up on this roller coaster ride after watching 24 episodes. I've got to see it through. But definitely, it has been a hot mess and I've hung on because of the Xu Kai, and all actors, and because I kept hoping it would get better.
imagine waking up one morning and realizing that you forced your son to marry the family that ended up killing…
I think she absolutely deserves the constant agony and reminder when looking at her daughter-in-law every day of her life. That's her reward for scheming and ruining her son's happiness and she should have to swallow that bitter pill several times a day forever. (Even though we know the Heir was never meant to marry FL in the storyline.)
Thoughts after episode 38 — may include SPOILERS• "Father, mother... You heard what he said too, right?"…
I was also reminded of Pride & Prejudice when I first started watching this story. I strongly agree it has that Jane Austen & Pride & Prejudice depth and delivery. If this were a US movie, I would cast my vote for an Oscar for the writers/directors of this story! (if my vote could count for something as far as getting a story an Oscar nomination)!
Psshh🤫 the thing with this drama is just dont ask question, they just do it with no proper explanation for…
Good point. I said editing cause some of it looks like "cut & paste", but honestly, I am no expert. It could very well be that they just didn't film lots of things and here we are with (what I think is) this hot (yet fun) mess. It seems to me they insisted on squeezing all into 30 episodes when they could have gone to anywhere between 36-40 episodes. All-in-all, so far, I have enjoyed it because I really like the actors (leads & support) and the story. I hope the last 5 episodes and ending will not be a total disappointment.

This story is good. Actors are good. The directing and editing HORRIBLE! I've stuck it out by choosing to ignore the bad and focus only on the actors and the roller coaster ride! 🤣 I suppose lots of people have done same cause otherwise this wouldn't have this high rating.
I truly cannot understand how this has an 8.8 rating when it should be a 10 all the way through. This is the best…
I agree 100000%! Up to epsiode 36, each one is a 10 for me! And I am pretty confident each episode to come will be a 10 as well. I asked same thing earlier here and someone replied that we need to review/rate each individual epsiode. Guess that's what helps raise the overall score/rating #. So I went epsiode by epsiode and rated them.
Agree!!
