“…he was raped and being forced to marry and care for this child which I’m sure isn’t his since the maid…
Yahh I’m sure FFYY didn’t get her way with him. I’m just saying at this point drama-wise, all Jing probably knows is he got raped since she’s preggers and all he remembers is the morning after. And I feel bad for him bc that’s on top of alllll the other things that have been forced upon him already.
Ooo thanks for the novel tidbits. I think I’m just going to read the novel. I can’t be waiting around like this for an entire year. All I do is replay and replay but it doesn’t hit the same when I know the ending his him getting that purple fish core back in tears.
Yes, he’s such a sad character and then all people do is call him “weak”or “boring.” TH made XL a selfless…
Crazy, I don’t think this guy is weak at all. He takes calculated steps in the background to make sure he doesn’t hurt anyone but still benefits those he cares about. Actually come to think of it, when has he ever done anything for himself? He’s presented as such a selfless hero. I guess one can say whenever he helps XY he’s doing something for himself… His character is so noble that the scene with him drunk at the casino and with him with the ice dagger at her neck was startling to me. Like wow what happened to Jing! With XL or CX, those guys would have murdered people already out of hatred.
Finally finished s1. I shouldn’t have started this drama. Now all there’s left for me is sadness and emptiness. Spoilers below if you haven’t finished s1.
Jing’s character probably has to be one of the saddest characters I’ve seen in a while. This guy is written as a kind genius who has never once done anything bad to anyone. His brother tortured him but he still doesn’t seek revenge. He’s rich and excellent at what he does, business, finance etc. He cares and respects his elders. He’s at the top of his clan but all he is and ever was, was a chess piece for people. No one seems to want to be around him for true friendship. (except 1 of course, no wonder why he didn’t want to go back to his old life, it’s awful) They all need his title and his support. Fenglong maybe wanted to be his brother when he was younger but now it’s also for his clan’s support. CX obvs is just using him. His own grandmother who he respects also just wants him to marry that nasty woman for the benefit of the clan.
He never asks for anything except the love of his life and nothing else. And he’s constantly being forced between rocks and hard spots - his grandma’s death, his fiancée’s “suicide”, now his “kid” like all this is so sad. Basically, what he knows right now is that he must be the clan leader and he was raped and being forced to marry and care for this child which I’m sure isn’t his since the maid had something to tell him, AND his brother seemed overly eager to see the child. Ugh. I hope he gets some wins in the next season. My heart aches for him. I like how the drama made him have white hairs. This guy is being tortured by those around him. Sad
No, him taking over doesn't mean he can just cancel the engagement
Why not? He’s head of the household, and with grandmama gone, he doesn’t have to answer to anyone. I’m just so frustrated watching this. Esp after he and her almost died to be together and he made that promise that he would never abandon her but now he’s forced to abandon her AND himself pretty much.
I’m still on episode 33 trying to savor this drama. At the part where tushan grandma says she has no more than 6 months to live so Jing has to take over as head of family. Jing says no. But why?? if he takes over as head, then he’d have the power to cancel the engagement with Yiying, no?
Not XY & jing’s maid making me tear up at work😭😭. I love how the maid said, you don’t understand do…
i was wondering who would tell her of the pain and sorrow TSJ had to go through while she was comatose. esp since she mentioned that Jing hadn’t even asked of her or brought her medicine like Xuan did. I was thinking GURL HE IS QUITE LITERALLY ACTIVELY DYING FOR YOU.
Yo when is season 2 gonna air. Gonna be hell waiting.
I def shouldn’t have started this drama. it was a quiet evening when I thought I’d just watch one episode. it didn’t look that good anyway. and now I’m 32 episodes in obsessing over the next episodes. I only do two things now, watch and then rewatch. that’s it.
