FL seems a little too carefree and even mischievous around ML considering her traumatic/hardened past. Is she…
Yes and no I guess 😅 She is strategizing even when just walking through a room or passing a person - she is a genius in her field, facing anyone she automatically plans 3-5 steps ahead ,like playing 5d chess not even consciously at this point. She uses others perception of her as an easy-going, laid-back happy personality a lot - rarely lets her emotions take over ,plus she rather be happy than sad - well until she has some heads to count,then all hats and heads are off 🤣🤣 She is playing pretend in so many ways ,but also inherently she is a very resilient person - she tries her best even when in the worst of circumstances, doesn't let herself dwell on things ( especially things she can't change ) which obviously catches up to her every once in a while, she doesn't really trust anyone and rarely if ever acknowledges or expresses her real emotions and even when sad , won't let herself feel self-pity,like she'll joke around and try to make it sound silly I cried so many times reading her inner monologue and memories ❤️🩹❤️🩹
Brother Fei Nu ,the fate of star-crossed lovers tale of love depends on you 💞May the Red Birthmark of Lovers thread help you matchmake ( Shen Han sends his earnest regards ) 💓💌💘
I literally went "gurl " 😳🥵 when HY went back to "oopps I'm blind " while wearing the entire spy get up and then I had to scream🫣🫣🫣 " Where you going,how deep can that bathtub beeeee ?!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Help ! Assassins " - literally takes out half of them basically using clumsiness as a weapon and then has the audacity to scream in horror as she puts the knife back in to the assassin's heart 🤣🤣
Btw anyone complaining about FL's bubbly demeanor just has to watch the fight in ep 9 and how she shows absolutely…
He Yan literally plays 5D with everyone, including herself cause she is way too into ( I'm not like other girls so I absolutely don't melt when XJ do his thing) 🤣🤣
I can't imagine anyone but ZY as Hen Yan the legendary star general - the little moments,like her eyes,her body language,her subtle hints to her past as a prodigy - cause she is originally absolutely menace of a genius of hard work ♥️ And don't get me started on CL as Xiao Jue *chef's kiss* 🤌🤌🤌
Okay, here's a little fun fact : (from the novel ) In ep 9 around 13 minute run, when He Yan is teasing Xiao Jue and he puts a robe on her - there's a koi fish 🎏embroidery/print on it (around her head ) -It's Cheng Li Su's as HY is pretending to be CLS and has his clothes : Apparently his father used koi fish to court CLS's mother and so they believe Koi fish became their matchmaker,so to speak their good luck charm , so Cheng Li Su has koi fish print/embroidery basically on all of his clothes 💖
As someone who read the novel, the series could’ve been great for me if I didn’t read it yet. In the novel,…
I feel you 🥹 While understandable - the 36 ep/30 minute while the original story had so many characters, backstory,plot and storylines,plus all the the different arcs and subtle moments ..so I literally reread the novel as I watch the drama 🤣 I also actively remind myself - this is an adaptation - ENJOY the ride 🤣🤣
I love the drama 😍 Obviously they go on a fast pace ,but considering the material had to be triple edited,plus like 1/3 of it solely went editing Cheng Li Su's character, like 10-20 % of the original scenes had to be cut down .
Also it's reduced to 36 episodes like basically 30 minute run , even with the transmigration storyline scratched out and the some ,the original novel had so much going on ,at least 5-7 different arc focused solely during the Army training before the "middle"of the story ,I am just here to enjoy it all 💕
The actors are just superb - I am obsessed with ZY and CL - the acting,the chemistry, EVERYTHING 😍 I can't imagine anyone else but those two - they literally breath like their characters ♥️ The supporting cast is fun to watch , the episodes are action-packed with little to no filters.
Can't wait for the next episodes - He Yan X Xiao Jue the bickering era is here 🤣🤣
Ikr!!! I really hope they keep the misunderstanding he has regarding the cp's relationship in the beginning esp…
I feel betrayed 😭😭 I was so looking forward for the epic star-crossed bl love story brought to us by ever-romantic Shen Han 🥹 A-Han ,aya A-Han 🫤 Obviously had to reread that part to brighten my mood 🤣🤣 At least,we still have " A memory of red birthmark ",a lover's thread of woman deeply loved by the commander 🥹🥹🤣🤣🤣
I love how they made him stuttering in the drama - adds that element if being endearing that you see in the novel…
That's the point,that giant bandit man in his 20s had me "aww" and wishing I could give him hugs - the dude was nursed by a wolf and then spent his life all over ,and he is so cute when he tries to emote 🥺🥺
The character 'Chu Zhao' is described somewhat as a nice guy in the description here. But I don't get that vibe…
Exactly 💯 I actually feel cheated how some of the characters kinda got more typed "vilified" - I cried when when Youning was sent to that old piece of scum prince and his childhood especially scenes with his mother made me cry so hard I had to stop reading for a minute 😭 I loved how real He Rufei's childhood trauma and subsequent events formed his psychology, I love Wang Ba and hate how he was made for comic relief; O absolutely love He Yan's He (be th He )families dyamics were written. Coming back to Chu Zhao ,his character left me with this wishful melancholy cause he was so deeply caught up the schemes and plots
I am reading this like 9th and actually thought,I wish I could read her back story - throughout the novel there…
My thoughts exactly,like I understand this is heavy underlined romance type story ,but I love He Yan - and she has her moments - she is stubborn, a bit crazy and kinda arrogant but so honestly herself I can't help but admire her 🥰
I understand the logic behind Shen Mu Xue cancellation,but : He Yan's thoughts when she saw her " love rival ?" : 🤣🤣 " In the Liangzhou garrison where even the mosquitoes were male, when had they ever seen such an elegant beauty? The men fell silent, afraid to disturb this delicate fairy-like lady."

I would love if someone could actually flash out her entire journey and produce this epic drama - S1 and S2 - cause He Yan is a true Phoenix 🐦🔥🐦🔥🐦🔥 A sidenote He Yan , Aelin Ashryver Whitethorn Galathynius and Jude Duarte are my top characters ♥️ Come to think of it , Chasing Jade and couple of others really have my favorite FLs 🥰🥰🥰
