Yes, he needs good re-parenting :)

An angry adult would simply and calmly say "I'm angry, because ...".

She needs psychotherapy 😂😂😂

Yes. WS is like a walking red flag with anger issues. One minute he's fine, the next minute he's ready to blow up! This guy desperately needs some serious therapy sessions 🥵🫣 Someone get him on a couch before he burns down the whole city! 😂😂😂

Hate is a defense mechanism, often used to shield oneself from deeper feelings like sadness or fear.

🤣🤣🤣

It's showcases the ML's insecurities, explaining his jealousy :)

Maybe the actors are just too worried about catching herpes simplex from all those close scenes 😅. Better safe than sorry, right?

True, this has nothing to do with logic. It's psychology. Giving yourself the care and attention you did not get as a kid is called re-parenting. So, yeah, it’s not about being ‘a kid’—it’s about filling in those emotional gaps that were left behind. It’s a way to heal from childhood trauma and the pressures that came with growing up too fast. Hope this helps you to understand :)

This scene had me dying 😂 It’s not just hilarious, it actually shows so much about WS’s character—his lack of self-confidence, which is probably why he gets so jealous in the first place. Deep down, he’s insecure about his own worth and status, so seeing someone like Gao Heng looking all buff hits him where it hurts. His jealousy isn’t just about love, it’s about self-worth.

WS is a bit toxic.

At this point, Lady Yulou should be awarded a PhD in Scheming, Plotting, Manipulating, Feigning, and Pretending—she's truly the master of all these talents 😄

True. That moment in EP26 when Wei Yan talks about Gao Heng, but you can just feel he’s talking about himself... Liu Duan Duan's acting was incredible—so subtle, yet so powerful.

Please use the spoiler tag.

Haha, I’m still watching, currently on EP11, because I’m holding out for the highly praised bathtub scene 😏.

Bad acting and childish voice, maybe. Dai Luwa's Min Min is definitely less annoying.

Same here.

I totally see your point! Also, having her to-be-husband sign a contract that he can’t touch her seems pretty strange, especially in ancient times when not consummating a marriage and failing to produce heirs would probably be seen as shameful or problematic🤷‍♀️

Great point! I appreciate you broadening my perspective :)

I see your point, but I think it’s important to understand that unresolved trauma triggers survival and coping mechanisms that go beyond conscious and rational decision-making. Their behavior is largely unconscious—they really believe the world is against them and that they need to scheme to survive. Hope that helps clarify things, especially since you mentioned not having experienced situations like theirs! 😊
