What a fascinating man you are: imposing, like a granite fort, but a secretly sweet protector. Xiao Qiao: indefeasible woman who kidnapped your heart with the lightness of a plume and the strength of a volcano.
Ah, Wei Shao... We know your secret... You are living an unthinkable dilemma, you have discovered yourself a prisoner in a duel between two opponents... and these two opponents... have the same name: Wei Shao! On one side, Wei Shao, heir to a pact of revenge, and on the other side, Wei Shao who has fallen in love with the granddaughter of his supposed enemy. The best of you will win this duel!! A duel caused by a feeling of guilt over the unexpected love you came to feel for Xiao Qiao.
You are far from being dumb, blind, cold, or indifferent to love. On the contrary, you have a deeply loving, kind, compassionate, vast, honest, generous, fruitful, and fair heart. What prevents you from opening the guard of your heart to Xiao Qiao is your steely character, your love for the bonds lost in the massacre, your pact with your brother in the name of settling accounts. But, Wei Shao, you were defeated from the first exchange of glances with Xiao Qiao, you tried in every way to escape the arrow of love, but ended up being snatched by that arrow __who would have thought, you, a warrior__, by the plume of a lady with a steely character, like yours, who resisted your legitimate resentment, who was patient with your harsh attitudes, who was sweet in your bitterness, who was gentle with your fury, who was your light in the darkness, who was your sentinel in your solitude, who was your ally and diplomat in political conquests, who was indulgent because she felt your pain within herself. You realized that Xiao Qiao has purity, in its most virginal state, in her heart.
Wei Shao, you are as experienced as you are suffering, and you consciously gave in to the strength of the purity of Xiao Qiao's actions. This strength came through concrete evidence that your eyes could not deny and that your heart, without resistance, welcomed. And now... you are hopelessly in love with Xiao Qiao! This passion is a conflict between your values, it collides completely with your traumas, with the duty you assumed in seeking revenge.
But Poetry is like water, it infiltrated and removed the veils that clouded the perception of love and settled in your heart, like a river washing away your past wounds.
My sweet and brave warrior, you are rough in battle, relentless in conquering territories, but now... Ah, now!!! Now, you experience the sweetest and most challenging of battles and the most overwhelming and powerful of conquests, the unexpected happened: you entered the territory of love where the sword and armor surrendered, meekly, to a woman devoted to the people who fought for you under the armor of love and under the sword of virtues.
Love attracts spring, just as flowers attract butterflies. Now, it's time to pick magnolias...
Brave and passionate warrior, the duel is over: love has won!!
I think it's her best work, she performs even better in TPOB than in The Demon Hunter's Romance and she's also…
She is truly wonderful, charismatic, with a very expressive face, and a rare ability to express a universe of words and feelings through her eyes. She is an actress who masters the subtlety of the various nuances and emotional gradations. She deserves all our recognition! Thank you for your comment! I will watch your recommendation!
Song Zu Er, girl, am I glad that your rep was cleared. I'm only on episode one and the scene at 26 minutes in…
I think it's her best work, she performs even better in TPOB than in The Demon Hunter's Romance and she's also more exuberant. Her innocence in the matter of tax evasion turned into a huge success and recognition. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Hlv7nOO_thI
I’m blown away whenever I see Wei Shao’s grandmother on my screen. She’s really beautiful. I just can’t…
Liu Xiao Qing has always been recognized for her exuberant beauty and for her eternal youth. She has had problems with tax evasion, and was convicted and imprisoned in 2002 (442 days in prison). She had a troubled marriage, with four husbands. Recently, she was involved in a rumor about an alleged affair with her photographer, 20 years younger than her. With a life like that, it's surprising that she maintains her beauty and youthful appearance. You can read about all these issues here. https://e.vnexpress.net/news/life/celebrities/chinese-actress-liu-xiaoqing-reportedly-has-affair-with-man-20-years-her-junior-4810848.html
You also almost fall from the trap of not watching this lovely drama?
Yeah!!! He was wonderful! But here, in TPOB, the director is bold, he knew how to value LYN's masculinity, like his neck and Adam's apple, his mouth, all with zoom... 😅 there is a scene of him... in the bathtub... 🥵 Then he gets up and... I'll leave you in suspense! 😂
You also almost fall from the trap of not watching this lovely drama?
I really understand you, I was like you too. We are already halfway through the series. You won't have to wait long. You can at least take a look at the wonderful clips, LYN is really more handsome, something has changed in him, he has a more mature, very masculine look.
Just found out this one. Is it good? I love both but ML had so much sad and tearjerking ending. 🥲
😅True...I had that fear too, but since the novel has a HE, I decided to take the risk. Go ahead! LYN is more handsome than ever and the series is wonderful! The best of 2025 so far!
You also almost fall from the trap of not watching this lovely drama?
😅 I understand you...I had promised myself not to watch any more series with LYN because he always dies (or disappears!😅), but I believe that TPOB will have a HE!
