I am sorry but I can’t be the only one who thought what just happened?
They spent so much time on other story arcs and their romance was all off screen? Like why? I know in the drama much time passed but I don’t think the message came across very well.
So they consummated their marriage after he left the capital? So suddenly he is on the same path as her after what 3-4 years? Also their intimacy scene felt off because there was no way to tell they got from 0 to 60 so fast.
That lady has many issues that even hormones cant explain. How did she end up marrying an arsehole with broke…
Sometimes women who date for a few months and marry end up getting lucky and sometimes women who have dated the guy for years and marry end up finding out how different he is as a spouse. Also she is a consultant, so she probably did not get to spend enough time with her husband to figure out his true colors maybe.
She is pregnant, suffering potentially from antenatal depression and anxiety. She can see how much of jerk her husband is but she is probably afraid of separating at this point because there is already a lot going on her life and on her mind. Her colleague had said she was the top performer so far, that means whatever she is going through is probably due to her pregnancy and after effects. She wouldnt be a consistent top performer with being so emotional otherwise, its not like she didnt have female competition before (Cindy).
Management Consulting is highly competitive profession but I can’t imagine being one in a country like China or India where there is no dearth of talent but also nepotism and corruption! Japan and Korea with their old school with ethics added to the mix are no different if not worse! It’s probably as close to hunger games as you could get. Same goes for professions in core finance like Hedge Funds.
It really take the type of personality FL has to get into these professions. These are also the professions who treat women the worst. The FL’s mentor’s insecurity is not completely unfounded. But she did take it too far, glad she got her come uppance too.
Exactly, and they claim to help the ones in need but if you think about it, how many victims can afford to have their perpetrators killed? This detail bugged me so much that I kept thinking about it all the time and it just kept pulling me out of the drama.
In the novel, she's very evil and the ML hates her. He fell in love with her at first sight, but found she wasnt…
@Steph_M Was she a product of her circumstances like it appears in the drama or was she just a bad person? Like did her maternal family think women are just breeding stock and they also did not educate women and she was forced to marry the ML? Or was she inherently just a bad person?
My girl was just born to the wrong parents and born in the wrong era! I genuinely feel bad for her...
I am talking about Xing Tang the legal wife. Her family did not educate the women implying their only value is marrying into other families and giving heirs. Then she was married off to someone she didnt want to get married to. And now she is discovering what absolute garbage of a man she ruined her life for.
Another completely unnecessary breakup! Can we please stop breaking up for completely fixable reasons?
Why are they making her suck a jerk in the drama? I dont understand. She is confident and independant in the novel, but she isnt a jerk about it.
Also why make her look so dumb? Also whats with the silly reason to ground her from the board? You wanted her to wake a pilot up who had just fainted (no matter if it was just a harmless fainting spell) to land the plane in bad weather? Its not like his brain is going to be 100% right away to do such crucial maneuvers right after he wakes up. Are their heads stuffed with cotton?
I honestly find it offensive to erase the collective trauma we all went through as humans. I know it’s probably censorship but it’s like closing your eyes hoping day turns into night.
