Thank you!! It’s good to know the fiance(e) are not third wheeling. Given how thats like a core component of these dramas! Can you tell me within how mny episodes are the fincee thingy taken care of? Ngl it always keeps me on edge when fiancee arrangement still exists out there. I am guessing for the ML, its not out of his own will but some sort of family arrangement? Is he brave enough to tackle the family then? Also! How is the leads dynamic! Since you mentioned they are on and off, is it like an ambiguous entanglement or just FL pushing away ML for the most part? I don’t like ambiguity, especially given they have fiance(e)s 😭I do love a ML chasing FL all the way trope though lol. I don’t mind ANY spoilers at all! I am one of those viewers who doesn’t want a stress cell in my body 😆

Firstly, I didn’t even know this drama but your review popped up in another platform and I HAD to look up the drama right away. And I come to find the review again! The way you eloquently and deliciously depicted the ML? I was sat. I didn’t even know what the drama was about but you were way too convincing in alluring me to the character I would LOVE to see come to life in his shades of morally grey and borderline red, lol. Before I watch, help me out here! I’m one of those who would rather not have my blood pressure spiked by exasperating tropes almost rooted in most cdramas. Is there any separation/breakup arc? Are there exes who are a constant nuisance and leads to troubles for our couple? I have noticed there are an awful lot of cdramas with major conflicts being ex-returns or troublesome 2Fl admirers (almost always the 2Fls) who have nothing better to do than latch onto the man and cause rifts 😭 Had enough. Please tell me this is not one of those dramas coz gosh, am I so tempted to watch the ML’s character depth unfold

soo does the ML have some redeemable qualities afterall? Do we hate him to the almost very end? Saw your comment a month back or so and came back to confirm hahah

thank you!! I am now going through Deng Kai’s weibo and I know where I will be hovering the next few days haha. Feel free to share anything Qi Min and Deng Kai 😆

Yes yes I completely agree! I am glad you pointed all these out. Admittedly nothing will wipe away the countless sins he committed, but everything else also don’t remove the misery of a life he lived. His headspace was in constant turmoil of bitterness and anger as an aftermath of brutality he was subjected to. And when he knelt in front of her, or begged for her love, my heartttt 😭 I think with some, a LOT of therapy (QianQian), there could have been hope.

I think I am one of the very few who held delusional hope for them in this timeline (understandably so. They have been a glaringly obvious case of hopeless outcome). I will just copy paste my pov from my earlier comments haha. Nm if you already read!

But by the end episode, him living as a less unhinged version of himself while being an utterly devoted lover didn’t seem too far-fetched to me. Once he, THE Qi Min has learnt to let go for the very woman he would have burnt and churned up the world for, to me that flickered the tiniest, or a little more hope for redemption even if far away from complete reformation.

As for QQ’s reciprocation (because that should matter of course). Her last reaction gave me that flicker of hope (and also her reaction when he let go of her hand! didn’t miss that!). That maybe had they spent more time together with his craze for power now diminished, with her and only her in his view of world, two hearts could unite. It would have taken time of course, but by now Qi Min should have all the patience in the world for the light of his life. Thats my take! Delusional, I know, but desperate 😭

And I continue to shed tears 😭 I am glad us Qi Min yeraners are uniting here

Thank you!! Lets do this 🫂 We will come back again when our heart aches. For now we remember Qi Min from episode 11 🥺

I just read it (Thank you for sharing the link!!) and OMYGODDDD I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE 😭😭😭 Why am I crying again! I came here to virtually hug my Qi Min yearners after my heart has been shattered into million pieces watching the last episode, and now I am back to tears again. I am about as desperate as Qi Min was for her, in wanting their alternate happy ending. I went back to episode 11 to restart watching their “fateful” encounters so that I hold the memories of a Qi Min that wasn’t as miserable as in the last episode 😭 I will rewatch them again. Pls feel free to come back here ANYTIME the yearning aches *sob sob* I am here, we are here

and THANK YOU comrade aboard! I am happy to create a yearning space here for fellow Qi Min yearners. I needed to breath too! Indeed, he was the biggest reason I kept watching, and I would totally want another storyline of their own too. And it was equally terrifying and enticing how he remained so unhinged in matters of world, yet so vulnerable when it comes to QQ. He also wanted to give the world to her but the world meant nothing if she wasn’t in his. As I was replying earlier, by the end episode, him living as a less unhinged version of himself while being an utterly devoted lover didn’t seem too far-fetched either. Once he, THE Qi Min has learnt to let go for the very woman he would have burnt and churned up the world for, to me that flickered the tiniest, or a little more hope for redemption even if far away from complete reformation. Deng Kai did such a justice to Qi Min’s character!

And nooo I haven’t read the letter! Where is it from??

right?? but make it a decade maybe 😆 Because after reading the Extra *ahem* chapters, I was definitely questioning his crazy. I am guessing those were few years after marriage? Even then his uncommunicative jealousy and possessiveness went so strong. I cant tell you how dumbfounded I was especially because I ran there first for the spice before even starting the novel. It was such a DRASTIC change from the Xiw Zheng I was watching everyday hahah

omggg we are on the same boat because my brain is extra deep fried from the vertical dramas too lmaoooo. Right here, comrade! 🫡Anddd Exactly her last reaction gave me that flicker of hope (and also when he let go of her hand! didn’t miss that!). That maybe had they spent more time together with his craze for power now diminished, with her and only her in his view of world, two hearts could unite. It would have taken time of course, but oh well. Again, I am clearly NOT OKAY when it comes to fictional men

I get you! Honestly I was totally rooting for them in this life too, my weak heart lol. By the last episode, the way he was willing to let go, the way he in a way sacrificed for her, he took bigger and bigger place in my heart. Him willingly dying in her hands and lap 😭😭😭
I felt that him being “tamed” into living as a less unhinged version of him wasn’t far away. Again, many might disagree lol. But I feel like they could have!

I feel you! By those last ten eps I lost interest in the main cp. Somehow even ep 38 couldn’t redeem the loss of interest to a big extent. But my villain lover’s arc? I was down sat so bad. With each episode I kept feeling sadder because I know whats to come 🥲 Their arc was a big save for me!

hahhaha I would have liked to get a stronger glimpse of that too! But honestly? After reading the novel Xie Zheng, sometimes I find myself appreciating them toning down his crazy because I get to enjoy both kinds lol. Ngl some of the chapters there even I was like woahhhhh back down there crazy, you are so different than the Xie Zheng I watch! Especially given that if they precisely followed the novel, some situations would have turned differently, and I am glad it didn’t. But yesss i would have loved to see SOMEEEE of it hehe

ALL THE QI MIN YEARNERS, gather here with me, let our emotional turmoils peak together. One of the biggest reasons I could keep up with so many episodes was because of this second love arc which enticed me beautifully. And I appreciate the makers of adaptation for giving us this beautifully, painfully captivating arc that keeps gnawing at some ( unstable ones like me) of our hearts. *Spoilers Ahead* While the pacing for our main cp slowed down or sometimes got boring, I had this delicious, unhinged villain’s schemes, obsession with his woman, and love tribulations to look forward to. Oh my man YEARNS. The yearning he yearned, made me yearn for a villain’s happily ever after too. Now I know that this man is the ultimate villain, BAD BAD. A sinister schemer, merciless kil!er, a villain without redemption. But perhaps, perhaps, not so much irredeemable in love; Perhaps. And this made me so desperately want a real alternate ending for him and QianQian. Where he gets to move her heart, where he is ready to give up everything for her, if it means he can earn the littlest love and space in her heart. And by the ending point? That possibility may not have been so far fetched either. My tears shed with him during the last scene, as he lay there in her lap, and as he listened to her voice in his final breaths. My heart HURT.

Even if in a universe he still remains unhinged, I know my girl QianQian could keep him in check. Even then, I wished for his happy ever after with a new beginning.

Before anyone comes at me with how unokay I am, I know, I KNOW 😭 A girl can be weak for Qi Min, okay?

thanks everyone! I went to the discussion board and finally downloaded. Reading it rn too!! The Qi Min extra chapter isn’t helping my unstable emotions especially after the drama ending for him 😭

where can I watch his cut scenes PLSSS

thanks! Is it possible to download from here?

Does anyone know if I can download the novel? Also if anyone knows which chapters to specifically read for QiMin and Qian Qian!

pls I was CRYING and still cnt get over it 😭I wanna rewatch their parts or might as well read the novel
