I can't believe it either, but at least the kiss in ep 40 definitely has some tongue. Now I'm wondering if this was scripted or unscripted😅. Never thought I'd watch a chinese mainstream drama allow that level of intimacy on screen.

I felt the same watching this episode, don't worry about it. ☺️ I was annpyed that he so spitefully and senselessly destroyed the DMF and then the way he so nonchalantly treated her being being posioned to death. And the way he casually asked "Are you mad at me for destroying it?" and her saying "no" was seriously annoying.😭 I'm not one to watch spoilers because spoilers can be misleading as well, but I've read the comments here about the GMD so I feel better. ☺️ But I'm glad I wasn't the only one feeling mad at the ML.😂

This drama was definitely created to check on the health of its viewers, as in how is their blood pressure doing. This must be the most maddening drama I've seen in quite a while. I do not recommend anyone to watch this. By episode 15 I was hoping for everyone to die except the FL (Mo Hui; even though I can't stand her brainless character). Mo Hui was done dirty by everyone in this show and of the main and second lead characters, no one cared to at least treat her like a human being. And yet till the end, no matter how many times she was betrayed, Mo Hui treats them all like loved ones. If you do watch this, then don't get emotionally invested in Mo Hui. She may be the main character for 16 out of 19 episodes, but neither the romance, nor the friends nor the happy ending are for her. Plus the ML is a sh*tty father. There's truly nothing to like about this drama. I want my hours back.

I understand why the ML pushed for Lu Chen to come back and I understand why Pei Jiu made the choice to wake Lu Chen up, but what I don't get and don't like is that Yunniang and Pei Jiu were never given the chance to say properly goodbye to each other and especially for Yunniang to get closure. And that I do blame on the ML by not being upfront and completely honest to all parties involved from the beginning. Did he even once show sympathy for Yunniang? No, he was only talking about the glory of a wandering sword master or whatever, basically implying that Yunniang is just some insignificant woman.

Good question, did we watch the same thing? Because shortly before Pei Jiu regained his full memory, he wasn't aware that he would likely lose his memory of Yunniang but the ML very well knew that he would forget his fiancee. If the ML were a true friend, he'd lay it all out, all truths and consequences before letting Pei Jiu decide what to do and starting the process of waking up.

I also don't like how self-centered and cold-hearted he is. Pei Jiu and Yiunnang both deserved to know to the truth before he started to wake up Lu Chen. I can't root for a ML who is still this way at more than the halfway point of the whole drama.

I'm sorry, was it supposed to be funny that for some inexplicable reason (the ML himself couldn't come up with) he asked his employee (FL) out simply because of kissing once while drunk and even though he doesn't even like her? And after she says no, he fires her?! WTF?! Sure smacks of retaliation. The one and only scene worth watching in episode 4 was the co-worker using her flower ring to show him the middle finger. It's 2025, ffs, she should have sued his arrogant unprofessional a*s for unfair dismissal.

And why do they always have to make the FL loud and embarassing in completely unnecessary ways but when it counts she's as meek as a lamb?

And it continues.... The ML asks her to date him and spews nuggets like "Your thoughts and opinions don't matter to me." Wow, just wow. Does the ML have a split personality or the script writer?

And of course the FL has to do some overdramatic action in order for her to redeem herself in the ML's eyes - as if she's the only employee that would be worried about the potatoes during thunder.

This is the lamest and most offensive nonsense I've seen in quite a while. Happily dropped like a sprouting potato.

I understand, I understand😂 I really like his voice too, I have to admit. Hehe, that's a good point, I'll have to remember that while reading😁

It's difficult to ignore the novel right now. 😭 I think I'll have to take a short break from both or I'll never be able to enjoy the drama on its own 🤣 Hope you'll have lots of fun watching though! 😊

You're speaking my mind! 😂 I really liked how she actively schemed her lowlife cheating fiance into marrying his commoner lover in the novel. That was a very satisfying slap in the arrogant family's face. I was so utterly confused when the drama ML saved her instead and it became a case of attempted murder by the ex-fiance. I mean, the book does have more than 800 chapters so it seems like a monumental task to turn that into a 40 episode drama version, but still... I somehow don't like that the drama ML seems to be suspecting and even willing to scheme against the FL. Darn it, I shouldn't have started reading the book shortly before the start of the drama 😭😭😭

I hate it when they do that. It always feels like cheating. Kinda a shame because the ML in the book version seems (so far) a whole sweeter and devoted to the FL and I like him better than the drama version (so far).

I am on episode 5 and I am struggling so badly to continue watching. And all I see are raving fan-girling reviews about every little scene between the two leads while I am waiting for a tiny bit, even just a hint, of a plot line. Boy am I bored. I feel better now after reading your comment. And after now knowing the drama won't get any better, I will happily drop it.

Hey therey how are you today?

I've been struggling with depression since I was around 13 years old and it's been a tough up and down road so far. I had a terrible relapse last year that stretched over months and really scared me. I am now barely keeping my chin up and overcoming that episode.

I can realte to a few things you said, but of course, each story is different. I just want to say that I have a complicated family as well, a family that probably pushed me further into depression as well as my father and sister have been gaslighting me since I can remember. Just recently I realized that this is exactly the term for their behaviour as it had always been difficult for me to explain to other people why I have been slowly distancing myself from them.

I also know what you mean with not having the strength for personal hygiene and other stuff. During the time my depression was the worst I was not able to leave the bed and as I knew no one in the city I was living in and had barely any money, I had no strength to leave my apartment and buy food, so each week I ended up starving for two to three days before I finally gathered my last strength and went grocery shopping.

I have never had any luck with psychiatrists or psychologists. I'm still searching for one I feel truly connected with. I have been blessed with my best friend at one point and she has been there for me and my "self-therapy" as we call it. 😊

Like others have said, we all need people to talk to. I may not be able to fully grasp all your struggles as I am in a different situation, but if you want to talk, please write me. I probably won't be able to do much, but I will never judge you and I sincerely just want to listen to you.

I hope you have a peaceful day. 🍀

I hope it's okay that I squeeze myself into your conversation, but I somehow really loved your reply. You sound overall like your are at a good and peaceful place with yourself and your environment right now, and that makes me honestly so happy. As a fellow person struggling with depression for most of my life, I wish and hope for all to find a bit of peace within ourselves and come.to a good place.

I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart! ♥

I have heard and read so many people blaming a depressed person for taking their own life, it makes me sick every time. I hope every person out there tries as best as they can to get any help they can, but if that's not possiblr and if the pain is too much and they can't go on anymore, I rather blame our society for being incapable of providing adequate help to every individual in pain out there. Killing onself isn't part of our insticts, someone doing that, it should tell us enough about how horrible the pain must have been.
