There are 15 episodes left, and there’s still a lot yet to happen. I have to admit, it makes me a bit anxious. Hopefully, it will have a happy ending, and none of my favorite characters will die.
I like how their romance is being built gradually. It would feel inconsistent to me if Wei Shao simply gave in to his feelings immediately. He carries wounds — feelings of loss, pain, a sense of family duty and a deep-rooted thirst for revenge. All of this is so ingrained in him that it’s natural to see him hesitate. The fact that he appears confused, torn between what he feels and what he thinks he should do, makes a lot of sense. For him, love is practically an internal battlefield. Besides that, it’s beautiful to see that Manman understands him and knows he needs time to accept what he feels.
I've watched 19 episodes so far, and I can't shake the feeling that the moment Wei Shao stops running away and finally accepts that he truly loves her, fully surrendering to that emotion, the intrigue will escalate. The intensity of their revealed love will clash with the complexity of family dilemmas, creating a profound conflict between filial piety and the desires of the heart.
Wow, this drama really left a mark on you! I haven’t watched it yet, but the way you described it got me super curious. I loved how you highlighted the consistency of the story and the attention to each character. It really seems like everything was crafted with care and detail. I was actually thinking about watching this one along with Guardians of the Dafeng. Great review!👍
i've watched till ep 18 and this drama has been more light afer eps 5 or 6 or so.. is it going to get more serious…
I can't say for sure since I haven't read the novel, so I have no idea what might happen. However, I suppose so, since there are still several episodes left. So, I believe things will start to get complicated soon. When exactly? I'm not sure, but it should be soon.
If I were Manman, after all those attempts, I would've just kissed Wei Shao to see if he'd finally wake up to reality. Hahaha. Loved episodes 18 and 19, I laughed so much! 🤣😂
Will MLs have kiss scenes at all. I am so curious hope it wont be just slow burn drama abut they wont show us…
It would really be a shame if there aren't any kissing scenes, because the chemistry is great. All we can do is wait and see... But I'm believing there will be.
