as much as i hate that part, i think it is an important plot coz that is the final blow in yok and itt's friendship.…
I was also very sad while reading that scene, but as you said, it is a very important scene in the plot. I remember thinking at that moment about how people usually say there is a thin line between love and hate. You could clearly see this between Li Yu and Suilin: at the beginning of the novel, Li Yu had a crush on Suilin, but later on, he hates him to the point of wanting to murder him. It is interesting because the trope usually goes from enemies to lovers, but series don't tend to exploit the vice versa—how you can hate someone you previously loved.
Force's character was not in the Novel. A part of me really hopes that this new character probably keep Itt in…
I hope Force doesn't lead him to a redemption arc. Right now, the only reasons I can think of for introducing Force are: • To have a new person to whom Itt can express himself, thereby reducing his rage and obsession. I don't see how Force could fuel an obsession with Ing. • To present a new possibility for love. I mean, Force might awaken feelings in Itt, like a crush or love, which would lead to the same outcome: reducing Itt's obsession.
I hope I am wrong, but I guess we are not going to get the incestuous part (it might sound weird, but I would like to see it in this series). I can accept that they toned down the series a lot compared to the novel, but I would still like to see that love/obsession from Itt. I say this because in the novel, when Itt leaves Ing in his room, he kisses him, but Ing confuses him with Yok because he is drunk (I remember being shocked after reading that scene). And in today's episode, we didn't see this. Also, with the introduction of Force's character (which I don't like at all, as I like Itt being alone), I think we might just get the obsession without the incestuous part.

Personally, I don't like the introduction of this new character; Itt needs to be alone. An essential part of the plot is incest, which happens due to different factors—one of them being that Itt is almost completely isolated, with no one but his mother and Yok. This fuels his obsession with Ing. Therefore, I don't like having a new character who might distance him from his obsession. Itt is a bad person, and I want him to stay that way, without any changes. I don't want a happy ending for him

The 188 series are 11 novels written by Shui Qian Cheng. The 188 series refers to the fact that all the gongs (top) are 188 cm. The gong is always younger than the shou (bottom). The 188 series the writing style is heavy on angst and heartbreak. Most books features non-con usually on their first time, which is treated as a severe trauma that underscores how toxic the gong is. The character dynamics are highly complex and initially unhealthy: the gong is obsessively toxic, while the shou deals with unrequited love and a co-dependent, yet generous, affection. Ultimately, these stories focus on growth; despite the toxic beginnings, the main couple manages to fix their communication and reach a healthy balance by the epilogue.
In Chinese, the trope is called 追妻火葬场. It originates from the saying 傲娇一时爽，追妻火葬场 (Tsundere is proud for a while, chasing his wife in the crematorium - loosely translated).
At first, the male protagonist ignores his partner, who loves him deeply. He is very arrogant and indifferent, and often even abusive to his lover, but once he finally loses her, in order to get her back, he will do a lot of groveling.
Initially it was a web slang for regular boy-girl novels and TV dramas.The crematorium metaphor amplifies the stakes, which satisfies readers who crave justice for wronged female characters. Shui Qian Cheng (SQC) made it popular in danmei with her 188 Boy's Team series (Professional Body Double, etc).
In several danmei novels, the author described the 'crematorium' as the gong's body was almost burned to ashes, but he finally returned from the abyss when the shou softened up and re-accepted him in his life (after tons of groveling and begging, and sometimes even body harm - the gong sacrificing himself for the shou when he saved him from an accident, or stood in front of a bullet for him, etc). Afterward, during the crematorium process, the gong literally became a "licking dog" for the shou.
So it's just like a crematorium - once it's fully burned, the love is no longer recoverable, so the gong has to go through a "trial by fire", to do all the groveling and repentance before it's bad ending for the couple.

Shui Qian Cheng's novels are addictive. Before you realize it, you're already completely sucked into the plot. I bet this one won't take you more than a few weeks to read.
I don't know which i should read, the manhua or the novel?
The novel, no further questions, your honor! If you don't mind taking a little more time, go with the novel. If you are eager to know what will happen and don't mind delving deeper into the characters, read the manhua.
Another masterpiece from oneD! I really like this GL. I have to admit that this is only my second one finished—my first one was Clairebell, and it set the expectations high. I am happy to continue my journey with this series. This one was very cute and I liked it so much. Little by little, I am entering the Thai GL world.
Choosing Bank to play my diva Jian Suiying is the best decision ever. I hope the person who decided this always finds both sides of their pillow cold and has a great night's sleep
there is a discussion which says the name of the character in the novel and how it is in the series. In the series it is Junior - XIAO ZHU: PP Watcharapon Mahaban
ALL OF THIS. I'll be honest, I came into this drama after loving the trailer and then listening to someone break…
Thanks for approaching the series this way. I'm not saying you have to agree with those behaviors, but it is a relief that, even though you know what is going to happen, you don't complain about the toxicity. I am not sure if they are going to follow the novel and show all those acts or if they will tone them down. It would be a pity if they did. There are a lot of toxic BLs that are toned down in the series, even though they aren't in the novel, because they have to reach a bigger audience
