Thanks!! I understand them being worried about her safety and if they can have a stable life/future.

Thanks!!!

Thanks!!

That makes sense. Thanks!! I'm glad they end up accepting him.

Oh Ok thanks. I knew that ML's father had killed Jiang Ying's father but I just didn't connect that as why the parents were against it. But that isn't ML's fault so why hold it against him?

Why are FL parents against her relationship with ML? I thought that they liked him.

Can someone who has read the novel please answer a question for me?

She went to high school with Duan Jia Xu. When they were in high school Duan Jia Xu's dad drove drunk and hit Jiang Ying's dad and fled the scene. He went home and told Duan Jia Xu and his wife that he did it and they told him to get help to try to save Jiang Ying's dad and to turn himself in. He refused to do so , so DJX called and reported it himself. But unfortunately Jiang Ying's dad ended up dying and to avoid going to prison DJX's dad jumped from the balcony of their home and tried to kill himself. He ends up in a coma and on life support. DJX's mom makes a promise to Jiang Ying and her mother that DJX and his mom will pay for the dad's funeral and take care of Jiang Ying and her mom for the rest of their lives. Later on DJX's mom dies but he continues to take care of Jiang Ying and her mom providing for them financially even though he doesn't have a lot himself. But after her dad gets killed she becomes unhinged basically which I can kind of understand. But she goes too far and takes it out on DJX when he is trying and doing his best to keep the promise his mom made. She never lets him forget what his dad did and constantly tells him that he owes her and will owe her for the rest of his/her life. She stalks him at his home and work, harasses him and even assaults him in a restaraunt when he's having dinner with FL. I understand she has a right to be upset because her father was killed in such a horrible way and DJX's dad just fled and left him there to die. But it isn't DJX's fault, he shouldn't be held responsible for the sins of his father. Especially when he did the right thing and tried to get her dad help even though it ended up being too late and even turned in his own father to the police. And has been taking care of her for years.

I absolutely agree if he starts communicating better it will help out a lot I believe. And I don't think he is irredeemable either. Everyone can make mistakes and do the wrong thing. It is what you do afterwards to make up for it and redeem yourself. As long as he learns from it and tries to be/do better and doesn't continue to do the same thing causing more issues then it will be fine.

I also feel like he really does care for/love Tai and can kinda see your point about Tai only having an infatuation. But I think perhaps it comes across like that because before meeting Phatt Tai didn't really believe in soulmates. And even after meeting Phatt even though he is attracted/infatuated with Phatt he still has his doubts and insecurities about soulmates. So because of these doubts/insecurities he isn't all in yet with Phatt. He is too worried about the soulmate part of it and how even soulmates don't always work out (his parents) instead of just taking a chance and seeing what happens. Where as Phatt on the other hand does believe in soulmates/destiny, but wasn't afraid to go against his destiny when he fell for Tai (before he knew Tai was his soulmate). Phatt has known what he wanted from the moment he first saw Tai and has been confident in it. He just hasn't been the best at communicating/expressing it. I did love how in the last episode he did finally tell Tai that he would love him even if they weren't soulmates. He finally expressed his feelings and communicated better then he ever had. I hope that he continues to express/communicate and that it can help Tai get past his doubts/insecurities and truly be all in the relationship.

I get what you mean about the context. This was just what i took away from it because Tai was telling him about his insecurities and said that's why he went up the mountain to try and learn something about soulmates. And Phatt said he wasn't mad at Tai right after Tai explained that so that's why it led me to believe that Phatt meant he wasn't mad at Tai for going up the mountain. I personally would be worried too but I would also be mad. Of course I would make sure they were safe and ok first but then they would get a scolding like they had never had for doing something like that. But different people handle different situations differently and that's ok.

I do agree with everything you said about Phatt. He doesn't like to clarify or explain things and just hopes that they somehow will just go away or resolve themselves? Or that people are just supposed to know what he thinks/feels without him saying anything. But that is exactly what caused the mess of the whole last episode. It all could have been prevented If he would just speak up and be clear about things. But they have to create drama somehow I guess.

And as far as Tai not being ready and Phatt waiting for him. I think even without Phatt saying anything it's pretty clear that he would/will wait for Tai. Because if not he would have already tried to rush/pressure Tai. He himself even stopped it one time when Tai started it because he could tell Tai wasn't ready. And the second time when Tai stopped it and said he still wasn't ready Phatt may have felt a little frustration (it isn't that easy to just stop in the middle like that and they had done that twice at this point) which is maybe why he didn't say anything right away. But he obviously was still willing to wait for Tai because he still didn't try to pressure/force him. And even asked Tai was he sure he wanted to when Tai offered to help him. But I do think it would have been good for Tai if Phatt had said it out. Perhaps he is someone who believes actions speak louder than words? But doesn't realize that some people need to hear the words as well as see the actions.

I took that as Phatt meaning he wasn't mad at Tai for wandering off. Which IMO Phatt had a right to be mad about that so did everyone else at the camp. Yes Tai had a reason to be upset with Phatt, but to wander off on his own up a mountain was not very smart. Kung said that because of floods no one was allowed to go up the mountain. But Tai went up there without even finding out the conditions of the mountain or if he was even allowed to go. He didn't even take any supplies, not even water in the scorching heat. Him doing that was very irresponsible, careless and caused upset and worry in everyone at the camp including his own brother and best friend. Not to mention it was also dangerous not just for him but also for anyone who went up the mountain looking for him. He was wearing a sweater in the scorching heat going up a mountain where it was only going to get hotter the further up he went and had no water. He could have had a heat stroke, not to mention other potential dangerous situations. He did fall down the mountain and got lucky that he only hurt his ankle.

No matter what Phatt did Tai should have been more responsible and not put himself in a dangerous situation and cause upset and worry for the people who care about him just because he was angry/upset. Confront Phat directly don't do something stupid. Or if he really wanted to go up the mountain to prove something or find something or whatever he should have at least been better prepared instead of just wandering off into an unknown situation. Phatt was eligible and had every right to be mad/upset with Tai for doing such an irresponsible and dangerous thing. Just as Tai had every right to be upset with Phatt. Tai even knew he was wrong, that's why he apologized. They both made bad choices that cause hurt, upset and worry to people who care about them and who they care about. Neither are perfect.

You are right about not being able to tell how much time has passed in each episode. I just didn't know if all of that time had passed in between the kiss and when Jane had tried to talk to Jaab or afterwards. I get so confused with it sometimes not knowing if something is happening the same day, the next day or many days later. They really should make it clear when they do the time skips. And of course Jaab has every right to be upset/angry.

I went back and checked again about the job transfer. Jaab did try to have Jane transferred. Because Jaab says that he told Not (I assume their boss) to transfer Jane. But Jane after finding this out said that Jaab didn't have to keep trying to avoid him because he was resigning and moving back to his hometown. Jaab shouldn't have tried to have Jane transferred. Again work and personal life should be kept separate. But Jane resigned so I guess neither of them were able to keep it separate.

You're Welcome

You're welcome

You're welcome!! I agree it is odd. In fact the girls parents I believe didn't even know she was pregnant. Both families got a call after the death of the twins parents and were informed about a kid but neither were informed that it was in fact twins for some reason. And that is how the kids ended up separated. And then the leads were trying to solve that mystery themselves, but never did. They figured out everything that happened with their siblings relationship and how they died but not how or why the kids were separated. Which is weird honestly.

I know I'm not the person you were referring to, but I can answer your question. SA stands for Sexual Assault.

It's never really explained how they got separated. All they tell is that when the parents die the dad's brother ML gets custody of the boy and the mom's sister FL gets custody of the girl. But it never really explains why or how. And in fact until ML and FL met they never even knew that the kids had a twin or that their siblings were the parents of the twins or that their siblings even had a relationship. ML had never met his brothers girlfriend and FL had never met her sisters boyfriend because they were abroad. So it pretty much left some things unanswered.

LOL!!! True but I guess they had to add drama to it somehow. And maybe I am just too good natured to stay mad for very long. I try to find something good/positive (no matter how small) in even bad situations. I tend to forgive easily and believe in second chances. And the fact that Tai didn't really seem to be bothered by it and even agreed to officially be Phat's boyfriend afterwards kinda helped me change my perspective a little and get over my frustration. He's the one in that messy relationship if he's not bothered by it why should I be? Now of course if this were a real life situation that happened to me or someone I love/care about, I admittedly would be more angry and not as quick to forgive. But since it is fiction I just decided to let it go and not let it anger me or stress me out.

Oh I get what you meant now. But the reason they did that to my understanding is because they were not at the camp or anywhere near the rooms when Tai disappeared. They had went to a nearby village to work. And so of course they would check there in the area that Tai disappeared from first just to make sure he wasn't around there somewhere. Remember Phat, Tian and Lomfon had to borrow a truck to get back to the rooms to even check, so apparently they were quite a distance away from the rooms when Tai went missing.

But Phat did look in the room. That's how he figured out that Tai was on the mountain. Because he found a note on the table about going to the mountain.
