My prediction is that they won’t release any more episodes till Tuesday. I think Monday they will release new airing schedule and then the express drop to finale will then be released on Tuesday.

FL: Weekend off please?
ML: Dual cultivation?? shameless LOL

I saw a few xiao hong shu users say that this drama is meant to air on October 2nd according to the producer! Bc it’s meant to air during the Chinese 7 Day National Holiday.

yes I noticed this too! Particularly on the basketball courts in his sports uniform at his college

watched a bts interview and there’s apparently meant to be a lot of kisses in this drama LOL.

most dramas do an express drop for last 6 episodes… surely this drama too!!

can someone explain to me the coding convo they had at the karaoke going away party😭😭

Fr the tension bc it looks like ML is gonna be upset that FL blurted out that she would never like the future ML in ten years time. Also I have a feeling that the ML won’t end up going to Germany

watch ep13 preview and a bunch of bts interviews. so now I’m gonna need an express package to drop 😭😭 only one ep a day now?? nooo

wait

anyone know when the leads realise they both were reborn? in the novel wise at least?

start was good, towards the second half of drama started dragging. FL never matured, ML is still can never commit to the FL fully. Also elements like them coming out of the water but being completely dry in next scene. One scene it’s daylight, next scene they go inside and it’s dark outside, next scene they come back out and it’s daylight again (and it’s meant to be the same day lol). They supposedly being on an isolated island and having to catch fish to eat, next minute FL takes injured ML back to his apartment lmao.

I’m assuming due to low budget but anyways in the future I look forward to a full length romance action drama where we can focus more on the meeting of ML and FL and how they fall in love in a dangerous situation rather than the over focus on the story when they meet again. Seeing that we have seen this troupe already many times.

actually in Mysterious Love it was the SML’s daughter that he adopted that was allergic to mangos. Not FL I don’t think so.

rewatching this drama 4 years later, someone tell me am I tripping bc I thought there was a scene where ML and FL purposely stage a fight in front of the cat bc they knew that the cat had an implanted ears-dropping device bc ML discovered that the cat had surgical incision scar so he realised. I finished the drama again while skimming some parts and could not find this scene. Am I dreaming LOL anyone can confirm?

Specially, ML and FL enter the apartment and were arguing about possibly Tuo Li again, with ML telling her to not trust him n FL defending him (can’t remember). But fight gets heated and then FL goes back to their bed room and starts packing her suitcase. This where the ML pulls her aside reveals the truth that he was deliberately acting that way and he didn’t tell her before bc the cat was in the living room listening.

I’m honestly so confused bc I can not think of any other drama where this scene might have from. I’m certain it’s this drama but I can’t find this scene anymore.

Okay im eating this plot up (minus the ML having a fiance, I feel bad for the FL). I also ate up Mysterious Love, Embrace in the Dark Night LOL. I wish there was more full length thriller action romance dramas!

Love Nan Heng questioning SYM reality, is it just another script? A dream within a dream right?!

reminds me of Kill Me Love Me. Ruthless ML but crazily loves FL once he falls in love. FL is poisoned and just wants to leave ML and have a peaceful life (fake death time?). Main difference I think this plot is more complex and FL seems to be a lot more indifferent.

Im watching this more for comedic entertainment. I think maybe this aired to soon after TPOB aired so it’s harder to get into this. Esp when the styling of the ML is practically the same. For me initially the ML role as Nan Heng was very flat bc he was confined to the script like a two dimensional character (which he was), playing an antagonist role. Until the FL’s transmigration which slowly changed things as ML started becoming aware too. Loads of theories around such as it’s the script writer and also the actor of Nan Heng may have also transmigrated.

Then I started feeling bad for the ML as we find out more about his story beyond what the FL read from the initial script book, esp in the scene where the ML is angry at the FL for not understanding him and his reasons, why he doesn’t trust anyone. It’s moments
like these where I wished the ML had someone like Xiao Qiao in TPOB that tried to understand and support him. Comparison is indeed a thief of happiness. Or rather I just wish that he was more understood if I was to rlly feel the development of the romance between him (who encompasses both Nan Heng and Shi Liu) and the FL.

heard they are filming this as a vertical short film series that will be more similar to the book version since they will be less restricted by censorship? anyone confirm?

rlly enjoyed this drama! Love strong passionate romance with smart leads plus when there is a side plot going on. Haven’t watched a drama this good since Blossom! Side note: When Shi Yuan walked in saying “who said there was no commander”, I only heard his voice first and deadasss thought it was the scholar who had lots of muscles and claimed that he never practised martial arts LMAO (sounded like him too).

I do agree that the last ep was rushed and also there were unnecessary deaths. Seems to be common the c-dramas, we saw this in The Double ending (in the fact the ending was so ambiguous that the audience even questioned whether the ML was alive and there was a whole special ep created bc of this). I also watched Kill Me Love Me (one of my favourites), the first half was amazing (the deer hunt) but second half arc was flawed. Nonetheless, the ending for it was very impactful and left a long lasting feeling that I never moved on before bc of such strong feelings of love, loss and regret.

I did notice that this drama and The Double had a common point where it sorta wished the viewers well and returned us to the real world at the end of the drama. Very beautiful and smart.

Thanks! Just off what happened in the novel, how long was it till Su E huang was kicked out from the Wei family then? Mid way plot? (I know the drama might not follow this, but just wondering!)
