What exactly is the relationship between them. I mean all that kissing and coldness at the same time.. Such an…
Their relationship had already peaked before the series started. So they aren't establishing anything new. Chen Yi is the only obstacle in their love. Miao Jing is fighting for his worth & their relationship.
He was 2 years older than her. Once MJ teased Chen Yi with random office colleagues, to which he replied, 3 years older is really bad. It's a real age gap that can't be considered đ¤Łđ

I respect your sentiment as these r ur feeling, and surely no one can dictate for how one should feelâĽď¸ I just hope one day if you have some leisure time, you watch this show the second time and see the life from their perspectives. If you ask me, Their journey was so scarred. It's incredible that Chen Yi even developed that self less love and was ready to give away his entire happiness for seeing his beloved prosper in life. Miao Jing instead of following her mom's footsteps of being selfish & ungrateful, developed extreme appreciation for Chen Yi's love & sacrifices & even became so good at communicating her feelings. I think so many of us can't even express our feelings to the intended person.

Thank u for the sweet comment. I'm glad u enjoyed my ramblings đ Agreed! He was completely her home. As for what would have happened if Chen Yi had ultimately refused to accept her, obviously, we can only speculate. Yes, she had the means to move on, and Chen Yi wanted her to have a much better life. She did achieve that life. But there was something about her absolute confidence in her place in his life that makes me believe she would never have simply let him walk away.
Soon. The drama doesn't tell us everything straight out. For example, the scene where he hugged her from behind…
Starvation was Chen Yi felt but dared not to express it. Remember way back when they were young adults, she was still in high school, MJ was already at the level where when CY came to pick her up but in the business lady's car, she got so annoyed. Then when in school some1 mentioned that if you look in the eyes of your lover just 3 seconds, the urge to kiss will emerge. At the street dinner, she wanted to experience that already. As for Chen Yi, the next morning every gesture of his showed complete love & devotion to her. Even picking her up, on his own, when she couldn't reach the dragon. Umm & he held her for a while. It wasn't a touch & back to ground kinda scene đ As for Chen Yi, his clear words of the prayer were" My wish is simple. I hope she has a smooth & peaceful life. From this point on, May we always walk this road TOGETHER" âĽď¸âĽď¸
There is a story of flies who asked the Moth King why moths were given an elevated status. âBecause they seek the light,â he said. âIf we find the light too, will we be given the same status?â they asked. âFind it first,â said the king. âThen we shall see.â
The flies returned, boasting of all the lights they had foundâfireworks, fireflies, lamps.
The king only smiled. âIf you truly found the light, why did you return to the darkness? When one finds their light, they are consumed by it.â
For MJ, Chen Yi was her light. How could she walk away and leave him to be consumed by his love for her alone? When you find the light that is truly yours, shouldnât your soul instinctively turn toward it, not away?
Perhaps MJ came into his life to teach him that it is okay to accept the light they are to each otherâto surrender to it, even if it consumes them entirely. Because in their story, there was never meant to be room for anyone else.
absolutely agreed!!! â¤ď¸ They both deserved a standing ovation for an outstanding performance on this drama.…
Yes, the last episode definitely seems rushed. I really hope the variety episodes all get their translation. TBH at this point, I feel so greedy, if they gave me the proposal & the wedding, I would be asking to see their married life & raising the kids together. I don't see myself wanting to move away from them đĽš
If she truly loved him so much and always intended to come back and take him away from the life he was living,…
I understand why it may look contradictory at first, but I think Miao Jingâs choices make much more sense when we distinguish between moving on with her life and moving on from Chen Yi. The fact that she had relationships during those six years doesnât necessarily mean she stopped loving him or that her promise to return was meaningless. Chen Yi had asked her to make a life of her ownâa painful but complete submission to his belief that she deserved something better. She was young, forced to leave home, and needed to build an independent life before she could realistically return and ask Chen Yi to accept her fully.
There was also an important psychological reason why she couldnât simply return to him immediately. Remember how her mother treated Chen Yiâessentially throwing MJ at his disposal and even leaving him with the debt. Both MJ and CY were painfully aware of that history. Miao Jing couldnât come back to his door with nothing but her need for him and recreate the same dynamic. She needed to become her own person first.
That is precisely why I think her return carries more weight. She had built a life of her own, and had other choices. Yet, when she finally came back, she chose Chen Yi. She wasnât returning because she had nowhere else to go. She was returning because, after everything she had experienced, she still wanted him.
This is also where Miao Jingâs conversations with Chen Yi become so important. She wasnât simply saying, âI love you, so let me stay.â She was trying to challenge the way he saw himself. In the conversation about the lost earrings, when she essentially asks, âWhy wouldnât your earrings matter? Why wouldnât you matter?â, she is confronting his entire worldview. She is telling him that his worth isnât determined by his circumstances, his past, his guilt, or what he thinks he can provide for her. He matters. His happiness matters. His desires matter. And his place beside her matters.
Chen Yiâs instinct was always to remove himself from the equationâto sacrifice himself, decide what was best for Miao Jing, and believe that loving her meant letting her go. But Miao Jing was trying to teach him something entirely different: loving her did not mean erasing himself from her life. She wanted him to see his own worth and fight for both of themânot by sacrificing himself for her or pushing her toward a supposedly better life without him, but by standing beside her as a whole person who also deserved to be loved and chosen.
Miao Jing needed to become someone who could return to Chen Yi by choice, not dependence. And Chen Yi needed to understand that she wasnât someone he had to save by sending her away.
That is why his question, âWhy did you come back to rot with me?â, is so heartbreaking. If Miao Jing had returned without a life of her own, Chen Yi could have convinced himself that she was simply settling for him because she had nowhere else to go. But she had lived. She had grown. She had other choices. And after all of that, she was still standing in front of him, choosing him.
She wasnât saying, âI canât live without you.â She was saying, in her own way: âI can live. I have lived. I could have chosen other paths, but I am complete only with you. Now you need to stop believing that you are someone who doesnât deserve to be chosen.â
That, to me, is the emotional key to Miao Jingâs return. She wasnât merely fighting for her right to love Chen Yi. She was fighting for Chen Yi to believe that he was worthy of being lovedâand worthy of fighting for his own happiness, too.
What do they say? A picture is worth a thousand words. â¤ď¸
What stands out to me most is the contrast between Miao Jingâs radiant happiness and Chen Yiâs quiet protectiveness.
Miao Jing is smiling so openly and brightly. She looks completely safe, cherished, and content in his arms. And Chen Yi has his arms wrapped around her in this almost instinctive, protective way, as if his first reaction is simply to hold her close and keep her within his embrace. He isnât smiling, but thereâs something incredibly tender in the way he holds her. His body language almost says, âYouâre mine to protect. Stay close to me.â
And I love how naturally she fits into his arms. 𼚠Itâs almost as if sheâs the sunshine, and heâs the shelter around her. It feels like such a beautiful visual representation of their relationship: her warmth softening him, and his strength giving her a place that she calls Home.
Miao Jing is glowing with happiness, completely at ease in Chen Yiâs embrace, while Chen Yi holds her with the quiet, instinctive protectiveness of someone who has finally found the person he never wants to lose. â¤ď¸

Surely the best Drama of the year! What amazing characters with their chaotic journey portrayed but flaw less acting by Song Wei Long & Zhang Jing Yi. I hope they win an award for this show. Their chemistry was off the charts. Kept me glued to the screen. What a performanceâĽď¸
