What I love about this drama is, contrary to everything else out there right now, the leads have fallen in love…
From awkward hugs to running hugs to asking to be spoiled he he he he...I love what you wrote about those mundane days.
I remember one time a friend told me that during Covid lockdowns (during the time when they had to work from home a lot), lots of couples realized that they couldn't handle being in the same house together for days on end. This friend of mine said, "Why did you get married if you don't like spending a lot of time with each other like that?" LOL!
What I also like about this drama is also the fact that they're not the typical (cough cough) childhood sweethearts. Getting tired of the trope that puts first love on a pedestal.
the male lead(ZWY) looks cute n so childish when he's jealous or is with the female lead...overall he's got excellent…
Yes, I love how his eyes can show remorse/sorrow while his lips pretend to smile due to his conflicting emotions...or when he tries to pretend he's not jealous/when he tries to suppress his feelings/desire HEHEHEHEHEHEH...Due to the plot of this drama, he can show so many different micro expressions. I LOVE it!
When each of them respectively started to want to be spoiled by the other person, that's when it's clear that their intimacy level had gone up. Examples:
If we don't take account the lies and the amnesia, the two leads are actually a power couple. LMT is worth being the spouse of a general/lord like Cui Xing Zhou. LMT can help CXZ in many different ways that none of the other two ladies can do (in this drama particularly He Zhen/A Lian).
He Zhen + Zhao Quan fit each other better he he he he...love the fact that Zhao Quan left that cute drawing in her carriage LOL LOL!!!! I really like the actor who plays Zhao Quan, too. He fits the role perfectly and he has a natural rapport with Zhang Wan Yi.
At first I thought he was going to draw the FL LOL!!! But it's great that he's drawing the ML instead (while teasing him at the same time). I love their dynamics, too, also when he was going to eat the crab roe rice and ML wouldn't let him HAHAHAHAHAHAHH...
Giggling like crazy at the beginning of ep. 8 after she showed off her lovely nightgown and he was trying hard…
Yep, after staring at her chest area for a while BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA...and I love the near-kiss as well 'coz it felt natural. Also love how he refused to share the crab roe rice with the doctor friend, even though he kept on saying he wasn't jealous HAHAHAHAHAHA...Yeah, right, boy, who are you kidding? LOL!!!
Whenever cxz mentions"playing house with her" i just couldn’t hold my laughter...my boy really abandoning his…
Pretending not to care when he heard news that she was sick, but then he went off running (literally) home with medicinal herbs. 😂😂😂😂😂😂He's already THAT much in love even though he keeps on denying it.
For me, the main couple's story is also refreshing 'coz they're neither the typical bickering couple or the "normal" wedded couple. Normally I don't really prefer amnesia story (esp. combined with a lying guy), but done right, it can be quite entertaining. I quite enjoy the progression from a fake couple into a more intimate one. The part where he got flustered when she tried to feed him the yam (also when his servant was enjoying this scene) was cute and made me giggly.
Cui Jiu oh Cui Jiu.. just how far will this guy lie to Liu Mianting.. lies after lies.. all for the sake of catching…
Giggling like crazy at the beginning of ep. 8 after she showed off her lovely nightgown and he was trying hard as hell to control himself BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
Some people think Zhang Wanyi should play Cui Xing Zhou and Cui Jiu equally, on an actor-character level. But…
I really enjoy his acting in this drama and his comedic parts, too, but I've always have a soft spot for actors/actresses who excel at comedic scenes because done wrong, the comedy can fall flat he he he...

- When she pushed her arm out of the tent and then said to him, "My arm is painful" and then he started massaging it.
