Episode 15
CY decided to sing their childhood song on stage in order to draw XC out in the courtesan house. XY arrived and spotted CY on stage and thereafter the aunt came in looking for the couple.
A drunk XC heard the song and began to reminiscence how he and CY relied on each other when they were young. He did not come forward however and CY thought that he has forgotten about the song. The other audience did not enjoy the performance and boo-ed her/threw stuff to get her off the stage. XY came forward to protect her on the stage.
The aunt heard the song as well and remembered it as the song she hummed to young XY and his brother at bedtime. Their parents were stationed at the borders, so she was tasked to look after them. She did not expect someone to know this song after some many years and that the singer (she didn’t know that it was CY) should be someone who has been through a lot of hardship.
XY confronted CY who compared kinship needing sincerity and trust to flower needing sunlight and rain. She believed with that she can change XC to be willing to meet her. At this moment the aunt’s maid came knocking on the door looking for the “singer”. A surprised CY went into hiding.
The time came for CY to turn into pig and she fled so not to let XY discover her transformation. XC also realised the timing and wanted to go find CY. His advisor commented that this is a good chance for him to sever ties with CY and let the Xue family handle it. XC thought that no outsider could understand her situation and would treat her like a monster. He also knew that CY have taken a liking to XY as she was willing to use up a dream for him; so in order for her to be able to stay at Xue’s mansion, it’s best to keep the transformation a secret.
CY made her way to the aunt’s room while evading the hooded guy’s men who knew of her situation. She began to gorge on the food in the aunt’s room like a pig and XY arrived to help hide her identity from the aunt. He sensed something wrong about her. The aunt managed to lift CY’s veil and fainted upon seeing her appearance. XC came at this moment to usher CY away and XY brought the aunt back.
The next scene brings us to the following day at a place called Song Mansion (where hooded guy was stationed). A military dog had followed the scent of the expensive cosmetic and it is highly suspicious that it was coming from some run-down building. XY’s men waited too long and when they stormed into the mansion, the occupants have escaped. XY and men spotted a suspicious totem/symbol.
At their new base, the hooded guy blamed his men for failing to capture CY as they have only one chance left after pig transformation, after which the stone will lose its effect. The men reported that the old men having the other half of the book is still in the city and they will track him down. Hooded guy gave them a month to capture CY and get the book, or die.
XY had a bad dream that CY turned into a pig and tried to kiss him. He obviously missed her.
CY woke up in human form and found that XC brought her to the Palace and left at dawn. CY cannot recall what happened and is worried that XY have discovered her secret. XY missing CY went to the palace to look for her and told her she acted funny at the courtesan house. She explained that she might have been drunk. Hooded guy’s men suddenly appeared to abduct CY and XY fought them off. CY at this point recalled the skill, scent and eyes of her life-saving benefactor and linked him to XY. As they were pursing the abductors, Concubine Su interrupted and the leader escaped.
The couple of abductors XY captured committed suicide and he suspected the man behind must be some big shot. CY feared that she might bring harm to the Xue household if she goes back so she decided to stay put in the palace.
She doesn't turn into the animals but according to the book the stone releases something at the particular timing…
Someone mentioned that it is not from a novel. I think it was episode 8 when the hooded guy read out the half book - think the hallucination affects everyone including the FL. But she must really have strong teeth for the episode she turned into a rat. :)
I'm really loving the romance written for Xue Yao and Xu Chu Yue! The chemistry was particularly great in Ep.…
She doesn't turn into the animals but according to the book the stone releases something at the particular timing that causes the hallucination of the FL turning into animals (though it still doesn't make it necessary). FL is really sweet in tonight's episodes. :)
Does the ML sell herbal tea in the show? The English title is weird...
I see the cast and I actually know quite a few of them from variety shows, singing groups as well. The dialect unless it is in hokkien it is fine. Yeah overbearing ceo is such a cdrama trope. Lol

Thanks! I did a search, Taiwanese Drama not really my thing but I'll put this in my plan to watch since is 20. It is still running, 1 episode per week? :) Yeah I am really hard to please. lol
Just read the summary, it is a bit TROTAR which I like.
Does the ML sell herbal tea in the show? The English title is weird...
Yes, it has to be specifically Wuxia - not even period dramas. I am watching a 2017 drama "Chef Fang" total 36 episodes, now I am at 23 and no urge to carry on... :(

I guess 24 episodes is the max allowed for silly, light hearted romance dramas as the contents normally is limited. The rest will be the aesthetics as well as the chemistry between the leads to keep it going.
I was completely satisfied with ending, but one thing which bothered me was the head nurse/mother part.But I got…
Yes I am glad too that the head nurse part wasn't too stretched - I roll my eyes whenever she appears with the smirk on her face, like she is laughing at the people behind the camera or TV. Ah and all the wild theories, luckily it didn't come out if not it will be more farfetched. The charm of the drama for me was the moments between the actors and how they presented it - simple and beautiful. Intense that I needed to rewind 30 secs to read the subtitles again. So when the head nurse came all dramatic and loud...

FL was so sweet in tonight's episodes, felt quite sorry for her.
