Very good drama. The visuals are excellent. At episode 3. There’s a bit of humor here and there, but realistic in its depiction of how misunderstandings, insensitivity, and lack of communication tear down a marriage. Reminds me of “Queen of Tears.” Very interested to see how (if) this couple turns things around. Both leads are bringing maturity to the roles despite their youth. Good acting.
However, the FL’s 18 yr-old self and her 38 yr-old self look exactly the same. The makeup artist should have done something differently to create a stronger distinction. The age difference was clear though with the ML. I barely even recognized Zhang Ling He as a “40 yr old” with that facial hair.
Did we get that kiss and hug scene with them in blue? ( the one we have in the photos above)
Honestly, I don’t remember. The kisses we did get were underwhelming and unsatisfying. Great drama and chemistry, but a total miss for me as far as skinship. Director, do better. Learn from “Story of Kunning Palace.”
I hear people saying the show finishes tomorrow, and has to do with some express package. How do I get this? Also…
You have to have an account in the Youku app or website in order to purchase the express package to get the final episodes ahead of the regular public.
XFF should take revenge on SYR and not Princess W. SYR seduced Princess W., fooled her, endured her mistreatment,…
The Princess pursued/seduced Shen Yurong first. She started the mess. He told her he was married, but, ye, eventually succumbed as he saw an opportunity to social climb. So, he’s no saint either. But, she started it.
I am conflicted with Shen Yurong. He was not a good husband to FL, but he had helped her get into the school and…
They’re trying to make him a sympathetic character. But, he’s trash no matter how you slice it. He threw his wife in a pit and buried her alive. I do wonder, however, if he built in a means for her to escape. How in the world was she able to dig her way out? Anywho, he’s in survival mode. Disclosing Jiang Li’s true identity would not help him at all right now. He mostly cares about himself, with maybe the tiniest morsel of regret towards Xue Fangfei. He chose his path. As bad as the princess is to him, he seems to dig being a sub for that demented dominatrix.
Not really, in my opinion. I might drop it. It’s ok. I love Crystal Liu the actress, but I dislike this character so far. I’m enjoying the brother’s romance though. He’s a green flag.
The way she flipped out upon learning he took a job in Paris turned me off. Beyond ridiculous. He didn’t say let’s break up. True, he should have told her, but they only just started dating. I can understand her disappointment, but she’s expecting too much too soon. I don’t know if I can stick with this drama.
