Yes that sounds very much like the situation described in the drama. Situations really can bring out ugly sides of people that you never knew existed. Sorry that your mom has received unwarranted hate all these years.
Bro is it xianxia or wuxia as i saw in ep 1 that he used some kinda power to heal her?
haha indeed. yes its my favourite drama because the ML and FL are always good to each other and there is no miscommunication/misunderstandings between them.
i'm assuming the WeTV.vip is the official site. Has everyone had good history with it? I don't want to sub if…
wetv vip sub here. have had a good experience with it for the past few years. however the vip sub does NOT include the express package for shows. each express package (each show that has the package) you will have to pay extra for, which is about 6 USD.
Bro is it xianxia or wuxia as i saw in ep 1 that he used some kinda power to heal her?
no there are a few other "magical" things that happen, like how one can control their Qi/energy to make a copy of writing on a piece of paper behind it. There is also a scene where the ML and FL are learning new martial arts techniques and water flows in a kind of a sphere shape around them . And also a few healing scenes just like the first one you mentioned where they use energy to heal.
I am glad they are making Pei Lin stand her ground and not going back to her ex husband. That case was kinda stressful…
it looks painfully like Xiao Yun and Xiao Yue (FL new assistant) are going to be a thing. He's a nice guy supporting her but I'd rather the show didn't go in that direction. That girl needs to stay alone for a while haha
I love this drama but my one critique about it is to the writers yes they made the FL strong so that she can beat…
I don't recall them ever fighting so I'm curious why you think he is stronger than her? he is very cunning and a great strategist so he can win battles from that perspective but as for strength, I don't believe we are shown she is any less strong than he is.
Ok can someone tell is all the episodes released and where to watch? Like i watched till 19th ep but ate the rest…
the rest of the episodes are available to those who pay for an express package on wetv. im not aware of anywhere that you can watch the episodes outside of that atm
Wǒ chéngrèn (I admit) episode 13 was a bit of a dumpster fire. From the vertical drama premise to firmly establish a couple will not get back together, they have the woman lose the baby. I felt Peilin's loss was completely unnecessary to the story and it was done poorly with no emotional gravity. It went a bit preachy again when Peilin and TYY were discussing it in the car about how the audience should be in life.
That aside, the new conflict with the TYY's boyfriend and his "sister-in-law" argh.. TYY looked ready to throw the relationship away at the first sign of trouble. I think the girl (boyfirend's sister in-law) will use the threat of taking her own life to get the boyfriend to end the relationship with TYY. When TYY destroyed the sandcastle and the said it was a crooked foundation maybe she foresaw the boyfriend spoiling the girl was something that would likely be an insurmountable wall. In any case, I imagine after next episode TYY and her boyfriend will break up, which would tie up that saga so that the ML will have a window in to the romance side.
interesting analogy about the scale, and in one aspect correct. however she said she would suppory Peilin in whatever…
fully appreciate your perspective and reply. each person's life experience will interpet the events that happen in the show differently. the definition of infidelity is pretty concrete (sleeping with a person that is not your partner). some people can see past it, others can't.
yes FL was a voice inside Peilin's ear for that month ,but this is very like real life where people marry because of someone else's opinion eg. the womans father likes that man, or when a friend tells their best friend NOT to divorce. Nothing happens in isolation and there are many things that contribute to an outcome. You might not like how the FL meddles but there are many people in life just like this and that's just the reality.
Is the FL a textbook hero? No. But I dont think this story is trying to make her be one. It's showing a person very competent in some aspects, and undeveloped in others. She has her strengths and weaknesses, and is very much like most of us trying the best with the cards dealt to her.

100% agree that the whole first case went from "guy is acquitted" to serving time. completely unexplained that once she found out about the truth from the victim, how he still got convicted. Complete plot hole and the weakest part of the series yet not even giving an inch to explain how it happened.
Yes FL did ignore Peilin's comment when they first discussed, but the hubby had 100 opportunities to right the wrong and convince Peilin otherwise during the following month. Peilin was still hopeful the outcome could be different
Irrespective of all that, the conversation that the FL and Peilin had after Peilin and her husband said "goodbye" was that Peilin had lost herself in the relationship already a year prior to that and was having trouble sleeping. That conversation showed she divorced to reclaim her identity and peace rather than it being anything outside of herself. I found the conversation was a bit preachy and directed to the audience about being one's own light, but thats a side rant haha.
In my opinion the fact that Peilin was willing to have a 3rd baby for her husband at the likely detriment to her own health and body showed she was priortising his wishes over her own bottom line, for the sake of her love for him. When that love and willing to give was not reciprocated, (with him seeking a male heir with another woman) all bets were off and why it makes full sense she could not reconcile with the infidelity.
Lin Xiao Yun....sigh sigh 😕 😔 smh right now.They say, "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes" and…
hahaha those two people did indeed win stupid prizes!
yeah i think LXY was 100% bluffing with the pregnancy. her husband (ex) said she had changed which I think was the biggest hint for the audience to know she would use methods she would have previously not considered. The actress played a character I didn't like in Sword Snow Stride so I still see elements of her selfish character from that in this drama haha
Peilin's husband, yeah he was thick as bricks. The first thing he did when his infidelity was discovered was try to justify it, then went with the "i was wrong" approach and didn't say more than 2 words about the matter. It was a bit robotic and hardly like a loving husband. So 20 years loving communicator then cheats and lies? A 2D and nonsensical character. For me, his significance to the story was to show the ML would not prioritise money over values.
I watched that scene of TYY swoon over director Kang's speech to the victims of the scam 5 TIMES, it was so well done. How she went to him afterwards and hardly was able to utter a compliment was hilarious. My favourite scenes so far. A great start to them working better together.
Director Kang repeatedly said in meetings something to the extent of "we are all in this together - we need to work together" so it was very in line with his motto to "leave no one behind". Yeah few would lead like that in real life, but it was consistent with his workplace mentality he has been trying to promote.
I'm going to be that person— don't throw tomatoes at me... i know this ain't abt romance BUT does this have…
FL's romance with her boyfriend is that 1% as a subplot, but I think it is entirely possible that the FL and ML will form a relationship in future episodes. There is a subtext in the story that makes one strongly believe that the FL and ML are endgame.

They never explained what happened to chuchu's brother. I always guessed he died but it was left unanswered, like the writers forgot about him.
