Really enjoying this drama...it is so sweat and low key. Also it looks very beautiful and not cheap at all. (…
From book) As for Luo Zishang (Liu Xue Yi), in a way there is a love triangle. Luo Zishang has a special affection for Liu Yuru, a gratitude, because in the past, when they were teenagers, she treated him with tenderness. Gave him an umbrella and an osmantus cake. (In the book there is even a poetic passage that talks about "the osmantus cake that touches his heart, and if it weren't for the betrayal of fate, the two of them would face the world together". I remember scenes in the book where Luo Zishang, in the midst of his schemes, still finds time to save Liu Yuru. (But…that's not the focus, although there are a significant amount of scenes in the book about that). And Luo Zishang from the moment he believes he has paid his debt to Liu Yuru, he indulges in his stratagems (which are actually related to his father), and with Gu Jiu Si, there is a scene in the book, where the two come together in a moment to vanquish a common enemy. (I don't know anymore as I couldn't read the book any further, for over a hundred chapters.). The story of Luo Zi Shan is filled with the tragedies and abandonment he suffered from his family. He looks like the villain, but in the end he's more of a victim. This character appears in the final third of the book, but he is a very nuanced character. So it's interesting to bring him to the beginning of the story and highlight him, because he is more interesting than the other characters that could appear as the second male. PS: Even in the book he emphasizes the similar eyes of the two boys. (As if they were faces in a mirror.). And Gu Jiu Si was the kind of person that Luo Zi Shang would be but fate turned around. ps 2: I just don't know if Luo Zishang recognizes the osmantus cake umbrella girl as Liu Yuru.
ps3: The tragic past refers to the treatment that Luo Zi shang received by his family, father, uncle, parents, his life references. And as for Gu Jiu Si, it is a complex that arises in Luo Zishang's heart because Gu Jiu Si has everything he would like to be and have (deep in his heart, it is the love of his family that he did not have that created this hole in his soul, I think). It's psychological. Ps: See that it is mentioned that Luo Zishang is the last member of his family, that they all died in a tragedy and he is the only one left. But, this will be explained in the story what really happened.
(From book) As for Luo Zishang (Liu Xue Yi), in a way there is a love triangle. Luo Zishang has a special affection…
I read the beginning of the book and fragments left by fan readers, so unfortunately I don't have those details. What I know (in general) is that there will be clashes with enemies (Luo Zi Shang) is not the real, or at least, the only enemy in this story, there are others in line (like the Emperor, who will be advised by Luo Zi Shang ), another, an old noble (whose name I don't remember. I know there will be interweaving interests from various groups. There are these soldiers on the battlefield shown in the trailer, who are part of stratagems, intrigues. That will be all involved. But, unfortunately, details, I do not have.
I've already read 46 chapters out of a total of 53. In the book, the couple discovers little by little that they love each other. He has in his heart a memory and love for a woman that he will realize after her from his past (the goddess he loves). And she thinks she loves another man, someone she came to save by bringing the death of the male lead in order to save the man she thinks she loves. But in the day to day of living with her target of destruction (the male protagonist), she discovers that she is in love with him. But it happens slowly, as they get to know each other and live together, saving each other's lives over and over again.
(From book) As for Luo Zishang (Liu Xue Yi), in a way there is a love triangle. Luo Zishang has a special affection…
Yes, both. Readers of the book always comment on this: the happy ending and the entrepreneurial success of the couple, including helping the city and its people.
Someone said that LZS will be the 2nd ML awhile back ago? Can someone who read the novel explain that to me?
Oh, ok. Yes the childhood story of Liu Yu Ru and Luo Zi Shang is a spoiler. And now it comes to my mind: Luo Zi Shang is not acknowledging his childhood love?
In this episode we see the girl Yu Ru showing her desire for independence to fulfill her dreams. She proudly repeats the treatment they gave her: “Boss Liu)”. Gu Jiu Si sees this and they talk about this dream of hers. But she thinks they won't appreciate her for being young. Gu Jiu Si encourages her, and the two strike a deal. He will fulfill the dream of passing the exams. And she to earn her million. Their conversation in the garden is the conversation of two people making progress together. There's a scene in this episode: Liu Yu Ru meets former love interest (Ye Shi An), but she puts an end to any feelings that might have existed between them. The villain Luo Zi Shang talks to his subordinate, and shows that he is behind the bankruptcy of the century-old fabric store, but he is informed that Gu Jiu Si's wife provided the owner with the resources to not lose the store. Luo Zi Shang comments: “It's Madam Gu again”, and he finds it very interesting. He asks the subordinate to investigate her. At this point in the story Luo Zi Shang doesn't seem that dangerous, but he is someone who takes advantage of the downfall of others.

Hi, Cdrama ! I didn't understand what you meant. Explain me better. I know there is a character called Jiang He (Luo Zi Shang's father). Is that what you're talking about?
Can somebody spoil me? What's Liu Xeuyi's character here?...and omg, so many actors here are from TBOY.
