after Wei Qian saying he was still confused i didn't see them ending up in bed, but i guess an ep from the end 'we' needed to move sh*t along. am more worried about Wei Qian medical condition & i hope this doesn't turn tragic by the end. this is so well acted, really feel sad that it's ending lol... ********************************************************************************************btw wonder if in the novel there is more of Xiao Yuan back story. but am too lazy to go search for a translated version online so will be left wondering -

find it interesting that the reason Tan Yu & Li Li were paired was for Tan Yu to give Wei Qian his perspective of how he felt weird when he 1st started noticing/wanting to date Li Li. as they r two-sides of the same coin. ***********************************but i loved that even though almost everyone is putting pressure on Wei Qian to just give in & try being with Xiao Yuan he is true to himself & as he is confused & unsure he isn't shying away. really love this side to him - well he has always had a very strong character, otherwise he wouldn't have survived let alone thrived in the circumstances he was born into & have to grow-up in. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but am really worried about his health, i get why he is avoiding getting treatment, it's cause to him both his siblings r still kids that need him & he is scared that if anything happens to them, then who will take care of them. now i am really worried something will happen to him & this is gonna turn tragic.

this is zooming by - at the speed of freakin light i am almost at the end... lso it took me a while be finally i realized the hunky anti-social doctor is Gao Shi De from We Best Love - been a while since i have seen him anything. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************regarding the ep - must say i don't get Boss Lee, this the 2nd time Wei Qian has come to him for help (after he left his gang with his ok) & Boo Lee turns around & makes it ok for his gang member to assault him. idk what Xiao Yuan was thinking, going to find Boss Lee, he just endangered the person he was trying to protect. & sorry that b*tc with a limp not gonna just let Wei Qian go cause he is pissed that he has amounted to sh*t while Wei Qian has made a successful life of himself after leaving the gang. & now that they know Xiao Yuan face, he wont be safe either. i don't get this "snake" rearing it's ugly head after so much time...****************************************************************************************************************************************regarding Xiao Yuan & Wei Qian, Wei Qian loves both his siblings very much - so him fighting for or hugging them after he almost saw them die isn't unheard off. but it doesn't translate to sexual love - even him hearing that Xiao Yuan almost lost his life in an avalanche doesn't suddenly change the fact that he has brought up Xiao Yuan as his son...

know everyone else is elated, by the new persona Xiao Yuan has taken on. personally i don't - cause he is manipulating Wei Qian & idk how i feel about it. i guess Wei Qian needs a push to move forward. but is that a good thing? it's very complex & sometimes people like how things r, rocking the boat isn't always a good thing. ****************************************************but i guess, as this is adapted for a novel written by Priest, who tends to write pretty x-rated, hardcore BL's i kinda know where this is going. manipulation, gaslighting r insignificant compared to what passes as romance & wooing in her books. ************** ****************************************************************************************************************************************regarding Wei Qian reaction to finding out that his sister & bff r dating. logical reaction. they lied to him & his sister is significantly younger then his bff, who is older then even his own damn self - so of course he would be seeing red wondering when his friend decided to target his sister - when they got together etc...

from what "ailment" is Wei Qian suffering... like plz don't tell me this got a sad ending, cause ima riot!!! cause i don't want anyone to die like plz & thank u - enough watching the "brother's" suffering through all this angst cause of their relationship & their feelings. anyone normal will have major problems flipping from family almost a parental figure mode to lover. so Wei Qian taking time to accept his feeling isn't unrealistic. even now idk if he is ready to be with Xiao Yuan s more then siblings. he for sure misses him & loves him. but does him telling Xiao Yuan "come back if u miss home" equate to i love u too!???!? idk...

aish what an ep - but we knew it was a long time coming & Xiao Yuan himself said he would go crazy if Wei Qian found himself a partner. i get Tan Yu caring so much for Wei Qian, he wants to help him even without being asked, but him telling Xiao Yuan "...do u know what a tough life Wei Qian has had..." & i am sitting here scratching my head - wasn't Xiao Yuan the one sleeping on the streets?? did he have it bad???? ***********************************************************************************************this is why at the start of this, was wondering if Tan Yu & Wei Qian were a couple. cause he not related & yet he acts like he is a part of their family - when he isn't, even friends don't get this involved - not on their own accord. ********************************he more or less got the ball rolling & Xiao Yuan who was sick & hearing all that gossip & seeing Feng Ning act all cozy with Wei Qian, add the wine & then we get what we got. **************************************************************************************ironic & yet not shocking that Xiao Yuan had nothing to fear as Wei Qian had NO intentions of being with anyone, i have said this before (idk what his mother has done to him) but he has a phobia of women, so i doubt there will ever come a time where he is ready to commit to one. using his younger sibling was an excuse.******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the train-wreck was emotional mayhem to watch, i got why Wei Qian was ghosting Xiao Yuan, he might have started off angry but he was more worried & terrified about what to do & how to deal with the situation & he couldn't come up with any solution's, other then Tan Yu suggestion to get Xiao Yuan to move out. what else could he do, then run away from the problem.*Xiao Yuan on the other hand - poor soul, my heart went out to him - how can u blame him??? of course one would love Wei Qian, he didn't just give him a home, he - when he was a child himself, took him off the streets, gave him education, a roof & then saved his life & got beaten to keep him safe. what Xiao Yuan must feel for Wei Qian is beyond gratitude, not even being indebted covers the debt he must feel, he wants to take care of his savior & being gay of course that also translated to attraction. or so i think...

Tan Yu is pretty fast on the uptake - he knew right away that Xiao Yuan's special someone was Wei Qian, which Wei Qian also knows but isn't ready to face, cause he more or less raised Xiao Yuan, so i get how weird that will feel to him. ********************btw i think Tan Yu called the new investor "ur future sister-in-law" just to force Xiao Yuan to show his cards. personally i don't like this, cause i don't see any good coming out of it - neither "brother" is ready for this revelation & their happy family life will be shattered, by this truth. ***********************************************************************************************************even though some thing needs to shatter for them to move forward, or they will just keep existing as is & if Wei Qian does find a woman he is wants to marry, Xiao Yuan's life will turn into pure hell - where he might literally go crazy. which in turn will also hurt Wei Qian, who wont understand why his younger brother is suffering or how to help him. & the one thing that is very clear is how much Wei Qian loves his siblings - even above his own self. *****************************************************************Tan Yu is an interesting character - he is a very good guy & a good friend, so not shocking that Li Li is smitten. the question is - will they end up together?!? & if so will Wei Qian approve???

why does it feel like Tan Yu noticed something - when there wasn't anything much to notice. maybe how Xiao Yuan treasured Wei Qian gift, more then the other 2 gifts he received?!? still that not enough of an indicator to his feelings - no?!? ******************************************************************************************************************************************************also Wei Qian feels the tension when Xiao Yuan gets too close, that's why he keeps telling him "it's too hot, get off/away..." & maybe cause he see's Xiao Yuan as a brother, he doesn't want to admit to what is clear to the eye. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also given Li Li showing him Xiao Yuan's reading genre preference's i guess he understood that Xiao Yuan is gay - that's why he suddenly remembered & asked about the class-monitor. but also i have a feeling he also loves Xiao Yuan & not as a brother. just cause he more or less brought him up as a son/younger brother - he can't make a switch or face what he truly feels. this freakin complex

the way Wei Qian takes care of his siblings is awe inspiring - there actual parents that don't do half of what he is doing & the constant sacrificing, he ALWAYS put's them before himself. it seems like sometimes what he wanted for himself & could do cause of the kids that were relying on him he wants them to achieve, especially Xiao Yuan. ***************************************the fact he has a phobia of women is saddening. what his mother did to him - really not everyone should be a parent. but that's why his sister is infuriating me. ******************************************************************************************************it's ironic that she is his biological sibling, but she a freakin spoilt brat, she saw & experienced 1st hand her mother's madness & even if she was too young to get what her brother went through to support them, am sure she saw him coming back late - she not wonder where her tuition, the rent for their house, her clothes let alone the food she ate came from?!?? she not care that her brother was working himself to the bone, so she could continue living without a care?!?****************************************************************************************************************************************given the life her mother lived, didn't she wonder how she got addicted? wonder that maybe she could go down a similar path, being an airhead getting into a car with a stranger? i get she is young, but she is also very self-involved & undeserving of a brother like Wei Qian.

the whole interaction with the teacher was so funny, dude's a low-talker, poor Wei Qian had to lean in to hear WTF he was saying at times & then the pushing of the "magic club"... lol - given how serious this BL is, that funny moment was much needed.****************************************************************************************************************************************really love how much Wei Qian cares for his siblings - they literally r his life - his world revolves around them. considering what little we see about his abusive mother it breaks my heart all over again. & also warms it as seeing Xiao Yuan being as loving & reciprocal, he cares for Wei Qian as much as Wei Qian cares for him. seeing him trying to work or using the 'red envelopes' to pay the bills. makes my heart break with how beautiful this family is. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but am wondering is Li Li, Wei Qian's biological sibling? as his mother was a drug addict & in a bad way so when she have time to have another child. or what she a baby at the time Wei Qian was getting abused so we didn't see her.

this was heartbreakingly beautiful - seeing orphans just ignored/abandoned, no one caring for them is terrifying, but it's also heartwarming that even with the burden or surviving, making a living for himself & his little sister, Wei Qian has such a huge heart, seeing Xiao Yuan living in the streets, he was ready to share with him what little he had & even eventually took him in. the fact he did whatever to survive, breaks my heart. *******************************************************************************Taiwanese BL's r on the same level as Japanese BL's - the plot is well thought-out, acted & produced. it's addicting & leaves u wanting for more when u reach the end. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw wondering who Tan Yu is to Wei Qian, is he really just the son of the landlord? cause him caring & helping so much for Wei Qia & his family, makes u wonder is there more between them. not that good people don't exist & yet curious if they just friends or more.

1st off am glad i was wrong about Ming & Frank & it was cleared up in this ep - still don't like her, but at least she not a predator... about the whole X & Mook planning to get Q is idk - doesn't sit well with me. & Q was justified in hitting X, like Toy was justified in getting angry at Mook & X for playing with Q. like i am sure Mook would've been, had she not known that X was planning to use her to start the whole bet going. ************************************************************************************ ****************************************************************************************************************************************personally i didn't like how intrusive the mother & uncle were, i get why they were - but as a person that is zealous about my privacy even good intentions don't justify all that nosing around. but as this the end - never mind. the mains got their happily ever after & it was cute. don't want or need a 2nd season. but this was fine for a one off

1st off, i didn't get Toy trying to convince Q to keep pursuing Mook, Toy is interested in her so why continue with the "plan" when Q isn't interested. didn't get that - especially when Toy got mad when Mook came to seek out Q.., he still doesn't realize his own feelings?!? pretty sure Mook wont like the fact that he has been lying to her from the start. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************& the whole relationship between Frank & Mind is annoying, let alone inappropriate IMO. i don't like Mind, she's older & her way of teaching Frank is by verbally & even psychically abusing him? the fact he is smitten & ready to accept any treatment as long as she isn't ignoring him, is toxic... IMO if i was Frank's mother i would be seeing red & would beat the crap out of her, for grooming my child! ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************regarding Q's mother, i get that she is worried & extra sensitive cause her brother is gay - so she know how hard life can be for a gay man in the world. she told her son, she is there to listen if he had anything to confide & she would love him no matter what. that was enough. but she keeps poking her nose in her son's business. *******************************************************as i have already pointed out Q hasn't done anything the indicated he was into X. maybe his wanting to rush over & check on him - either way u can't force someone out of the closet. he needs his own time to process whatever he is feeling & when he is ready, he will come to U.... ************************************************************************************************************her brother was right in telling her to stop over analyzing the situation, even before there was one. just to let her son be & everything would work out. but he was wrong in trying to force Q's hand. Q needs time & the space to work through what he is feeling on his own. yeah love is worth the headache, but he is too young & to him getting ostracized by his close friends & others his own age is worse then hell. when ur older u have the confidence & the knowledge to understand what is important & who's opinion counts. not so as a teen.

idk but it feels like this plot is progressing at the speed of light. not 100% sure, cause when u rely on translations somethings get lost... - like Q's mother already noticing & worrying about her sons sexual orientation. which idk why, as neither Q nor X have behaved in a way that was remotely flirty. not around her, that's for sure. so just cause X has eaten at her place twice now - so for her, it's her son brining his bf home? didn't get what i missed. ***************************************************************regarding Q himself, he didn't really seem all that interested in Mook to begin with, but his suddenly having a change of heart after X saved him or was it later... either way him dumping the wooing on Toy & Frank wasn't shocking. but his need to go check-up on X. again what i miss. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i don't like Mind, she just abrasive & rude for no reason, especially with Frank.

Frank into older women - freakin hilarious & he supposed to be the nerd in that group, boy's will be boy's i guess...lol & Toy (or rather the actor playing him, Prat) dude is 28 & have only ever seen him in roles of teenagers. not that he doesn't pass - still weird. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************so X is interested in Q & he keeps antagonizing him... guess given their age, this his way of wooing Q?!? but the "pulling the hair of the girl u like" strategy, can backfire especially when the bet is for Q to woo Mook & get her to invite him to go to the award ceremony - what if she falls for Q?!? or worse he falls for her. where that leave X???
