After what Ye Xian did to her in ep 8 or 9 I don't want to see him around her anymore!! He's got anger issues…
fr. I'm happy about him getting character development and falling for someone else, but I can't believe people are still shipping him with FL after he literally whipped her out of anger. I get that some are attached to the book version (who never hit her) but this is a different story now
● as a Gu Lan defender, I couldn't be happier about her scenes today (^▽^) enemies to sisters is a niche trope that I didn't know I loved so much
● Ye Xian/Xue Qing Lan ship is sailing I'M SOOOO EXCITEDD THEY HAD 2 SECONDS OF SCREENTIME AND THEY ATE THAT SHIT UPPP
● ^^ to follow up on that, I love LOVE when dramas introduce a second romance for a 2ML instead of making him hopelessly pine for the FL, it makes the whole show more exciting to watch and adds momentum
● *sigh* offering someone a way out/away from you because you love them enough to guarantee their freedom *dabs tears with handkerchief* the romance of it all
● Qing Pu/Jinzhao's maid is so freaking cute I absolutely adore her
Could you please stop showing Americans in every drama? I'm tired of them appearing everywhere. This is an Asian…
as someone (non-american) who has primarily watched american media throughout all my life and only got into kdramas/cdramas early this year, now I get so annoyed seeing a white person on my screen 🤣🤣 like get OUT of here
● I was hesitating to start this bc I have one sided beef with the actress lmao (I could go on for paragraphs about this but I doubt anyone wants my negativity so I'll spare you) but I'm short on things to watch so I started it and it's genuinely hilarious; the scene of them fighting with plants had me silently shaking at 3 am
● I didn't watch any trailers or anything so I had no idea what the premise of the show was, and from the first scene I thought they were gonna do a body swap and already prepared myself to be annoyed but I'm soooo glad it wasn't the case
● I think this is my first time seeing the actor playing the ML and this man is fIINNNEEEE
● I really liked the scene of her being baffled at the girl dreaming of being a housewife. motherhood is totally a valid dream but considering the constant subjugation of women that we see in tv shows (especially romance) it's nice to see that reaction
● overall it was really entertaining, the only scenes that I found boring were the ones with his family, but ig they're just setting things up for something more interesting (hopefully)
Do you have any favorite genres besides the Fantasy? It makes a huge differense if it is a mix of your most liked…
for other genres, I mainly enjoy historical romance (I lean more towards the action side like legend of the female general and pursuit of jade.. but I still like some of the political intrigue/laid back ones like story of kunning palace and currently a splendid match)
I'm totally considering LBFAD I heard really nice things about it thank you sm for the recommendation!!
Please tell me I'm not the only one who has an issue with the OSTs/score? It's too modern in places and too western…
lmao I kinda like the bridgerton-y moments but it's the modern score that I found startling, like when he asked her to marry him, the moment he held her hand, a random song got turned up and it was loud and modern and sooo out of place
I guess the writers are set on making Gu Lan a victim instead of a villain
I'd rather victim tbh. I'm sick of the jealous female villain trope, I think we're starting to grow out of that as a collective... male characters get redemption arcs after doing much worse things, but female characters always end up being thrown down the villain pipeline out of jealousy of the FL
Is it just me but it was shortsighted for FL’s Mom to make that maid work for the other maid she chose to be…
I don't entirely agree with the reply saying that she's just a trusting person
I think the decision to make that maid serve the other was genuinely stupid. you don't have to be scheming or manipulative to know it's the wrong decision. It's actually quite inconsiderate and unkind (but I don't think she was an unkind person, just inconsiderate and a bit slow)
I actually do hope that Ye Xian ends up with Xue Qinglan. In the book he does get married (not XQ , some other…
yeah I do think the writers are setting something up between them. It's giving enemies to lovers and I like it. I hear that a lot of people loved Ye Xian in the books so maybe the screenwriters wanted to take advantage of that and decided to give him his own romantic arc since he's obviously not gonna end up with Jinzhao

it's a kdrama and it's very much a slow burn and the themes are much darker than this one
it's extremely well written too (it also happens to be my personal favorite but im not biased at allll *laughs nervously*)
