I have loved this series so much despite me not really being into modern dramas (I'm more of a costume drama fan)..

As a frustrated architect (you know, never got the chance to pursue this course back then), I love how it shows me things I could've also done if I just had been an architect.. I know it's kinda funny to comment on that when everyone else here is gushing over the romance between the leads but here I am appreciating truly the work they all are doing.. Hu Xiu inspires me in a sense that I too want to become an architect someday. When I already have the time for it.

Anyway, as a woman, I'm most impressed of The BFF.. She is someone I admire so much. She's a woman who gets hurt but she knows when to walk away. She doesn't give second chances because she believes and protects her peace.. I wish more women would think like that too.. Most importantly, I was touched when she said she didn't want to ruin the memories they've had (with her husband) in the past.. She's someone who still appreciates the time she had spent with people and always cherished it. She has a big heart and I really am rooting for her in this..

more than anything, I feel sorry for the father in here. After loosing his wife whom he had to take care of for years, he is facing another challenge yet again with the next woman he loved. I don't think he even deserves to have such fate.

wait, DAI XU (Pei Zhen) is actually AO HEN in the Unclouded soul series?????? 😂😂😭😭😭 he looked different in there!!!

I didn't even realize that this show was only 28 episodes. and we're already 16 episodes in. they need to drop whatever conflict there is in 2 episodes so I could get more dating era for the leads. ughhhhhh. 😭😭😭

this is only 28 episodes??? but feels like the story needs more EP..

the level of petty I can get is the same as Hu Xiu. I could be jobless and and broke but if I'm pissed off at something or at someone, I'll do anything for revenge. 😂😂😂😂

I'm only on EP 1 but it spoke so much about me right now (minus the sick mother and mom-daughter fight because me and my mom started becoming close when I turned 25)..

now at 31, I'm at a point in life where it feels lonely. I'm incredibly similar with the female lead here. I have a really good career... I have lovely best friends (2 of them) but I don't really know if I want a partner or I just want the idea of not being alone or lonely.. I don't want to date because it's too much work for someone my age, I don't want to have kids because I grew up taking a parent role because of poverty (and I don't blame my parents for it because it was their first time being parents too)..

I cried.. I just didn't know something would somehow mirror me In this feeling..

and in that last minutes in EP1, my heart broke so much because if I was in the FL's place, I don't know if I would ever forgive myself for not being there for my mom...

man, I'm only in EP4 but why is Cheng Lei being stripped or literally topless every episode? 😂😂😂😂😂 not that I'm complaining but I love the skin exposure for sure.

really caught me off guard. lol.. in other series we have men being the one who gets to choose wives but we have here women, where men will fight with others just to win the "husband" title of a noble woman. 😂😂 THIS IS SOOOOOO NICE.

anyway, because it's currently EP4, I don't think Steward Cheng lost his purpose just yet because they don't necessarily show yet how important LFS is to RSB. However, I'm intrigued he sabotaged the dinner date by basically, not informing Mr. Bai of the dinner when he could've done something to intercept that dinner invitation as well by the other sister..

okay, I just started this and I'm in EP4.
Can someone maybe spoil me..

1. What's the role of this steward Cheng In the family and why does he seem like he's sabotaging some things (for example, when RSB invited Mr. Bai for dinner as he was kind of the winner of that gift giving thing).

2. is he some guy in love with RSB? or maybe one of the Rong sisters?

I'm totally surprised this is a drama because it's a matriarch society it seems.

Right. he became the exact thing he despised and he was just able to walk away from all of it. It's like "I couldn't care less as long as my sister is fine but I'm sad that PP is gone and that my sister now lives in her body"

Like WTF bro.

As for the ending, I'm taking it as XY staying in a time loop. She'll probably go back every single time to relive the moments she had with HY

For all it's worth, I'd tell people to still watch this series and end everything at EP32. I still personally believe the journey is worth more than the actual destination (which is the ending) but yeah, BZ's character is pissing me off big time. ahhahahahahha

Oh trust me, It probably is.. But I wanted to see how it ended so I jumped off straight from 38-40 to know how it ends... And now all I can feel is being pissed off of Bing zhu. hahahaha

Okay, sure we got that ending even when they could've not chosen to because again, what was even all the point of everything if that's how it ends? Anyway, I'm no longer commenting in that aspect but this rant is more for Bing Zhu and maybe Tan'er and Pian Pian.

Tan'er should've just vanished alongside Pian Pian. I'm kinda mad because I held onto so much hope for Bing zhu since the beginning. I always thought it was stupid to blame the demons for his and Tan'er's misfortune because it was human's greed that drove them in that situation but hey, I told myself he's probably a really good character with the best character progression.. Oh man. I was so wrong.. Maybe this series is telling me I couldn't really change a guy...

But apart from me being a bad judge of his character, I hate how it seemed like there were no consequences at all. He and Tan'er are both just free to walk away even with everything that happened? If I was him, I would've atone because I was the reason for some of these UNJUSTIFIED deaths.

Don't even get me started how weird it is that his sister now is in the body of the woman he had an interest in. How do you even go on everyday to look at the face of the woman you like but the soul belongs to your sister? Damn it.

This series is so good in killing characters without actually killing them (Xiao Ming and Xiao Mu but you still get to see the person who plays both characters... Killing Pian Pian but you still see her because it's Tan'er now. LOL)

I am just so mad because Bing zhu was supposed to be a really a character I had so much expectations.

I watched this for Neo. Tuned in continously still for Neo (and Wang Duo who plays Bing zhu) but I am just really appalled right now. hahaaha

Okay, because I decided this is more important than studying, I decided to skip 33-37 and decided to go for Eps 38-40. And I guess I needed to really get this off of my chest.

for a character I rooted for in this show, Bingzhu surely did disappoint me just by looking at the spoilers. 😬😬😬 I wanted him to be happy even if early on, there were already signs of him being extra loyal to the emperor.

Yeah, the kind of ending where HY dies and XY time travels, kinda understood that the ending is really with HY being dead already because time travelling would only mean that she wants to relive the time when HY was alive. that's perfectly fine..

however, so Bingzhu died.. but then, I'm curious if Tan'er gained Pian Pian's body and with the same face or if there was an instance of change like she got to change her face back to who she was before (just that it's pian Pian's body) ???

let me get this straight,

bing zhu, kills the 3 ancient demons (who were actually supposed to be more powerful than Hong Ye) and absorbs their power so now, it meant Bing Zhu became a demon?

and after that, when he had enough and maybe a short realisation, Pian Pian helped him end his misery by killing him? am I understanding this correctly?

then pian pian was taken over by Tan'er soul so Tan'er gets to live in Pian Pian's body?

also, I'd love to know what U meant with the twist. spoilers totally fine.

so this kinda feels like Zhu Yan Zhou then.. Neo's character in Fangs of Fortune. a character that feels like was made to bear consequences..

Okay, I like some spoilers. I will watch the remaining episodes (from ep 33) some time next week but I do want to know certain things now.

So I have heard certain spoilers that the 3 ancient demons... Well.. will not mention that now but:

1. Who else died?
2. In the end, is Hong Ye still the demon king?
3. What happened to Pian pian, Tan'er and Bing Zhu? I kinda want to know if Bingzhu had a tragic "supposed" love story..
4. What happened to Hei wu? The minor demons like Wuhan and Xiao Ming&Mu?

If anyone would be kind to spoil, I'd appreciate it. Thanks a lot!
