Reading the novel, XZ is even more unhinged. The way he says the most serious of things in unserious manner always gets me. I can already picture this scene 🤣.

Xíng Zhǐ turned to her and nodded his head. Then he said, "That is the way she is. It may be bad, but she might squeeze your neck the next time you provoke her." There was a chilly undertone to his voice. "Who knows, you may not even have an intact corpse."
Yōu Lán felt a sudden chill on her neck. She looked at Xíng Zhǐ weakly. "If that happens, will High God oversee justice for me?"
Xíng Zhǐ gave Yōu Lán a kind smile as he spoke but his voice was firm. "That is unlikely. The Demon emperor is very fond of the Azure Sky king and will likely defend her. It is also unlikely the Heavenly realm will go to war, after all, maintaining a peaceful relationship between the two realms is very important, however, Goddess Luò Tiān may rest in peace; I will be sure to place some fruit as tribute for you."
Did not have expectations when starting this drama, mainly because having expectations can hinder the enjoyment of a drama. I am pleasantly surprised that I did not skip through episodes, which is the case for majority of the dramas that I watched. So far, the storyline and chemistry between the leads are good. Let’s see where this takes us, hopefully not sad endings - have had enough of those in 2023.
In my opinion, it has the same plot as a mini drama (8-10mins), I guess you can cast this as a mini drama too as it doesn’t have full ep length. With that being said, I don’t have much expectation. It’s most definitely not revolutionary drama, there are a lot of typical troupe that you would find in any typical drama.
Some SPOILERS (these are summarised important bits): - he is a CEO and she is a girl with a dream (fashion/crafting etc.) - Huge misunderstanding between the leads (she thinks he destroyed her family’s business and she nearly dies but he wasn’t there to help) - she falls into the sea, gets saved but ML doesn’t know and searching for her for like 5 years even though everyone else thinks she’s dead - she disappears for a period of time with the help of few ppl, comes back with a higher status and seeks revenge - she also had a kid with him (so she kinda left him with the kid and disappeared so she’s not winning mum of the year anytime soon). - she comes back with new identity (name) and is a renowned independent fashion designer. - the ML sees her and thinks it’s his wife and investigates her by testing her and doing a dna test with their kid.
IKR. Like I get trying to protect her from the trauma but it’s just gonna make things so much worse. Cuz not…
don’t worry, the long comment is fine. I think it’s also the fact that JY was reading those emails which HYZ thought were private between her and YF so she could’ve been sayin stuff about JY that she doesn’t want him to know. And also the fact that he hasn’t reached out to her physically despite knowing the things she’s going through in 12 years. it’s a messy situation.
OMG!!! Ep 25!!!Why continue with the lie?HYZ knows that is not the promise?! Poor HYZ!! She is going to be so…
IKR. Like I get trying to protect her from the trauma but it’s just gonna make things so much worse. Cuz not only she gonna find out and remember that her friend is dead but her other friends have all lied to her instead of helping her to get through the trauma.
Hi can anyone suggest some good ancient dramas to watch please? I am running out of choices.
My personal faves: - Love and Redemption, - Ashes of Love, - Who Rules the world, - Love like the Galaxy, - Story of Kunning Palace, - Till the end of the moon (watch with caution- if you cry a lot then well maybe not watch it), - The longest promise (same warning as the last suggestion), - Immortal Samsara, - Ancient Love Poetry (the prequel to this- my comfort drama), - Back from the Brink, - Lost you forever (waiting for S2, but really good)
I am watching it on Kisskh cuz YOUKU app that I have don’t have the drama. And Yh, there’s no translation, it’s machine translation. It’s a shame really cuz the VOD quality is HD and the shows good.
2023 was filled with HORRIBLE endings. Now that this drama has made it to 2024, please be KIND to us with a very…
Though I love Xiao Zhan, the Longest Promise probably is worse than TTEOM in terms of Angst and ending. Though I still go back and watch it from time to time. I liked The Last Immortal ending as it was similar to ALP. I’m not complaining cuz TTEOM gave us Jin in a shell, don’t know if he’s alive or dead. The Longest Promise made the ML become a flower or part of his spirit is a flower (it’s hella confusing, even more than TTEOM).
You miss so many good thing if u just watch Cdrama for Lusi only.
Zhao Lusi is my fave but I have soft spot for others like Bai Lu, Xu Kai etc. But ultimately, I watch any cdrama tbh regardless of the actor unless I feel like I’m not connecting with that drama or actor.
I feel like everyone said all the ones apart from WHO RULES THE WORLD, which is my personal fave. STORY OF KUNNING PALACE is also really good. And WONDERLAND OF LOVE too. Basically if you just tap on Zhao Lusi’s or Bai Lu’s profile, you can find loads of good dramas.

Yh, the Longest Promise really did us dirty, the ML died twice. The way he died first then being brought to life only for him to die again like nothing beats that foolish scriptwriting. Same with Starry love, they become flowers or BFTB, just a few seconds of reunion. Don’t get me started on TTEOM, self explanatory (still haunts me till this day). And then LYX other drama LIP, the man couldn’t catch a break.
