It's good ! The same writer with this drama Fate Chooses You, there's also subtle romance just enough for the fangirl to squeal 😆

Cmiiw, but from what I heard, Ren Jia Lun’s last two costume dramas (Love and Crown and Fate Chooses You) weren’t entirely his personal choices. They were projects arranged by his former agency as part of the agreement for him to leave. So it doesn’t feel fair to place all the responsibility on RJL.

After officially parting ways with the agency, his project choices seem to have shifted. Instead of romance-focused dramas, he’s taken on more serious roles — Silent Tides, which is based on the real historical struggles of the people of Macau, and Abbys, which appears to be a crime-themed drama and likely without a romance focus.

Looking at this, it seems pretty clear that his current direction isn’t centered on romance anymore.

The end of ep 19 and the start of ep 20 gave me ALL the feels. It hurt so good 😭

And those fighting scenes? Pure icing on the cake. Chef’s kiss.

After episodes of him just sitting back, observing, talking with his buddy while others flexed their combat skills, watching LQQ casually defeat everyone without breaking a sweat was insanely satisfying

It’s Ren Jia Lun. Romance is basically a rare event with his characters 😅

But that’s the fun part. Give me one subtle romantic moment and I’m done. Butterflies instantly 😆

Love and Crown wasn’t my favorite either 😅

Have you seen The Demon Hunter’s Romance? RJL was so good there, much more expressive

I might be wrong, but I think it’s the same writer as this one?

Foster kids? The one who became King and Su Tai Yi? Or did you refer to the two adorable kids from the street?

It’s not even our fault 😆 Ren Jia Lun’s charisma as He Xian is just way too hard to resist !

Oh yes, definitely! The lighting in that scene really adds to it 😆 His gaze, his side profile—everything is just perfect!

Oh no.. if it was true, I hope it won't cause He Xian any kind of heartbreak

I can’t be the only one rewatching this eye-acting scene 😆 He's so good !

I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a quality script and great acting

Currently watching episode 13, and honestly, it’s been really good so far! It did feel a bit slow at the beginning, but the character development and story buildup have paid off in a really satisfying way. Episode 9 especially hit hard with all those emotional scenes—seeing everyone who had misunderstood He Xian finally realize the truth and stand by his side was so rewarding. Episode 11 was just as satisfying, with He Xian’s team securing their victory and starting to really strengthen their bond as a team.

LOL 🤣
