One thing I wish is that GS would cook all by herself for once or at least help MQC cook. He tells her all those recipes and shows her what to do but doesn't let her try doing it herself. (And no, passing him the ingredients doesn't count.) She just watches and goes like "Oh okay." I don't think she's ever actually tried cooking his recipes either, she just likes listening to his voice.
Then... whenever GS does give/make him food, it's usually cooked by her mom, from her family's supermarket (aka just pre-made snacks), or prepped by MQC. It's not something that she made 100% all by herself.
I've only watched 23 episodes so maybe she actually does later. But right now I don't see it. It feels like the relationship is mostly MQC giving and GS taking, and that bothers me, even if both of them don't mind.
This is a review written by someone else that fully represent why I strongly dislike this drama!Story is too cheesy…
Just a disclaimer to everyone who missed it: Spatina said this isn't their review, they only agree with and are sharing it.
I have yet to finish the drama so can someone tell me, does it ever reveal specfically when MQC fell in love with GS (or when he first heard her voice)? How old were both of them?
GS being 22 and MQC being 29 is not that bad of an age gap. But if GS was like 18 and MQC was 25 when he fell in love with her... [woop woop thats the sound of the policeeee] At that point, it wouldn't even matter if MQC is or isn't a saint. He should date girls around his age.
I didn't even think about this until I saw your/Spatina's comment.
Makeup, clothes, hair, and filters can drastically alter a person's appearance. And yes... sadly all or most of…
Damn... "not dieting is a death sentence" is such a sad way to put it... 😭 I wish China could stop with its unrealistic and unhealthy beauty standards. Tan Jianci often wears shoes that enhance his height. He once said that the drama production teams would strategically try to make him look taller, like making him stand on a platform and the camera angles you mentioned.
Ps i have seen a variety show of the leads and I have to say they look slightly diffrent there. For example I…

Yang Zi is 167cm (about 5 ft 5-6 in) while Tan Jianci is 174cm (5 ft 8-9 in). He may be considered short compared to other actors, but his acting skills are unmatched. Literally the best. Exceptional. Outstanding. Unrivaled. Incomparable. Top-tier. Way, way better than many others who are taller but lack in the acting department.
It annoys me too. It feels like Mo Qing Cheng is singlehandedly carrying their relationship with all the conversations,…
@iseebutterflies Yes, it'd be nice if Gu Sheng took initiative more. Mo Qing Cheng is too good on the other hand. We all need someone like him in our lives haha. My opinion on this drama might be biased since I read the novel first so --> relative judgement. If I was like you and watched the drama without knowing anything, then I also probably wouldn't like it as much either.
She always annoys me with the thing when she answers 'mhm'. Like, girl your hearing is alright. I wish she has…
It annoys me too. It feels like Mo Qing Cheng is singlehandedly carrying their relationship with all the conversations, initiatives, and princess treatment lmao. But overall, drama Gu Sheng is a lot better than novel Gu Sheng. It's like- yes there are things in the drama that could be better, but at least it's way better than the novel. So that's what makes the drama bearable for me. @Droopy_Asleep also explained it well.
And... since you said this is the first Tan Jianci drama you've seen, I highly recommend you go watch "Lost You Forever." He slays even more there :-)
So I am hoping that they prolong the last scene and give us the full essence of the kiss as opposed to random…
I can't find it now but a while back, I saw a rumor on X/Twitter that the production team edited the kiss scenes to look less intense/passionate. I'm hoping it's not true but with China's strict censorship laws, who knows? 😭 If they don't, at least we have that one leaked clip :')
It was fluffy and cute in the beginning but now it's getting worse. I thought by now, they'll show us why ML likes…
Well... if you view the drama that way then I hope you never read the novel LOL. The drama does a way better job of making their relationship dynamic more equal but yes, it's still flawed. And ML fell in love with FL because he liked her voice. No other reason. Think of it as love at first sight except it's love at first hearing. Though I agree with your comment 100%. A third of me is enjoying this drama while the other two-thirds are criticizing it lmao. I'm trying to hold it in for Tan Jianci because it's his first ML romance drama.

Really Really Miss You = Love Me, Love My Voice
Eternally Yearning For You = Lost You Forever
Hm... there's an interesting pattern in his project titles

JM: Why are you out again?
MQC: I'm going to sleep
JM: Where are you going to sleep?
Then MQC casually walks into JM's room without saying anything
*Don't forget that scene of them sleeping together 🤣

Oh I just realized- what a coincidence! 39th place and 39 episodes haha
