It's a republican drama and like many other dramas, there's always misunderstandings between the characters. Some details/hints were given or said in the drama but some viewers missed it. Their father is Murong Feng and he also goes by the name Pei Lin, their mother Cheng Jin Zhi made that reference while speaking to Li Rong Zhang when he came over ( ties to the 2010 series). Also in earlier episodes, the mother kept yapping about how much she and her husband love each other. The older sister said that when her father was alive he wasn't close to her mother. The older sister grew up with releatives in the countryside while her parents were away fighting in war, that's why she has rough skin and kind of slow. Their mother is delusional, and she also worn her dead husband's dried up finger as to be close to him. I guess not many people knew this drama was a sequel.

Ep 6. The planes were additional but it's very important for the opening ceremony (Boosting their reputation and image). Ren Susu made it seem like it's for Qingyu but it really was to lure the Huo family to come out and have the Huo orphanage Nanny Sun to take the orphans to come do charity so they could kill Nanny Sun for revenge. (the huo lost a lot of money for the planes so brought their orphanage to do charity to earn money back into their pockets).

Ren Susu and Hai Tangqing and the rest of the orphan girls in their group were from the same batch, they faked their death and escaped. Now the girls came for revenge against the Huo family and the orphanage director Nanny sun who tortured them. Since their plan was ruined on the aviation opening ceremony and couldn't kill nanny sun. The girls held a meeting and reprimanded Tasia for planting a 💣 to the plane and ruined their plans. With that incident it triggers the Huo to be more provide more security to the old Huo. Thus leaves the orphanage with less guards and security. Others volunteer to do it, but Ren Susu said that she will go to the orphanage to kill Nanny Sun. After Qingyi help Ren Susu finish killing Nanny Sun, they both burried and cement her in the closed off area while the orphans were covering for them by singing to distract the security guards.

Ep. 22 Qingyi questioned Huo Minxian but she said nobody told her to do it, she did it because Ren Susu killed her father 3 years ago exposing Ren Susu's real identity. Nobody assume the zhang guy eventhough he shot Huo Mingxian because they are still in a state of shock with everything that happened. Then they assume that it was Ren Susu who planned it.

Ep 14. The initial plan was to confirmed that the abandoned tunnel lead to the Huo family bank. Do you remember in earlier eps at the soy milk stall where Ren Susu found Qingyi and give him a list? Some girls were recently missing from the orphanage. Many girls were held captive but didn't get brought to the Huo bank vault yet until the auction day. In order to find the exact location of where all the girls are kept at, Ren Susu had to use herself as bait. They can't just go in there and get caught as security is tight during the auction night. Ren Susu has to buy time and work with Qingyi to put on a show for those people (throwing cash, ren susu stabbing herself, and also the kiss) Ren Susu's team member whom wears the cap did enter thru the tunnels and came to free the rest of the girls then they all came to beat those people in the auction place.

Hai Tangqing was the one carrying Fang Mulan's ashes during the chase, Ren Susu lead the guards away and met up with Hai Tangqing later. Ren Susu didn't died and was saved.

Huo ZongQi's deserves to die anyway since the Huo family did many bad deeds. They don't care to investigate since Ren Susu and the girls already expose the Huo family. After the Huo family fell and Qingyi kill the old master huo on the ship, Qingyi took the Huo family assets.

Ren Susu is using Qingyi's words against him because she found out that the boy she saved back then was Qingyi. Back then she saved him as a kid, but in return he said "I didn't ask you to save me" and left. Thinking about the past, it tear her apart because she saved him, her family died. That's why Ren Susu said "I never ask you to love me" to Qingyi now.

Ep 15. The old master Huo took a liking to Ms. Ye since the the ceremony of the avaiation school. He intstructed his people to kidnapped her and he was about to molest her but then she put up a fight. He got angry and lost interest, had her sent to the auction place to sell instead. Since Qingyi and Qingyu was was involved at the auction place, the best solution was to have the Huo thought that it was because they accidentally kidnapped Fang Mulan (Qingyu's fiance) since she was wandering outside near the auction.

Li Bo Ze had his men search the place and presume that the other bullet must of came from Ren Susu because the person at the alter taking the vow with Qingyu is not Ren Susu but Ms. Ye. They huddle around Qingyu after he got shot.
I can only say that this drama had a lot of potential. The casting was actually good and very suitable in terms…
On ep 6 around the 28 min mark Qingyi and that guy were friends for a long time now. During medical school years ago, Qingyi happened to found him half dead on the street and saved him. Now he's become a big business man.
Sorry about the long post but what I wrote below covers the timeline in chronological events of Ren Susu's and Qingyi's childhood til their meetings from 3 years ago. Also some parts are shown from their own perspective thru the flashbacks but once you connect all the pieces together it made sense why there are misunderstanding between all of the characters. Each character is complex.
Ren Susu and Hai Tangqing were at the train station running away as the Huo guards were chasing them. Ren Susu told Hai Tangqing to take Mulan's ashes and run away while she lead the guards away.
Hai Tangqing gave a gun to Ren Susu to protect herself. Ren Susu was planning to sacrifice herself, she runs away leading the huo guards. Qingyi came to the train station to look for Ren Susu, and he happened to see her getting chased. Qingyi followed Ren Susu.
Ren Susu ran inside the train, the train was taking off. Ren Susu came to a dead end, with no way out, she open the door of the train and was about to jump out of the moving train.
Qingyi found Ren Susu and pull her back. Ren Susu told Qingyi to leave as she doesn't want him to get drag into her mess and get in trouble again. Qingyi was smiling happily telling Ren Susu that the gentian flower bloom, and that she promised to treat him to the view. 😭 Ren Susu got teary as she also loves Qingyi but the circumstances isn't right for them.
Ren Susu couldn't get Qingyi to leave so she deliberately said those words to provoke him into leaving and point a gun at him. Lying that she approach him to use him and saying that why would he think that she loves him. Qingyi called Ren Susu a liar because he knows that she caught feelings for him. Ren Susu told Qingyi to leave, and Qingyi hold onto the gun pointing at his chest told Ren Susu to shoot him.
Ren Susu saw the Huo guards at the corner of her eyes, she turn the gun point at herself. She wanted to the huo guards to see that Qingyi is not her accomplice. Ren Susu wanted to clear Qingyi's name so that they would let him go. Ren Susu told Qingyi to forget about her then she pulled the trigger and shot herself. She fell off the train and onto the snowy forest. The Huo guards got there and restrain Qingyi.
Ren Susu was wounded and lost conscious for some time but didn't died. She regain her conscious and crawled in the snow to grabbed onto the gentian flower that fell down on the snow.
The Huo guards brought Qingyi back and interrogated him again but they wouldn't believe him. The Huo family is still mad and wouldn't let Qingyi off. The Huo family wanted to kill Qingyi. Qingyu used all his connections and negotiate to have Qingyi locked up for 3 years intsead.
Qingyi was disappointed that his older brother didn't believe him, and decide to send him away in jail for 3 years. What Qingyi didn't know was that Qingyu already used up all his connection just to keep Qingyi alive.
Ren Susu didn't fake her death, she actually shot herself and was just lucky to have survive. After many months of recovering, Ren Susu got in contact with Fang Mulan's father and she traveled to Nanyang to bring Mulan's ashes to him. Ren Susu promises to bring down the Huo family and seek justice for Mulan and every victim. Mr. Fang approves and thank Ren Susu, he will be her supporter. Ren Susu stayed in Nanyang and help the Fang family business flourish in part of their plan to take revenge on the Huo family.
Ren Susu doesn't know what happened to Qingyi afterward. She shot herself to clear his name but she didn't know that they still wouldn't let him off.
Qingyi was tortured/beaten in jail for 3 years and gotten the nerves in his right hand severed. Qingyi didn't tell Qingyu what they did to him because he still holds a grudge on Qingyu for not believing him and sending him to jail for 3 years.
Qingyi found Ren Susu interesting and likable, same for Ren Susu. They became penpals and look forward to each other's letter.
Hai Tangqing found some clues about Fang Mulan, and came to tell Ren Susu that Mulan is kept inside the Huo mansion in Beicheng. Ren Susu was able to save enough money and travel to Beicheng.
During the time that Ren Susu didn't write back to Qingyi, Ren Susu was already in Beicheng sneaking into the Huo mansion to rescue Fang Mulan. Each attempt failed as the place was heavily guarded, Ren Susu got injured multiple times and almost got caught but Hai Tangqing came to save her.
Even though they failed each time, but they had a better knowledge of the layout of the Huo mansion.
On that night, Ren Susu was sneaking around the Huo mansion and climbed on the wall, attempted to rescue Mulan but she accidentally encounter Qingyi there. She fell down the wall and he helped her up, she confirms that she is Ren Susu, Qingyi was happy and carry off Ren Susu.
While she is recovering, she stayed with Qingyi for 2 months and they created many memories. Ren Susu was about to leave and continue her mission since she has recovered but he ask her to love him. Ren Susu stayed with Qingyi for 1 more month. Then later on Qingyi told her that he is going to the huo party in his older brother's place and ask Ren Susu to come along. Ren Susu never meant to harm or use him in the first place but this is the only chance to save Mulan.
At the Huo party, after Ren Susu send Qingyi away she sets off to find Fang Mulan. Ren Susu found Mulan in the building behind the garden. Ren Susu broke down in tears seeing Mulan covered in bruises and in a disheveled and mental state. Ren Susu apologize for coming too late.
Ren Susu was about to take Mulan away but Huo Mingxi showed up. Ren Susu confronted him and slap him. Hou Mingxi got angry and tried to choke Ren Susu while trying to sexually assult her too. In a moment of despair, Ren Susu stabbed him multiple times and he died on the spot.
Ren Susu took Mulan and run to hide from the huo guards. Amongst the chaos, Qingyi accidently stumble upon Huo Mingxi's dead body on the floor. They tied Qingyi up and sent people to catch Ren Susu. They believe that Qingyi and Ren Susu work together to kill Huo Mingxi.
Fang Mulan was bleeding heavily from a recent miscarriage, her dying wish was to have her ashes returened to Nanyang and to give it to her father. Ren Susu and Hai Tangqing were crying and promised Fang Mulan that they will bring her ashes to find her father no matter what.
Murong Qingyi and Ren Susu have such a tragic trauma childhood. Fate is so cruel to them.
They are fated to meet eachother but not be together. 😭
(Years ago) Ren Susu unknowingly saved Qingyi when they were kids.
(3 years ago) Years later in their adulthood they unknowingly/mistakenly got to know each other through penpal letters. Then accidently bumped into each other at the Huo's family mansion gate. They caught feelings for each other but were separated due to circumstances.
(Present/ 3 years later) Ren Susu is alive and came back to take revenge on the Huo Family. Murong Qingyi still loves Ren Susu vice versa. Things happened and they made love. More things happened and they had misunderstandings, they were separated again.
( 7 years later) Qingyi came back and saw Ren Susu, she had a son. Qingyi is mad and pissed, but he is certain that's his child so he forcibly moved in with her in the pretense of military businesses. They are still stubborn and won't give into each other. After a while Ren Susu gave into Qingyi. Many things happened and this time Ren Susu have to wait for Qingyi for a long time. 😭
10 years that they missed out on each other and years later.
This story is sad but they also have humour and sweet moments too. It made me laugh and also cry, every episode got me hooked and looked foward to the next. I understand the characters point of view and reasons. Everyone did an excellent job protraying their character.
Ren Susu live with her parents at the wharf. Her father works for the water transportation that carries military supplies etc. Her mother occasionally took on odd jobs to help earn income. Eventhough her family is not rich but they but are still very happy and content with their life.
When ever her father leave for a long voyage, he would always bring her snacks and buy her other things when he return. Ren Susu's dream was to the best captain on the ship and travel around the world. She wanted to work on water transportation like her father. Her parents support her dreams and encourages her to go for it. They promised that when the day comes, they will be the first ones on her ship, traveling together.
On one day, the young Ren Susu stumble upon the Young Qingyi whom was drugged and left to drown. Ren Susu calls for help and her family cared for Qingyi. They didn't know anything about Qingyi but judging by the circumstances such as drugging a young child, Qingyi came from a wealthy family and whomecer wanted him dead must be powerful. Ren Susu insisted that since she found Qingyi she would take care of him.
Her father doesn't want them to get drag into any trouble so he suggest that they send Qingyi away. Qingyi accidently overheard them and doesn't want to bring disasters to their family (he was used to it, being the blacksheep of the family that no one wants, but young Ren Susu show him compassion wanted to take care of him 😭)
Qingyi got up to leave but Ren Susu saw him and told him to not go as he is still weak. Qingyi ran away and Ren Susu chased after him, there he told Ren Susu to stop chasing him but Ren Susu still insisted that she is responsible for his well being since she was the one who found him. Qingyi told Ren Susu "I never ask you to save me" and left. (Poor Ren Susu all she wanted to do was take care Qingyi for a couple more days until he recover then he can leave)
The bad people whom are after Qingyi has been spying on Qingyi while he was under Ren Susu's family's care. They set the buildings on fire.
Ren Susu came back and saw her parents trapped in the building, the fire is raging. Ren Susu was crying and wants to save her parents. The fire was too fierce, her parents died in that fire. Ren Susu lost her parents and everything in that fire.
Ren Susu was sent to the Huo devil orphanage where they lock her up, starve her, and torture her. Ren Susu met Fang Mulan and Hai Tangqing over there at the orphanage. When Ren Susu got there, the only person who sacrifice herself to help Ren Susu was Fang Mulan, and she snuck food for Ren Susu. Fang Mulan taught both Ren Susu and Hai Tangqing how to stay alive and protected them from the nasty pedophile man, that targets the young girls from the orphanage.
The orphanage starved, abused, disfigured, dismembered, sex traficked, exploited, sell, and kill the some orphans for organ harvesting. Everyday was hell and they build bonds while helping each other stay alive. Just like that Ren Susu grew up in the hell place.
The trio became bestie: Ren Susu, Fang Mulan, and Hai Tangqing. ❤️
😭 The once happy go lucky and innocent Ren Susu is gone, she lost herself when she lost her parents. The devil orphanage tear her down and turned her into broken person.
The orphanage is own and operated under the Huo family.
Years past and they are teenagers 17-19. The orphanage host and forced the pretty girls to dance for the wealthy elite to earn money for the Huo. Pervert Huo Mingx took a liking to Ren Susu, he requested to have Ren Susu sent to him days later. Ren Susu came down with a really high fever and was unconscious. All the girls at the orphanage have built a sisterhood, they gathered around and took care of Ren Susu.
The evil Nanny Sun whom is in charge of the orphanage came to take Ren Susu away but all the girls were begging Nanny Sun to not, because Ren Susu was super sick and still unconscious.
Nanny Sun had the guards grab Ren Susu and took her out, all the girls were crying and begging Nanny Sun to not send Ren Susu. Fang Mulan sacrificed herself and will go to dance in Ren Susu's place.
After Ren Susu's fever cool down, she regain conscious and found out that her best friend Fang Mulan volunteer to go in her place as a stand in.
Fang Mulan never came back to the orphanage, she was taken by Huo Mingxi and become his play thing at the Huo mansion.
All the girls at the orphanage planned their escape and left the orphanage. Ren Susu and Hai Tangqing has been trying to look for Fang Mulan's whereabout but they couldn't find any lead.
Later on Ren Susu and their sisterhood team found clues that Fang Mulan might be in Beicheng so Ren Susu starts to write letters to random houses with a secret message in her cursings, in hope that it will reach Fang Mulan. After writing so many letters to many houses, there's still no repsonse.
Ren Susu became a painter at the dock to earn money and also to ask people who came from Beicheng if they've seen Fang Mulan (Ren Susu show them a portrait sketch of Fang Mulan). No one saw Fang Mulan. Ren Susu refuse to give up and write more letters to random houses in Beicheng and continue to ask passerby at the dock.
Then one day, Ren Susu received a letter from the random houses that she wrote to, it was Qingyi who decode the hidden message and wrote back to tell Ren Susu that the person she's looking for is not there, and to call the police if the person is in trouble or perhaps the person is already dead.
Ren Susu was crying and wrote back to Qingyi that he's a jerk and for him to take back his words, as she still believes that Fang Mulan is still alive. Qingyi was taken back and wrote back to Ren Susu saying that he is sorry for being an insensitive jerk for projecting his own view onto her, as he believes everyone is born to walk alone. He is also curious why she wrote such mean words in the letter to find her freind.
Ren Susu wrote back to Qingyi that she accepted his apology. She also explains that she and her friend Mulan shared a speacial bond, cursing is their way of greeting each other. They have a secret message hidden in the writing. After writing so many letters to random houses, Qingyi is the first person to decode hidden message and wrote back to Ren Susu.
Qingyi found Ren Susu interesting and likable, same for Ren Susu. They became penpals and look forward to each other's letter.
can someone tell me is the bad rating because of plot ridiculousness or because it was/wasn't realism heavy or…
When this drama airs it was hit with blackdraft, also there are some people who didn't watched the drama but down rate it too ( when most of the episodes haven't air yet but they already down rate the episodes). Some complain about the Ai intro, then the production team change the intro ( the ai intro wasn't as bad as people say, it looks way better than some other dramas that also have ai intro too). Idk about others but I never really care about the intro in dramas as I usually skip it and dove right into the story. Some complain about the close shot but there are many dramas that use close shots to capture the character's emotions. This drama is good, each episode is very engaging and have many plot twist. There are 3 main couple and there's no love triangle. Every character has their own reasons and battles, watching each episodes will give you a glimpse of their backstory.

Later on Ren Susu and their sisterhood team found clues that Fang Mulan might be in Beicheng so Ren Susu starts to write letters to random houses with a secret message in her cursings, in hope that it will reach Fang Mulan. After writing so many letters to many houses, there's still no repsonse.
Ren Susu became a painter at the dock to earn money and also to ask people who came from Beicheng if they've seen Fang Mulan (Ren Susu show them a portrait sketch of Fang Mulan). No one saw Fang Mulan. Ren Susu refuse to give up and write more letters to random houses in Beicheng and continue to ask passerby at the dock.
Then one day, Ren Susu received a letter from the random houses that she wrote to, it was Qingyi who decode the hidden message and wrote back to tell Ren Susu that the person she's looking for is not there, and to call the police if the person is in trouble or perhaps the person is already dead.
Ren Susu was crying and wrote back to Qingyi that he's a jerk and for him to take back his words, as she still believes that Fang Mulan is still alive. Qingyi was taken back and wrote back to Ren Susu saying that he is sorry for being an insensitive jerk for projecting his own view onto her, as he believes everyone is born to walk alone. He is also curious why she wrote such mean words in the letter to find her freind.
Ren Susu wrote back to Qingyi that she accepted his apology. She also explains that she and her friend Mulan shared a speacial bond, cursing is their way of greeting each other. They have a secret message hidden in the writing. After writing so many letters to random houses, Qingyi is the first person to decode hidden message and wrote back to Ren Susu.
Qingyi found Ren Susu interesting and likable, same for Ren Susu. They became penpals and look forward to each other's letter.
Some complain about the Ai intro, then the production team change the intro ( the ai intro wasn't as bad as people say, it looks way better than some other dramas that also have ai intro too). Idk about others but I never really care about the intro in dramas as I usually skip it and dove right into the story.
Some complain about the close shot but there are many dramas that use close shots to capture the character's emotions. This drama is good, each episode is very engaging and have many plot twist. There are 3 main couple and there's no love triangle. Every character has their own reasons and battles, watching each episodes will give you a glimpse of their backstory.
