Very good point! I'm still sad about what happened to Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo over The Untamed. Their BTS was some of the *best* of any cdrama I've ever watched. They were so fun to watch together and now, years later, they still can't be seen in public together. So ridiculous. In the context of LLTG though- I'm only referring to the Emperors ship over CSS and LBY. i think it's super adorable. I think Lusi and Wu Lei are just friendly professionals.

MAJOR BOOK SPOILER - since you asked-

CSS revenge, LBY finds out - big fight between them - LBY revenge against families of the girls who pushed CSS- LBY punished- they make up. There's a murder mystery type subplot where she helps in the investigation (and their relationship really starts to be more cohesive), then he goes to battle along with QiQi's dad. I think that's all of next week - excluding the finer details, of course.

in other words, he's like most of us in that he wants CSS and LBY to be in a happy relationship

its the act of wanting 2 fictional characters or celebrities to be in a romantic relationship.

Oh no, I meant, add a spoiler to your 1st comment, haha. I read the book, but thank you! :) I'm so excited for that episode. It's one of the points in the novel Ive been most excited to see play out (whump queen over here, lol).

LOL so true

When is LBY sick and injured? (aside from the shoulder injury and when he falls off the cliff). I don't remember that part

spoiler plz <3

Its an important pressure point that is supposedly meant to revitalize by increasing energy and reducing stress.

The 5th princess is the one who blurted that CSS was pushed into the water, but it was the 5th prince who ultimately tells him everything

@Peach you're right on both accounts. He doesn't know the truth

Also- I'm LOVING his soft boy voice & face when he speaks to her and how he so quickly shifts into ice man with everyone else. You can see how young he really is when he's with her. His face becomes so smooth.

I love these last 4 episodes. I've also been reading the book (I'm a few chapters ahead of where they're at in Ep 41 preview), and I love their adaptation. They've done very well, IMO, with this version, and it matches the pacing of the novel.

I love the Emperor in Ep 36 watching CSS and LBY's PDA. He's the ultimate shipper, it's too funny. I also loveeeee all the skinship and flirting we've been given these past 4 episodes. SO MUCH YUMMINESS. I like that, although he didn't know the true reason, LBY knew CSS well enough to know she wasn't being truthful when she said she was just homesick after he consoled her. I also love that he respected her enough not to push the issue further after she avoided answering the 2nd time. Excited for the next episodes and the backlash of her (yet again) keeping information from him.

we already saw one yesterday! :p

I loveeee that about him. He really is hyper aware of her personality, and I think that's so endearing (even as he's still trying to adapt to it)

100% disagree. The first quarter of the series was too slow. Now that the plot and all of the machinations of every piece are moving, it's even better.

gobbling up ALL THIS SUGARRRRR. yum yum yum.

Ep 33 last half..okay...BUTTERFLIES. Melting.

I'm in the first 10min of Ep 33, and I want to STRANGLE our well-meaning but utterly incompetent and completely useless Crown Prince. My GOODNESS, he makes Zi Sheng's life so complicated with his shortcomings. Like, are you serious, dude? Family or Friend DOES NOT always equal RIGHT.

When i read this chapter, my heart was in my throat. Felt so bad for LBY. What an important moment in their relationship and certainly a very serious turning point
