BJT has a shoe obsession irl so it’s extra funny that they showed us how YZ always has to have a new pair of shoes every new year. That was such a cute interaction and cute how excited he looks.

Yes, I think so too. They need to keep up appearances to maintain YY's reputation and they're already being gossiped about that YZ favors his concubine more than his legal wife.

Based on the blushing emoji on the calendar, I think consummation night might happen around 37-38

Same here. I came not looking for much romance and it has already given me more than I expected. I also didn’t expect to be invested in every single character’s s/l.

😂 Noticed how Li Wei keeps unintentionally injuring him? 1 - when they first met and she ended up dragging him around the floor while trying to carry him to the physician 2 - accidentally threw a wine bottle on his head. And now this 😂

The way the window folded him over like a piece of crepe 😂

I first saw this done by Joe Wright in 2005’s Pride and Prejudice and it’s always left such an impression on me. Now I always instantly notice this technique whenever I see it again.

I appreciate that they’ve introduced domestic abuse and how women back then could handle these situations.

Also, this is a slow burn romance spanning 40 episodes. We need a little hesitations and back and forth before they get together or else it would just turn into a domestic couple’s life. At least it’s done logically. I for one, tend to get bored once lead couples get together.

In ep 21, that one shot no cut panning of Li Wei walking through the restaurant talking from person to person was so well done!

Ep 19-20 made me laugh and then made me cry and then made me laugh again. Did anyone notice Yin Zheng brought back snacks for Li Wei in the scene where he fell? 🥰

I'd say the angst lasted for about 15 minutes of episode 12, give or take

I think I will do the same. I can't imagine the hangover after the 40 eps are over.

Why does the opening song reminds me of Full House Kdrama lol

Eldest War General, 7th is Yan the Introvert, 9th Han Ladies' Bestie, 10th Yue Mama's Boy, 11th A Zai Child Prince 😁

8.2? It's easily an 8.5 at minimum.

I will miss my daily does of happy vitamin 🥲 Episode 20's preview made me think of the girls in A Dream of Splendor and their tea shop. I kind of ship SW and 10th prince if he stops being a mama's boy lol.

Lmao at the irony, “Stop touching, you don’t have any muscles”. Yin Zheng might not, but you haven’t seen BJT shirtless, Yin Qi 😂

All you need to do is stick an "introverts be like" phrase on top of their scenes and the memes are countless lol. That carriage ride scene with Yin Qi was so funny.
