And I am here for it! 😂🥰

Ooh. Nice. You are in for a treat.

I like Emma more, the characters in the book seemed to have more spunk. 😂

Both almost immediately wished to kill the women who went on to become the one true love of their lives!

It just struck me that Wei Shao from TPOB and Nan Heng are similar to each other in one striking way!

OMG! You are lightening fast! The stars do align sometimes. 😂 Hi! Btw, you must watch ADWAD if you haven't already. 😍

P.S.: Like your username. Austen fan, I presume?

I dunno. Maybe.

IKR?! With them, it's ride or die together. Given how this drama was not exactly focused on their romance, it gave us such a beautiful couple. Also, I love the found family element in the drama.

I feel that she was unhappy and lonely in her life which is why she took to the script world as well as she did. Even though she kept claiming that she aspired to have an easy, slacker life; deep down I believe she felt terribly lonely and unfulfilled given how after she became an empress, she sought to better the lives of her people.

Exactly!

Preach! What I feel is that most viewers refused to acknowledge that SYM is allowed to retain her intellectual faculties as well as her self-preservation instincts while being in love with LSL/NH.

💗

I hear you, however, I will have to disagree. I guess my real life interactions with people are colouring my viewpoint.

Tbh, I felt the SYM had every right to make NH grovel considering how their interactions with each other started off.

LMAO! You could not have said it better. 🤣

In one of the episodes, SYT alludes to SYM saying stuff related to this. So, it's a callback.

Join the queue! CL plays his characters with so much heart! 🥰

Good one! Your response made wheeze with laughter. 😂

Exactly. The lightning is what makes me think NF is NH. Yet, NH seems to step out of a portal. I am a sucker for the found family trope as well.

I felt exactly the same way!

I was hoping for an entire episode too and I too knew they wouldn't! *sigh* The reason why they went with the script within a script approach is due to censorship. China has some very strict rules about time travel in dramas. Since I was apprehensive about a BE, I am glad with the conclusion of the drama. Tbh, this drama left me wanting for more which is ironic because before I started the show, I assumed it'd be full of fillers. I'd say this is one of the better paced dramas. I had a really good time. For me, watching dramas is cathartic (a way to vicariously live through the characters) which is why I identified so hard with SXY being desperate not to leave. In the modern world she was all by herself, an orphan with no family. Within the story, she had a loving family and a husband. ADWAD has indeed been a beautiful respite from real life chaos.
