I held out hope for 2-3 years and then gave up. I remember checking the page for season 02 for updates every now and then. *sigh*

Isn't this just a rumour?

😬

It has been done in some other dramas. Having said that, I'd love a season 2. NH and SXY were hilarious together in the historical world, they'd be more so in the modern world with SXY being in her element, happily chaotic, and NH still being the saner of the two. 😏

IKR?! Hugs! 🥰

That would have been way worse.

Fair enough. 😊

Yeah as I comfort my very single self. 😅

I thought about it again... How does one explain the lightning in the scene where she swears she doesn't like NF? The makers have left it so ambiguous. Apart from the fact that NH and SXY end up together, we know next to nothing.

Hugs! 🥰

I wish I possessed Fugui's attitude towards life, then I would have had a much easier time.

Ikr?! I did a double take when I saw him play the silly scriptwriter with both finesse and glee. I first saw him as Li Su Su's serene father in TTEOTM.

I get what you mean. I just assumed the effect had been done to drive home the fact that they both had indeed been in the dream together. I guess we would never know for certain. Either way I am glad that SXY has NH beside her.

I have mostly seen Wang You Shuo play saintly characters, which he does well btw. However, here he played CGH really well. CGH's transformation from a goody two shoes general to a demented man gone absolutely bonkers was a treat to watch.

I love TPOB to bits, but the fight choreography in that drama was a huge letdown. In this drama, the fight choreography was so beautiful, especially in the final few episodes.
So, one of my theories turned out to be true. NF had indeed transmigrated. I thought it was a curious detail that they show NF's eyes closed as he is getting his makeup done. At first his annoyance at SXY taking his sunglasses off threw me off. I think NF had previously assumed his very peculiar dream to be a figment of his imagination. However, upon seeing SXY's quite visceral reaction to his indifference made him realise that they had both lived as SYM and NH respectively. Also, both the historical and modern world portions were scripts. The female scriptwriter belongs to the actual real world and the script within a script is her original creation. I guess this was done to pass censorship.

My thoughts, spoilers galore.

This had seemed odd to me too but I have come across people in real life who wear sunglasses indoors and inside cars and are absolutely insufferable. So, I assumed they were playing into his insufferable attitude.

Preach! The west has absolutely destroyed the understanding of male friendships. Two men can be tactile with each other to express their bond/brotherhood without being gay and two men can be together romantically without PDA. SMH at the silly stereotypes.

You made me cackle! 🤣

I meant look at the endings of other dramas from China that have recently concluded. Many of them have very dissatisfactory endings. Hence, I feel that this plot point is a comment on how scriptwriters change the drama ending of novel adaptations to an open or a sad one one inspite of the story ending happily in the novel.
