With her job and if you don’t expect to have interaction with clients she was perfectly fine in her attire. Understandably a bit ragged after the accident. It seemed for me that he finally found her and requested her specifically to present her proposal. Hence him declining the others and clearly waiting for her.

Yes to all of that.
And my interpretation was, that he was waiting for her to show up. That he requested her for the presentation.
The full circle effect with the glance over his shoulder? Chef’s kiss 😘

You review said everything I wouldn’t know how to put in words.
👏👏👏
Second every point made by you.

Nycfoody was on a roll. 🤣🤣🤣
(Pun intended)

I came to comment the same after my surprise that this was his first ML.
With his face card and the (so far, since it still airing) success of CC he should get more leading roles hopefully.

True.
The whole second couple arc could have been left out. Doesn't add to the story. Only consumes time of the drama and of us.

After finishing episode 24 I am still missing their interactions from the earlier episodes.
I know, she needs to find out for herself to build trust. But it’s difficult to watch patiently. And there is still so much story to tell and so little episodes left.

I was just about to comment the same.
It’s heartbreaking to watch how Quinlu brutalized her peaceful inner core and how much she hardened up under the pressure of her life with the old bastard. Can’t wait for her to get her spark back and enjoying life again with SJ.

I watched Hidden Love not so long ago.
While I liked the drama and her acting there, tbh, I think WYL is the better fit for the role of Tianyan. She brings the necessary level of sweet innocence to the acting table but also the range for the more rougher version of the character after the events of the last episodes, while keeping her underlying steely backbone (one could miss under her love for leasure in life).
ZLS can act cute too, but it’s a different kind. And in LLTG she was a force.

One of the posters with the release schedule shows a PC. So it seems the human realm will bring our leads into modern times. We will see how it’s played out.

Look up the discussion threads to this drama above. There is one for the novel, too.

The face of the villain when he saw the remnants of his cherished fish. 🤣🤣🤣

There was the explanation. Thank you. 😊
Obviously I overlooked that part even during rewatching the first episodes.

It seems I missed a part of her family backstory.
Why does she speak of Rufei as her stepbrother? It confuses me every time.

He throws on tantrum after another like a spoiled toddler. Can’t wait until she wipes the floor with him.

Probably teleported. LOL
That part didn’t make any sense. But at least they added some blood splatter to XJ’s face. How he got them - who knows.

The last episode was so serving.
Our girl being a badass on and off the battlefield.
And the talk afterwards with their long-time-no-see-greeting. The connection between their past friendship and today. 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

During that whole part I was like “uh, there is still a battle going on. Grab your sword and get busy.”
But on the other hand I gave her some leeway because she was still working through the fact, that 7 of her former deputies got murdered. Now the possibility of losing XJ - it makes her only human to lose it for a moment.

What is with all the negative comments about Legend of a Female General?
I enjoy it watching it and so are a lot of other people. The ranking doesn't come from nothing.
So - if you haven't watched it yet - give it a go for some episodes if the synopsis sounds promising to you.
Taste differs.

When did she encourage him?
As far as I have seen, he is the one who initiates opportunities where he can come onto her. 🙄
She was friends with him at the start. But as soon as he started kinda courting her, did she keep a subtle distance and her replies were polite but nonetheless rebuffs of all his advances on a regular basis. But the smitten guy ignores all her subtle hints.
Don’t forget that he has an influential position. She needs to be diplomatic , because (strategist that she is) he could be useful in the future (as she pointed out towards XJ - I think it was in on of the previews).
I am so done with him as lovesick puppy who waxes poetry and plays the flute. Take one of the hints, dude. She just isn’t into you. Stop pestering her.
