In Ep 26 preview, what do you think XW wanted to discuss with JXN in private (since she thinks he lured her to his place for something else other than just the letter about Yan family)?

In Ep 24, I bet XW was smirking in satisfaction secretly bc his dearest JXN had decided to spend private time with him in the carriage instead of with ZZ for their journey back to the capital!! 🤭🤭😜

Me tooooo. I love the pace and the plot development. Can't wait to see how the rest of the drama unfolds!! Yay for XW/JXN love story to start soon!!

Haha I started laughing when I saw the bright backlight during ZZ/JXN scene. You're right, it did pull me out of the scene for a moment lol!

I wish I could go ahead and watch Ep 25 🤣🤣 It was only the previews that I watched for Ep 25 and 26. Both are on iQiyi.

Oh I like that!! Would make a lot of sense.

In Ep 25 preview, does anyone know what JXN means by asking XW "why?" right before he hugs her?

Me tooooo. I also love how smart and resourceful he is. All the traits of my fav type of ML hehehe!

That's exactly how I feel!! I was so devastated when I found out about my fav character XL's ending in LYF (I had watched drama first without reading novel). SOKP def has been healing my broken heart since I know XW gets the girl (YAY!).

Thank you!! 🥰

Hi, what platform is everyone using to watch this drama? I want to start but don't know where to watch it.

Oh? Where did you see this?!

I don't know if y'all noticed, but around 32:24 in Ep 20 when the Duke of Xue first enters the prison and sees all the Xingyu Guards fighting the rebels, there is this one Xingyu Guard that picks up a rebel onto his shoulder and then twirls around gracefully in a circle with him before throwing him off. I burst out laughing at that scene bc it looked like a romantic dance move in a ballet or something! 🤣🤣🤣

I thought it was strange too, given that they're royalty. But I haven't read the novel so I'm not sure what their personalities are supposed to be like, and whether they become stronger in the future.

That's fine if you feel that way. I'm curious, which actresses have successfully avoided or moved on from those stereotypes?

After breaking up the fight at the Coming of Age Ceremony, Xie Wei says "Please have a seat, everyone." I burst out laughing bc the tables and chairs are broken due to the fight, so where exactly should all the guests sit??? 🤣🤣🤣

I understand that baby/cutesy female leads can be annoying. I think actresses such as Zhao Lusi and Esther Yu worked hard recently to avoid being type casted into this role, so they've expanded their portfolio to include more serious female lead roles -- Zhao Lusi with WRTW and LLTG, and Esther Yu with MJTY. I would recommend checking those out if you haven't seen them yet.

Yay, thank you for uploading and sharing with us! 😀

Oh also, to answer your question, I think both have a similar setup with the "reverse harem" theme (i.e., multiple MLs), but I think that's where the similarity ends. LYF has a strong FL, but her personality is very different from the FL in SOKP. Also, LYF FL's actions are driven by her childhood traumas, while SOKP FL's actions are driven by her previous life's regrets.

I wholly recommend LYF regardless of which ML you prefer. The acting, production and storyline are all A+. It's been months after Season 1 ended, and many fans are still discussing LYF daily. Even I continue to watch my fav scenes with my personal fav ML (Xiang Liu) daily, and read other fans' commentary/analysis in forums. I even went on to read the novel since I really wanted to know how the story ended, and could not wait anymore until Season 2 (since we don't know when exactly that'll be released). Come join us in the LYF fun! Haha
