I haven’t seen ep 22 yet but it looks like SMJ shows her her memories — but they’re half memories that Shi Qianlv manipulated 😭😭
We have to wait a tad longer for our fluffy couple to come back.

I agree! I’ve seen trailers of his other upcoming dramas and I love his tone!
Wish WXY used her real voice in this - but I understand that LTY’s voice should match her light character (for the most part).

Thanks! From the trailer it seems like Reba and Feiyu use their real voice? I prefer that, particularly in FY's current role as sima jiao. Then, to see him is as a major general....
Looking forward to this!

I just made the same comment on a YT clip. The Shi Qianlv is the jovial cp shipper in LLTG, I can’t see him as anything else but a big teddy bear for ling buyi.
But the way he’s treating sima jiao here has me conflicted. 😭

Any suggestions of where this can be watched with English subs?
Major fan of Wallace and Bosco from wbw. I also assume Bosco's voice and/or Wallace's will be dubbed ? (a shame)

I wonder if she’s going to “heal” his soul needle scars the way Li Susu did? 🤣❤️

Oh I see. I wasn’t sure if there were cuts too but it was quite abrupt when she appeared on the White Snake and BJS knew it was her.
Quite frankly I was getting tired of his insistence but he turned out to be right lol

When was this plot twist that everyone talks about? About HRY not really hating BJS?
I’m not sure if I missed it. I’m up to date with the eps.

I think it’s got to do with the wind chimes in his palace. When they go off he senses that she’s in trouble.
He also had the twin flame seal thing for a few eps but he removed it from her when she hurt herself to save her Senior

Honestly, I would’ve preferred that plot from the book. They’re going around in circles and not making much progress at all since ep 15-16.
Biggest surprise for me was seeing Blue Lan (unexpected much, I’ve known him since The Outsiders days) and now they’re throwing in antagonist plot late in the piece.

Okay, this plot is starting to get on my nerves.
Xifan “hooks” Suye in episode 12 with her drunk kiss, and then proceeds to reject him for the next two eps.
She’s then conflicted but continues to see/speak to him while she finalises her study abroad application. Suye is kind and patient throughout all this, encouraging her to heal her heart wounds.
Just as we think they’re building momentum, her sh*t ass boyfriend returns (as per the preview) and throws a spanner in the works.

This drama is only 28 eps and we’re already well and truly past half way. By the time she deals with her ex arc fully, and they get together it’ll be like 6-8 eps.
Am I asking for too much to have more fluffy and cute Xifan/Suye?!
Give us our OTP already! I’m still waiting for some more romantic and steamy scenes too!

I love the little reference she made to his character from MJTY in ep 1 too! 😂

After the trauma of The White Olive Tree this is exactly the drama I needed. Bright, light, soothing. ZLH in modern scenery..*ah* #facecard
Breath of fresh air.
I haven’t seen XRH before but she seems cute and her styling is nice.
He’s so whipped😂
Never knew how thin he is too cause he’s usually under layers of ancient costume. All cdrama ML’s are so skinny 🙃

Can I ask when this was actually filmed for CZY and TJC?

They break up around ep 25 and regroup from ep 31-32 onwards.
I cringed for a bit when FL comes to follow ML around those eps lol.

Not explicitly. She never mentions it but he is aware that her eyes are bad after the 9.26 bomb explosion.

Very few dramas leave a mark on your heart when you finish them, but I binged watched the last 6 episodes and my heart is so heavy.

It’s 2am.
CZY did phenomenally, especially as the timid, PTSD 2.0 hit in the last 2 eps.
Ep 36 was heartbreaking and after watching the BTS of CZY and LJ crying during the kidnap scene, the few mins in the episode didn’t do it justice.

LZ was a true hero. SR loved unconditionally.
3 moments of truth stood out to me in this drama.

1. When they both confessed that they were traumatised after the 9.26 bombing. 2. When they apologised to each other after the Matumum attack and SR said she regretted breaking up with him and he apologised for potentially hurting her knowing he was going to come back to Eastern country and potentially die.
3. When LZ confesses that he’s been lying to her about his trauma after the hospital incident in the last eps.

So much angst, keeping truth from the one you love to protect them (heroic idiocy) and misunderstanding.
Ultimately, they didn’t give such a heavy ending as the book (based on the comments here), but it was bittersweet nevertheless.
They survived, married and left together.
However you interpret it.

I knew both were great actors but CZY really stole the show on this. He was exceptional. I couldn’t imagine any other actress pulling off unconditional love and heartache as LJ too.

I’m unsure how we’ll all move on from this. Thank gosh there are some funny BTS to rebalance me.
I hope we all live a free life like the last quote said and find our own white olive tree.
This show has left a mark on all of our hearts.

I’m glad you are. The way SR is has me cringing at the screen. Somehow I have second hand embarrassment for her lol.
LZ is respecting her wishes.
When she said if he regretted anything and he looked like he was biting his lip holding back, I cried.

Thanks! After seeing the girlfriend of the deminer specialist who died, he deleted the message. 😭

After ep 11 or so but they return later on in the show.
