PWX was not a weak husband.I loved his determination to hold on to LR but at times he voiced his frustration and LR fear of him leaving her would be evident. He always assured her that he would stay by her side. He was her rock for the times she needed someone to lean on. And he was also her advisor for the times he thought she was going to make a mistake. This showed strength in his character.

This is sad. ZLH was amazing in his role as PWX. I saw the different sides to his character and loved him. Even though the drama did not go into detail about his career in politics, it was evident that he had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of politics and was a brilliant strategist. He was confident and brave. The fact that he doted on his wife and wanted to stay by her side time around does not make him a simp. I watched the drama for the drama and ZLH convinced me PWX was all of of the things I previously mentioned. I loved him when he put his uncle in his place and got the control that rightfully belonged to him. I loved him when marched right up those palace stairs to get to LR. And more....

I did not know this! I loved AASOL and had LeiMai as my profile picture for several months and I still loved TPR. She is a an excellent actress. I loved her spin on LR much better than in what I read in the novel.

Someone made me read chap 171 and I didn't like the amnesia scene because PWX didn't like LR and worked against the chemistry we saw in the drama. But somehow, it was so ridiculous the huge bump on his head that it worked as a comedy 😂 And then the hickies the morning after the "elexir"😂

It's okay. I figured it out after. I loved the snuggling also! PeiRong is an adorable couple with a wonderful chemistry.

I loved the visuals. The bonus episode is especially bright and happy. I loved it when they did the overview shot.

That bump! 😂

Yes. I got this from the scene also. One thing I did not understand from reading only parts of the book was why did PWX fake SRQ's death?

Now this I will agree. However, L&P did not get to a rating of 9 here on MDL because people felt the ML was toxic. It is too bad that some will not look deeper into the characters of a drama.

People are so obsessed with SRQ's screen time and what they feel is the intention of the director to romanticize his scenes that they didn't even notice LR didn't help SRQ when he was bleeding to death. I heard the blood gush out at one point. But LR stood far. It wasn't until he pulled out the little object (is it a dragonfly?) from the past that she went closer. It was a touching scene.
I don't think PWX was trying reunite LR with SRQ. I am rewatching now and did not get to that part but I think he wanted to test her. I will pay close attention to his reasons when I get to it.

Absolutely! I also agree that SRQ's death scene was dragged out. They should have stopped much earlier. But I also understand that his pov needed to be addressed.

I loved the soup scene and wish we had seen the kids with PWX and LR. But it was still a joy to see more of PeiRong. And we got Tong Ye too! 😂

I would not even respond to the person who is obsessively sharing hate on this drama.

The actors were great especially the leads.

I hope you saw the bonus episode. I am mentioning it because some did not know about it.

I love the OST for PWX and LR. The one that plays when PWX went to rescue LR in front of the palace was perfect for the moment. If you rewatch you will pick up on more details as I am now.

I hope people ignore the negative comments and see for themselves.

In addition to yours and Skz:
*PWX telling LR whether she needs 10 years or 20 years he will be patient
* As part of PWX marching up the stairs with no hesitation or fear, when PWS said, "Either I die with you or take you home."
* The first time PWX saw LR he said he remembered the time as the most beautiful memories of his life. The way he smiled watching her.
I will think of more. Going to watch ep 2 again on Netflix.

I ignored him as much as could because I felt so bad after reading chap 170! I only watched him for info about the past in regards to who was behind killing LR. Once LR found out that is was SRQ who killed her and not PWX, I noticed she was not devastated only shocked. I knew she didn't love him so I was able to just focus on the present. I wish they had not included all the flashbacks at the end. It would have been much better if they had just let that part go as we already saw some flashbacks. I totally agree that it was too much time spent on those memories especially as I didn't want to know! But some parts such as the twirling off the cliff were so weird I just laughed it off. The main couple had such a beautiful chemistry that made me love TPR.

Somehow I didn't find her indecisive in the drama. I saw signs from both leads as they were dying that they felt deeply for each other. I am watching again now and I am seeing even more detail. In the book LR slapped SRQ but in the drama she told him she would hate him if he killed PWX. I tried to focus on the present and didn't want to think about what LR in the book did with SRQ. In the drama it looked like LR liked SRQ in the beginning maybe because she had good memories of him. But PWX looked at LR and remembered the past when he first met her as the most beautiful memory in his life.
