Oh, it's you!! We are always watching the same dramas aren't we 😂
But also yeah I need to prepare those tissues cause even if this get a happy ending, it will be a hard won one 😭

I would prefer for this to have no romance, but if they must then I can accept a love triangle only if they won't give us two people in love with the same person. I need a REAL triangle duh I want A to be in love with B who actually likes C, but C has eyes only for A.
Give me something like this and I'll be fine with it 😂

I honestly don't know from what episode those spoilers are (I watched until ep 24 as they get release on kisskh bc I can't watch it in any other way) and I didnt want to spoil myself further.
If you want to know exactly what I saw, I can tell you, but if you're also on xiaohongshu we probably saw the same things 🥲

For everyone who wanted the angst, well it's coming 😭😭

I need to stop scrolling on xiaohongshu cause now all I'll be thinking about are those damn spoilers 😭

Between Hong going to Shaoshang's university just to clear his reputation and our young master complimenting the inspector behind his back (little girl thank you for spilling the tea 😂), these two eps were full of precious moments 🥺

I think our poor boy was just overwhelmed by his own emotions: after all the stress for his mother's death and the case he got pulled out from, it's clear he was very moved by Shaoshang's words (Hong was admiring Shaoshang like our boy is the sun incarnated 😭), plus I don't think he was expecting to have his hand held and he doesn't seem someone who get physical affection often tbh.

To me (since I see this as a censorship bl story) I see that scene as the moment Hong kinda realises that his feelings for Shaoshang are different from simple friendship and camaraderie. But this is my personal interpretation!

Dew's acting is getting better everytime I see him, so props to him. Neo is also doing a wondeful job in his role, he's just one of those magnetic actors, you can't help but look at him everytime he's on screen. Tee's acting is good enough to no get me out of the story.
Shout out to the girls, Prim and especially to Praew, cause I'm enjoying their scenes a lot actually.

The story is not building the thriller aspect well enough unfortunately - even if I'm curious about the killer, I don't feel a rush to get and think about their motives and who is gonna be the next, how are they gonna choose their victims. Idk I guess what's missing is the sense of urgency of the overll situation.

Also I'm not even gonna pretend Inspector Phat isn't already smitten with Kay cause that's just plain obvious and the scriptwriters can go and eat that 'b' out of bromance lmfao like bfr now.

The puppies were adorable in those last two episodes btw I need Shao Shang to be around dogs more often 😂

That focus on Hong's trembling hand after Shao Shang held it wasn't slick one bit lmao 😭

Unfortunately I'm also not that interested in the drama, so I do the same helppp watching everything at x2 speed until my girl Bu Shulin gets on screen 😭

The way I started this drama only because my gay ass couldn't resist Shuai Qi dressed up as a young general... damn her Bu Shulin is so handsome 😩

Kinda endearing how Dew managed to get Kaye across as an absolute awkward bean, but extremely suspicious at the same time.

Wanted to switch off my brain and watch something short with a reverse gender roles trope, didn't expect to actually have fun with this.
Definitely I wasn't expecting to see Zhen Xuan lmfao but he did not disappoint, he played his role really well. I was quite charmed by his character 😂

The editing is bit over the top and the plot kinda get lost midway, but I enjoyed it nevertheless since the acting was good.

Also, I found the princess frustrating at first, but the buzz she had with both the Xia princes in the last ten episodes was truly insane lmao.

Here you can find them all ✨

Well... Apart from littering, which he definitely shouldn't do, I don't find the rest to be that much of a problem... But I can imagine that for chinese entertainment all of those are just scandals waiting to blow up. Sigh. I really hoped everything would work out this time.

So happy they choose to maintain the same cast for all these last adaptations, this is giving me hope 🙏🏻

I was already mad that Xu Lei brought out that damn aliens/meteor thing, but I hated the romance with burning passion, especially because it added absolutely nothing to the story; why did I even had to watch that?

It's clear that Xu Lei himself didn't know what direction he wanted to take or how to resolve properly the character's conflict (idk why he even bother to change the plot's novels at this point) and the fact they filmed three endings already was a big warning sign, but I hoped that they would just derail-crash the ending episode, not the whole final arc.
Which is unfortunate cause this show had so much potential... I'm almost hoping that some very talented fan will re-edit the whole story adding the bts to make up a proper finale.

They are making a drama adaptation of Cheating Men Must Die?? omfg I can't believe it I'm cackling this is could be so good or irremediably bad, but either way I'm sat 😂
