Zhou Jun's gf Yao Xin was sexually exploited by Wei Jin in exchange for a promise of promotion. However he never…
Let's look at Mingying's bf. He openly flirts with an older woman at a restaurant to close a deal. He uses his boss's daughter (hiding his relationship status) to get promotions. This is his choice and that's how he is , a clear red flag. There is no coercion there.
Let's look at Yao Xin's story.
To me it appeared like although she (reluctantly) agreed to her boss for a promotion it was in a way a choice she made. It is not like she was impoverished and couldn't meet her basic needs that she had to do it. He was making inappropriate advances even before and if she wanted to she could have discussed this harassment issue with her bf and dealt with it or quit the job if necessary. When she agreed to his demands, it already meant that she was compromising her relationship with her bf and we have seen how she was avoiding him later. She definitely wouldn't have expected that after she gets the promotion her boss will leave her and she can then live peacefully with her bf. The relationship with her boss would have probably continued despite. It was like she was caught in a trap. Then is she a good girlfriend or a red flag? I think its the latter. Because firstly she didn't discuss something as serious as sexual harassment with her bf meaning there is no transparency in their relationship. Secondly she tried to achieve professional growth not through hardwork and patience but through means that is considered unacceptable in a relationship. Even if she was forced once on that day, she could have then taken a call not to continue. This is a matter of principles not vulnerability. Instead of being an equal partner, she downgraded her bf to a weaker position in their relationship.
It is so unfortunate though that this sort of still happens in society.
That's why couples need to build a solid foundation of understanding and trust in a relationship and that's what the main leads story is teaching us.

Regarding XHS mom, she was unable to bear the stress and emotional burden of being a criminal defense lawyer's wife. Their family had to handle judgment, harsh questions and criticisms from not only victims family and acquaintances but also from the entire town. The children's safety would be affected. So she chose to divorce him as his dad was an upright man and couldn't leave his profession either. Upto that point also is ok. But being a mom, seeing what her son went through during the family's stressful period , I thought she should have supported him better. (Although she did not know that it was because his sister didn't want to go to US that he had to leave and not because he loved her any less). And accept that it was his own decision to pursue a career in law. Over the years the distance increased and they were estranged. Yes as a mother I still feel she could have taken a little softer and gentler approach towards her son. XHS has done a good job clearing his father's name and family reputation and patching up with mom. He brings the family together. No apology from mom but hope she makes amends by looking after her husband well now. In the novel the mother still keeps in touch with her son through calls and she visits him when he is hospitalised in Hang City and he visits her when he visits Su City.

Zhou Jun's gf Yao Xin was sexually exploited by Wei Jin in exchange for a promise of promotion. However he never really did give her any perks but continued to use her with threats. On the day she was murdered, she and Zhou Jun were going from Su city to visit Ruan Yu's parents in Hang City suburbs. After having an argument Zhou Jun gets off the car and Yao Xin continued to drive (as per Zhou Jun's confession- pleading not guilty). That day Yao Xin had called Wei Jin from an unregistered number and had gone to meet him to threaten him with the evidence that she had against him. Watch Episode 27 first 10 minutes where it's shown that the police recovered the voice message in her phone which Wei Jin destroyed.
Regarding Zhao Yi and Xu Huashi, they are in high school. Its ok upto "I like you" at high school but…
Zhao Yi didn’t confess but his mom is giving a green signal 😂 I thought giving a lift to Xu Huaishi in her porsche was very sweet. And she was discussing about them with Xu Huashi's mom in the wedding (with the two in the background). Some things are just shown. Atleast no class difference here for a change 😅
Episode 2 - The leads meet after a decade Episode 15- She comes to "know" he attended the same school and has recognised her in the first meeting itself (basically her fears come true, he knows her and that he is the protagonist in her novel) Episode 19- Realization ( what really matters to her about Xu Huaisong) Episode 23 end- Knows about his drafts Episode 24- confession and first kiss Episode 29- A grand proposal in the same school Episode 29- They register their marriage. Do the deed 😉 Episode 30- wedding
Their story is not about falling in love but about returning to it. Their journey is told in two timelines - current and then (high school)
It’s a slow-burn nostalgic romance. It’s a lighthearted watch with a simple plot. Hope the above will decide whether it's for you or not.

Some information on Douban scoring: Douban rating is a major Chinese media review platform, a highly influential Chinese, user-generated review system on the social networking site Douban used to rank films, TV dramas, books, and music.It is regarded as a key indicator of quality for Chinese content, with scores of 7+ generally indicating good quality, and 8+ signifying a high-quality "must-watch" production. It heavily influences Chinese box office and streaming performance, often acting as a "word-of-mouth" indicator. It is known for focusing on artistic quality, acting, and writing over pure fan popularity, often used to contrast against more "slanted" idol-focused platforms.
Respect is the bottom line of being a decent human being, and treating hard work with kindness is basic conscience! The production company "The Lantern in the Daytime" and its streaming platform have been suppressing the release of materials, misspelling names, and completely removing promotional materials, maliciously ignoring Wei Zheming and Yan Ke, and engaging in double standards and cold violence, wantonly trampling on their dedication and sincerity! The success of a work depends on the perseverance of every creator, not on favoritism and arbitrary suppression. Actors' dedication is not a reason to be mistreated, and fans' genuine support is not capital to be squandered. Ignoring dedication, trampling on sincerity, and showing no respect not only kills the morale of actors but also destroys the fairness and bottom line that the industry should have. Dedication should not be betrayed, and respect should not be trampled on. We strongly demand that the parties involved face up to the problem, issue a public apology, and treat actors equally, restoring the dignity and fairness that actors deserve! @TheLanternInTheDaytimeOfficial@TencentVideo # TheLanternInTheDaytime
Recently, a short interview by Wei Zheming on his character Yan Ke which was supposed to air on 10th April was not aired. The above was from fans in response to that, for not releasing his promotional materials and also for various other unfairness on WZM.
1. That he missed the Tencent event in early 2025 when LBTG just wrapped when Dilraba, CFU and Zhang Li went to promote 2. Missed Hi6 recording with LBTG cast in February 3. Missed the LBTG drama promotion live event in March
Well we can't be sure if they made him 'miss ' it or if it was genuinely a scheduling conflict (as they say) I wonder if he will be allowed to write a farewell note to his character Yan Ke He is eloquent and can't do short summary 😂 I remember he wrote a lengthy one for Liu Chang and netizens were amazed at his deep grasp of the character and his wonderful portrayal of the same. Lets wait and see.
