Is this a common thing that fans request the actors perform for them if the drama hits a certain level?

You don't get the same emotional impact from watching a clip as great as it is. It's better to watch it in the drama.

The video of XK reluctantly promising to sing at 28000; but I thought before someone say he promised to sing and dance.

I would love to hear XK speak some French. It doesn't have to be perfect. The tone will have that sexy European sound.

The famous part in the novel when they play dice she lost and promised to do whatever he wants.

Will this get it to 28000?

in the case of HT and ZD, HT became more and more tired of her dirty tricks.

I think he meant you can't take pictures of strangers

I was thinking of The Sound of Music how Captain Von Trapp (Han Ting) has the beautiful, wealthy, sophisticated, cultured and high social status, matured and well-dressed Baroness (Zeng Di), her relationship with Captain Von Trapp (HT) seems practical—a match based on societal expectations and convenience (Grandpa matched HT and ZD). Their pairing aligns with the norms of their privileged world. However, their connection lacks emotional depth. Their interactions are polite but lack the spark of true love. The Baroness (ZD) appreciates Captain Von Trapp’s status and stability, while he (HT) appreciates her companionship. Maria (Ji Xing) on the other hand, is a breath of fresh air. Even though she (JX) is impulsive and spontaneous and chaotic, her warmth, kindness, and love for music (JX's capability, passion and vision) draw Captain Von Trapp’s (HT) attention. Maria’s (JX) authenticity contrasts sharply with the Baroness’s (ZD) sophistication. She brings laughter, spontaneity, and a sense of adventure into the Von Trapp household (HT is amused and intrigued by JX). The gazebo scene, where they dance and share their feelings, is pivotal. It’s there that Captain Von Trapp realizes he’s falling in love with Maria—a love that transcends societal expectations. The film beautifully captures the tension between practicality (the Baroness) and emotional fulfillment (Maria). It reminds us that love isn’t always predictable or logical—it’s messy, surprising, and wonderfully human.

the best is yet to come

The reason it can hit 27000 is because two leads are in more than half the episode. Need more of that to hit 28000.

Someone picked up on this detail that is interesting. In the car, he was staring down at her and as soon as she looked up, he stared down.

Here's another insightful analysis: Since HT is spending time with JX, Tang Song could get off work at least two hours earlier every day......

the novel goes into a lot of details

The ending scene of ep. 20 is masterful and they just simply look exquisite together.

"German sounds sexy"
I thought in the novel, Ji Xing said German is for talking to horses, in a jab at HT.

Need more close ups of their expressions

Thank you so much. You got me interested. I found another link, has the English words.

it's really hard to express. it's just something one sees. it's like art.

XK has a beautiful expressive singing voice. Not bad for an amateur singer.

Here's Wang Kai singing the same song. He's a professional singer though.

not easy to be HT's assistant

I like the drama shows real products, real manufacturing sites and processes, etc. makes it feel more realistic.
