From you are not my family to you are my only family

Ep5, Loved everything. This ep made me smile so much. The way miao jing didn't wanted to go to home as she didn't wanted to be burden to him. And the way chen yi's friend just quietly understood and investigated the situation and told him says a lot that how good a friend he is. The moment chen yi just heard and the way he cleaned house so that when she comes she feel good.What i loved in this ep was two things. The way chen yi just went to her and followed her till she express her grievances. That she is also a family then why he kicked her out? She felt so hurt. And out of sadness and anger and frustration as a teenager does she just cried and the way chen yi just hugged her was sooo comforting. Pure family vibe.I just loved the way jing miao quietly and unknowingly was stepping into his world...from collecting cans to collecting scraps and understanding that his life was so hard...despite having a father a child was not able to have a proper meal was so heartbreaking both to her and me as an audience. The way they share ramen and pay electricity bills as if they are now each other's everything. They were in so much poverty struggling hard to sustain themselves and lead a life where atleast they can afford basic needs but what they had during that time was genuine care that both never got from their parents. In struggle they found their genuine smile. So comforting.Chen yi has taken her as his only person and family whom he care about and that's why he is so responsible for her. He thinks of paying tution fees which he himself don't know but he is ready to take that responsibility. The way after he got to know that her school life can come to an end if he don't get money..all he can do was to take diff path just to afford that. He is slowly going into darkness just to be the light in her life and have a good bond that they are sharing..Even jing miao was not indifferent. She immediately said that she just want to talk to her mother so that she can take responsibility and don't want to leave him...the way she throwed the electric wire that haunts chen yi shows that they have stepped into each other's world.This was their journey from "u are not my family" to " u are my only family". And the sweet beginning of their relationship from family to emotional codependency and love in the backdrop of loneliness, anondo ment, ruins and trauma.

Escape plan and recovery path

I love how Chong Yi cares for Lifei. He clearly knows who she is and wants to protect her. Once again, that just proves he deserves to be among my favourite characters in this drama. 🤗 I am quite relieved they succeeded in fooling Cui Xuan, BUT I didn't expect him to keep Lifei's master hostage in some miniature realm. And did he kill him in the end? It kind of looked like it... 😱 That just leaves Cui Xuan in my villain book for good, where he already was for some time, actually. 😤 Xiuyuan and Lifei were a joy to watch. They finally look like a couple in love, and I hope it stays that way! 🥰💞 As for Tongzhou — I suppose he'll get closer to Miao Qing while helping her recover and heal. I am still not sure if he will turn into a villain, as many—myself included—suspected when they were still at the Academy, and later now when he clearly couldn't win Lifei's heart and also maybe wanted the Divine Tree power for himself. But the way things are going with him, it just wouldn't make sense if he turned villain... though we still have 10 episodes left, so there's plenty of time. 🤔 Maybe he just sacrifices himself for Lifei and Xiuyuan in the end, and that's how the "third wheel" from their Fragrance Bond disappears? 🤷‍♀️ And good riddance, Lanya! You won't be missed!👋 P.S. Someone described this drama as LBFAD going to Hogwarts, and that's all I can see now, lol... 😂🤭
