NLE In 2026, same sex marriage is still not legal in China. I cannot begin to imagine what life was like in the early 1990s, when love had to exist in silence. Every kiss, every touch, every moment of intimacy between Lu Qing and Xiao Fan had to be hidden from the world, carrying the fear that the person who held your heart might never be accepted by your family.Xiao Fan’s life has already been filled with pain. His own brother wanted to take away the phone that was a precious gift from the person he loved, a small reminder of the love and happiness he rarely gets to hold onto.Now, his sister wants to take Lu Qing away from him and marry him, and even more heartbreaking, both parents are supporting it. The people who should have protected Xiao Fan and understood his feelings are the ones causing him the deepest wounds.In a world where he already has to hide his love, Xiao Fan’s family has become another battle he must endure. The only person who truly sees him, understands him, and loves him for who he is, is Lu Qing.Their love is not just a romance. It is a quiet fight for the right to be seen, to be accepted, and to hold onto the one person who makes life feel a little less lonely.

IrenaK They really are trying to look so uninterested and maybe even irritated by the other, yet in reality, they enjoy having each other around so much. Gah, you two... 😂I want them to make up, but I kind of enjoy watching this game they are having now. 🫣I bet XiXiao is jealous of Jiang Yan. Maybe he even thinks they were on a date and might step up his game of tortures. 🤨Sad to see what has happened with Jiang Yan's mother. Her life really hasn't been easy. And that's another life that had suffered from XiXiao's father. 😔

The mirror scene between Zhang Zhun and Gao Zhun was such a powerful. Seeing the same actor portray two different versions of the same character talking to each other was incredibly intense and emotionally gripping. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a scene executed quite like this before. It was brilliantly acted, beautifully filmed, and left a lasting impression on me.

rosalice_ Right now, the main issue is that their love story is also being told through the characters they play. I don't know if other viewers like it, but I’m not interested in the storylines of the characters they portray. Some scenes might not be bad, but others... to me, they just feel like filler.Anyway, excellent final scene.

shriek The translation has been fixed/done by a human, yay — That Phatsa asked to work, gets to read financial reports to then not go to work and beg, not even to work, but to do something *anything* outside of the house once again…… *just smile and wave boys* — Amintra. who is she, why is she, what is she. — Her being played by MFlowEntertainment’s CEO makes this feel very self insert-ish. And unless this character is well written it won‘t be more than that. *sigh* — loved to see yet another set of pheoromone/bond effects: soothing your partner & feeling the pain of your bonded soulmate (one sided so far) — also, some more of Phatsa’s Alpha-esque traits (being smart & instinctively good at shooting) — okay, Phatsa you‘ve been an Omega for what feels like a week and now you act like an ABO expert to that girl in the café? <— that makes me think: Phatsa‘s parents must be dead or gone in some other way, that would add to him not knowing about ABO. But then why was this not established in Episode 1? It made Phatsa appear very isolated and/or ignorant in an idiotic way. — love Sangnuea‘s flirtatiousness

estar before anything have to say, that last scene of them at the beach was so freakin beautiful & so fitting, after the dark dreary ambiance that was prevalent throughout this from the start - it was fitting & a promise of a bright, happy, hope filled future for the mains - who have been though hell & back - perfect ending. also read comments saying this was rushed - what??? yeah, i didn't want this to end & suddenly everything just fell into place, not only Tak but also his "Juliet" got caught & suddenly all the murderers were connected & solved in a blink. but it wasn't illogical as Ju found the incriminating piece of evidence that connected the dots to all the murders. & Song Ha Neul who had no love for his parents offered himself up the sec he targeted Chae Ha & blotched his murder. once he got caught he became another pieces of evidence that could be used to strengthen the case against Tak & O Ja Hyeon. so i don't think anything was rushed in this ep. ************************************************still wondering about Chae Ha's father's suicide & if that was indeed self inflicted, maybe there r answers to be found in the webnovel this is adapted from (to lazy to go read) so bummer that wasn't addressed. but on a whole all the lose ends were tied. ****************************************************************************************************************************************this was well written & well acted for sure a rewatch - really enjoyed this!

ugh i aint looking forward to this ending, cause even though this toxic as hell & thought so from the start, heck had a hard time liking Ju cause of his "mean girl" behavior. but this was a fun ride & really am enjoying this - but it is what it is, everything gotta end. the fact that by the end of the ep Chae Ha was back to holding onto Ju like a liferaft was hilariously predictable. dude is a masochist, so of course after the initial shock (after finding out Ju really was & why he was so antagonistic towards him), he realized he rather be miserable with him, then happy without him. *****************************************************************if anything this show goes to show u how past trauma & the things u were put through childhood molds u into the adult u r. that's why i think this is really well written & acted, cause it's not hard to figure out anything if u just "read" what is being portrayed & said. *********************************************************************************************************************btw i am kinda shocked that Tak more or less came out & confessed that he was involved in the mains father's murder & framing (guess this down to the fact we almost at the end). & always wondered if Chae Ha's father actually took his life in prison or was also "help" so Ju's father's case could be wrapped up & closed forever. idk if we will get an answer in the last ep, as we got a final revel of the "son" - will have to wait & see

Charlie C I still enjoy the story so far and am willing to overlook certain illogical/irrational details, especially when it comes to lead couple's progress. It has been prevalent since episode 19 that FL is warming to ML. Their increased screen time together helps tremendously (banzai to the wedding). I doubt there would have been anything without their close proximity. When everything else is equal and constant, I can't help but notice how FL suddenly... changes. Change is not a bad thing. It's natural and ought to be. However, it's like a sore thumb because in a single-episode span, FL went from a cold, reserve person to a soft, warm, somewhat pouty, cutesy when with ML without any transition. Even within her close circle, with her trusted people and other characters, she remains the same. This happened after ML gifted her the parrot. Maybe, it's the power of the parrot or a comedian. But ML has been an even greater comedian since the beginning, so why? Again, I'm still entertained by the series. Nevertheless, I think, it would have benefited from having a couple of transitional episodes for FL. Her characterisation made sense to me. If I were to use harsher words, it would have been character betrayal or assassination. Well, I have my criticism, but am not extreme.

Oh, I do love this kind of love! On the one hand, everything he does to her is to torture her in some ways, to spite her, and to make her play by his rules. He has all the power in this situation, and he's not afraid to abuse it! On the other hand, he wants so badly to be close to her — I can see his struggle and how much he wants to embrace her, to kiss her, yet he has to keep his act up. He's torturing himself, too, and I think he's actually suffering even more than she is.

OMG 😭And he left again, all alone…His backstory is so bitter. I felt so bad for him but I guess the other ending was pretty impossible in this case.
