Cdrama - Chasing Jade (Ep. 28) - thoughts
Steamy metalworks montage with a great soundtrack. I will allow it.
My other BABYYYYY. So smart.
That's the spirit. Love how it was him correcting his protector on attitude.
Ugh the set design and these piece are just exquisite.
My intrepid baby Changning helped herself to some brekkie and sussed out it was her beloved brother-in-law who made it. The kids on this show are just precious.
The exchange between Changning and the Grand Tutor was adorbs, too.
I am gonna save this to use in real life.
Asking the pertinent questions.
She sure does when the script allows it.
The Godfather/Goddaughter moment made me tear up. I thought it was very sweet and also very in character for her.
Loved the haziness of this and the fear.
I appreciate that even though she is a butcher, it is not the same thing to her.
As a big fanfic reader, and sometimes writer, I could see a F/F fic being born from this hug.
Her leaving to find QianQian and also to go back to Ling'an made sense for the character to me. Her team also leaving with her, should constitute desertion. Driving home once again, how little discipline there is in Xie Zheng's military camp. It's not his fault, he's supposed to be a brilliant hardcore military general but for script reasons, here we are.
He follows her and tries to get her back.
Spoke in the third person for starters, hid his identity and deployed an elaborate scheme, too.
Easy for you to say when you are on top of the pyramid.
I am caught up to episode 30 so I sincerely hope there is more payoff about these class differences between them before the show wraps. It's great television if done right!
Bold to show that he had kinda forgotten about her. I appreciate the directing and acting choice here.
I get what she's saying but also, really girl? Didn't you say you would be cool with him getting promoted to Marquis someday when he was still Yan Zheng?
Okay, so back when he left Ling'an he really just left her defenseless after all. Stop telling us he is a brilliant strategist and general show AND show usssss!!!
Meanwhile, in the Sui Madhouse
Daddy got that drip, too.
RUDE. I love the two sons contrasting. Silver hair, black robes. Black hair, silver robes.
I am sure it was intentional to make him look like he is gliding across the floor like the demon he is. @romchat would know more about what this type of shot is called. It's beautiful and atmospheric.
Finally our other baby has been rescued. Calling him Uncle Yan made me so emotional.
Gongsun Yin being the de facto nanny for both our kiddos melts my heart. What a softie.
I loved the shot of her back, showing real bruises after she fought that other dude.
So, this episode had a weird edit of their intimate scene and what little flashback we got was so dry that I don't know what to say. We know both actors have done steamy kisses in other shows before. Heck even the non-consensual kiss in Ling'an had more to it. Onwards to episode 29.
