I have two notes 5 episodes in:

1. I know that the possibility of it not happening is about 99.9%, but I still want Mo Xiuyao to remain on the wheelchair for the whole time and not get miraculously cured by the power of love or whatever. Or at least make him so that he still would need some assistance by the end

JUST GIVE ME SOMETHING, I'M BEGGING YOU! This would personally heal me a little after a complete nightmare that was My Lovely Runner kdrama, which I'm still mad about

and

2. The music in this is just. so good. And I'm not talking only about official OSTs (tho they absolutely slap), but the background melodies? The orchestra? The feels?

I think this is a first time in a looooong while when I got gobsmacked by the sound in a drama THIS much

this is just one example of the music set to basically a murder montage (I couldn't resist lol), but do you hear it? It is BREATHTAKING

I need the names of the composer(s) and every soundtrack from this drama immediately

I love their connection, they're both scheming schemers but there is also a fondness that makes it obvious why they work well together

Baby emperor is the terrible and I sort of understand why Empress Dowager might not want to hand over the reins to this brat, but she's equally terrible so there's no good option here :<

The Prince Ding Mansion is definitely a local Trauma center, poor Wuyou literally having to grow up watching his mom destroy herself over grief. It's amazing he's grown up so (seemingly?) well adjusted

Ye Li is masking so so much trauma with her cheerful personality and I love that Mo Xiuyao is being so gentle with her

Ye Ying and Prince Li are very dumb and kinda annoying but so far thankfully quite harmless so far, even with the assassination plot and the wannabe rebellion

I don't know how to confess to this, but actually I ship them lol

Obviously; you go out shopping for assassins!

And find a random ass dude, whom I bet my soul never even killed a bug in his life, that claim to be an expert assassin

Then you do... whatever this is?

*Pspspspspsps*

*Pspspspspsps*

And he does it for days - both returning late and the apology pastries. Heeee.

Only to find out:

And then they both remember about the fight...

Hahahahahah omg

She is so good at coaxing!!!

Good lord, that poor woman. So much raw grief in this show. :'(

Cheng Lei does that kicked puppy look so well.

Oh no, not a monkey!

Christ, this show is gonna make me afraid of monkeys.

Those are gonna turn out to be human bite marks, aren't they?

Thank goodness, someone who can actually play the flute.

Ugh, the "spill something on her clothes to trick her into a meeting" ploy.

"Let's run away together~!" Really, dude???

Yes, girl. TEAR HIM DOWN.

You think she killed that guy for YOU???? Moron.

"Leave, and I'll jump into this pond!" DROWN THEN, BITCH.

Her uncle is the levity we need in this show.

The sister is so dumb. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

-squints- Is...is that the Sui guy from POJ????

Oh god, he's an idiot too. 😂😂😂😂

And....suddenly things got creepy.

Ye Li: wait you remembered me?

Mo Xiu Yao: we're talking about divorce

it was deans turn to choose a film for movie night
