A big secret is revealed. Unfortunately, the novel is from Xiao Qiu’s point of view and we can’t really see what Li Chuan is thinking. For that matter, Xiao Qiu’s feelings are already hard to discern. It’s clear she’s slowly falling for this handsome gentleman, but her personality is quite different from someone like Xiao Ye and her feelings are mainly kept inside.
Upon watching trailers again, I can’t help but feel the drama is going to disappoint. No one can compare to the Li Chuan already formed in my head, though I’m sure Godfrey Gao will give him a run for his money. Just being prepared is all…
And so it begins. There’s considerably more of Li Chuan in this chapter which makes me happy. The relationship between them is definitely a slow start. In fact, I’m still a bit confused on where exactly the two of them started actually liking each other. I can’t quite tell what Xiao Qiu feelings were in this chapter. Was it just to get back at Xiao Ye, or did she really want to spend time with Li Chuan? I mean…spending time with him is never not a good thing…
I love it when the female lead has a back bone and is her own person. Xiao Qiu does not disappoint in this chapter, and her reactions are swift and decisive. I am certain this is also partly what Li Chuan saw in her. I really hope the drama will keep that aspect of her in it. I don’t want to have my hopes up though, I don’t find the lead actress to really fit what I had imagined…On the other hand, I can always read the novel again. And you can too!
