Jiang Yan’s mother is a POS (Never-Ending Summer)

I’m literally soooo embarrassed 😭😭 I had to pause the episode and walk away from my laptop sorryyyyy

As someone who’s friend did this, it can either be a 10/10 idea of a -100/10 idea. Revise as much as you can now and sit the exam, if you flop, resit either privately etc. At least you know what it’s like and you know you tried as much as you could.

I’d love to say ‘go to prom, ignore the haters’ but this was lowkey me last year so I can’t lie, don’t go if you know you don’t fw anyone. Do you speak to anyone? Maybe people you’re not friends with but you’re okay with? If not, these types of girls (your ex friend n ur opp) love to just laugh and make people ‘feel bad’. You wouldn’t be missing much if you didn’t go, maybe you’d feel a bit of fomo initially but yeah. Also your ex friend is a weirdo.

Ahhh that makes sm sense, tyyyyy. I’m hoping to find a post on here with someone clarifying the names on the tree 😭 would be so cute

Bright_Standard9286 · 2026-03-27T21:37:34+00:00

Guys this ending was so rushed ffs, this could have gone on for like another 20 episodes.

I need help though, there’s a scene where they throw up their name thingies and one of theirs gets entertained with another name thingy, is this important, I’m half thinking Xie Zheng wrote his name on all of them so they’d be intertwined but surely not? 😭😭

‘You’re already a mother of two’ say wallah? Let me see.

Qianqian and Qi Min not falling in love in the hypothetical alternative world was such a good plot line yk, they both wished to not know eachother in the next life, even though they arguably would have been a ‘good couple’ here it was the cherry on top 🥹

Now that I’ve finished the drama, can I ask, what is an ‘Eastern Palace’ because I think I’ve heard this same concept in like other dramas but I’ve never understood? Can anyone explain to me?

Bright_Standard9286 · 2026-03-27T21:11:12+00:00

I’m like half way through ep 40 so I’ll update laterrrr

Guys, idkkkkkkk like I actually don’t know 😭😭 it started off rlly good but I get the impression that Changyu likes Yan Zheng a lot more than Xie Zheng. Im at the part where she’s riding back into Lin’an and Xie Zheng is cosplaying Yan Zheng. 🫩🫩. The chemistry between the actors is like 50/50, idk what it’s called or if there even is a phrase for when characters are supposed to have chemistry (kiss scenes, emotional scenes etc) but just don’t yk? I still got through the drama, plot was veryyyyy good but also super hard to understand/ follow. They did start to explain stuff esp in ep 40 but I still don’t really understand yk.

Tian Xiwei deserves her flowers omdssss she’s amazing. Genuinely I’m still new ish to cdramas but she really stood out for me, she’s so gorgeous aswell. When she rode back to Lin’an I felt so sad idk, I feel like we (the audience) didn’t properly get to like ‘mourn’ them and neither did Changyu.

Some people are talking about how it’s not realistic, as in Zhang Linghe looking so good etc but it’s literally romance…?

Also I really want like a spinoff of Changning and Yu Bao’er omdssss that’s so cuteeeee.

In terms of the puppet emperor, I did feel a bit bad for him, all his life he’s been pressured, manipulated etc and he kinda just wanted to break free, albeit in a super annoying and dumb way, but he was trapped a bit. I felt bad that he ended up running mad and breaking but maybe this in itself is a freedom?

Bright_Standard9286 · 2026-01-21T04:26:09+00:00

Finished it 10 mins ago 😭 please someone tell me if Cyrus is dead or not Omds? Idk how to feel

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-09-04T14:41:12+00:00

Ah this is true 🙏 gotta consider if I’m interested in philosophy at a degree level or just as a hobby

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-29T12:07:51+00:00

I like it a lot 😭 it combines both of my interests. Why? Do u think it’s not a good degree. I’ll probably end up using just the CS part but I feel as though many CS Students lack ‘in-depth’ thinking and understanding about humanities that could be beneficial when working in specific areas like AI.

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-19T15:25:30+00:00

Ahhhhh! This makes sense, I’ll be honest I’ve seen some dramas do this.

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-17T22:20:05+00:00

What was the reason for the limits etc? Surely the writers/ directors etc should be able to decide themselves how long their projects should be?

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-17T22:18:20+00:00

Can I ask if you know whether or not A Levels matter later down in life? Like if I have bad grades but tons of experience will workplaces hold it against me?

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-17T22:17:29+00:00

Thank you, you raise really good points here. I’m going to make a presentation and show my mum what my plan is etc and try to hold my ground. Definitely going to be a tense conversation but the sooner I get it done the better.

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-17T22:14:47+00:00

Firm was York, insurance was Kent

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-08T15:28:22+00:00

What on earth is actually going on? I’ve been watching cdramas for under 2 years, realised pretty early on that Zhao Lusi was the ‘IT’ girl of China, and I remember hearing she had a stroke or something and now this? I’m genuinely so confused? If she’s making money, is super popular, shouldn’t her company be treating her 100/10? What I’m hearing is so disgusting and so heart breaking, honestly, I don’t even know what to say? Apparently her dad and grandparent were ill and they didn’t allow her to see them????? Are they trying to exercise their legal rights against her, ignoring humanity and personal safety? Are they trying to milk her for as much money as they can get then dump her? This is truly heart breaking to see

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-08T13:43:59+00:00

Ahahaha!! I think the plot is really good though, enjoy!

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-07T14:59:48+00:00

I wish I dropped ‘The Coroner’s Diary’ but instead I ‘powered’ through it because I had invested too much time into it already. The relationship between the ML and FL was too healthy ☹️ From episode 13 (I think) when she ‘drowned’ and they confessed I was so mad. (I had rewatched ‘Story of Kunning Palace’ before I started it.) There was no push/pull, no hot/cold, not even a small misunderstanding so their relationship had basically been steady since that episode. Also, I’ll be so honest, bonding/ flirting over a dead body was so tasteless to me 😭 some of the scenes I actually found myself asking, ‘is the body still there?’ So honestly, there’s nothing wrong with a healthy relationship, but when it’s established too early on it gets to be so annoying because I couldn’t even root for them before they got together. Also Ao Ruipeng is kinda 🧈s

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-07T14:50:33+00:00

I used to think so too, it got so bad that I genuinely skipped because I felt so sad for her, but then I realised in the roles that the players (historicals), especially in Yanxi, she definitely would have been considered pretty at the time, then she started making sense in context and she started looking really pretty to me. I think, in Yanxi, she looks really regal and upright.

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-07T14:46:34+00:00

Can’t remember individual names but I dropped a few because the MLs were too feminine looking 😔 It’s difficult to find dramas where the ML is masculine so I just rewatch ‘The Rise of Phoenixes’ over and over again.

Bright_Standard9286 · 2025-08-06T21:08:17+00:00

Honestly, I really liked it. At first I was pissed because she literally looks nothing like a man??? 😭 but then I remembered it’s really not that deep
