Regarding NQ's desperations, yeah I also feel that the novel version is more desperate. I think it's because the drama shows a lot of other characters and their development, while IMHO, they should just replace some parts (like the annoying Prince with his spoiled attitudes..seriously, do we need to see him often? ) with NQ's flashbacks instead, in order to show more about his sufferings when he was a child. Right now, we only have the flashbacks of the massacre in the general's house (which they repeated over and over again) and a bit of NQ's running from soldiers. 

I totally agree with this.  I am really enjoying this drama and there is love so much I love about it but I would also have liked to see more flashbacks to emphasise the depth of what Ning Que and Sang Sang have been through together over the years.  It's only from reading posts from book readers that I realise how much they struggled for years with just each other to rely on. 

 

I feel like it isn't made that clear in the drama that aside from revenge SS is the only reason has NQ survived to make it this far. How when NQ was near death and felt abandoned by the whole world, he found a tiny baby girl also abandoned by the whole world and that gave him the motivation to survive so she could survive.  How SS was also an important link to keeping him humane and sane otherwise he would have just turned into a completely revenge driven bloodthirsty madman. 

 

This is where some flashbacks showing their life before like showing little NQ looking after baby SS, fearing for her when she was sick with the chiling disease (I wish they had explained her sickness better in the drama too), using the little money he had on doctors, surviving before NQ joined the border soldiers would have really emphasized their relationship. 

 

I don't know if it's for budgetary reasons we only see the same two flashbacks from NQ's past (massacre and on the run from the soldiers) but I think they missed an opportunity to show the connection between NQ-SS.  Fortunately,  Chen Fei Yu and Song Yi Ren have excellent and believable chemistry and the drama provides some exposition but  the advantage of dramas should be they can show scenes like this rather than having to use our imagination like when reading.  Like @rhaps said I think it would have been much better use of screen time to concentrate on NQ-SS's relationship than some of the scenes with supporting characters which don't add much to the overall story.

Hi! Will someone kindly let me know if NQ and SS reunite this week from the wilderness? Probably not right? 

 

I just don't want to watch it, if I'm just going to see NQ with MSS all week lol. I'll wait to catch up after next week's episodes airs so I can see NQ and SS reunite

Can you tell me which chapter is on?

Chapter 497: Another dream

 

I got so addicted I just continued after reading chapters 357-359.

Actually I am new to these types of Chinese dramas.  These are very heavy weight and so complicated genres with lot of characters to remember.  So I just stay away from any of my comments and just enjoy the soompiers posts here. I have just started these type of dramas and try to understand the various situations and scenarios from others posts.  So thank you all for the detailed posts discussed here.

LOL.. actualy I think OTP might meet again next week.. maybe around ep 41/42. Hehe.. don't trust the spoiler teaser number.. its misleading..... 

 

Anyway... for anyone missing Chao xiaoshu, don't worry he'll appear again.. Maybe not so soon. But he will hehe.... and

Spoiler

possibly with a significant other too if they follow the book.. 

 

[UnniSarah 59,894]

@lynne22  He is so Hot,  Chao Xiaoshu. So very Hot 

 

@pad-hari  At least SWZ isn't molesting her, he just wanted a hug. He looks so happy to hug her. LOL LOL LOL It is so funny ... I can't stop watching this clip..   OMG MSS, confessed already. That seem so fast chingu's. 

[UnniSarah 59,894]

@angelangie   As I watch the clips , it doesn't look like they meet up yet. @lynne22 Thinks our OTP will meet up nest week but I am a bit skeptical.  If Lynne is right, I will be thrilled  

 like from Michael Jackson's Thriller song. LOL LOL LOL  Ever Night's OST is also very good. I love them so much..

[UnniSarah 59,894]

Since I have finally caught to the fight at Chao mansion. THis fight scene is way better on paper than in the drama. I still loved it on screen but I was more on edge while I was reading it. 

 

@angelangie  It is just sad that the  Prince thinks he can do whatever he wants since NQ is gone. HE chooses to act like he can do whatever he wants. He should have used his brains to try another way for SS to like him. Instead of being so forceful. 

Spoiler

OMG The Princes is the next person that Xiling spy is going to use to get the chance to kill The Empresses SOn.  SHe is so dumb, she is going to let that man use her. Smh SMh SMh  I kinda digged the nightmare the Princess had to go through. LOL LOL 

 

[Lynne 23,160]

Heehheheehehee.. because he ended up hugging WGM 

--------------------

Anyway... the people on weibo is pretty funny.....

This tag started to trend since yesterday...... 桑桑 留守女友..... I think angie can explain this better... LoL. 

But yeah.... its sad watching SS missing NQ.

he was lucky that NingQue didnt break his neck for that

Perhaps NQ would ..if he saw him pursuing SS for the 3rd time.  Look what NQ had done to LQ

she is like a beacon to him....

 

is that in episode 31? @lynne22 @UnniSarah

@angelangie  It will be in episode 39-40. chingu. It will air next week I think.  

[Yinye 4,830]

Can I vent my frustrations at the bad English subs for episode 25? Gahhhhhhhh. I'm trying to watch but not understanding fully is so very annoying. Also, I started the novel - volume 1 and wow, the early episodes of this drama really adapted from the novel - by the scenes. 

[pad-hari 18,503]

@UnniSarah, isn't the prince name Hanyuan or something.  What is the expansion of SWZ?  

WOW, Chao xioashu is hot.  

How many episodes air per week?  Where can I see the updated raw episodes aired so far?

Is this novel ending h.e.a for our OTP.  Is the novel over yet or ongoing? Becoz I was curious and straightaway went to ch.603 (recently translated)and kind of wary abt it.please clarify.  Thanks

No worries.  Only name which I remember is his name as the princess keep on repeating his name other than remebering some important characters.  

[Yinye 4,830]

@angelangie thanks. I rewatched it just now and saw they added some more of the missing subs. This whole episode was cute. 

[JoycceeDreamer 248]

If anyone watch the latest eps, (35-36). Please summarize what happened. I really want to know. 

 

Spoiler

Who did MSS and her group think Ning Que was? Anyone have any idea why Ning Que was under disguised?

Yay! I was hoping we would see him again. Chao Xiao Shu is my favourite character so far even ahead of Sang Sang and Chen Pipi (and I agree with @UnniSarah I think Chao is so hot  )

 

I'm just watching Episode 25 (thanks to the subtitle team on on viki) and I didn't realise Sang Sang can't read.  She's obviously a naturally bright and intelligent girl. Why didn't NQ didn't teach her?

[_thematchabun 2,803]

For someone who excels exceedlingly well in both combat and literacy, why didn't Ning Que teach Sang Sang self-defence/how to read? Teaching her these skills would benefit her greatly especially when NQ isnt around. Although its a good thing that Sang Sang is intuitive/smart/works around even in the toughest situation, its a bit mind boggling NQ didnt teach her these thing when he decided to care for her while growing up. So I'm excited/looking forward to see how Sang Sang manages/be her own person away from NQ. Im not too familiar with the webnovel but Ive seen some preview clips of later episodes when she meets WGM. I want to see SS interact more w/other people, since its really nice seeing her have small talks with the ladies at the brothel and the princess.
