this could have been an interesting watch because of the storyline where she got deceived into getting married to a different man. the fact that she was trying to get her divorce papers regardless of how would she look as a divorcee and her economic situation make for an intriguing show. haitang had to put up with horrible mistreatment from everyone on the family (except yuexuan, and only because he actually realized how he wrong her), having to live together with a man that she have never met before and hadn't agree to marry with. you could actually see how her entire character changed from those initial episodes where she was always in good spirits to downright be miserable.
after she finally got her divorce papers, i keep thinking that she either would get revenge or simply cut off ties with the whole family. but of course she couldn't stay mad nor be indifferent towards them because according to this show you have to be forgiving regardless of what they did to you.
in fact i initially didn’t even wanted that yuexuan and haitang to be together because what he did was actually unforgivable. for me, even though it was nice seeing that he apologized and was genuinely remorse, it was not enough for them to be together. yet the more everybody (especially the lang family) wanted to pull them apart the more i actually wanted for them to be together, because in all honestly even though i hated yuexuan after the wedding i started to like him once they told us he was adopted because it become then evident how he was treated by his family so i couldn't 100% blame him.
the more they showed us his supposedly "good" relationship with the lang family the more i realized the microagressions that he suffered from them (minus the sister, who actually treated him as her older brother). the fact he didn't even noticed (or maybe simply ignore) that there was a vast difference from the way he was treated that the way yueming was treated. i was honestly just feeling sad to see yuexuan giving all his energy everytime for the family and the company only to be blamed for all the bad situations and being reminded repeatedly that he is *actually* not a lang.
to see him feeling better and not be taking by those negatives comments while he was with haitang was actually quite sweet, i keep wanting for him to just literally move out of his family's house and go live with haitang and both of them never having to relate themselves with the lang family, but once again we couldn't have that.
at the end these two putting their lives at risk for yueming –from all people–, i was just furious by then.
not a single apologie or some sort of amendment from anyone, just the lang family saying we did bad stuffs :/ and them going with their lives as if it was nothing. it was just awful.
honestly the lang were just so evil i keep wanting the villain to actually win (until he started just doing way too much evil things) and lang li chun to dissappear.
i thought several times to just drop this but i actually liked haitang and yuexuan, and i always kinda finish shows even if it's making me angry. either way you can watch it for those two because there is definitely not another good thing.
