That summer the island covered with lychee trees is as lively as a child. I found more than a little happiness on the island. It has the flavour if lychee ice honey. It has the aroma of fruit wood roasted chicken. It also has the sweet and astringent taste that belongs to youth. The only pity, the lychee trees didn't bloom that year. Let alone bear fruit.

So, can I carry you home now. Be good. Stop crying.

Aunt, hello. I'm Sang Zhi. You don't have to worry. Duan Jiaxu is a very kind and outstanding person. He treats people well and is very sincere. He excels in his studies and performs well at work. To me, my parents, and everyone, he's a very good person. Although some bad things had happened in the past, he never gave up on himself. Instead, he worked hard and endured everything with a lot of hardship. If only you can see how excellent he is now, I'm sure you must have some regrets and worries too, right? But don't worry. I'll take good care of him. I'll make it up for him and make sure he's happy every day. So, I promise you that as long as I, Sang Zhi, am here, I won't let anyone bully Duan Jiaxu again. He'll have his family in the future. He has me and many others who love him. We all love you. So, you'll never be alone anymore. Okay?

I love thiiiiiiiis communication a cdrama miracle!

[differentwoodzz]

What I mean when I say I want someone to love me like Mo Ran does, is that he loves Chu Wanning without expecting Chu Wanning to change himself for him. Instead, he finds cuteness in Chu Wanning’s flaws. Finds perfection in his imperfections. Chu Wanning doesn’t have to be the most romantic, or the most open, or the warmest, or the perfect lover. In fact, Chu Wanning is so far away from the fairytale prince, but Mo Ran loves him anyway; and sees all the things CWN has done for him. I want that sort of love for me.

[differentwoodzz]

There is something really visceral to me about Chu Wanning discovering the curse and the flower in the first timeline and realizing that Mo Ran wasn't the main "villain" of his story but the first victim of someone else's machination and nobody realized it in time to save him because the curse is made it so that nobody could see it.

It's just really sad.
