I miss the times when zhanyi had moments like this:

I mean...tianshan is my favourite ship right now but years ago, I started reading 19 days because of zhanyi.

After re reading the comic for n'th times, I can see after jian yi's confession their development got slower and then story focused mostly on tianshan. But I feel like zhanyi's development has come to full stop right now :( they haven't got any emotional or significant moment for a long time, they're like background characters to tianshan's story.

I mean yeah, years go old xian made a good decision to focus and develop tianshan's relationship because zhanyi were light years ahead of them, and zhanyi were finally got to some points, jian yi confessed and zheng xi accepted jian yi's feeling for him and after that zheng xi seemed to develop some romantic feelings for jian yi but oh well. We never saw anything after that (also I'm not happy with the way old xian is going with zheng xi's character, it seems like he doesn't have any character out of jian yi anymore and he doesn't have any close relationship or significant interaction with he tian or mo like jian yi does,it's like his purpose of existence is only because of jian yi, I could go on but that's literally a different topic)

I know they are together in future, in Christmas chapters they seem to be living together, but their development has been so dry that I keep questioning myself how old xian is gonna make them a thing.

I can only hope for old xian to take a look at them and be like: oh yeah they're the main couple I need to start focusing on them too!

after tianshan officially became canon, I thought that old xian is gonna give zhanyi some major development to move their relationship from sided love to mutual feelings but it doesn't seem we're going back to zhanyi anytime soon. I believe zheng xi is in love with jian yi already"I'll go wherever you go" was his way of telling it, or jian yi's "no matter what happens, don't ever leave me". I wish we saw their reactions to these indirect love confessions.

Random but not only I want He Cheng, but I aspire to be like him. He is hot and rich, has a hot boyfriend, and most importantly he’s ageing backwards!!

after rereading 19 days for x times I finally realized how smooth tianshan’s development was made that I always got immersed to it without knowing.

My thoughts on today’s chapter :

I'm glad we're focusing more on the Jian Family's backstory in this chapter. It's bitterly sad that Jian Yi's grandparents didn't even support their daughter at all, but sadly, that also happens in reality. This is just my theory but I believe that Jy's mother, in the name of true love and hope, continues to seek for the real truth whether her fiancé is truly dead or not. This is probably the reason why she was kind of absent during Jian Yi's childhood, even if she was still overprotective of him. That's why she's so grateful to Zzx for always being there for her son. Moreover, during all this time, she was all alone, and Jian Yi was the only family she really had. Despise her flaws, she is a very strong person. I don't know if what I said makes sense, but I can’t really focus rn. But oh well, we entered another angst arc for the emotional rollercoaster.

Chapter 411

I have so much to say about today's chapter, but since I can't organize my mind like always, I'll just list my thoughts here: 

Tianshan is officially married, which will make their separation more painful to watch 

Jian Yi's parents are such couple goals. I believe Mama Jian said she wouldn't leave her lover even though she knew who he really was (since I think during their conversation she wasn't a mother yet and they didn't have Jian Yi until after but this only my opinion). However, Jian Yi’s dad was the one who left them instead as we saw in older chapters (probably dead or killed now, I don't know...). That's why Jian Yi asks Xixi not to leave him. And we know that he will be the first to leave later. As others have said, Jian Yi's parents probably foreshadow the future that awaits these teenagers. And I can add that history can repeat itself.

Someone has already explained the absence of father figures in 19 days but I can't find it. You know I'm just curious what their dads were like - - uhmm daddy issues hitting hard

To conclude, Old Xian is evil, bribing us with fluff and then beating us with angst, and I'll never be ready for that...

My mind is still processing yesterday's chapter, so what I'm about to write might be a total mess, but here's my take on it. 

In the past few weeks, we've been treated to two Tianshan kisses. More importantly, they are finally canon in the plot. I honestly didn't think we would get this far. In all these years, it never never crossed my mind they would kiss like this (in Mo's room, stuck together like magnets), which is a thousand times better. I thought we'd have to wait for their future for them to get official. And to be honest, if they weren't kissing at all during the whole story, it was clear as day that they were meant for each other and [anything that bluntly shows they are soulmates]. They could have just confessed their feelings to each other or shown that they are officially together in their future, but instead we got more from Old Xian: a kiss.

I personally thought at first their kiss wasn't really necessary to the plot, because we all know they will kiss at some point in their lives, sooner or later. I sound really stupid but I didn't expect to see them kissing at all. However I just forgot they already kissed before and it reminds me that a kiss can play a huge role in Tianshan’s development. And these last few chapters have also proven me wrong. First, the kiss is the best gift I could never imagined because it brings me an immeasurable amount of happiness. It makes me proud to see how far they came from. It makes me smile to see a consensual and passionate kiss from my comfort ship. It makes me happy to witness their intimacy and love for each other. And of course, the kiss itself is essential for both the readers and Tianshan. It impacts the reader's view of their future and, of course, it explicitly shows they are canon. It's a strong development for Mo and Tian too (I won't elaborate more on that here because it would be too long). I'm currently cringing at myself because Tianshan is the very first couple that made me goofy and made me write an entire paragraph about a kiss.

[Don't read the crossed out words if you're still emotional].

I can add that even though we had a kiss from Tianshan, there is still so much to unpack in the story, which is really wonderful. For the plot, we still have: Zhanyi's development, the anguish of the couple's separation, their future, their parents, She Li, other characters' backgrounds, the mafia part, Qiu Ge and He Cheng and more. Old Xian really managed to build a world with great settings and interesting characters, which are very promising. And these may also take a thousand years. 

To conclude my long rant, after seeing yesterday's spicy Tianshan, I am 100% sure that Old Xian has NSFW arts that will probably never see the light. I swear we will probably never see these treasures, but we can only imagine. Anyway, thanks for putting up with my nonsense, I was just confused the whole time and I still am. All of this just feels surreal to me. What a time to be alive!

Again, this is very random but this is how I imagine Mo’s parents during their youth. I am seriously curious about their story. I don’t know if Ox would tell more about them in the future.

Forgot to post this !

I also love today's official art, I think short hair suits Mo very well (of course anything would look great on him, as he said himself ;))

One day, I will see you smile again.

I remember this was my very first fanart for this fandom (which I randomly posted under a pin on Pinterest btw).

In the end I think I will only share a few of my arts as some are just too ugly to be seen srsly

Hi everyone,

I've been reading 19 days for 4 years now and I finally decided to open a tblr acc to post mainly my edits/fanarts. I have a lot of them (some are very old) and I will start posting them from the oldest to the most recent little by little :)
