It would have been the best bl ever for me if it was not for……



SPOILER ALERT

Maybe some of y’all thought I was gonna say the ending.
While I was annoyed by that crappy ending I was not surprised by it at all. It’s rare for mainland Chinese drama to have happy endings, I didn’t think a bromance was gonna be an exception. If anything I was prepared for the worst possible ending. My biggest complaint is not the ending itself but events leading up to that ending. Nothing made sense. It was like they were hell bent on having a tragic end. It’s not unheard of for a series to have many plot holes and even throughout the entire there were so many of them but the ones in the last episodes were just too much. For instance;
you telling me Suyu who hated being given hand outs would just easily accept to go to an hopistal appointment made by Wubi’s creepy brother without even questioning the whole thing at all?
Also didn’t that creepy brother even consider that even after killing Suyu, Wubi would not live without Suyu like literally? And the way those two boys used to spend every minute together didn’t creepy brother not consider that by attempting to kill Suyu he would end up harming Wubi as well?

I couldn’t even be sad at Wubi death, I honestly don’t know what the writers were aiming at by killing him. I guess they wanted to maintain the ending in the original material. But that don’t make sense either because they had changed so many things, I don’t understand why they couldn’t just change the ending as well. One more thing, I feel like the series was also unnecessary too long. By the end of three quarters of the show, most conflicts were already resolved, relationships were mended, as for the rest I felt like it was just dragging down and I was just there waiting for that miserable ending. I can’t say enough about how predictable that ending was omg. The moment Wubi gave duo duo that watch, I knew he was gonna be the one to die. When the creepy cousin started asking Wubi funny questions like; seeing you can do anything for Suyu are you willing to give him your dad’s company?—/ I was like dude, if what you want is the share of the company or rather whole of it, won’t killing Wubi’s Father be more sensible that killing this only 18 year child because you think he is a potential threat? ??‍♀

Anyway enough ranting, let’s move in to the things I liked.
This show is so much better than the show; addicted. Wubi was a better person than Guhai, he never really forced himself on Suyu, he waited for him. Their relationship seemed to have naturally grown. Notwithstanding some plot devices at the beginning for our boys to get together, the rest didn’t feel that forced. There was no nonsensical accidental falling into each other’s arm and what not.

The star for this show for me was Duo duo. Heck I loved that child. I loved the whole extended family thing they had. Their cute moments together made this little wicked cold heart of mine beat. Also I liked the fact the boys were actually studying haha all the damn time.

I wish they didn’t make the rich folks seem unredeemable though. I mean they were not that bad. I think they deserved a chance to show their humanity and kindness. Like Wubi father cared for his son, and losing his wife was not easy on him let alone having his son blame him for his mother’s death.

Cringy parts
I didn’t like that crush who turned into a fan girl and was shipping the boys. For anyone paying attention would have known that the boys were more than just friends, we didn’t need a fan girl confirming their relationship .

I didn’t like that dance the guys performed at duo duo’s school. There was nothing wrong with it just made me cringe.

I didn’t like those forehead kisses and pecks in the dark because they left me wanting more ?. They should have just stuck to hugging.
I kept checking if it’s indeed from China mainland, sometime I wished it was from Taiwan then our boys would at least kiss once. Yes while I was satisfied with the mutual pining I couldn’t help but wish for more.

Fav parts
Suyu: so Aunt Zhou is the most important person in us your life?
Wuyu: You should use that brain of yours more on other things than just solving maths problems.

Or when Suyu asked Wubi why he was crying when yet it wasn’t him that was hurt by that creepy uncle.


总结,那个结局很垃圾。but if a show is called; brother don’t run away, that’s a dead give away like literally.
