yeah, i would have liked a BE, too, when normally i will cry. the best ending would be when ML sees MC before he disappears (the scene with the lake) and ML then tried to suicide. ML wakes up in hospital, is still alive and then remembers that MC wishes ML to live and have a good life. so ML decides to live for MC but stay his whole life alone bc he deserved it and he always thinks of MC until his death.
and i kinda think that a BE would have been more suitable. so far, the MC isn't blind to ML's many cruel actions anymore and can mock the ML for his actions now. i.e. when ML is looking at the only photo which includes MC when before it was also ML that burned all the other photos with MC in it. So MC is now mocking him and finds it laughable that ML is NOW doing this when it's already too late.
This isn't love at all!!! And it never ever will be called LOVE!!! you'll never hurt your lover, make them suffer and take advantages of their love DDDDX
You will have to read the novel that has their previous life's story to understand. ML lied his entire life about his feelings for MC and marries then has a child because that is what the only son does in ancient times. Their story spans more than one lifetime. In the linked novel, you will see parts where the author references them having visions. Like ML in ancient clothing with a fan and such.
I don't think his past life's mistakes can absolve his wrong doing though. Even if there are reasons, one should still take responsability for the pain he caused.
That...would have been the best ending, I definitely agree with you there. Even tho I dislike BE but for this novel, that ending would have been best.
I'm just pointing out that ML is not perfect and in fact is so dense with his own emotions that he's spent lifetimes in denial. MC enables him by being a doormat each time. It's an improvement that ML actually is able to acknowledge his own feelings this lifetime. Is he great? No. In fact I think he's a slag gong. Has he improved? Yes.
Good for him then. Getting better is always a good thing. I hope in their next life time they will be good for each other
it's now 4 am and i have to "wake up" at 8 to go to uni. but before, i need to do my homework...soooo, what am i doing instead? i read 2/3 of the novel orz no sleept for me tonight it seems, haha...
I kinda was like that, too, bur curiosity got the best of me and now i‘ve already read 2/3 of it. It‘s a quick read and not that bad i think. I mean it‘s sad but bc of spoilers my heart wasn‘t that shaken. I was more shocked and shaken when i read the first arc of Washing clean the slag uke, when the ending was so sudden. Here you know how it will kinda end, it‘s a slow going emotional rollercoaster.
Spoiler about this couple. They are a side couple in a past life in Ashen-Gray Moon and Heartless. Luo Fan (ML here) almost dies and is turned into a sentient zombie by Zhao Jing (MC from other novel). ZJ's master, Xiao Heng (MC in this novel), gets beaten up by Luo Fan and blamed for making him into a zombie. He is mad and curses Xiao Heng out. He says he hopes that he leaves him alone forever and that they never meet in the next life or the next life thereafter. There is a way to give him life back. It requires someone who loves him to give him all his blood and life-force. Despite how much ZJ begs, Xiao Heng decides to give up his life for the guy he loves. So he dies, but no one can know. He cuts his wrists and feeds his blood to Luo Fan. As he does so, he says that he hopes they never meet again and that Luo Fan lives happily this life and the life thereafter without him. I'm listening to this part as I'm driving and it's like instant river of tears. AGH!
omg, i'm already tearing up reading this!!! i really hope that Luo Fan gets to know this and regrets his treatment to XH!!! so Luo Fan is the ML and ZJ is the MC in that Ashen moon novel??
