What's your favourite scene in this episode? Favourite line of dialogue?

When Zhao Yunlan notices Shen Wei isn't healing. The uneasy foreboding in such a small detail!


Did Zhao Yunlan's vision actually warn of this kidnapping? If so, why are the circumstances so different?

I think that was at least sort of the intended reading. That the two scenes don't actually match can be chalked up to Zhao Yunlan's vision being a dreamlike impression rather than literal: If he only got a feeling about Zhao Xinci meeting misfortune in a car, he might have assumed/supplemented the rest.


Sha Ya shares the earrings with Hua Yuzhu and tells her they're in a fair competition

Is fair competition what they call it these days? XD


Drowning in hatred, cutting yourself off from the world. This is quenching your thirst with poison, child.
WXY: You are not Zhao Xinci.


Love how it's immediately obvious Zhao Xinci has been replaced by an impostor because he is being peaceful and reasonable.

And quenching thirst with poison is a badass line. It seems to be idiomatic, I found some info on 飲鴆止渴 here


I'm holding Hua Yuzhu responsible for a lot of this!

Right? I love misunderstandings to death, but this whole I know the truth but somwhow never manage to say something thing isn't working. Open your mouth Hua Yuzhu!


anything else that strikes your fancy!

I can't believe I never caught on to the connection between Wang Xiangyang's frosted tips and the energy drain turns hair white trope. Still enjoy the idea of him bleaching his hair to express a Rebellious Phase as a joke, but like this it suddenly makes a lot more sense in-universe.
