I know I keep saying this but I can't believe someone actually looks like this for real.

It's the same feeling I got watching young Hyun Bin, Chen Kun, Peter O'Toole, Robert Taylor etc - like how is this man actually real? (Or if we are going for ladies, Liu Yifei and Vivien Leigh.)

I know we, and Changyu, especially, have been peeling back the layers in Xie Zheng's personality well before this scene. From the glimpses she sees of the real him, the little slip ups or casual mention of violence or even his disdain for people in power, she knows there's more to him beneath his cavalier gebtleman persona. But in her heart of hearts, she still thinks of him as a delicate princess locked in an ivory tower. One whom she rescued from a snowy death and for whom she is responsible for. She feels protective of him even while knowing he can hold his own. But this is perhaps the first time she truly sees his real face behind the mask and it. is. fucking. terrifying.

This is the first time he's showed her, in the most visceral way imaginable, the depth of his feelings for her. He's jealous, angry, and lashing out! He can't believe that she would be so accepting of their separation, doubting whether he even means anything to her. And so, like an idiot, his jealousy pushes him to the edge when he forces a kiss on her, trying to imprint himself to her memory.

The way he callously wipes his lips off blood after she slaps him. And his look of disdain?? That arrogance of wounded pride of a thwarted lover?? She has never seen this side of him! This is the same man who felt too shy and flustered to look at her naked ankles. To see him here, now, it's like looking at a stranger. The look of hurt, confusion, and betrayal says it all. In that minute, she doesn't recognize her lover.

Changyu hasn't been the best judge of character. She trusted a man for 10 years, and he betrayed her in the worst way possible. So her hurt and confusion are understandable. Had it been under different circumstances, Xie Zheng would have probably handled this better. But boy has decided to put his foot in it and be a possessive idiot and kiss away her doubts, and it's no wonder that shit doesn't work!

This scene is so layered, and it shows them at their most vulnerable with each other, second-guessing everything and feeling hurt over the other's actions. It pierces through the paper window of their relationship, laying out feelings that they were both dancing around while playing house prior to this. It's the perfect segue into the next arc when Xie Zheng "conscripts" into the army and leaves their town. It is one of my favourite scenes from the novel. And I genuinely can't believe they pulled it off to perfection!!! I'm crying!! 😭😭
