at one point, casting directors discovered that zeng shunxi is very good at looking at men with absolutely palpable love and devotion in his big ol' eyes, and then they never looked back

i hate the ultimate note cliffhanger more than anyone but you realize if there had been a second season, it would have ended with xiaoge knocking out wu xie and going behind the bronze gate? and then, even worse, wu xie waking up alone in a snowstorm and by his own admission losing his entire tiny mind looking for xiaoge for three days, in quote "utter despair"? and then finally giving up and going back to wushanju heartbroken, looking out the train window and smoking the first of a million lethal cigarettes? and he would have wept and railed against it and grieved, and, because zeng shunxi understood the assignment and would have put his whole chest into it, none of us would have survived. and that would have been the ending, until sha hai. THE ENDING. i'll take the cliffhanger thank you please, no notes

Hils Watches Mysterious Lotus Casebook - Ep 1
Okay, I really shouldn't be doing this, but I keep seeing gifs and how am I supposed to resist two of my DMBJ boys in the same drama. Especially when one of them is Cheng Yi who I love.
Also, I promised @xantissa I would check it out and report back.
I'm only going to be watching this in slow time because I really want to finish The King's Avatar, but on a weekend when I have a bit more free time I can squeeze in an ep here or there. So there won't be regular updates for this one.
Also, I don't have a VIP iqiyi account so I can't watch it too fast anyway :D
I think I read that people involved Blood of Youth and Love and Redemption were involved in this? Or it has similar vibes to them? Either way I loved both of those dramas so I am hopeful for this one
I'm only on the opening credits but, god, look at him. He's so good at looking tortured and pretty
Oh no I am having traumatic Heroes flashbacks. Hopefully this will be less sad.
He always looks so good when he's getting whumped and I'm glad whoever made this realised that
God to love a drama that starts with an establishing backstory
At 17 I was still in school and had no idea what to do with my life
Very much enjoying this dramatic boat fight
Oh no has he been poisoned? That's fighting dirty!
7 minutes into the first episode and he's spitting blood. That might be a new record for him
Flashfoward 10 years and Cheng Yi is now a doctor and apparently mpreg is a thing
I love his doggo already
I'm assuming there's a reason he's wearing this mask beyond The Aesthetic
Lady, it is rude to just rip a dude's mask off without his consent
Ah, that's why he was wearing the mask. He wanted to be a cop so badly he went to cop school undercover
Well, Zeng Shunxi does have experience playing the only heir to a wealthy family whose parents don't approve of the line of work he's gone into
Not sure that's true given Li Xiangyi 'died' 10 years ago when Zeng Shunxi will have been about 10
God, you can see why he was cast as Wu Xie
Ehehe! I knew he was lying
God, he's so cute
I love that they keep cutting to random shots of the dog. The editor clearly knows what's important
Yes, good. He's already vowing to marry Li Xiangyi
Wow they literally just met
Congrats you now have a sugar baby
Yep. Cool.
Aww they were getting along so well and then Li Xiangyi drugged him and told him he was a useless detective
Well, he brought the dead back to life so I guess Fang Duobing has to marry him now
I really hope that he actually said that
Yes, please do slam him into a tree and then feel him up
YAY! Soon they will solve crime together
That was a lot of fun. I'm not used to seeing Cheng Yi in a more comedic role. I'm used to him being all stoic and pining
