they're perfect for each other, dumb and dumber. the evil stepmother didn't even have to try hard for them to not only let 13 years pass but hurt each other in the most reprehensible ways possible. like i didn't forget that :
1. she had to marry him while he was acting as his brother bc of her cousin, her "good sister" bc she didn't want to marry jiamu. like she's the most to blame for having recorded her love letter and exposed it to jiamu's mother bc she had no backbone.
2. he raped her and physically assaulted her multiple times
3. she thought asking for sexual favors and passing for a slut was better than confessing her stupid 13 years crush on him, bc noooo she just couldn't in that situation, as if she wouldn't sivorce jiamu as soon as he woke up bc they don't like each other.
4. jiamu isn't any better, i reckon he knew full well that his brother and fl liked each other but he's an absolute dumb fucking ass and fucked up multiple times.
5. jiamu is as incapable in his love life as the others, he "bought" his crush again just to vent instead of telling her the truth about his accident
6. the mom is an absolute psycho, her son doesn't even like fl and all she needed to go full psycho was one singular audio from that dumbass cousin
not one character is redeemable, they're all as dumb as the other and none of them deserve a happy ending bc they're all reprehensible bitchass that made other and thenselves suffer to protect their feelings bc love is more important than basic integrity ig
they deserve to never have closure and stay in the dark forever and yk what, evil stepmother should just succed with her stupid plans that would be so easily reseolved if the others were capable of having a one-on-one conversation for once
can we stop the stupid lack of conversation and honesty? bc they're hiding important stuff from each other, both of them.
like "idk how to tell you, but your ex's company is trying to aquire your company bc of me haha. my brother is the investor and he wants to bring me home bc i cur contact with my family to enter the entertainment industry" and "my ex is blackmailing me with a video of him forcefully kissing him (aka sexual assault) into faking a relationship, so don't believe his taunting comments"
it's that fucking simple
