So Lakan isn’t as much of an ass as he was initially presented as. This episode was a bit of a difficult watch, Feng Xian clearly didn’t want to be bought out but once the bid reached too high to turn down she challenged Lakan hoping to get him to buy her instead. What an awful position for her to be in, before she was just a tragic backstory for our protagonist but now she’s a character who I felt sympathy for and hoped things would turn out better even knowing they won’t.

It’s really incredible how everything slowly comes together in this show, I imagine I’d enjoy it a lot more if I binged it instead of watching weekly cause there’s some stuff that I forget from previous episodes.
