[Storyline Short Recap] The Mystic Nine Ep. 29-32

19

This week’s four episodes were focused on our Ba Ye and Lieutenant. As both Fo Ye and Er Ye are sick and Xinyue has to go back home, we don’t get much of the usual OTP scenes. Since I was a bit more busy today (school registration problems.. anyhow), here is a quick recap over the episodes so you can at least understand what was said. 😉

Drama information:

  • Total of 48 episodes
  • Chinese name: 老九门
  • Release schedule: Two episodes per day on Monday and Tuesday
  • Find the episodes as they get released on iQiYi: here
  • You can watch with eng sub on viki: here (under the name Old Nine Door) ; I also think there is a Lay fansub team on facebook.:)

Episode 29

Xinyue decides to leave with Fo Ye to hide from the murderous trio (Captain Lu/Chen Pi/Ms.Huo) and to find a cure for Fo Ye’s sickness. The right hand man of Fo Ye (we call him Lieutenant in this recap) and Ba Ye are left behind to protect Er Ye and hide the disappearance of Fo Ye.

3 7

When Captain Lu hears that Fo Ye successfully escaped Changsha, he is furious! He decides on an unprepared trip to the mine and forces Er Ye to join them. In the mine, Ms.Huo forestall their attention and help Er Ye to escape Captain Lu’s controle. Er Ye thanks her, but says he still cannot accept her feelings.

Er Ye goes to Ba Ye’s house and Ba Ye brag that his house is so safe the bad guys will not think of coming here… Yeah, the bad guys are so stupid they can’t even predict that their prisoner went to hide at his only ally in the city. ._. Also, this awesome plan of using Ms.Huo was planned out by Fo Ye before he left. Anyhow, since Er Ye is still very sick, it is decided that Ba Ye and Lieutenant will start on a trip to find Fo Ye first and Er Ye, after getting better, will join them. Ms. Huo offers to take care of Er Ye in the meantime.

Our duo disguise as beggars to get information about Fo Ye. Lieutenant is especially suspicious of others. They meet a fat guy at a hide out and becomes friend with him. They talk about the whereabout of Fo Ye and discovers all kind of divergent gossips. Ba Ye suspects that these news are all false and are created by Xinyue to misguide the bad guys. The fat guy recommend them to go work for a person who is known for knowing a lot of information in town and is powerful. Lieutenant impresses with his archery skills and they get hired. Turns out the first task is to accompany the kid of the Da Tu Si where his life will be offering.

In the meantime, Fo Ye is still unconscious and is taken care of by cousin/doctor.

Episode 30

Turns out that in the little group there are a lot assassins that came to kill Da Tu Si (a lady priest kind of character). Basically, the Black Tribute wants the White Tribute led by Da Tu Si to be dead. After fighting, they decide to stick with the group because Da Tu Si may have information about Fo Ye.

4 5

In the meantime, at Changsha, Er Ye decides to leave to find Fo Ye too and Ms.Huo decides that she must come with him. Chen Pi gets suscpicious and think that Ms.Huo is the one who helped Er Ye to escape, but Captain Lu tells him to stay calm.

1

After many events, thanks to Ba Ye, our little group survives the attack of the Black tribute. Especially, at night, when the Black people attacked again, Ba Ye used tricks to scare them away.

Episode 31

While in the prairie, Da Tu Si is once again attacked by assassins. Seeing this, Er Ye immediately stops them (and also her as she has tries to kill herself thinking he is a Han person). Er Ye saves her in his dramatic fashion and then pukes blood out. Turns out he is still very sick, but chose to come ahead to make sure Ba Ye and Lieutenant are fine.

2 19

Ms.Huo arrives and immediately caters to Er Ye’s demands. Meanwhile, Da Tu Si seeing her mistakes and understanding that Er Ye is a nice guy falls deeply in love with him *cue to cute music*. Later, Er Ye tells Ms.Huo to leave since he does not want to make her fall in love with him and he still loves Ya Tou. Ms.Huo leaves after a debate with Lieutenant over the way she treats Fo Ye.

22

After Da Tu Si thanks them for their help and tells our duo where Fo Ye is, Ba Ye and Lieutenant leaves. Er Ye stays by Da Tu Si’s side so she can cure him. She gives him her precious medicine which makes him feel a lot better.

23

Episode 32

Ba Ye and Lieutenant arrives to the little town where Fo Ye is hiding. The cousin/doctor announces the bad news.

7

After a few weeks of unconsciousness, Fo Ye woke up to have lost his memory and is acting weirdly. He passes his days drawing and act like mad, being violent from time to time. He seems to only be able to recognize Xinyue’s face. Xinyue went back to her home in hope to find a cure for Fo Ye.

12

They conclude that the sickness must had started at the cave and hence must be the same as Er Ye’s. Knowing that Da Tu Si’s medicine worked wonderfully on Er Ye, the little group decided to go back to find her. The cousin/doctor is especially anxious to learn that Er Ye is still in a poor state (cat fight soon?).

26

Back there, they are happy to see that Er Ye is getting better and also offer the medicine to Fo Ye. However, to get the more powerful medicine, they need to fight the Black Tribute again. They do so and succeed to fight them off this time.

In the meantime, Ms.Huo is back to Changsha. Chen Pi is suspicious of her as she tells them she left to find a Tomb specialist. Captain Lu tries to stay optimist and ass-kiss both of his allies…

Preview

In the preview, we see our little group of Fo Ye, Xinyue, Ba Ye and Lieutenant traveling together as they go find a cure to Fo Ye’s sickness. They go back to Fo Ye’s house, the Zhang household at his hometown. There, they realize that to save Fo Ye, they must sacrifice someone else.. Xinyue decides to get into the dangerous device without a moment of hesitation, to save Fo Ye…

Opinion

Haha, not much OTP scenes this week, but it is not exactly boring. Seeing the girls chaining one after the other to fall in love with Er Ye is kind of funny. It made me realize just how much Er Ye’s role is like Tang Xuanzang (the monk/master in Journey to the West). Good looking and naive, but attracts everyone else’s attention (especially demon girls who fall madly in love with him). In this case, I will say that Fo Ye is Sun Wukong, Ba Ye is Zhu Bajie and Lieutenant is Sha Wujing. This metaphor is especially on topic because these episodes, it is basically arriving to a new land and helping the local people.

It is great to see the blooming bromance between Ba Ye and Lieutenant as their personalities really (unexpectedly) match. They are a wonderful pair and I love how respectful Lieutenant is of Ba Ye, even when he says nonsense. Lieutenant especially wins point for being so darn cute! ❤ Also, I am just happy we are getting away from the bad guys in these episodes. FINALLY!

14 15

On a side note, I noticed that the Lieutenant’s family name is also Zhang, just like Fo Ye. I wonder if everyone in the household adopt the surname of the boss around, or are they related by blood… hum.

The theme song for anyone who missed it!

BTS from the 20 first episodes! Yeah, love this goodie! 😀 Thanks to everyone for sharing these in the comment section of the last post. :3

Finally, ending on a positive note with some Xinyue fanarts!

    My first thought when I realized both heroes were sick:BY THIS YOUR TIME TO SHINE but then he disappointed meit😂😂but I did enjoy the bromance time. Also, didn’t realize how much EY meant to Ms. Huo until this week but he was not having it😂😂 and omg new love interest for EY? Maybe? Anyways, I think episode 32 was the best episode this week(which is sad) and last week too and I found it cute that FY only has eyes for XY. When I saw the preview I was shocked she got into the box hopefully, next week will be better. Hate that its lagging but love the random bromance😘 sidenote: I really liked the big guys earrings

    • Haha, go BA YE!! But then, he becomes his goofy self again. But he did shine pretty hard in these episodes and I got to say, he looks pretty cute and handsome without those glasses. So lesson, don’t buy grandpa glasses everyone!
      Ms.Huo seems like she can give up everything for Er Ye (or she is dumb to think that her going with him really will cause no harm to her relationship with her allieS). Either way, I am happy to see Er Ye refusing her because it would be so out of character if he did. Too bad, but I think she will get matched with Captain Lu soon. episode 32 is the best because we get to see a bit of Fo Ye ❤ Yeah, sucks that in the four episodes period, it always start slow and move fast at the end. Oh well, as long as we get some good scenes I guess..
      Yeah, I am sure nothing bad will happen to Xinyue, but that determination.. You go girl!
      ps; that fat guy did have some swag 😛

    Posted in the previous recap but shall comment here too for discussion /fan girling!
    1. Actually thought it was nice that both Lt Zhang and Ba Ye had some time. FY and EY are humans after all and do get sick and they need their people yo yo help them. It’s nice that they show another side to FY (not just as invincible) and that his friends care so much for him.
    2. How cool was the XY/CP stand off? Love XY – cool, collected, courageous and cute!
    3. Totally agree that although FY has never professed his love for XY, she is the only person he recognizes which shows how important she is to him emotionally when he is clearly trapped within his dreams/nightmares/haunting
    4. lay may not be a great actor but he does carry off that regal, melancholic look well – he is a handsome young man indeed! Am sure he can improve!!
    5. Why no love for Lt Zhang? He climbed that freaking huge tree in record time , buried your kid and saved your life! He just doesn’t wear those long flowy robes like EY!
    6. I think Lt Zhang is family with FY – it was mentioned in the preview but FY doesn’t know. Anyone finds it creepy that his family has no women – they were all men before they were all killed in the flashbacks. Probably explains why he was so determined to not involve XY .
    7. Love that he saved her twice and she also saves him – you go girl!!!
    8. Can we take a moment how well matched FY/XY dressing is in the preview?

    Separately I just started watching Up Idol S1. ZLY is really very frank and funny – seems like she makes few but good friends. Kenny Kwan in particular – they seem to be very close but nobody has ever shipped them? no romantic feel?

    • Yeah! More fangirling!!
      1. Yop, seeing both Fo Ye and Er Ye getting sick felt unusual, but we needed these two sweeties to shine. They are acting great as temporary leads and the bromance was even stronger than between Fo Ye and Er Ye! The acting is good and lieutenent’s ever changing face is hella cute! They still care so much about Fo Ye as their goal is always to get information about him.
      2. Xinyue will not lose to anyone!
      3. Exactly! Xinyue became his number one priority in the time of a few episodes!! I just love that thought… 😀
      4. Lay doesn’t ace all his scene, but that Da Tu Si saving one is really neat. Loved it. Although, I cannot ship him with anyone but Ya Tou!
      5. Haha, I know right! Lieutenant is the real hero here (and so handsome). I will take him if nobody wants! 😦 This cutie better have a good ending.
      6. Yeah, it does feel creepy and the fact that they are from the same family means that lieutenant may tell us some more information later. Hopefully! The no women thing worries me, but maybe that can be a fact to save Xinyue in the upcoming episode…
      7. Couple clothing!! Welcome to your hubby’s home, cutie 😉

      I watched the whole Season 1 of Up Idol and she gets better! She makes good friends of Xie Na, He Jiong, Ouyang Nana and that other girl I forgot the name right now, lol. Anyhow, she opens up a lot more and it is a real treat to watch her in that. She is a really good friend with Kenny Kwan and they filmed two dramas together (Mermaid Legend and Wife’s Lies). I think Kenny was never strongly shipped with her, but they have a really strong friendship in exchange. ❤

    I actually found these last couple episodes (6 or so) really draggy. They could have told the same story in like 2 episodes, but instead they included all these unnecessary filler. I think I preferred the cave scenes. But it will probably get more interesting next week (I hope). It is cute how FoYe can only recognize XinYue <333
    Ms. Huo really gets on my nerves. I personally don't like any of the baddies. I love a good bad character if they are written well, but these baddies are really lacking. I can see why everyone falls for ErYe, he has this I need emotional rescuing look while still looking like a badass.

      I saw fans are going on set for Princess Agents soon.There are lot of pics and clips online of them on set but they are all from far way.
      Yeah, I am sure she dated CX. She guest starred in a lot of his dramas. For her to go out of her way to do that says a lot. They must have had a very nasty breakup so I do feel for her. I hope she finds someone nice. At least she seems happy right now with her dog and friends.

        Saw an old HC episode where Kenny Kwan was on with CX and KK (one of the few) busted CX as not talking to ZLY on the phone coz he and ZLY were messaging each other and CX didn’t know. What seemed obvious is that KK is not a fan of CX and considering how good friends they are (ZLY even went to HK on one of her rare off days to star in his MV!) he must have not been supportive of that relationship. KK is very cute (with his awful Mandarin!) – I do suspect that he bats for the other side though (rumored but never proven) and is ZLY BGF!

        I agree that ZLY going to WC concert would be a difficult situation. Sigh – just appear together somewhere so that we can analyze where they stand with each other!! fangirling !!!

It is funny because they are all “beloved” boys of Yumama (although Chen Xiao is his golden boy), but it is obvious CX and KK doesn’t mix thaaat well. KK is cute and he never fails to show his support and friendship to Liying. ZLY even went to film one of his MV, if you never checked it before 😉

    • I won’t lie, the episodes are far from the exciting moments of episode 12 to 20… Not having OTP moments and especially Zhao Liying makes the show progress a lot slower. I am however happy that here, we get the chance to see some of our second leads good guy evolve into even more likeable people. For sure, if it was not that for the proposing/wedding scene coming up later, I would not be as optimist as I am right now about the show… LOL
      I find cave scenes too dark for my liking, but I agree that the action scenes in them are a lot cooler!
      YEs! FoYe only cares about Xinyue~~ lalala~~

      Hi Dwi, basically Lt Zhang tells her that it is a test for the Zhsng family after BY says that it is very dangerous . She asks if the test is to exchange one life for another and BY remarks that surely it can’t be this way. Lt Zhang just looks downs and XY looks at FY and then goes into the standing coffin. BY asks her what does she think she is doing and the Lt asks her to come out. BY says it’s super dangerous (not too sure about the exact words) and nobody can be sure what will be the outcome. She ask them to take care of her husband and she asks them to remove their hands from the door and closes it. 😦

    @Lizze: bringing over what you asked in the previous gates post, if I’m not wrong, WT confirmed in his interview for Chanel that he was the one who invited/recommended LY for the role. There was an article about it too (not from Chanel) so I’m pretty certain he had something to do with her casting. His company, A-Nac is the production company for gates so it sounds very likely.

    Also, rumors say that they’re planning for a second season with the the same cast, but nothing has been confirmed as to who’s actually returning or if they’re even gonna go through with it. Crossing fingers!!

I don’t think they were dating then in any case as he was fresh off the relationship with Charlene but as I said previously, Friends With Potential!

I think even if WC and ZLY are not dating they are friends. But WC does look a bit naughty, the really mischievous type.

        WC is so unlike FY it’s hilarious 🙂 FY would have helped her first and then possibly laughed quietly in a manly manner!

        Thanks to YT and some super dedicated fans, I watched a fan cam version of the HC episode where ZLY and WC did the dance together and appeared with various other people including Jimmy Lin and GYY. Actually, WC looked quite distracted aside from the moments he was interacting with ZLY (and forever immortalized in FMV!) and even a little awkward. They spoke but it wasn’t constant. Quite different from their next appearance at HC where it was just the three of them from LOZ. He was a lot more at ease there and more playful. Then I looked at the dates and the awkward HC was earlier – prob around the time ore break up with Ah Sa or around then. Which explains his manner and rightly so – one coming out of a 5 year relationship shouldn’t be joyful. That cut where ZLY pulled his hand away and then he put his hand around her shoulder (again immortalized in many FMVs) – in this full fan cam, you can see he took his hand away once he noticed they were next to He Jiong – pretty self conscious WC : probably to avoid tumors although it was obvious that even if they weren’t physical, they were obviously friends and comfortable with each other. ZLY bless her, was unaware, and just pointing and laughing!

        Those awesome fancams ^^ I just watch the FMV bc there are so many. I thought the second HC appearance was filmed on that same day but they just aired cut versions from the previous appearance (?). I think they were really close during LofZ press conferences, the one where she is wearing a black dress. There is this clip of him putting his arm behind her while she talks, really sweet. I also saw a fancam of LofZ filming while they were shooting and he randomly started touching ZLY’s hair while they were waiting to shoot a scene. I have seen comparisons with other co-stars where he usually uses “gentleman hands” in a fist when touching them behind scenes, etc. But I do think they were not dating during LofZ just friends with potential like you said 😉

        @Lizzie: Both LoZ HC appearances were filmed during the same day, just aired at different times. The one with them alone (with the blue sweatpants) were actually filmed before the other guests arrived. The reason why you sensed a difference in WC behavior was probably because the one with them in blue sweatpants (where you said he seemed more relaxed and playful) was filmed with no audience, it was just them and the filming crew and staff (while the other one wasn’t). All the audience cuts in the actual aired version were added afterwards.. heard this was normal practice of HC, lol.

        I believe WC and Ah Sa broke up during the filming of LoZ, which was more or less half a year before his appearance on HC with the LoZ team. He seemed fine during the press conference after the filming and on many other public appearances so I doubt it was because of that. He said in an interview that he was having a tough time during the LoZ filming due to reasons like homesickness *coughtthebreakupcough*, allergies and the pressure of being the lead (first-timer). People had already speculated their breakup around new years before LoZ even started the filming.. but yeah, not sure when they actually broke up, but I do think it was way before they actually announced it (all my thoughts though, definitely NOT facts, lol)

        Speaking of the HC fancams, if you look closely, the part where she took his hand to drag him away from the mattress, she actually let go (notice how her hand opened up from the grip) while you can see his hand tighten around hers to hold on, lol. And it seems to me that both were conscious of the closeness they were showing, she bent over and “laughed” while touching his back with her hand, while he took the oh so obvious route and took one LARGE step away from her, loool.

        Thanks so much for clarifying @EZC! This is what happens when one can’t really read Mandarin and goes in the dates written on YT (one was sept 2015 and the other Jan 2016) 🙂
        That totally explains the difference between WC’s demeanor – I think he doesn’t like to be asked to ask questions. I read somewhere that the comment about their kissing scene was scripted which explains why he was uncomfortable and quickly said it wasn’t him who invited ZLY to the trailer but his mom.

        What I find sweet is that despite everything, it’s quite apparent that they are close. He didn’t really want to join in the dance but then ZLY motioned him to then later he just went and do it anyways! Same for their reaction after the hand-pull (totally agree with your analysis btw), it’s like subconsciously he gravitates towards her and then consciously stops himself to avoid rumors.

        Are the press conferences for LOZ in 2016? Totally agree with you that for the press conferences, he was totally comfortable. ZLY, was, well ZLY 🙂 but more open compared to other press conferences.

        @Lizzie: Yeah, I agree! I especially see the most change in LY when she’s around him.. she just turns so outspoken and playful, especially in events where she’s usually more serious and quiet. He doesn’t act like that around other girls either, especially during filming. You can clearly tell he’s always looking to make her laugh, doing something silly and waiting for her reaction. She said in an interview when asked to describe WC in one word that he was silly and that being silly was his ‘thing’, but then later she added that, “Well, but he won’t show you (the public) that side of him.” .. Hahah, reading that, my fangirling mode went beeping thinking, “did she mean he only shows that side to of him to her and that only she gets to see it?” lool.

        Funny thing is, in an interview with WC (at a later date), he was asked the same thing (or something similiar to that) and he himself said the same–that he was silly. Don’t think I’ve heard him describe himself as such, at least not for the last year or so it’s just funny how they both coincidentally (?) said the same thing (or he read/saw her interview *cough*) 😀 😀

        Definitely in terms of LY – her interviews for Chusen seem like her usual self. Reserved and definitely more awkward. It also seems that she is not that close with the rest of the cast – prob coz YZ and QQJ are acting in another show together so they interact more and also her time on the show is not a lot.

        I think it’s always good to find a man who makes you laugh. Even though from the BTS, you can see she is sometimes rolling her eyes at WC but he perseveres!

        Can see that ZLY takes cues from WC in their public appearances – them pretending not to know each other at the Mystic Nine prayer opening ceremony was probably his idea too!

        @Lizzie: them pretending not to know each other at the Gates opening ceremony was actually a joke. What happened was that someone forgot or didn’t know that WC and LY already knew each other from previous collaborations, so that person went ahead and introduced LY to WC.. and being the dorks that they are, played along and shook hands and introduced themselves to one another all over again, lol. There were a lot of laugher involved XD

        Don’t know if you’ve seen the fancam (from the same opening ceremony) where the actor who plays Ba Ye asked WC about Fo Ye’s body tattoo. I guess LY who was standing right next to WC chimed in and said something, so WC turns to her and goes, “You’ll get a nosebleed [once you see the tattoo/body]”.. The very first scenes they filmed were the bedroom ones with half naked Fo Ye and XY cleaning his wound 🙂

We have seen his cool side the whole time so it is good to see his more vulnerable image too. After he realizes that he is not invincible, he will hopefully understand even more the need of Xinyue and people close to him. Stop gambling your life! And that scene was really nice done, showing that WC can do more than just the cool boy image.
      The relationship of Xinyue and Fo Ye is going in the right direction and I just want the wedding night!!! >< Hope it is not like in the last episodes…
      Yeah, there does seem to be such a rumor. Lay already filmed his special episode so will see if they have enough content for another season with the same cast. I mean, Lost Tomb said the same thing and they didn't film anything since last year…

        @maoh: he pretty much says the same things in his interviews. He talks about how LY helps him a lot during filming when he has issues with his character, how Fo Ye really really likes XY and how her character helps Fo Ye showcase a more ‘humane’ side of him in terms of allowing him to show different emotions, how Fo Ye only smiles when XY is around (which I beg to differ, he smiles plenty with Ba Ye, lol– but he probably meant genuinely?) .. How professional LY is, which I swear, the guy says this so many times it’s like an automatic response, lol. He also says gates is pretty much the first project of his that he watches/monitors when it airs because he typically dislikes watching himself on screen.

        He really loves playing Fo Ye and we all know how much he adores the Qu Ru Mei sign. Just the other day he said when he saw that sign for the very first time at the airport, he wanted to run after the fan and say “I’m Peng San Bien!”‘ hahah.. such a dork that guy,

    • Exactly! In the preview, we see Liying being with Fo Ye all the time so that is good news *_*
      Not sure if it was all media play at the time so take it with a grain of salt, but at the time Liying and Chen Xiao were promoting for Legend of Lu Zheng/Palace and other projects, they were paired by the public for a very long time. during that time, Chen Xiao confessed his love on shows for Liying, but says that they are not dating. Whatever happens, their relationship is too special to be spoiled. Anyhow, because Liying just said to let him be, people bashed her a lot at the time for letting a guy hang under the public eye like that. Of course, now we all know it was media play and Liying is doing more than fine. So, my guess is that these words are probably just for attention OR they really dated.
      Haha, nope it is sadly not your imagination… Cause I wrote a blog post last year about that exact rumor! Seems like Liying fans think alike! ❤

But the dating between them never got confirmed, so strictly speaking, it is Chen Xiao’s “one-side love” toward Liying (especially during the Palace movie promotion behind). But either way, he is married now and Liying possibly has a boyfriend. I am sad as an old shipper, but I guess I have to let them live their lives v_v

    I am soooo angry at today’s episodes that I can’t even wait for Archi’s recaps.. I need to rant!!! What were the editors thinking?! Cutting XY/OTP scenes thinking that nobody’s gonna notice?! She barely appears in drama as is already, why would you cut their scenes short when you know the majority’s tuning in to watch OTP specifically???? The whole saving Fo Ye scenes and XY’s sacrifice scenes are so jumpy and un-climactic thanks to the freaking editors, I don’t even understand why he suddenly woke up–where’s XY’s ‘nightmare’ scene? Where’s the blood transfusion?? Where’s OTP’S KISS?! Because of the cuts, the attempted kiss between OTP felt so out of place.. so now, he’s just gonna suddenly try to kiss her in front of his brothers and she’s just naturally ready for it? They made it seem like that was their first kiss, but their reactions/actions says otherwise.. because guess what? That wasn’t their first kiss! Their first kiss was supposed to happen after they got out of his family’s creepy place but for reasons unknown to practically everyone who’s watching, they decided to cut that out! Urghh I’m so maaaad 😦 😦 😦

    If the production team is smart enough, they should move quickly and do as much damage control as possible (the public is outraged and some are even boycotting the drama).. release the cut scenes PRONTO, or air it with the tv version for all I care, just don’t let OTP’s precious scenes go to waste.

      I was wondering why FY suddenly woke up too! In one of the previews, there was a scene of XY looking around at the tombs (presumably after she went into the coffin) but I didn’t see it here. I thought it was gonna be shown in a flashback because sometimes they show what actually happen in a later part. I was hoping that this would not be the reason that cut XY’s life short because it was some curse on all the women who marry into the Zhang family!

      Actually, I thought the kiss was quite cute 🙂 maybe because my mandarin is basic – I thought he wanted to kiss her because he openly acknowledged that she is Zhang family since they crossed into his ancestral home without any issues. I was gonna say that it looked so natural !!

      Didn’t realize that there was blood transfusion and an earlier kissed when he first came out of his trance. Because he just asked everybody to get out.

      I do hope that there will
      Be some explanation esp since now there is another kissing scene!!

      • Ezc says:

        That’s why it looked so out of place for me–because that attempted kiss looked so natural as if they’ve been kissing each other for years! Now I’m not talking about the WC and LY’s acting, but Fo Ye’s and XY’s relationship. The naturalness of that scene doesn’t really fit well for a scene that they’re trying to pass off as a ‘first’ kiss. XY might’ve been upfront and brazen about her feelings towards Fo Ye, but when you look at the scene where she accidentally saw him half naked, she was still shy about it. So if it’s supposed to be a first kiss between them, shouldn’t she act in a similar fashion? That’s why I’m mad because if they hadn’t cut the actual first kiss, it would’ve made more sense to have Fo Ye attempting to kiss XY again–PDA be damned (because then they could’ve just passed it off as him coming back for seconds and not being able to resist her, lol).

        It’s actually supposed to go like this (from what I gathered): she goes into the coffin and experiences her worst nightmare which is Fo Ye dying.. somehow, that creepy place ‘releases’ her because it recognizes her as a Zhang (aka Fo Ye’s wife).. she gets out, and then comes the blood transfusion scene between the present Fo Ye and the younger Fo Ye (that scene was shown in the trailers). He wakes up and they high tail their butts out of there, with Fo Ye holding XY’s hand and dragging her out with him (also shown in episode teaser). Outside once they’ve settled, there’s supposed to be a conversation between FY and XY (also cut!) which somehow ended with XY giving FY a peck on the lips and then running away. Fo Ye runs after and gives her a REAL kiss and acknowledges that she’s now a Zhang as well, and THEN comes the scene where everyone’s gathered around to talk.

        Now I could be wrong with some of the minor details, but I’m pretty sure the actual first kiss scene was filmed based on Fo Ye’s and XY’s reaction on the attempted kiss. There’s a summary/script going around weibo about the scenes that were missing in the episode.

        In terms of the attempted kiss, WHY did they cut all that out??? No wonder fans who are expecting it are furious! I didn’t know so wasn’t so upset – I thought that FY just wanted to kiss XY because well, he has always had the hots for her and clearly even his ancestral home recognizes her as Zhang family (which means he always has in his heart although not verbally!) And XY was just taken by surprise although they didn’t kiss ultimately. Okay, now we need those scenes!!!

Fo Ye was lost in his past and that was supposed to bring him back to reality.

Probably after FY comes back from the cave with Bei Le Ye because the first time he came back, he was all bloodied and miserable and their relationship was not so intimate for her to be smacking his chest. As you said EZC she was still a bit shy when he too his shirt off to clean the wound so her reaction after his first time back from the cave was appropriate. Gently scolding but not to the extent of major sa jiao.

    someone can read my below summary (sorry if the translation not good) to let know HOW MANY SCENES THEY CUT, really want to burn them -_-

    “After entering the coffin, YX see her evil heart/nightmare, FY who is body-bloody made her pain that doesn’t want to live. But suddenly the bracelet ring out was recalled her spirit, based on FY’s engagement object which help her to escape from a certain death.

    Outside, Ba Ye and Zhang Deputy help FY to the coffin number 83 then stop. Open the lid of the coffin, one person found identical like FY, rosy countenance but no breath, compared to outsider clearly breathing but with white face. Put the two together, Zhang Deputy use a knife to cut hands of the two to do the blood transfusion. Zhang said that because of Zhang Family special artery, through the blood transfusion can restore the spirit, overcome the ghost heart. When the blood stops flowing, FY wounds recovery with rosy countenance, other “FY” splinter and disappear

    At the same time, YX walked out of the coffin with the thought ” I believe he’ll wake up” . FY awake and chase everyone this place should not stay long, quickly go . On the way, YX was bowed with serious countenance and unhappy.

    FY: Rarely seen you that taciturn
    YX: you thought I could not invasive with hundred potion? sometimes I would have unhappy moment.
    FY: Now I’m fine alread, what make you still not happy? Let’s create good memories to replace for the unhappy one.
    YX eyes were shining brilliantly, wicked smile looked at YF: This is what you said
    While FY is still skeptical, YX suddenly kiss him.
    FY was shock with eyes widened, he blink.
    YX just touch his lips slightly and quickly leave.
    YX look shy with flushed cheeks, lip biting with mischievous smile.
    FY touch his lips and stare at YX
    YX: I’m familiar with your aggression cold face always against to me, as well as familiar to look you when in military uniform, your face always looks like an old man, even doesn’t care about the live to enter the coffin, into the battle, but whatever you want to do, I will always pray at your side and keep awaiting for you.
    YX look at non-demonstration of FY, her heart was lost.
    YX: Aiya, anyway we kiss already, you are mime, let’s get married, ok?
    YX widen her eyes and expect to look at FY
    FY: I used to see the death from childhood, this life I don’t intend to implicate other, live or die doesn’t mind to face alone…
    YX: I don’t want to listen, do not talk anymore …
    YX suddenly cover his mouth, she look at FY with tears in her eyes.
    YX: I don’t want to hear you refuse me again, you ejected me many times already …
    TN slowly let go, turned around and wanted to leave.
    immediately FY hold her back by one hand, embraced her tightly and was hegemony to kiss her

    Then go to the scene of the talking, that’s why the almost kissing looks so natural, doesn’t look like their first kiss.”

      Thank you so much for translating. I saw a clip of the later part so there is hope everything is included. I really hope they include the part where XY kisses him first, etc. I dont understand why they cut it out and why they removed the part where she is in the coffin.
      I hope we get to see everything in a flashback.

    Omgg, I just saw that scene in a teaser for next week’s episode!!! No idea why they changed the freaking order since it makes absolutely no sense (because today’s episode shows them being home), maybe they’re turning it into a flashback or whatever.. But gaaaaaah! That scene isn’t gone!

      Yay!! I am waiting for ep 35 and 36 to load on the website I use to watch 🙂

      In the BTS, it is very cute to see how WC is trying to keep in character as FY but failing and end up smiling at ZLY almost all the time – probably to make up for his FYness with her 🙂

        no wonder liying loves working with WC, it seems like she’s working well with Lin Gengxin too if their weibo posts are anything to go by. I’ve been wondering what’s happening there

        What’s going on with LGX and ZLY? Do share if you have a minute 🙂 WC – do something!!

        Watching ep 35 now – the scene which was giffed was not cut – it’s there but just a different variation. Watch it! So it seems like ZLY and WC tried a few permutations before deciding what they wanted to do 🙂

        I think ZLY and Lin Gengxin are good friends they were joking around yesterday on weibo. I also feel like Princess Agents has a really friendly/good working environment, which makes me very happy. Coming from Chusen where everything just felt tense, I am glad she has another good working environment.

  11. @Lizzie A Nac studio (WC managing company) just is one of the producers so i dont think they have too much right with the editing 😒

    @EZC really ? So they will show it as a flashback in the next eps? grru anyway i dont dont like this….why they dont broadcast as it should be happened at the time and cut just to put it in a flashback ? Doesnt make sense …ahhhh that kiss I want to seeeee 😣😣😣😣😣

    I agree that the cut is out of place and even in flashback it would be kind of weird, but at least now we get to see it. I just hope they keep the part where she kisses him first since it sounds really cute.
    Maybe all the complaints made them include it again.

  13. @Lizzie that is their interaction on weibo, LGX buy food and deliver to LY, Then she post that food with a pic of LGX as deliver on her weibo to say thank, later LGX share her post then they comment to each other

    Yay! After the explosion of the change profile pic i dont think WC and LY will never interact public anymore….huhm sad sad!

    Okey, just watch the trailer of 38 with that expected kissing *really hot* LOl 🙈seem all cut scenes will be shown on ep 37-38 but dunno how they edit to match the flew

      Thanks Sharon! Does sound like ZLY and LGX get along so happy for her!

      Re the cut scenes, perhaps they are not? Judging from the trailer, it is set in a hut where the White Clan people live and they are sitting down (not walking away after exiting the Zhang family ancestral home) so perhaps the script was tweaked ? I have hope!
