RECAP:
Episode 1:
the ML (tao junran) had witnessed his dad die when he was just 8 years old
so our FL (fanfan) cant cry since childhood and lian qi starts hitting on her right from the start
but then our leads meet in a unique way as usual
what? lian qi is dead????!!! umm okay…. twist and he was burnt (no evidence)
aand seems like they need to shed “blue” tears for some reason… and our fan cant cry but later she explains it to him and the plotline – she owes him money
but she is a witty girl. so, she dives and takes a turtule to survive… she can stay in water for an hour and tao has been keeping an eye on her
fanfan bought a new boat but looks like it was the boat in which lian qi died
Episode 2:
fanfan is asked to report at the tao mansion everyday… and she cant sleep without the flute? (the flute must be smt important.. it is also a broken half flute so who has the other half? tao? lian qi?)
tao asks fan to clean the mansion for 10 days then he’ll let her go
she sells his stuff and makes money and gets caught… later she gets kidnapped
also, her dad is weird… he’s crazy but he seems to know something
shit fanfan is kidnapped by lian qi??!!! he keeps saying he has to take her back home wtf is wrong with him tao saves her later
Episode 3:
she keeps getting in trouble and he keeps saving her finding more evidence about the lian qi case
she even almost gets raped by a con doctor and he saves her
he gives her a mask and wakes up to clear skin… i wish there was a mask like that irl it would be sold out in just an hour
to repay him she says she’ll marry him woahh i worship her !!!
Episode 4:
she brings peaches to him Lmao in this centuary- peaches have a diff meaning so im laughing
he shoos her away :(( later she crossdresses as a man to find a job… ooops i knew it a girl is hitting on her now aand even more trouble, lord tao comes there
he forces her to leave the boat the next day…. she helps her buddy to woo miss cherry which fails. so she befriends him to follow her
tao puts cherry in fan’s boat to monitor her.
Episode 5:
she doesnt put effort in her boat’s food and her first customer is tao he pays for it even tho he knows its not great…
cherry gets mad and asks to resign but, he forces her to bear with it
laterthey take a spoilt brat called lady yun in the boat. she likes tao but she gets regected by him. this incident also brings cherry and fanfan closer
fan enters a game for choosing the best boat and wins… she gets bullied cuz everyone says she won due to her connections with tao
Episode 6:
lady yun comes to fan’s boat and wants to book. ahh as expected she came to ask about her and tao
OMG what a bitch… i HATE this lady yun . she kills people just to make their son cry and doesnt even care about it cuz they are azurelander (they killed tao’s parents so its his weak point)
and now she wants to kill our fanfan but she escapes by jumping into the river and she starts crying (blue tears) so she is an azurelander too
oooooo tao aldready likes fan and that explains why he did all that for her. he is trying to bring justice for her
