A goddess descends to save the world, but she stays to stand beside one broken man.
The romance between the deeply scarred and the deeply loyal 🥺🫂. Ji Tan Yin is a goddess sent to save the world, yet she chooses, again and again, to stand beside one broken man. Yuan Zhong isn’t just wounded; he’s been fractured beyond recognition, so hollowed out by betrayal. A man like that has no reason to love the world. And yet… he will. And that alone is brave. (I really like how this comment sums it too: "She turned an atheist into a pious believer."). [Skip »]
She continues:
Ji Tan Yin, our FL – I love her 👩💻🛠! She's both naive and wise. She is the goddess of craft and has the mind of an engineer. She's always approaching problems with logic, clarity, and practicality. Even the way she vents her frustration is productive. What truly defines her though is her steadfastness. Her grand declarations didn't sway Yuan Zhong nor did her powers, but it was her unwavering presence. The kind that doesn't flinch no matter what. [Skip »]
Yuan Zhong, our broken ML – he's got a cursed hand he never asked for… and a saving hand he never let go 🥹🫱. He's betrayed by people he trusted most, discarded, imprisoned, driven to madness and numbness. But then Ji Tan Yin walks straight in ~ She's the practical one and he's the philosophical, emotional one. [Skip »]
Playing house was such a pleasant arc 👶🏻🍜. Their domesticity is a comfort. She'd work and he'd babysit. They'd have noodles for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and neither were ever tired of it. [Skip »]
Bonus screenshots that may be spoilery 🦹🏻♀️🦹🏻♂️. Long live the weapon spirits! And our CP matches in many ways. [Skip »]

Overview and Review
Their hugs ~ Each hug is tighter, embracing each other like they're trying to hold the world together 🫠
The romcom drew me in. Particularly, Ji Tan Yin. She had me laughing out loud at her unintentionally romantic, constantly issuing commands that sound like love confessions. She reminded me of Dongfang Qing Cang, if he were an angel with a hammer (or a certain vegetable) in her hand and a to-do list in her heart 😂 [Skip »]
Lines from Ep1-4:
Him: You don't know how to cook so why must you insist and make us suffer?Her: Because I need to be your maidHim: But you are my maid already.Her: This is different. Before, I only planned to be your maid temporarily, but now, I need to follow you forever 一輩子, so of course, I have to be accountable for my job.Him (coughs): Life is long, don't throw around "forever" so casually.Her: I'm different. If I say something, I must do it. I promised you forever, and forever it will be.Him: If you keeping cooking like this, forget forever, just three days and I'll be ascending.
Her vows in applying to be his maid. 😂
– I have sworn to stay by your side for a lifetime, until the day you take your final breath and depart this world.– I promise to accompany you, care for you, and protect you in the days you have left. I will never interfere with your choices, nor will I ever do anything that harms you.– But you must promise me three things.
 |
| His face |
– First, you must never leave me. No matter where you go, I will follow like the shadow is to the body – inseparable. No matter what happens to you, no matter what you face, even if the heavens shatter and the mountains crumble, we must stay together.– Second, don’t ask too much about my past. I won’t tell you everything. It’s better for you that way. Some things are dictated by fate. You cannot change them so you might as well accept them.– Third… it likely won’t come to that. Just remember the first two.

The times she died 😂
And she's always troubleshooting if her murderer is worth saving.
She's divinely, and hilariously grounded, venting her frustration productively
Yuan Zhong, our broken ML – he's got a cursed hand he never asked for… and a saving hand he never let go 🥹🫱. He's betrayed by people he trusted most, discarded, imprisoned, driven to madness and numbness.

Their "dark side" 😂
Gotta applaud Liu Xue Yi for taking his evil scene so seriously. Nothing was helping him, no special effects. it was simply intense monologue to furniture LOL. Wish he had the help of a leek too, haha.
