I have just finished it and I am truly gutted. We knew this is coming, but in all the details , this is horrific.
XM's saying "I never liked you" to OC is so heart-breaking. And the thing is, a couple of time she really gives away that she is not telling the truth (she looks away when talking, she says "EVERYTHING I said that night were lies") but he doesn't pick up on this. ** weeps **
I want LX to be happy too. I am not as crossed with him as I was before I started watching "Shanghai Bund", but oh my! The boy needs someone to love him.
And the thing is, a couple of time she really gives away that she is not telling the truth (she looks away when talking, she says "EVERYTHING I said that night were lies") but he doesn't pick up on this. ** weeps ** Yes. This. I can totally see why she doesn't want to say explicitly "well, I said I didn't love you but I did back then. But I don't any more since I moved on" especially to a guy who clearly is still fixated on her but she does give away the truth - I can see why he doesn't notice. (One little thing that really got me in their present-day confrontation is that he is all mad at her and everything but even though he's doubled up in pain, he gives her his jacket so she won't get wet, even though he thinks she needs it to run away and not come back. Awwwww

(Aside from writing horrifyingly emo fic, I mean. The worst is that I think I could like this drama if they scripted it with a lighter hand, but it's like all the cliches are retained and I need details to work with in fic but can't actually bear to watch more than 10 minutes argh argh argh.)
