I don't think Ilay would have understood even if Tay tried to explain and also there was no time, Xinlu was going to escape with his brother and it is not the matter Tay trust Xinlu or not, he was only thinking of this brother.
you just said exactly what I was thinking, like instead of not saying anything, Tae could've at least just said "I need to save my brother" or better yet, get Ilay to help !!!
i get that he had no time but like he has to work with two insane person, one that has feelings towards him and one who told him he would kill him if he don’t end up with him. at that point you have to choose the minor evil, which is the insane persone that at least has feelings for you. For all Taeui knows Xinlu could’ve already sold his brother, with Ilay he would’ve had more chances of saving him in my opinion. plus the fact he didn’t explain himself is making me so mad like Ilay spoke to him why the fuck didn’t Taeui say nothing???? i’m so pissed.
FR!!!! i’m so pissed rn.
like the lack of communication is getting to me
And honestly, even in the novel that whole part seems to be so forced, clearly just to give that bullshit misunderstanding and to give a room for that later rape again... kinda pathetic and seriously unnecessary...
Exactly, it was clearly just to give rape once again at the end of the story, because basically, this is exactly the end of Passion novel part... this is why even if I read all novels, I don't consider this story as a romance one, I was more focused on the non relationship aspects
exactly my thoughts. author wants to do the final rape scene, so fucking unnecessary after all what they’ve been through. we’re 136 chapters in, rape was showed even when Taeui was somewhat consensual, i think we should’ve been done with that. so disappointed in this.
FR it’s killing me after 136 chapters
Unfortunately, rape in general is a 'thing' in Korea, also because of the specific rape culture and the concept of consent in Asia, not always, but I have noticed that many authors use this card as a momentary angst, what just proves low writing skills, and basically on that rape main Passion part is ending... kinda sad, this us why I'm not a fan of this series when we're talking about 'relationship' part
…this chapters (136) is one of the worst chapters of this story. Taeui could’ve briefly explained himself to Ilay instead of just running away, plus deciding to follow Xinlu is so stupid like if there’s one person in the world who could save your brother is Ilay, how can you trust Xinlu more? i get that Xinlu made it sound like he was the only one who could save taeui’s brother but how can we trust him blindly and chose him over fucking Ilay??? 135 chapters of “Ilay’s so strong and inhumane he could kill an army” but you get Xinlu help for finding one person?? the one who would’ve killed you and skin you just for not wanting him?? and i got a spoiler that Ilay will get revenge on Taeui cause he thinks he betrayed him (totally understandable cause Taeui didn’t say shit to him, he just ran towards Xinlu) and will rape him… like why the fuck do we have to get there again after so long? totally avoidable. so disappointed in this chapter which i impatiently waited for so long…..
