Dude they’re the side couple. Why should they bring them up? This isn’t their story. Yall are getting so annoying w this.
it's common to complete the main couple lore first before the side couple lol. And if you check her acc you will find this tweet : https://x.com/i/status/2061004815136932208 (she's talking about planning jinjian after the main couple, like just be patient bruh)
You see these are side stories not the main one. Usually authors bring back side couples in the side stories. And unlike other stories this one was a murder mystery that ended with another mysterious death(jian's- he's alive hopefully). After looking at the tweet I'm hopeful. To some extent after a certain phase the side couple made more impact on me. Yes I too don't expect them exclusively in the main story(not to mention they're already there) but an author's note on the story's end might have been nice. Now I'm not demanding something here as we all are reading this pirated copies.
Wasted 7 weeks/ episodes hoping to see jian and author didn't even bother to bring him up. I hope there's another story for them.
