In the story of "The Legend of Cheng Huan", the relationship between Mak Chenghuan and Yao Zhiming gradually underwent subtle changes. At first, Yao Zhiming was Mak Chenghuan's boss, and every word he said was an order that Mak Chenghuan had to follow. However, when the feelings in his heart grew quietly, Yao Zhiming began to change, no longer calling Mai Chenghuan at will, but silently supporting her behind her back.
In the latest plot reveal, Yao Zhiming learned that his partner was unkind to Mai Chenghuan, and he firmly stood up to defend her, indicating his attitude: "Xing'anli and Mai Chenghuan are treasures in my heart, and I will not allow anyone to hurt them." When Mai Chenghuan was in trouble, Yao Zhiming did not hesitate to lend a hand, but she just said lightly that she owed him again. Yao Zhiming's answer was a little affectionate: "You owe me once, I owe you once, so that we will never be separated." In these words, he does not want to be separated from Mai Chenghuan.
However, Mak Chenghuan did not seem to give a positive response to Yao Zhiming's overtures. Why? Perhaps, there are several reasons for this. First of all, Yao Zhiming's first impression on Mak Chenghuan was not so good, and he even used her to conduct business negotiations. This makes Mai Chenghuan suspicious of Yao Zhiming and difficult to fully trust. Secondly, Mak Chenghuan worries that Yao Zhiming may have approached her just for the hotel cluster in Xing'anli, after all, he had shown a strong interest in Xing'anli. Moreover, Mak Chenghuan is a person who likes to dominate in relationships, and she needs time to confirm her feelings, and she also needs to figure out Yao Zhiming's true intentions.
In addition, Mak Chenghuan has always regarded Yao Zhiming as a relative, and she may not realize that Yao Zhiming's feelings for her have gone beyond the scope of family affection. At the same time, she is responsible for managing the hotel complex in Xing'anli, and her busy work also makes her have no time to think too much about her personal emotional life.
I very much appreciate the delicate and real way of dealing with emotions in "Cheng Huan Ji". It is different from the sudden love in some TV series, but allows the audience to see the natural and reasonable development of feelings. I look forward to Mai Chenghuan and Yao Zhiming finally coming together, although the process may be slower, but this kind of love is more worth cherishing and recalling. What do you think about the development of their relationship?
