Hua Cheng is playing on words here, wanting to be called "San Lang" by Lian: in old Chinese, women used "- Lang" as pet name for their Husband/lover. Think the old word "Beau": It is both a name and a way to refer to a male significant other. Meaning: Xie Lian can think Hua Cheng just wants to keep low profile, or that he doesn't like his "Hua Cheng" alias, and thus wants to keep the name "San Lang" (where Beau=name) OR Xie Lian might realise Hua Cheng is being cheeky/flirty, wanting to be called by a word that essentially means "my dear/lover" by Xie Lian. (Here Beau=male suitor)
On the ugliness of Hua Cheng: He got mistreated as a kid by everyone around him, and was told he was ugly and awful (due to things that would be a spoiler). That is how he still sees himself compared to Xie Lian: As an ugly dirty streetrat.
Am I the only one that felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest when Xie Lian realized that San Lang had left him? The fact that he left his ring behind and placed it around Xie Lian's neck made me both happy and sad. Its like an unspoken promise of marriage between the two of them. Also the song choice and the flash back of their time together... it made me tear up. I can't wait to see your reaction to season 2.
I’ll be waiting for the S2 reaction! An idea for another show to react to is Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation (MDZS), which has 3 seasons and is already completed. The novel was written by the same author as HOB. It's really good (and popular) and I think you'll really like it. Thanks 😊
Yay! Another fun reaction. Pretty much everyone says the title wrong at first lol. The theme of "there's no real correct answer" is pretty prevalent in this series, I find it really interesting how many ways they explore it. I look forward to your season 2 reactions!
yep, next season you get to see him in his "full glory"

You just HAVE to watch Season 2 in dub the VA for Hua Cheng is so good, he has the best lines, and he has great chemistry with Xie Lian's VA
Ur right. Rlly the only difference between his “fake” and true form is that in one he’s a pretty boy and in the other he’s a zaddy.
