Who does Mingtai like?

I started watching The Pretender after Nirvana in Fire and just finished chasing it. I have not read the novel, so I cannot comment on the characters in the novel, nor do I use the characters and plot in the novel as the basis for my judgment. Just judging from the TV, I think Mingtai should still love Yu Manli.

The first is the edge of the eyes. At least Yu Manli looks likeable. In the words of the eldest sister, she is a good child at first glance (of course, a good child does not only refer to appearance, but also an affirmation of character. The eldest sister's judgment is still very accurate). In the words of Madman Wang, she is a beauty. Young Master Mingtai was stunned when he saw Yu Manli for the first time (I have to admit that Song MM's scene is very beautiful). As a young man from a wealthy family in Shanghai, Master Ming has probably seen a lot of beautiful women. To be able to look at her like this shows that Yu Manli's appearance is quite lethal to Master Ming. Good looks can make people desire. Desire is not love but it is the basis of love. It is also very important, especially some desires are quite beautiful.

The second is getting along. During the long, boring and hard years of the military academy, in the army where even the sight of an old sow makes you feel pretty and beautiful, you have a good partner who gets along day and night, and she is as beautiful as a flower, so any normal man will have feelings for her, or It is said that the sprout of love will take root in this environment. In particular, military academies are abstinent, unlike Huahua World, where desires sometimes become stronger the more they are suppressed. Of course, this is a bit vulgar.

In Chongqing, Yu Manli abandoned Mingtai. Mingtai felt the taste of betrayal for the first time, but he soon found Yu Manli back. Mingtai is kind. He knows what it means to go back alone after losing his partner, but he not only lets Yu Manli go, but also helps her get rid of the agents who are following her. He sacrifices himself to help others. He told Yu Manli "don't look back", which was actually telling Yu Manli not to think about herself. Because there was no need for Manli to look back when Lao Wang and the military academy came to her. Is there any other reason why Yu Manli wants to look back, apart from him showing up? ! Why should he remind Manli not to worry about him? Unless he already has a sense of the relationship and friendship between the two. Later, when Mingtai left the military academy, Yu Manli also told Mingtai not to look back. In fact, she also told Mingtai not to think about herself. The problem is, a kind person meets another kind person, and Yu Manli comes back, not for Lao Wang, not for the military academy, but for him, to repay his kindness. She knew that he had exchanged his life for her freedom. When she came back, she gave me peaches and gave me Qiong Yao. It was one life for another, and the two lives were completely intertwined into one. The scene where the two reunited can be said to be the most beautiful scene in the show. They stood looking at each other, smiling innocently, and their silent gaze seemed to resolve all misunderstandings, and time stopped. Especially MM Song’s shallow smile, clean and refined. I remember there is a sentence in "The Peacock Flies Southeast", "I know it is an old friend coming", I think it should be like this. This kind of scene is more refreshing and touching than the spinning kiss and the like.

Moreover, life and death partners. When Mingtai left the military academy and the two said goodbye, Mingtai avoided Yu Manli's kiss, which showed that he obviously did not accept the relationship. But when he turned around, he kissed Manli's forehead, and that affectionate look didn't seem like a simple return of apology and friendship. If it was a purely friendship relationship, in fact, with an open mind, it would be unlikely to make such an ambiguous move. Later, Manli asked Mingtai, if you don't love me, why didn't you tell me earlier. Mingtai answered yes, because we are partners in life and death. So the life and death partner became the excuse for all ambiguities. But the problem is that Madman Wang has already told Mingtai, asking him not to give Yu Manli any illusions. If Mingtai really didn't care about Yu Manli, he could tell Yu Manli directly or tactfully. But he has never said so. Is it because he can't say it or because he doesn't want to say it? Madman Wang warned Mingtai many times not to fall in love with Yu Manli, and Mingtai stated that his kindness to her was out of gay friendship and patriotism. But I feel that an old fox like Lao Wang who understands human nature will not give many warnings and reminders for no reason.

What is a life and death partner? ! Being a life and death partner first means that you have absolute trust and loyalty to the other party, but trust and loyalty are actually feelings. Trust and loyalty cannot be established out of thin air, so two people have to encounter parting and reunion, sacrifice and fulfillment, restraint and running-in, just like falling in love. This bond of trust and loyalty will make two people very, very close in their hearts, closer than ordinary friends. Such a close relationship, and no blood relationship, could it be just a simple friendship? ! I think it's generally unlikely. Because it is impossible for you not to desire her (possess and be possessed) in daily contact with her. Desire, trust, and loyalty become love. Unless Mingtai has no desire for Manli at all.

What really eliminated or suppressed Mingtai's desire for Manli was Yu Manli's past. As a partner, you don't need to mind the past, but as a lover, you will definitely mind, and the more you like it, the more you will mind. Of course, if you like someone to a certain extent, you can be tolerant, but tolerance and acceptance do not mean that there is no grudge in your heart. Mingtai should have always cared about it. Why did Crazy Wang choose Yu Manli as Mingtai’s partner? Because he was sure that Mingtai would restrain and become a life-or-death partner with her because he fell in love with Manli, and he was also sure that Mingtai would not go off the rails emotionally because of Manli's past. Madman Wang said that if an agent is ruthless, he will die if he has love. He cannot let Mingtai die prematurely.

If it were another female agent with innocent wealth and pretty appearance, I'm afraid it would be hard to say. Maybe it would be really good. How can you and I die smoothly? !

Finally, wedding photos. Does Mingtai really have no desire for Manli? It would be strange not to have one! When she was knocked unconscious by Wang Manchun, Yu Manli in the dream was nestling next to Mingtai. The two were taking wedding photos, and Yu Manli and Mingtai in the dream were looking at her quietly, Qian Qian Smile and nod slightly, so peaceful and happy. The scenes that appeared in Mingtai's dream should all be the happiest and peaceful moments in his memory, namely, taking wedding photos with Manli, Adjutant Guo taking photos of himself, spinning around with Cheng while chewing each other, and reuniting with his family, Listening to the teachings of Teacher Wang who has not become a traitor. So this wedding photo taken with Yu Manli is the happiest moment in his memory with Yu Manli. Note that this moment is not about training together, fighting together, fighting together, or even being in the military academy together, but Yu Manli's willfulness. In fact, deep down in his heart, he didn't want to put a wedding dress on Yu Manli! ?

As a professional photographer, Adjutant Guo said that the funny wedding photos taken by Mingtai and Yu Manli were "very good". Yu Manli also thought that the photos were "very good". At first, only Mingtai felt that this photo was taken. Funny photos are not taken in a dignified way and are not good. So, if it's really good, what's so good about it? It's not just that I caught the two people's helpless expressions at that moment, but the harmony and harmony between them behind the helpless expressions. This harmonious pairing is not simply about the appearance of a man and a talented woman, but the love between the two people that can still be revealed in the photos even if they are helpless. As the saying goes, it is impossible to take really good wedding photos without true feelings, but if you have true feelings, no matter how you take them, you will be able to take good wedding photos. What you take is about love, not style. It was not until later, when Yu Manli died and the Mingtai who had lost Yu Manli came to look at this wedding photo again, that he could face this feeling frankly, admit that this woman was right for him, and admit this The woman's position in her heart admitted that "the photo was taken really well."
