Ships in The Bond

Okay, so I've been LOVING all the sibling relationships in this drama. Everything was so heartwarming, realistic and adorable. The transitions as they grow up are also wonderful.

And now the romance element has begun. Still not sure about the couples but romantic hints radiate from 

1. The eldest (Yicheng) and the girl he's tutoring - Am I the only one a little uncomfortable with this? He always seems like such a different person when he's tutoring her. I liked the girl a little more after I saw her story, but Yicheng really has one hell of a life ? I don't know how to feel.

2. The Romeo and Juliet story of the youngest(Simei) and the troublemaker kid ?-  I know it ended but the whole time I watched that segment, I had a big question mark on my face. I had no idea what was going on and when Simei started talking like a woman who has just lost her husband of ten years, I nearly lost it.

3. WHAT is going on with the second bro(Erqiang) and his mentor? I was so totally weirded out! I know it's one-sided, but STILL!

4. The cousin and Qiqi's tutor's younger sister - this, by far, is the most shippable ship I've encountered. 

All this has made me seriously doubt the writers' romance-writing capabilities. Everything was going on so comfortably till Episode 5 and its bumps.

What do you all think about the ships here?

@ vivi isnt qiqi's younger sister simei so which one and the cousin are you actually talking about 

@blossoms Oops! I made a mistake... Qiqi's TUTOR's younger sister ?

And do you mean "both women YICHENG" dated? Because I like Erqiang's wife 

 blossoms:

wasn't true to erqiang

Just finished watching Episode 19, and I'm not sure how to feel about her now. The good thing is that she's pushing herself away from the Director, but he seems to be forcing himself on her. The bad thing is that both of them still won't come clean and even Erqiang isn't true to Xiaomo ? He just won't let go of his Master.

Only up to episode 16. Do Wei Min and Xing Yu get more scenes together? Is Erqiang fully over his master now and dating someone else?

They really introduced the character Ling Zi as a love interest for Qi Qi and then had them get married like 2 episodes later. Pretty sure I'm counting 6 couples now. Is it too much to ask for one conflict free couple? 

 blossoms:

qiqi already got married??

oh please don't even get me started. I thought he's a CHILD, but apparently he's in his twenties, but at the same time he's underage. So it's either a translation mistake or the writers have made it their personal mission to drive me insane. 

 Crimson:

one conflict free couple? 

I was waiting for Weimin and Xingyu to come and be my conflict free couple but we see them after SUCH a long time and he starts yelling at her over nothing -_-
I'm glad Sanli and Yiding haven't had anything to fight about for a while... I hope Yiding stands up to his mom and doesn't give her the wedding trip money.  I still have hope for him because he focused only on Sanli when both his mum and Sanli were in the hospital. And he promised to earn enough money for them to move out, which shows he isn't blind and he's trying to do something to change Sanli's situation.

 blossoms:

qiqi in school

Yeah, that's what I thought. That place looks like a school. So I guess it's a translation mistake and Qiqi and his wife are going to be underage parents *_*
