The emotional drama between her and Lu Qi is also very exciting, and her cooperation with Zhou Chenjia is very tacit, and they show a touching love-hate entanglement on the screen. So, what is the ending of Liao Guoxiang?
Liao Guoxiang's identity and experience。Liao Guoxiang was originally a woman from a poor background, and in order to survive, she had to sell herself for a living. She married a wealthy businessman, but was mistreated and abandoned by her husband. She escaped from the cage of marriage with her children and came to Shanghai to start a new life. With her intelligence and hard work, she gradually became a famous fashion designer, winning the trust and love of many customers. She also met Lu Qi, a rich and handsome young man, and the two fell in love. However, her happiness did not last long, and she discovered Lu Qi's true identity, which turned out to be a Japanese spy and an enemy who endangered the country and the nation. She made a difficult choice for love, for the country, and for the nation, she decided to betray Lu Qi, provided his intelligence to the people, and exposed his conspiracy. Her move made her a thorn in Lu Qi's side and a target for the Japanese. Her life has been in danger ever since.
Liao Guoxiang's feelings and sacrifices。Although Liao Guoxiang betrayed Lu Qi, she did not give up her love for him. She always hoped in her heart that he would be able to turn back, be able to reform himself, and be happy with her. She also kept doubting in her heart whether he really loved her and whether he really paid for her. Her contradictions and entanglements make it impossible for her to live peacefully. She also can't accept the love of other men, such as Su Mubai, a kind and steady account manager, a man who has always had a crush on her, has always protected her, and has always been going to the trouble for her. Although she was grateful to him, she could not give him a loving response. In her heart, there is only Lu Qi. Her persistence has cost her a terrible price. In the final episode of the show, she is assassinated by a man in white and falls in a pool of blood. The identity of the man in white was not clearly revealed, but it was possible that he was a killer sent by Lu Qi, or it could be Chen Haohui, a wealthy businessman who once pursued her but was cheated out of his money by her. Whoever it is, they hold a grudge because of her betrayal and want to get rid of her. Her death made her child lose her mother, Su Mubai lost her lover, and the audience lost a respectable and pitiful woman.
The meaning and value of Liao Guoxiang。Although Liao Guoxiang's ending is tragic, it is not meaningless. Her ending reflects the cruelty and helplessness of that era, as well as the heroes and emotions of that era. Her ending shows her intelligence and loyalty, but also shows her strength and pathos. Her ending reflects her patriotism and sacrifice, as well as her love and persistence. Her ending brought us thought and moved, and also brought us admiration and learning. Her ending is both a tragedy and a beauty.
To sum up, Liao Guoxiang's ending was assassinated, because she betrayed Lu Qi, and because she loved Lu Qi. Her ending is tragic, but also meaningful. She is an intelligent, loyal, strong and tragic woman, a woman who lives for love and dies for love, and she is one of the most memorable characters in Midnight Butterfly.
