I want a little special episode for the end of the story of Yue Qi and Yue Jinzhao.

This is my first time watching a Chinese historical drama. Honestly, I rarely watch historical dramas because most of what I find are stories about royal politics, crown princes, and the struggle for the throne. I decided to watch this drama because I wanted to see Xu Kai's acting.
In terms of the story, it is quite interesting, I like it, there are quite a lot of mysteries that make me curious.
The OST song, I really like it especially the opening song. Qi ji or Miracle by JS
The acting of the actors and actresses is very good. I even find it difficult to imagine how Xu Kai acts as 2 people whose personalities are quite opposite. Even often in one episode there is a conflict of emotions between the 2 roles. When Jinzhao is happy, Bian Luohan is sad or angry. If the scene was shot on the same day, Xu Kai is really great at managing emotions to play the 2 roles.
At the end of the story, I was confused about how Yue Qi could come back to life even though he exchanged his life for Jinzhao. I realized it when I replayed the video where Yin Xuwei exchanged his life. Yin Xuwei exchanged his life not only for Jinzhao's life but also for Yue Qi's life. The Longtan said that Yin Xuwei's short life span and with all the memories of life he had were enough to exchange the lives of 2 people but they would be short-lived. Finally Xuwei made a deal with the longtan what to do if later someone else exchanged their life for Jinzhao.
Here it can be ascertained that Xuwei had predicted Yue Qi's arrival to exchange Jinzhao. So it can be said that Yue Qi and Jinzhao can come back to life because of the exchange of Yin Xuwei and Yue Qi themselves.
But I'm a little dissatisfied with the ending of Qi and Jinzhao meeting. Here we don't know whether Qi is still Kun or not. And how they will realize that they are destined for each other. Maybe if there is a special episode to tell it, it will be very satisfying for the audience.
It's quite touching that 6 friends are in one frame at the ending. Although Ju Sifang is just a name told by the storytellers.
