Maybe I dislike Bao Xirou because she is just simply a weak character, mentally and physically. All she's got are looks, where unlike XLN who can actually kick butt.
In the 3 adaptions that I've seen ('82, '94, and '08) Huazheng was annoying as hell. In '82, I kind of pitied her. But in '08 all I did was wanted to make her shut her mouth or just skip the scenes. Don't remember much about '94, but I know I didn't like her there either. In the novel HZ was willing to give up GJ easily? Guess adaptations stretched out HZ's jealousy to emphasize the on love triangle.
