SO MUCH CHEMESTRY AND AN EXCITING STORY

I’ve read the novel, so I was already familiar with the underlying story. I started following this drama the moment the cast and filming were announced. I’m a huge fan of Esther, and while I already knew He Yu, this drama made me fall in love with him instantly.
​The story is mind-blowing. Don't let the 'family' dynamic hold you back—the fact that he was adopted. They didn't see each other for 10 years; they were separated as children and reunited as young adults, when she was around 19/20 and he was 23/24. They both changed so much that the 'family' feeling vanished. In reality, the Male Lead was never truly treated as a member of the Jiang family; he was like a stranger. The only one who treated him like her 'everything' was MuMu. Since they built this bond as children, I see them more as childhood friends. When they reunited, they finally understood how to express that longing and that need for one another, and they accepted their feelings.
​I’ll say it again: the story is incredible, the chemistry is insane, and there’s tension in every single episode. There are plenty of kisses, lots of action scenes, and the side characters are actually interesting. He Yu and Esther did an outstanding job bringing their characters to life; you can really see their hard work in every emotion and detail. I also want to mention that He Yu performed his own driving scenes—he’s a huge motorcycle lover in real life too!
​They both have amazing visuals and are super hot. The costumes are fantastic; she never wore the same outfit twice, and she was always perfectly coordinated. Just looking at her outfits put me in a good mood. MuMu’s character might seem a bit childish at first, but she’s actually very cool and matures a lot by the end of the series. I also loved that they included a reconciliation scene between MuMu’s mother and ChaoChao; this wasn't in the novel, and I really wanted to see it. ChaoChao is a great character in my opinion; he suffered so much and struggled to find a place where he truly belonged. MuMu is the only one who, like the moon, always orbits around him.
​This series is just too beautiful—everyone, go watch it! I only wish some scenes hadn't been cut. MuMu and ChaoChao forever together! ❤️❤️❤️ The attention to detail was great, and the OST is also very beautiful."
