Wow! Very promising start, let’s see where this take us…
Up to and including episode 4:
This drama is so well written and acted that you can’t help but fall totally in love with brave, broken yet beautiful Chen Yichen (played by Lu Si Tong) and an equally damaged and slightly deranged Lu Feng (played by Ayden Sng).
The plot follows these two characters who fell deeply in love while at school but were ripped apart by Lu Feng’s dominating father (and Yichen’s weak parents) following an altercation at school that leaves a bully broken and blooded. The former is banished to America and the latter is forced to change schools in the aftermath of the scandal.
Four years later they meet again when Lu Feng returns to China under the pretext of growing up, accepting responsibility and getting married when in fact all he wants to do is search for his lost love, and the pair are reunited when Lu Feng becomes the boss at one of his father’s companies only to find Yichen is one of his subordinates.
The second male leads are also on point - well cast and with depth to their characters - they are equally compelling and I love how protective Cheng Li is of his brother so bravo (so far) to the script writers.
I’ve only ever binge watched BL stories before and it’s killing me that I’m having to wait a week for the next two episodes.
I don’t think we’re in for an easy ride and I don’t know where it will take us but I’m so down for this drama and for good reason.
Long may the initial impetus continue.
