Good watch, other than the FL would have been dead several times without being saved by someone else. Story would…
Your comment makes me 50-50 regarding watching it, as I typically dislike shows where the FL needs to be rescued a lot. But she seems quite smart and capable in some clips I've seen.
I'm curious - how competent is the female lead as the spy? Is she getting caught and/or rescued by the ML all the time? Or she gets the job done? Or the spying isn't really important here?
Only a couple of episodes in and it's certainly not for me. Damsel Holmes would be a more fitting title. How did…
"How did she survive before the ML forced himself into her life?" Heh, I ask myself the same question in almost every drama featuring supposedly "strong/badass/smart female lead".
On a more serious note - I understand it's bad watch, but even the absolute trash like "Yanxi Palace: Princess Adventures" got 4.9 there, so it's kind of shocking.
Although Chu Qiao is a general, she is only human, she's not an immortal who can magically heal her injuries when…
Appreciate your reply. But it... sucks. After spending 67 episodes of the original "Princess agents" waiting for Chu Qiao to return to her best (presented on a few flashbacks), watching her doing perfectly in the battles leading to the Lake battle, when she was slashing guys left and right, and seeing her tattoo appearing under the water.... we start pretty much from the beginning? Her being weak, vulnerable, relying on guys, etc,...?
Blah.
I understand "Rebirth" isn't a linear continuation, but I'm so tired of the trope of the supposedly "badass female lead" needing growth, help, time, ML's love, etc... Especially under the circumstances I described above.
Oh. And amnesia, of course. What would the drama do without the supposedly "badass female lead" having it.

What are you talking about? Is it too much to ask or competent female lead who will make good decisions, will be a strong fighter and won't need to be saved all the time because of the Romance?
Isn't that what Chu Qiao should be about?"
Also, shouldn't she be super skilled after the Frozen Lake incident? At least according to the end of Princess Agents? No idea how it was presented in the novel, though.
If yes, any idea about a title? Don't see it on Chinese websites.

One question - if the FL has 3 guys interested in her, did the writers make her triple-incompetent, so they can help/rescue her all the time?
Which is actually not easy, but that's another story.
Heh, I ask myself the same question in almost every drama featuring supposedly "strong/badass/smart female lead".
I appreciate your killing skills :).
Desperate rebirth, which made sense, crazy 2ML, great ML+FL as a couple, nice revenge and ending.
Highly recommended.
I have this in my notes as an above-average "fake versus real sister" drama.
Oh, and the actress playing female lead is Li Luo Xi - https://www.haixingduanju.com/yanyuan/info-825067478189449.html
However, I'm yet to see a drama scoring high on Douban, which would suck, and the one ranked low, which I would rate highly.
It's below... everything :)

This one works, though - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W8-Duthx0Y (hard subs)
Just curious - how many episodes did you watch?
