Title Flourished Peony
……but is a S2 even worth it? I saw someone’s comment that S1 had a lot of fluff in it and could have stretched…
It really isn't fluff. It is character building. Without overcoming adversity, Mudan and Chang Yang would be very different characters. This team has really built the world in which this story unfolds very well. It is similar to The Story of Minglan. While it takes a while for the leads to fall in love, It is worth the wait. We truly get to see the evolution of their love and friendship be built brick by brick. It will make the ending that much more satisfying. I usually do not like slow burn romances but this one is different. There are other parts of the story and fully fleshed out characters that keep it interesting. The next season will up the stakes with the male lead going into battle. I look forward to seeing their story unfolds.
