Ep14 on gets interesting but can you make it there?

Ep 14 was SAVAGE! Before then I actually didn't care for the drama, but I kept watching thinking "What if this is the last of Zhao Lu Si I get to see" (which I really hope not)

Before ep 14 I hated:
1. The nasty characters: felt like old tropey drama where everyone around FL is one dimensional nasty getting TOO much screen time
2. Zhao Lu Si OTP make up. She's beautiful in a unique way before she started doing makeup like AI.
3. Unrealistic amount of time to do ALL of that and be perfect.

Only if you are into makeup, fashion, glamour, there's unlimited amount of that.

Ep 14 post showdown
1. The Zhao Lu Si I once loved returned! Her crying scene felt genuine again. Especially the scene in ep 15 where she took off all her make up in controlled tears talking to her grandma.
2. The transition from glamor to her real self was so good.
3. Positive development on supporting characters though a few remained one dimensional (which I still skip)

Ep 19, they started to add more humor almost too silly but entertaining. They are so good together! (IMO)

For those who complain ML /FL age gap is too big. From head to toe he legit fits that Bossy CEO image (not like some young kid playing cosplay) His acting is always solid!
