This could have been so much better but the editing was so choppy plus the ending...Too bad - a feel good show for the most part and the cast did a oretty good job, especially the ML.
Well said. I don't mind romance, but for a character like Xie Huai An, who have experienced such a tragedy and…
So true. Other than maybe a small side story for a character who isn’t XHA, romance just doesn’t fit this plot. Even the other characters consciously give up love because of the lives they lead. Instead of calling them “noble idiots,” like I might in another show, I actually applaud them for sticking to the agenda.
This is not a “scroll your phone while it’s on” kind of show. It demands my full attention, and honestly, it deserves it. The details matter, the nuances matter, and the story and characters really pull me in. Even things that happen to minor characters hit harder than expected.
The flashbacks are well done—they don’t feel like filler at all, but actually deepen the plot and clear up the backstory. At its core, this is a story about someone completely focused on revenge, so the change of the love interest to his sister makes sense and doesn’t feel out of place.
I’m only on episode 7, but there’s already this heavy, looming sense that the ending won’t be a happy one. And I expect it.
Jiang Mu drifting was pretty hot too. And her chemistry with Lin Sui 🔥 The “Chinese Girls” “Handsome Boys” exchange. 🔥 I’m of course team Jim Zhao but I’m glad Jiang Mu isn’t some lovesick teenager just focused on him… I like her confidence and comfort around other guys too.
I think San Lai played by Fei Qiming had a crush on MuMu in the drama.Because according to the web novel of Speed…
I’m actually not surprised because they have such a great connection between them. Hopefully it is a secret crush and won’t cause conflict between Sanlai and Jinzhao.
thankfully I’m gonna wait until it’s completed and spend Christmas watching it 👍👍. How is it so far…
I envy you for having the patience 😊
I’m really enjoying this so far. It definitely has a Fast & Furious vibe, right down to the flashy cars and scantily clad girls. Like that franchise, the plot isn’t especially deep or sophisticated—but it doesn’t need to be. This show knows it’s here to entertain, and it does that job well. There’s also some intrigue around the ML’s background.
The leads have great chemistry, and the tension between them isl 😅🔥. The romance is currently on the cute side because the FL is only about 19 and is taking love advice from another teenager—so yes, she can be a bit childish at times. But that tracks, given how sheltered and pampered she seems to have been. I’m really looking forward to her growth, and I’m sure she’ll mature alongside Jin Zhao, the ML.
Sanlai is the kind of sidekick everyone wishes they had. He treats Jiang Mu like a little sister and is unfailingly kind and loyal. He’s basically that beloved SML who feels almost too good to be true. I too hope he gets a love interest—and right now, my money’s on the FL’s friend, the same one handing out all that questionable teenage romance advice.
Ep 11 was all about Jin Zhao falling harder - from his monologue to the way he gazed at her…loving all these fluffy ,cheesy heart fluttering moments!

He Yu is killing it with his character - typically so brooding, just a little smile of his is heart melting.
Esther, what can I say - I just love her…voice and all.
She has great chemistry with all - I love her dynamics with Jin Zhao’s buddies - especially Sanlai.
