A little imbalanced
I mostly enjoyed this drama, but I can't shake the feeling that the FL didn't deserve the male lead. Maybe it's because his love and loyalty was so encompassing that she seemed apathetic in comparison. I just wish they would have had a few examples of her being even a fraction as thoughtful as he was. Like a birthday or holiday gift; something, anything! It just felt like too big of a disparity. Actually, come to think of it, this may just be a Bai Lu problem because I got a similar impression from her in Forever and Ever. In that drama she at least verbalized her love and loyalty to the ML, but it wasn't always convincing. Sometimes it was just lines she was delivering. What really gave that romance credibility was One and Only. For whatever reason their love was 100% believable and engaging in O&O, despite the limitations of a serious period drama. Sorry, I digressed. Anyway, LYZ is absolute gold in this. He's so fun to watch, despite any other frustrations.
