Idk why I started to watch this, but then I realized it was a bad decision so I dropped it.
My main problems with this drama: 1. The visuals of the main cp is bothering me. Tiantian has such a babyface, super small face. The ML has a big and adult face. Top it with their height difference, in my eyes I'm seeing an uncle seducing his own niece, especially when he lifts her to stand on top of the table. I kept thinking "Don't touch her!" 😱
2. ML fell in love with FL after she said "This is lotus, not peach." Seriously???
3. The acting was so awkward. Along with the cheesiest scripts with overacting people, top it with out of the place comedy.
4. FL's character put me off. She is a noble lady, yet she acts like a thug. She doesn't know etiquette, she sits like a beggar, and her attitude is no different from the woman in the market.
I dropped it at ep 14. Idk how did I managed to get that far 🙄
Tiantian is better matched with another babyface actor, like Zhou Yiran, Huang Minghao, Guo Junchen, Wu Junting, etc.
anyone here who knows that iqiyi will release this along with viki later or on a later date? since they're promoting this drama on iqiyi socmed accounts
Different strokes for different folks: I didn’t connect with The First Jasmine, A Splendid Match, or Pursuit of Jade. The Road to Splendor could have been amazing for me if the story didn’t revisit similar arcs so frequently. The acting is superb IMO, and there are some really intense and memorable scenes, but I found the repetition made it difficult for me to stay engaged.
I dropped Blossoms of Power and Love Between Lines. Just sharing a different perspective because I never feel like these articles are for me.
If you’re like me, here are my top dramas of 2026 so far:
**10/10:** Veil of Shadows, Generation to Generation, The Mysterious and Absurd Cases of the Tang Dynasty, The Tang Mist
**9.5-9.7/10:** The Heir, Key to the Phoenix Heart, Fate Beyond Script, Love Beyond the Grave, My Page in the 90s
