(a rant)
Firstly - the story is ridiculous. I enjoyed it sure, and it wasn't bad. Still it went so over the board.
I still appreciate the range: there were botha green and a red flag next to each other in one frame (Lyu Xian and Xie Wei).
Xie Wei is so ridiculous I only agree to have him for Xue Ning and Yan Lin. He is lowkey suicidal, keeps hurting himself, is irritable and agressive, but also has pretty eyes, so I guess we like him.
I've seen said that both ML and FL in this drama are grey characters, so suitble for each other, but I don't agree. (What, a woman makes one mistake and suddenly she's as bad as a man who made 100). Whatever people say, Xie Wei is obssesive, childish and imposing. As I think about it, I didn't like him though the entirety of the drama, and still don't (the last scene made me like him less if anything).
Second - I love Xue Ning. I really enjoy the strong female leads that apeared in dramas over the recent years. The princess was awesome (she was a perfect princess), I still not quite over it that she fell for Xue Ning. Their friendship was one of the highlights of the show for me.
I liked how both the Jing and Yan fathers were good parents. Also the bromance of Xie Wei's guards (the wink!).
I love Xue Ning, she keeps her composure, helps women, and invested in stocks as soon as she traveled in time. She is the center of the story and the best part of it.
Stil I had a hard time, going over the last episodes of the the drama, it dragged some places, were other times it omitted characters until they had to die, or just never appeared again.
Overall it wasn't horrible, but I wouldn't watch it again. I always have a hard time ranking low dramas I invested my time in and sometimes had fun watching , so it's a 7
