Main Leads Talk through problems and Stick together
This drama truly portrayed what life can be when there are ups and downs, especially in love. The female lead Hu Xiu and male lead Xiao Zhiyu/Qin Xiaoyi, show that love and problems can be faced together that you shouldn’t abandon the ones you love just because of difficulties you may be facing in your own life.This mystery was truly very interesting. I’m telling you the first episode captivates you get you into the story, the plot, and the process are all very interesting. It ties you in you don’t even want to skip a second of it.
There is a breakup scene in this drama, but it wasn’t a true breakup where they decide to move on and spend years without each other. No, they actually went to talk it out, to face the problem together and the breakup scene probably lasted at most one episode. But it won’t feel like it’s too long because the process in which they find out about each other and look out for one another is really good and it makes up for any sad scenes you might feel.
I will say that the second lead couple is also really good. Zhao Xiaorou and Gong Huaicong needed more scenes together because the ending left a cliff hanger of how they would get together. They’re both such lighthearted people but truly care when difficulties arise—that’s something to admire. I really hope they make a SEASON 2 and show more about the process of getting the second leads together because they are so meant for each other and I love it.
To be honest this is the perfect drama for mystery romance and basically games as well. If you’re a person who’s into all of that, you’ll really love it. In addition to that, they have a really good amount of romantic scenes, not just them solving the problems of the murder mystery and all of that, they focus on the main leads romance! That’s what I feel should be the driving force for MOST Cdramas that create a story with two leads in a relationship. THEY ARE THE LEADS and we need to see more of their personal lives together, instead of focusing on external matters!!!!!!
To conclude, this is a drama I 1000% recommend to ANYONE! Please watch it guys🥹

A TRUE Review Explained!
All these people giving low ratings underneath this review section aren't helping. This Cdrama is truly a gem to watch! The Mains: Lin Huan'er(FL) and Gao Haiming(ML) are truly made for each other and always work through their problems, even if it can't be said, they stick together and always have a great time--which is something I love seeing in Cdramas.To acknowledge the negative comments in this section, the reason why this drama gets a 9.5 (from me) and not a 10 is because of the ending. The ending was not very satisfying to the audience, considering that they were spending time (MOST OF THE EPISODE) away from each other and longed to see each other again in the real world. I just wish the directors added an extra episode to show how their life was after they found each other in 2025.
Other than the ending, the ENTIRE story is a great watch! The system pissed me off though, it tried to ruin everything, but in the end, it redeemed itself by allowing the 1999/2000 Gao Haiming and 2025 Lin Huan'er to reunite with each other. So, I give it a pass.
The story was REALLY good! I found it to be quite comedic and engaging. (I'm the kind of person who skips certain scenes when annoying parts in a Cdrama come up and with this drama, I didn't skip ONE SECOND of it). The process was very good and the leads weren't awkward with each other. Their romance was pretty clean and light-hearted.
I know that some Cdrama fans don't want to watch this Cdrama because they heard that Chen Xingxu and Wang Yuwen are longtime friends, so they feel that them being in a romantic drama together would make the scenes awkward. To be honest, it was the COMPLETE opposite! Those 2 were so natural with each other and NOT ONCE did I feel like their kissing scenes or cheesy lines were weird. Everything fell into place and the butterflies flew quietly.
In summary, I would 100% recommend this drama to anyone! The story has a bit of a nostalgic feel to the story (My Girlfriend is an Alien). So, if you haven't thought about watching this show already, PLEASE go into your app/website and give it a GOOD WATCH. Thank you for reading this review and I hope you have an awesome day!!!!
