Decent drama that felt into declining on later half

I watched this because of Chen Si and it was decent but not make you gasped since the first half drama was okay and it was declining on the latter half.

The pairing of Chen Si and Liu Xiyu; they have nice chemistry, I love watching. This script is quite novel. ML is reborn into his uncle's body to save FL, who was driven to her death by his own obsession in her previous life. Mature and repentant, he becomes a guiding lover, no longer like in his past life, determined to break her wings.

The interactions between the two in the first half are somewhat ambiguous yet restrained, and quite enjoyable. I quite happy at Chen Si recent role since he choose to leave his CEO persona. Personally i am not fond of Liu Xiyu acting but she can make nice chemistry with her few MLs.

The second half has a strange pacing and doesn't quite make sense. After the truth is revealed, the FL seems to suffer without cause. Perhaps the screenwriter didn't quite figure out how to portray the FL's inner turmoil and eventual acceptance, focusing mainly on "You lied to me, I'm leaving,"

I was really looking forward to the love triangle between the three of them but there is almost none of this and the ending felt a bit unsettling.

Still decent watch.
