Never understand the FL's womb logic in this drama.

I watched it because I really liked Peng Yao dramas.

Wang Nian Jiang Cheng's white hair look was really good. It was supposed to be a sweet little drama, but somehow it turned into a complete mess. The romance wasn't smooth either; everything felt inexplicable.

The premise quite new since FL is reborn with her womb, and the first half is incredibly sweet. If you cut out all the scenes with the SFL, this would be a super sweet romance. Unfortunately, the screenwriter can't write a script without adding melodramatic female rivalry, ruining a perfectly good sweet drama. The premise of traveling with a womb is initially appealing, but the screenwriter treats it as if the child isn't there, resulting in various inconsistencies in the plot.

For example, plot point of a FL getting pregnant and having a child during time travel is just too much. It's terrifying to think that a college freshman would be pregnant. And then there are all sorts of other things that happen afterward. If a college freshman gets pregnant, the child must be incredibly resilient.

I almost dropped this drama due the Inconsistencies and tried to fasten 2.5x speed for better review.

Maybe if you're not plot driven and still hardcore fans you can enjoy this.

I love the ambiguous tension between the lead.

I watched this last year and i quite like Feng Ming Chao-Meng Na version (The best version of the adaptation). so i give this version try.

The plot is actually so-so, the supporting characters' constant bickering is annoying, and FL doesn't suffer any losses. Yang Han and Meng Lu are are good-looking and very pleasing to the eye. But Meng Lu chemistry with Yang Han isn't strong. Honestly, in Yang Han's several dramas, I haven't felt much chemistry with any of the main characters. There aren't many sweet moments, but they're quite sweet. The kisses was decent even it was not sensual. This drama offers ambiguous tension that i enjoy.

Stills decent drama to watch.

Writer should inspired by Doraemon.

I am watching this when i have Gong Fang Ni binge-watching and this is my review after first view.

The acting between Gong Fang Ni and Wang Qian Shou are decent to watch and the kiss is just peck considering this is family drama.

The plot is about FL&ML children from future to save their parent. They come on ML wedding with SFL and FL interrupted their wedding saying she had 10 abortion and the children comes on perfect time and saying the children was his. FL purpose was to stop her village demolition. ML company was affected by the news and they had marriage of convenience. The children acts as their parents cupid. The effect was quite decent for on-budget drama since they using anywhere door, anywhere camera, cupid arrow, doctor kit etc.

The cons in this drama is about the timeline about FL&ML children in future. Few scenes are being too rushed as they tighten the duration so there is many plot hole about FL&ML future. The antagonists are quite have old-style acting especially FL step sister and SFL. FL humiliated by her father and his new family. The most ridiculous part is FL and the children are being kidnapped by antagonist, ML wants to rescue them but at last even ml was also helplessly kidnapped, needed some random old man to save them.

Still decent watch if you want to get family theme.

Watching this make me doubt about anything

I watched this after Xiao Wenyu version comes out and that drama quite hard to watch. For me, this is slightly better and have balanced acting since Chen Gang and Tian Miao Miao embodies their character greatly.

This drama is hard to categorize. If you call it tragic, you feel the FL deserves the sins she committed in her past life, and you also feel the ML deserves his own madness. If you call it sweet, the ML genuinely loves the FL in both lives. In the previous life, he forced himself on her, and in this life, he pretends not to love her in public while secretly being a devoted admirer.

I don't know who is tormented beside the myself. You say ML is tormented? I think he enjoys it. You say the FL is tormented? I think she's really asking for it. You say the housekeeper is tormented? He gets a high salary.

Actually the half of first drama was better pace until the appearance of brother. He is the one who destroy the yin yang of this crazy drama and everything was disjointed. The brother is one of reason i am not recommended this drama.

This drama supposed to highlight FL more

I watched this last year since i want to watch He Jianqi in ancient drama.

It's a quick transmigration story. FL dies as an empress at the beginning, and then transmigrates into various forms, including a princess, a eunuch, and an empress dowager. She starts by wanting to escape but gradually becomes aware of the ML feelings for her and ultimately thwarts the villain's plot. The story itself is terrible, and the character development is also quite poor. The chemistry is barely non-exist between He Jianqi and Ma Xinyu.

The highlight in this drama is He Jianqi feel like his acting is very natural, especially his rebellious and unruly character, which is just right. Actually this drama should highlight F character since she change in many forms but i feel Ma Xinyu still failed to grap the difference of character charm.

Only recommended to solo fans.

Quite fresh theme about spaceship.

I was quite interested when there is first spaceship Chinese short drama and finally i found the proper subtitle this year since last year they only got raw drama and My Mandarin skill was not really good. Plus i quite like Xu Mengyuan acting.

With its fresh subject matter, interesting setting, simple expression, and excellent ensemble cast, this story, stripped of its aerospace science fiction packaging.

To put it simple; It can only be described as a familiar short drama plot. SML is jealous of the teacher's favoritism towards the ML and plots to kill the teacher (FL is the teacher's daughter). To be honest, the reason for the teacher's death can only be said to be the ML's doing. Consuming with guilt, ML leaves the aerospace research institute to become a contractor. Years later, for some unknown reason, SML insisted on going to Ganymede. He encountered technical difficulties and sought the ML's help. In the end, I still didn't understand his actions. SML kidnapped the FL to take her to Ganymede, and when the ML came to rescue her, he was also kidnapped.

The special effects in this drama are quite good for a short series. The effects of outer space, spaceships, meteorites, and robots are all quite well done, and some of the aviation terminology isn't too far-fetched. The Robot Wu Gang was quite interesting, though he sacrificed himself twice, and the second time his emotions were damaged.

The cons are almost no romantic moment between the leads so obviously no kisses in this drama. Plot is kind of weak but i am quite lenient person since it was first proper Spaceship Sci-Fi drama in duanju. Hope there is more spaceship sci-fi drama since it was quite niche and i was the target.

Recommended to watch.

Heart-Rending Revenge Drama

I watched this since i see nice premises from Tiktok and not really regret it.

The plot is about FL who going to prison for protecting her sister and has childhood sweetheart waited her to marry but he was killed by rich family whose son need heart transplantation. This plot reminds me from Shen Haonan-Jia Yixuan but it was 85% different. FL didn't fall in love with the heart-transplanting ML during her revenge; she remained stay in focus on her purpose. FL purpose was to destroy the rich family-the son included. On 10 minutes felt like watching a crime drama; the characters were very well-developed and clearly explained, though there were some slightly shorter parts later on.
The revenge methods were diverse, exploiting the greed of the SFL, the lust of the SML, the kindness of the ML, loyalty of sisters from jail gradually leading them to self-harm and kill each other.

Zuo Yi portrayal of villainous woman was quite natural and I was surprised at Zhang Tingrui acting as dual lead sickly rich son and childhood sweetheart. Not forgetting Sa Gang Yun portrayal as greedy rich father.

The cons the logic on this drama was a bit weak and didn't hold up to close scrutiny. Thankfully, the ending is relatively decent.

Recommended to watch.

Decent plot but felt no charm

When I know Zhang Chuxuan, Ye Haoran and Xu Kaixin collaborate in drama i was excited but when i watched this drama last year it was underwhelming because the plot was actually good but it lacks sparks of enjoyment.

Zhang Chuxuan and Xu Kaixin had chemistry eventhough they played as estranged couple pretends to be couple goals. I liked how FL handled her husband affair in front of live streaming and sneakily collected evidence of her husband affair.

Ye Haoran....Ugh he is the weakest part on this drama. No chemistry between him and Zhang Chuxuan even as dynamic duo. The romance is kind forced and glad the ending is quite decent (Glad they dont force them to be together since it didnt match FL character).

The duration was not too long but i don't recommend this drama because it lacks of sparks.

Quite underwhelmed Han Yutong drama.

I watched this last year and it was Han Yutong longest drama i try to digest since there is no chemistry between her and Zhao Guanyu.

The script isn't particularly innovative. FL saves her income to support her boyfriend's PhD studies, and he promises to marry her after graduation. When he graduates and their child is older, FL plans to register the child's birth, only to discover he has a pregnant girlfriend and overhears a conversation between him and his future mother-in-law. It turns out that years ago, her boyfriend got her drunk and sold her to someone else for money, but she accidentally went to the wrong room and had sex with a stranger.

She meets the child's biological father—the male lead—at the Civil Affairs Bureau and they are getting flash marriage .

ML is stubborn and narcissistic, but reliable in crucial moments, fiercely protecting FL. After getting to know the FL's daughter, he's also very good to the child. His only moment of lapse in judgment is when a female supporting character impersonates him. In the end, the ML discovers that his "white moonlight" is the FL, and the family of three has a happy ending.

Still decent to watch but the pace was really slow.

It was OK

I quite like Wang Haozhen and Lu Lulu version so i will give myself trying this drama (this was first version and people in Xiaohongshu always said it was better than Wang Haozhen) but maybe i was slightly subjective but Wang Haozhen and Lu Lulu version was better than this since it looks age appropriate adult romance. Liu Shanglin and Wu Jialu didn't look like convince enough to being doctor and nurse. I feel they are just intern in this drama.

Plot is around 80% same with Wang Haozhen-Lu Lulu version, but the great things in this version the plot is not being dragged in the middle which i understand why people liked this version. The obvious wig on Liu Shanglin head was too ugly and distracting and his acting still subpar compared to Wu Jialu. The chemistry between the lead was not well shown in here. For the chemistry i think this version is still sufficient to watch.

FL was definitely more heartbroken and devastated, but I really preferred the less hysterical handling of the breakup in Lu Lulu version because it feels more mature considering her age character was not young adult nor teenager.

Still watchable though.

Hope in the season 4 they wont use Wang Peiyan character as a joke anymore.

Finally i have mood to writing review about Tainai and the greatest things in this drama are supporting casts especially the brothers (the grandpa's also included in this) so it was expected to getting popular.

Personally Li Keyi as Rong Yun was average because if the supporting cast was from unknown actors the result is absolutely different.

The earlier episodes had some flaws; for example, the woman was pregnant, and a DNA test could have been done directly, but they dragged it out for several episodes. The later plot was good even they added so many F4 reference, Yuyin scene in Good Girl, etc but maybe the jokes didn't make me laugh or i was too tensed when i watch this.

Chen Tianxiang in here was so refreshing and his role was an significant role quite like his tandem with Wu Tianhao. Personally Meng Na character was unnecessary in this story and her acting is her comfort zone. One of the cons of this drama is they are over the line with Wang Pei Yan slapstick joke and his character was like the idiom frog in a coconut shell by scriptwriter.

Still decent watch and personally Tinghuadao are milking this series and making Tainai 4 with Cai Xinyang as Li Keyi's love interest.

Recommended to watch for stellar supporting casts.

Simple Plot for CP driven fans.

The plot is simple; the highlight is the sweet romance between Lu Huanyu and Zhang Jinyi. Their chemistry are overflowing with sweetness and plenty of kissing scenes

FL is also well-developed; she's incredibly strong-willed, a master of witty banter, and never backs down. Liked how ML teaches FL business, helping her to obtain the group's inheritance rights.

The villain in this drama is the typical villain of a short drama stubborn with narcistic attitude. Old style acting method.

Decent to watch if you are not into plot-driven drama and want the sweetness of CP.

Perfect Suspense drama for Duanju

I watched this two years ago and always rewatching and still amazed as first time watch. This drama giving Thai Movie somehow.

This is Jiang Shiqi first non-commercial drama and she is not into usual lovestruck FL instead she perfectly nailed as blind girl who get her sight again. Guo Ting Ting is incredible in this drama i almost not recognizing her looks.

Wang Daotie is perfect antagonist role in this drama. Not forgetting the child actor especially FL son who nailed the traumatized child. The Suspense feeling was perfect especially in the middle part until the end of drama.

The Ending was satisfying for me. Even Until now, I still rewatching this drama.
