Beyond my expectations

The pace, storyline, and most of all, the chemistry between Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu goes far beyond my expectation. CGI is better than most high production movies.

Timing and the looks these two give each other.

Please let us have a happy ending! The touching story of the soldier whose spirit stayed with his wife for several years to protect her and the music in the background was like a beautiful, but sad dream.

Engaging and interesting from the start

I have been waiting for these two to pair up again after suffering drama trauma from "Princess Agents" years ago and this one did not disappoint. Hoping they're able to stay consistent and interesting.

The cold silent treatment

Thankfully the issues that interfere with relationships are shortlived at this point. We nearing the end and there will probably more sugar coming up to make up for all the vinegar and frustration from earlier episodes.

Overcoming the difficulties of the relationship

I love how Shu Yi is clear on who she loves now and that she doesn't completely fall apart when things don't go smoothly. The other couples are together. Hoping we can see more closeness with our lead couple.

Full of vinegar and I'm enjoying it.

Our leads are finally getting a chance to be closer and spend more non-work related time with each other. I like how attentive Shi Yan is with Shu Yi. It's nice that they are not quick to jump into the physical part of their relationship yet.

Wonderful seeing how the story is unfolding

The difference btwn the novel and drama

In the novel, Shu Yi's main reason for pursuing Shi Yan was to get revenge on her ex whom she thought cheated on her with his niece; however, in the drama, that was not the main reason, but her ex approached her in epi 22 asking if that was the reason she was dating that "man" (she thinks he's referring to Shi Yan, while the ex is referring to some old married uncle.. that the "mistress" said she was seeing). Misunderstandings all around.

MangoTV subs cause brain damage...

Funny to see the different relationships in this drama. Hoping we get to see character growth in the drama though it's lacking in the novel. Either way, I'm loving seeing Bailu and Wang Hedi costar in a modern drama together.

Slow burn and lots of bits added that were not in the novel

Nice to see that our leads acknowledge their relationship now. Lots of typical tropes including the CEO bf saving our Shu Yi from street pervs and making it back to the hotel then parting with a chaste kiss.

It's been light fun up till this episode and things keep getting better

There is some frustration at how unresponsive Shi Yan is to Shu Yi's pursuit, but as a viewer, it's fleeting as we get to see his responses and small smalls. In the novel, her pick up lines are cringe worthy and cheesy. They're still cheesy, but off set by Bailu's endearing way of saying them.

Zheng Shu Yi is more professional here in the drama than novel

Enjoying the interaction between our leads and how they're slowly getting to know each other. Glad our girl got another chance to have a better interview with Shi Yan.

Just when we were hoping for some happiness for our couple

Damn the evil father! Of all the many xianxia dramas I've watched, I don't think I've seen one that had that much emotional damage inflicted. Let there be sweeter moments ahead (though unlikely).

Reunion in the present 500 years later

Finally, we're at the meeting point where they're reunion takes place and Cang Jiumin's intelligent and cunning way helps him learn her identity. I'm not ready for this drama to end in just a couple more episodes. There are so many parts on the editing room floor that we weren't blessed to see due to NRTA restrictions.

Tantai Jin's madness

Thankful the drama did not share the extent of Tantai Jin's madness and obsession over Ye Xi Wu's death and her corpse. His battle with the general and seeing him remember and reflect on his past with YXW/LSS was another turning point of this drama.
