Chemistry so good, you almost forget the coercion. Almost.
Pros: Very enjoyable show, hilarious dialogue (despite the cringe moments), everyone is attractive. Although it was based on a novel of questionable quality (let's be honest, a low-quality Wattpad fanfic at best) it managed to actually have good results - everyone is more or less morally grey but you don't hold it against them. The second couple stole the show for me (Guo Chengyu, my beloved) and Chi Cheng's voice actor is spectacular. Last, but not least, China's first BL with explicit scenes and dialogues, so I had to watch no matter what.
Cons: I like morally grey characters but I draw the line at sexual assault - Chi Cheng is a borderline sex offender and both the audience and Wu Suowei are supposed to just accept it and roll with it. Casual sexist statements exist in almost every episode up until the middle of the season.
