I sooo feel your frustration (about both the female centered scenarios and those replies lol). I've also sensed that most "popular" dramas with famous leads are more often than not female centered. I don't know if it is supposed to target "independent" women audiences - and I am quite sure they have their data behind it. However I too feel the current drama scene is getting a bit saturated with these. I like me good strong female centered drama but I also really enjoy those (where even though the female is clever, not really those damsels in distress) the man also has his power, history and also sometimes lets call it 'say where the story is going'. This drama is actually on the more ballanced side of the spctrum though it might not really look like that from first sight, one must just watch more of it. Though some themes from those (I don't want to call it feminist dramas, but you know what I mean) are quite strong here as well. If we take it in general I couldn't agree with you more.

I like WR's maternal cousin brother. I've liked him since he first appeared so I'm really glad he didn't succumb to Jundai and instead got more righteous! Hope to see his relationship with WR get better.

I agree a bit, but imagine an ideal world where all the dramas comming out are of such quality, then there is no best timing because the one already airing is great and the new one is also great and then the next one is also great! Isn't that heaven? At least we get enough episodes a day combined so we won't complain about one ep a day lol.

A sweet binge! I went in for the romace and it delivered, with lots of cute and fluffy moments throughout. The gangster theme added a bit of a story but I still see it mostly as a romantic drama. So if that's what you also came for, go for it. 😉

yes!

lol. Love your way of thinking. Not sure if it was worth the money... 🙈

Just read your comment after completing the drama and I'm so worried and so sorry now because the poor peacock was probably burned to death with the house. TT_TT

One question though, why is Xie Shu never concerned about any of his sons? Like he doesn't need the family to continue? In every drama having sons is like super important! Even here when FL is to become the family head her father laughs at the idea but (though he technically still has the younger son) he's not one bit concerned about the future heir of the family at all! I just kept thinking about it throughou the last like five eps 😅

Story is storying, besties are bestiing and romance is romancing... Not much more to ask for. So go and watch it!

Watching her in Meet Yourself and Blossom through the Cloud consecutively I almost couldn't recognize it was both her. The roles are worlds apart and she slayed both of the characters! She is so convincing as an introverted shy girl as well as the confident diva. Great acting skills! Hope to see her in more main roles.

The grandpa was taking care of her all along. Giving her soup, advice, warm words when she was down. I don't think there is anything to redeem from his side. The decision to exchange the kids was made mostly by the parents and everyone thought it was what was needed. And to be honest it was more for the good of the girl, though later the situation got worse for her new family. So I don't find gradpa giving her jade as redeeming but as something he have always done and totally in his character.

No really, how is this a 7.8 and how is nobody watching this gem?

I find even more baffling that even after the supposed 5 years You An is still working on (editing) the photo of the three women pilots. 🙈

My only thought throughout the first three eps was: How tf did they film this without cracking up all the time? Like being the costars of ARP and him doing the stuff he does here?! I would die from laughter more than ten times already. 😭😂

The plot is good but there is just not enough space in this drama format to show us everything that needs to be... If it was a full length drama we would see them fighting for certain things and not just telling us how it all went and how difficult it was. We would be there with them throughout the difficulties, fignting for a good ending, and thus be a lot more invested in the result. Not like now where they just announce he got the army, she joined their plans or he happened to survive. This is all quite lowering the percieved complexity of the plot even if the story is there in the background. But that's probably all they could fit into their budget and possibilities so I don't want to be too critical. I would really love this to be full length but even like this they already did very well. And the actors are superb! Looking forwards to the finale and hope to get some sweet scenes and HE!

I really wanted to give this a higher rating because I really loved the show, its vibe, actors and everything. However, I find the ending really underwhelming. Like they could have had him die for real (which would also lower my satisfaction a little) or they should have shown more about what happened, how he only fainted and a miracle doctor just appeared and he was taken away with FL's knowledge or whatever. But how could he just appear like that?! No explanation, no reason, nothing. Got me a lot more disappointed with the show than had he really died. So still a 8.5 for my sentiments but I really wanted to give it a 9 until like ep 32. TT_TT

I somehow didn't get to watch episodes after ep 10 but the comment section is not really helpful in bringing me to watch till the end... Might as well drop it here. There are also many other dramas I want to watch more I guess.

Wow, such a thorough explanation! I just wish Bai Han's end was made more obvious then. I was missing that end-of-the-villain scene.

I still find the bat a bit suspicious... How I wish it was revealed that Li placed it there to cause the queen dowager's illness. It would be a good circle of her personality at the beginning of the drama, especially similar with how she lit that general on fire.

I like the ending, however, what happened to Bai Han? Did he just disappear from Fufeng's purification or what? This was a huge plothole for me. Nevertheless I really enjoyed this drama. It was not any worse than many full length dramas.
