Better the 2nd time to Rewatch
The first time I watched the series, I didn't like it that much because the story seemed to be jumping everywhere and I had a hard time to follow. However, the superb acting of the ML, FL and the rest of the crews had kept me going to finish. I have since rewatched it more than one time. The small talks are good and touching, which I had missed the first me, but really contribute to the story development.The ML acting is especially on point, his eyes, face and body expression and the tone of voice. He is just the right age, mature, so masculine and good looking in any outfit. He seemed to be deranged in the beginning, but his character evolved due to interactions with FL. He became a really good human being and devoted partner. It really brings up raw emotion knowing he was the one trained and poisoned the FL and after they fell in love all the positive things he did to FL.
The FL acting is also good. She is pretty, agile and a good fighter, also a good communicator, her words are kind and positive. She knows when your act alone is enough and no need to say anything in some touchy moments. I thought she was lucky that the ML loved her very much but it's not that simple. She was also poisoned and lied to by ML, hard to imagine how to get over that, thank goodness ML never gave up on her.
This is one of the greatest love stories known and I recommend to rewatch it.

Romance with Detective and Forensic work
In addition to the superb acting and the love story, the detective and forensic aspects kept me going in watching the series. I thought I would quit after just a couple but no the series kept getting interesting.The ML Liu Xue Yi as Pan Yue is such a delight to watch, not just his good look in costume drama, his acting is excellent. I want to see more of his works, definitely one of the best actors in Chinese costume drama in my opinion.
I enjoyed the FL Ju Jing Yi as well, I thought her acting was overall good. I wish they opened episode 1, in addition to the Yang Caiwei, also showing Shangguan Jhi who was rich and spoil and always had unrequited love interest on Pan Yue since she was young. This would help the viewers understand the face swap better.
I rewatched the drama not long ago, and I enjoyed the drama more during rewatching, so definitely this drama has high rewatch value.
