Come for the mystery and stay for the mystery
This drama didn't do much for me. The only thing that kept me invested was solving the main mystery. Discovering what happened in Haiya and Yesha's true identity were the only intriguing parts. I'm impartial to Wang Xing Yue but I've seen a lot better from him. Bei Ming was the highly intelligent, noble idiot type but still a pretty dry character most of the time. The romance with Xiang Han Zhi the show tried to force down our throats was painful. In my opinion, the show just didn't need any romance. As for Xue Man, I have no problem with a FL being a brute but she was also a bore. Zhuge Kongyun, Huo Dai Rong and Qing Zhuo were the most entertaining of the group. I've never liked Deng Kai in anything so it's a shame my favorite character that I've seen him play so far is in a drama I didn't love. He Luo Luo was pretty annoying and obnoxious as Tong Shuang. But as far as villains go, he was solid. All the characters in this show I liken to the interactive scenery that Disneyland installs for you to stare at before you get on any of their rides. Just there for mental stimulation but the main case is really the meat of this drama and the only reason worth staying for the ride. The OST and cinematography were pretty good though. I don't regret watching this, nor do I intend to deter anyone from watching it. The mystery is decent. But once was enough lol
