Drugs aren't it

I started the first episode just to get a feel of things then I found myself saying just one more episode. It is simply captivating, from the characters to the scenes even to the dialogue. Like everyone is clever like actually clever. Everyone is thinking steps ahead of their original plan. No one is who they say they are, I found myself having to reevaluate every character after each scene, got to the point that I had to watch a scene a couple of times. This show made me question my case solving skills.

The story flows well, it is fast pace and it doesn't feel rushed. No scene is unnecessarily wasted and that kept me engaged. The acting is great, everyone was able to pull off the layers that their characters demended. Everyone was just double crossing each other, it was hard to find who was actually "good" and who could be trusted expect for the ML, FL and A Xi. Others were either grey, very grey or just down right wicked. They were well written and I liked how everyone had sense...to some extent and the fact that the females weren't used as unnecessary characters. Everyone badass in their own way.

As for the romance, its definitely not the focus but the tension and chemistry between them is wild. I had little expectations for Liu yi feng and he surprised me in a good way. Long ge's mind is wired different, the man loved his crazy ideas and how they were executed.

The only thing that threw me off was the ending, not what i imagined at all.
