This does not fit in with all the other amazing History series.

I love the history series a lot, they are so great and amazing to watch, but this one fell short and major disappointment of all the history series.

Let me start by saying there is no chemistry between these two characters that said relation. They looked better as brothers. It was very disturbing to watch them grow into a couple. Clearly, there is something wrong with the whole family. Ye Xing Si and Fu Yong Jie are NOT a good match at all. It was really sick to watch them. I am fine with the idea of step-brothers turning lovers and getting together, but this was not healthy at all. Fu Yong Jie clearly has a lot of anger, mental health, and has emotional issues. Clearly, he should not be in any relationship where he is steaking and obsessed over his brother, that is not love. The fact that he had to rape his brother because he did not feel secure about being honest with his brother is wrong and then to have a video and show your parents is plain nasty. He should have been taken to a mental hospital . The ending only made it worse with them getting together and the family being ok with it. This storyline was just WRONG in general.

Xiao Li Cheng and Teng Mu Ren pairing I loved the setup and the emotion and growth it had. they should of had the big grand magical ending that the other couple got. I love how you see them grow from where they started and build slowly on it to come together, each realizing their passion and love for one another after all those years. They were amazing and the chemistry was great.

The actors were amazing but the character of Fu Yong with his lack of emotion for his family and care for anyone for me was more like a villain than a love interest for the series. I could do without the office drama too, was not needed and over the top when there was a lot going n already. Secretaries also need to be fired clearly instead of being allowed to have office gossip and drama.
