Sizzling chemistry!!!

Ending: All’s well that end’s well

If you want to watch a “mostly” stress-free drama with a lot of chemistry between the two main lead pairs, then this is the one for you.
While you have the main lead pair knowing each other from childhood, the other lead pair is the typical FL falling in love with the ML and her chase. But what is good is their repartee which doesn’t let you fast forward.
The FL has a severe allergy to her own tears which makes her faint every time she sheds them. The ML vows to protect her from crying and catches her every time she drops down. They are so comfortable with each other that it doesn’t seem like a drama but a window to their actual world....that's how good their acting is. They are childhood friends turned hostile (on the FL’s part). They work together and the story takes on a mysterious tone when the subject of the FL’s father’s death is brought in.
The mystery is resolved. Some misunderstandings occur but are dispelled eventually.
But all this wouldn’t be complete without the stellar acting of the negative ML brilliantly portrayed by Kido Gao as Du Lei. What a performance! What an actor he is! He reminded me of Kim Woo Bin from The Heirs. Brilliant turn of emotions. Brilliant change of character from negative to positive and negative again. The only drawback I found was the over the top expressions some of the times.
The supporting cast is equally good too.

Towards the end:
I loved the fact that we lived through the ML’s (both pairs) love with them for a span of 6 extra episodes instead of just a moment of happy ending. And I loved the proposal which strangely brought tears to my eyes. I felt as if I rode along their journey of love with them and was happy to see it culminate in the perfect ending that was.

All in all, It's a good drama with a typical love story brought to life by good acting thanks to the entire cast.
