Great Story, Decent acting and well thought ending.
If you can ignore the "angelbaby" related hated are not looking for tremendous actors than this is the show to watch this year.Definitely a low budget drama , with way way better story than most S+ rated drama. The best part of this one was every part seemed balanced out , it nvr got too boring and had one of the most satisfying and well thought of ending which made some logical sense. Yes , it has loopholes (like FMC character not being consistent for a couple of episodes around 32/34) but which Cdrama doesnt. And if you start to hate a show after watching 4-5 intial episodes and didnt like main character please dont rate it , because thats the only reason this show which deserves around 8.3-8,4 is now rated 7.6.

My 2 cents - Why this drama isn't what these ratings will make you believe
Only God knows how this is 8.9 lol, I mean it's could have been 8.4ish ( without those last 3-4 episodes, especially the last one) but man oh man mdl strikes hyping an average show with no sense ending ( and lead up to it), The show turned from switch off your brain and watch and you will like it to, forget you have brain and keep believing it was really good to make up for all the loopholes, no sense things happening. I mean this should be at max around 8.1-8.2 lol. Yes it was entertaining (well atleast til 30ish episode) and I don't mind loop or average acting in some cases, but for complete 40 episodes it's just a show you won't regret watching nothing spectacular here with a typical no sense last cdrama episode.Reasons why this is what it is :
1. Overcompensation by people as this started as underrated drama and people were surprised that it turned out to be good
2. No big traffic actor so no hate ratings
3. A feel good drama with no angst or scenario where main leads can fail or be wrong
No wonder it got average rating in china

This one is part of "Could have beens"- worst execution of a great core story.
In simple terms, it's not that bad that you will regret watching it but you will feel that wew this direction of the story is bad.I am not sure if it's the writter or the director that caused this show to become bad but I will blame the director since the core story with twists was great, but the way it was shown is like wew.Part that I hated most was how they try to portray ml walking wrong path for revenge and people starting to blame him when he didn't even do anything xd.
Overall show has nice music ( especially the main theme), good core story , happy ending (we know how rare this is ), all ruined by worst execution. ( Even casts feel a little off in this one).
