Underrated
First of all, is a joy to watch another short drama with Hu Yi Yao, after Secrets of the Shadow Sect...For the drama, it is a agreable short drama with an intersting story and premise.
Set between a virtual world and the real world, alneit a futuristic one
As for the ending, it leaves the ending open but inplied that both mains return to the real world, meet again and resumed their relation, with the possibility and opening for a sequel...

Not as Red Flag as you may think...
While the start rings every warning bell out there and their dynamic is worst than 50 Shades of Grey - Closer to NETFLIX's 365 Days - after Xie fakes loosing her memories, the relation between both MC becomes smoother, almost sweet...The story is good, with an intersting betrayal, wrongfully accused plot, concluded in a way that could do with an epilogue

Worth watchin but with a taste of Hallmark....
This is a good drama, with a good plot and a good execution of the challenges of releasing an app in this ultracompetitive world, but after watching it I'm left asking myself if I've just watched a Hallmark Drama or not as the feels and the everything surrounding the FL story screams Hallmark....The SL/SM story is completely ignorable, only picking up in the 2nd half...
And sadly, the FL Ex Boss/Hinted EX Boyfriend had so much potential, wasted in a smoothed out and... Hallmark, innocent conclusion, just like the Classmate that wanted to be more than just that...
The FL and ML acting and the story are good just as is the story, and the depiction of the growth of their relation does not feel forced and we can actually feel, at times that they were childhood friends with romantic feelings for one another.
In conclusion, this drama is not bad, and in one of those days you just want to pass the time it is absolutely rewatchable...

Best Short Lenght Chinese Drama!!!!
The story is brilliantly written, the action is on point, the OST is chef's kiss and it has a healthy main's relation and a happy ending, and that is precisely what I want in a drama, so it has everything to have a 10 «/10 in every point, but that finale stops me from that...That finale seemed a bit rushed and I wanted one episode where they explored the Butterfly curse from the prespective of the ML and a episode where they explored the pain of the ML and FL separation instead of giving us two filler episodes before the finale where the ML returned seemilgy unafected by the butterfly curse...
That takes me a bit out of the finale and that is the only reason I don't give it a 10/10 on everything and can only give a 9/10

Masterpiece and Emmy worthy!!!
This was one of the best dramas I watched.Everything is good, the acting, the soundtrack, the story...
It gives us action and intrigue in equal and healthy doses and even in it's most slow and calm moments it keeps us enthralled in the story.
The actors are brilliant and convey their emotions as if we were there with them and the soundtrak wraps everything perfectly...
That being said, I know many watchers got confused by that ending, BUT:
The script writer left for the audience to think about what happened...
Now, I personally think they had to be apart for 3 years by Emperor's decree in order for her to be redeemed and for him to fully focus on his task, and in the end, three years later, when both had done what they had to do, they were allowed, as a reward, to reunite and to live their lives together...
And the coup of poison was in order to fake her death like she did during her execution in early episodes...
