Story
The story itself start as a revenge plot from Shi Yue (ML) to Nan Qiao (FL). 7 years back, the ML, trained to become a soldier, getting expelled from some mistakes he didn't do and after that, his life went downhill. During the darkest times, he met a woman with a same hardships and growing care for her. But the relationship didn't end well.
7 years passed, the ML met the woman who "ruined" his life, and trying to take revenge. What he didn't expect is to fall in love with her, while his past haunts him back.
Acting/cast
All the casts are good, especially William Chan (maybe i'm a bit biased). His expression changing from playful, calculating and cold is really interesting. The only thing i'm not sure is Bai Baihe. She seems a bit stiff, but (maybe) because of the characters she played, which is introvert/calm tech geek woman, it is understandable.
Music
The music is good and well placed.
Minus
The flashbacks were too many and unnecessary. And it lacks proper kiss !
An Ning's plot is a little weak near the end.
Plus
William Chan dimples and smiles
Bai Baiha's character : independent, calm, non clingy boss/girlfriend. Her outifit as a tech woman is on point.
Their "honeymoon" phase is really cute and heartwarming.
PERSONAL REVIEW *spoiler alert*
I think the big theme for this drama is to let go of your past. Like Nan Qiao said to Ouyang "Stillness is relative, change is absolute", everyone is bound to change. Whether to be better or worse. In this drama, almost all of the character got something in their past.
Shi Yue, with his relationship with An Ning, trying to change and become a better person. He realize Nan Qiao is the one that can accept his past whatever it was. Meanwhile An Ning is still stuck in the past with her love for Shi Yue.
For Ouyang Qi, time froze when her boyfriend Nan Si, died 3 years ago. She closed her heart to anyone and maybe secretly hoped that her bf would appear again. Although we know it's impossible.
And Chang Jian, who stabbed his bestfriend from the back, trying to make amends to make up his past his mistakes.
For me, the only character who's moving on is Nan Qiao. She built her business and make her brother's dead as a goal to success her company. Even with his dad disapproval and An Ning schemes, she didn't back down and handled it really well. I could say she's an epitome of mature woman, business-wise and relationship-wise.
