*sips tea* It's a good drama indeed.

ROMANCE VALUE 6.5
Rewatch value is less because once you know what's going on there's nothing left in this drama to see again.

I’m here to drop a review. For you all. Not to tell you if I hate it or not. And believe me, I know you don’t care If I like it or not. So I’ll just write what needs to be written.
So,
I always wait till the whole drama is finished so that I can finish it in one night but this one really made me wait for the next episode.
There is no side lead romance going on for you to skip. Even though they got together after a lot of episodes, the chemistry was still good and mature enough [before they got in a relationship] to satisfy a person like me who only watches romance dramas.
You won’t skip any scene. You might get bored in some of her makeup shots but they end pretty quick and the scene shifts to something else, something good, different. This drama can get a bit boring in the end after the mystery gets solved but you don’t have to worry there’s always a lot to see.
[Romance value is less because 1. They got together so late. 2. There’s a lot to fit in 30 episodes. 3. It’s a time-travel/ sci-fi drama not a rom-com. 4. Even after they got together, there was a lot on their plate. 5. Even after getting in a relationship, their interactions were pretty much the same. (As they were busy with their stuff)

FL: Jiang Xiaoyuan. Smart & Strong, Hard working & mature, Growing & glowing. INDEPENDENT!
She was growing slowly in this drama. Half of the episodes in the beginning were set up in the workplace but there is seriously nothing to worry about. These work scenes only focus on Jiang Xiaoyuan learning and coping with a whole new environment going through a lot of emotions but still staying strong to keep you hooked. She had nothing in the starting, but still kept her high self esteem and respect. Not giving us second hand embarrassment. She was pretty even while crying. Mature to talk everything out and to say all of her thoughts on the face. And there’s no downfall I swear. Once she starts going up, she doesn’t fall back. She knows what to do, and what she’s doing.


ML: Qi Lian. “Where’s ‘my’ Jiang Xiaoyuan?” “I have to unfold the truth.”
Mature, Loving, understanding, smart, rich, kind to friends, can fight. Independent.
Qi Lian, don’t expect much romance from him. He wasn’t like the hot CEO, or genius student, or anything that exists in other dramas. His job here was to protect Jiang Xiaoyuan. He was in love but was busy solving the mystery because it was necessary of course (He did kiss and hug. ;). His good looks did a great job here. He was understanding and matured to talk out any conflict.

Acting: was on point. So real. So satisfying that I also cried. Side leads did a great job, especially Jiang Bo and Li Li.
Hope it was helpful. And if as a drama friend sharing mutual interest, I personally would recommend you this series. Go for it.
