I think the show won’t pass censorship if it’s not a “story”
You're welcome! I liked those 2 dramas too. Other examples would be Joy of Life. Even costume dramas with fantasy elements like The Sleepless Princess need a logical explanation for their premise.

You are not wrong to be confused. China has nebulous censorship guidelines. Dramas that have fantasy elements need logic for the fantasy. They worry that the population may think "electric eyes making rich scumbags fall in love with you" actually exist.
In the past, supposedly people tried to time travel because a drama had the character time travel to the past. This is the reason why dramas with suspended disbelief elements have explanations like "the heroine is just writing a story" or "this was all a dream" or "this is a video game VR".
In the interview link, using Google translate, this part explains that this drama was also forced to add "logic" to explain her eyes.

That's her real voice. Initially, I thought it was a bit noisy, but it's ok now. WZQ has his usual dubber, but more recently filmed dramas are his own.
The story is fun! Unexpected laughs and the romance is very sweet.
I have been waiting for this drama since they were filming and it did not disappoint. I loved The Imperial Coroner and seeing the 2 together again is synergistic. My favorite episodes were 12 & 24, but there were too many good scenes throughout. I must applaud the last line of the drama. Sweet, powerful and iconic.
they are filming in Dunhuang now, such a beautiful place: desert, sand dunes and the oasis (Crescent Moon Spring/Mingsha…
His climb up the mountain, how breathless and sweaty he was, how it was all caught on CCTV, and the energetic video released the next day were also so funny and endearing.
