Summer that ended early

I enjoyed this drama alot but there were alot of plot inconsistencies and then the cuts and unedited scenes made it harder to understand. I really enjoyed the teen arc especially when they ran away. That was very cute and It felt like teenagers were running away leaving behind no worries in the world. But in the adult arc, the only complain I have other than the plot was the reconciliation episode. The intimate scenes were just censored anyway and we all know China's Censorship System so I wish considering that they would've given us a proper scene of them reconciling and they both broke eachother's heart so badly so how come the hate didn't even last an episode? I really wanted to see a hate era and then a reconciling scene where they tell eachother about what really happened 10 years back and why Zhou Wan broke up with him. But suddenly he knew that his grandpa was involved? They could've given us 12-13 episodes of the adult arc and I really wish we could've had a proper wedding. But other than that, everything was perfect. I enjoyed their teen arc and when Zhou Wan proposed and the breakup arc was so sad 😭 I genuinely felt bad seeing lu xixiao cry. The ending was perfect 💞

WORTH THE WATCH.

Pursuit of jade is the first chinese drama to satisfy me this much, I enjoyed every single episode, the cinematography, the scenery, the outfits, the detailing. Everything was to perfection and I loved every single detail about the show, the osts were perfect as they gave the chinese traditional music vibes. I enjoyed every single scene. The director did amazing, Zou Yue did amazing with the storyline and adaptation of the original novel, the actors acted precisely and frankly, I enjoyed the chemistry of the first couple as well as the second couple. The character development didn't disappoint either or I really thought that they would ruin a few characters. The loyalty of the ministers towards their state really moved me. No matter what, they were trying to find a right ruler to preserve their state. Wei Yan was righteous though his actions to prove that we're not. Killing is bad and no action could justify it but his side of the story was valid too, I could understand why he did do stuff he shouldn't have and grand tutor li was utterly useless. Qi Min was a pitiful character too, it's just his circumstances which lead him to be the way he was, he wasn't raised properly but his conscience did know the difference between right and wrong and his wrong can never become his right. Yu Qian Qian, a passing time traveller deserved to go back to her realm, I felt bad for her because she did nothing to have sought the cause and effects that severe but then again everyone has their own fate which they have to fulfil. Xie Zheng, Xie Jiuheng orMarquis of Wu'an, his character was truly up to the expectations, I enjoyed how Zhang Ling He protrayed his character and as for Fan Chang Yu or Wei Chang Yu, her character was written beautifully, her character development was perfect and it really shows a illiterate person has prove herself and educate herself as she embarks on her journey, Tian Xi Wei did outstanding with her performance and I look forward to more of her work. Overall, the cast was perfect, everything had been selected carefully and was persecuted with perfection. This has to be my top chinese drama. I look forward to more adaptations like these and I look forward to the future works of the director and screenwriter as well as the actors. Pursuit of Jade was truly a masterpiece 🫀.
