Republican-era dramas are not usuallly my tea but for this drama with the Republican setting—the clothes, the atmosphere, the politics, the whole historical backdrop, it made me eat the show up, like the whole historical themes with the triads it actually caught my attention a lot. I genuinely wasn’t expecting to get this obsessed with it. I am familiar with the mml Ryan Ren and I quite like him. But adding the enemies-to-lovers / hate-to-love into the equation, Yeah, I was finished. It's probs o ne of my favourite tropes that exist

SO China has a thing with mini dramas, they are fast paced and easy to get through, so its not always that its balanced in a way. At least for me, its a short coming with having something happen within short episodes, but it can balance it out with the amount of episodes. But well, this one, surprised me with how well-balanced everything was and felt, I ate it up but it didnt have everything at the start nor at the end in a rushed feeling. There was mystery, action, comedy, suspense and romance, but none of it felt like it completely swallowed the others, it didnt feel like I lost interest . It was chaotic when it needed to be, emotional when it needed to be, and romantic without making the entire plot revolve around the romance.

Sidenote: I need to appreciate our fml because she was actually strong, kind, fearless. No sitting around waiting for someone to save her every five minutes like in some dramas, you all know which ones.
