I only started this today 15-02-2022, but I’m actually really enjoying this! - I remember starting it a while ago and I kept seeing comments on how annoying the Female Lead girl was, so I actually stopped watching it for a while, but then I decided to watch it.

I love a good murder mystery show and, it’s actually soo good! It does give a little like chinese version of sherlock holmes vibes. Which I loved watching that so, that's why I love how like every episode is a different crime and it’s not like one big long crime happening, where you know who it is, but it's like different crimes that happen!

I’m starting to slowly get to know the characters now, and their backgrounds so its nice that it's a light hearted drama!

Ep13 - Not sure how I feel about it, I still enjoy the detective and what happens, but I'm finding the female lead Bai Youning, slightly annoying! At the start I was like, oh she's not bad but then I think her temper is a little annoying, always like frustrated at things when it's not her way.. and always so annoyed at her dad! Being stubborn, which is a little annoying. But I do think she is really pretty, and I like it when she has her hair straight and not the curls! She looks a lot prettier with her long ponytail.

But I do enjoy watching the two main guys, I love the bromance they have! It's soo funny to watch their brotherly love for each other as they do detective work together.. Qiao Chusheng one is just like super chill and always looks soo cool with authority, super stern and gets things done! He's soo good-looking! - Always this cool face, and rarely smiles!

Then sherlock like Lu Yao, who never has enough money, but has like the brains and seems to just love materialistic things! - He has like a joke and brains. The one reason I watched this was because of the actor Hu Yitian, I usually watch him in romance shows and he's always very quiet, or like cool! - But I liked how different he is in this, like a playful type that you don't usually see, another side of him that I enjoyed watching!

Ep20 - I think one think I do love about this drama, is the amazing sets they always have. It's like historical, nearing modern since their outfits are so sophisctaed. - It definitely feels like a series more, where you could have multiple seasons, and like many many cases.

I also enjoy watching them as a trio, and find them really funny when they are all together, they seem to compliment each other.. Bai Youning, who knows a lot about the people from her job, and then Lu Yao, who literally somehow knows everything, about everything! And then the face and basically the main detective who like has the big say would be Qiao Chusheng. - I think the story gets better around Ep20 plus, - it seems like the three of them are more immersed in the cases together!

Ep30! Spoiler here.... I mean the kiss between LuYao & Bai Youning were pretty cute! - In that situation if you haven't watched anything else besides this scene! Yes it was soo cute, Because who doesn't love a romance, but I really I wasn't feeling it! I did know they kind of liked each other but, I thought they gave off more friends vibe than anything. And Bai Youning was being a little TOO Protective - through the whole thing I think in my opinion anyways!

Ep34: I actually find it CRAZY, how all the crimes were related, and it become like a big ending to it! How smart it was, that it all came together at the end. But one thing now I realised is how crazy the sister is ..

Finished 25-3-2020 Ending Review: I'd like to say the last few episodes that to kind of wrap up everything was interesting! - I enjoyed the solving crimes part. But I felt like the build up to the wedding was alright and sort of a little random, they only really seemed like a couple near the end.. But I still don't really see it! I think I preferred if they were all like really good close friends, and then like they all ended up going to London & Paris on a trip together or something.

I did not expect the ending, I had to like re-watch a bit before because I thought I missed something! I definitely feel like they're probably will be like a Season 2 sort of thing, since the ending gave like: Is he happy because he can go back and solve crimes?? What's on the important note?? I want to watch more but I can't .. Other than that, I did really enjoy this drama nonetheless!
