I am a fan of Zhang Yuxi after watching her performance in Guess Who I Am. I was also curious about Liu Xue Yi, who is currently starring in Kill Me, Love Me so I decided to watch this series. After completing this series, I noticed that all leading female characters (Xu Qing You, Fang Qi, Lin Si Yu) had experienced broken stilettos when they were with their love interests!
What I liked:
1) Romance - I really like the dynamic between Qing You and Mo Ling Ze from the start. The sexual tension was killing me especially when Fan Yun Xi was in the picture. Once Qing You & Ling Ze got together, I had butterflies whenever they kissed, held hands and were lovey dovey. They looked visually stunning together.
2) Liu Xue Yi - Oh wow, he fit this role. He gave enough intrigue and charm to his role. Damn he was really good looking playing an investor.
3) Friendship - I like the different friendships shown in this series: i) Qing You-Fang Qi, ii) Ling Ze, Li Sa, and their bandmates A Luo & Bobo.
What I disliked:
1) Tang Xi - I understand why ex partners were featured in romance story but I think this ex went too far. I disliked her for thinking that she owned Ling Ze because she thought she played a role in his successful career. Please, you might have helped at the start but success doesn't happen overnight. Ling Ze is a successful investor because he works damn hard. I also disliked exes who selfishly left their partner and returned to claim their spot without acknowledging their mistake.
2) Mr Xu - Gosh I dislike him at the start when he favoured his former student/Qing You's then boyfriend over his own daughter. He should respect Qing You's decision and give her time to open up.
3) Secondary romance - I found the romance between Fang Qi and Xu Wei hardly convincing. i) Fang Qi was less invested in the emotional aspects of their romantic relationship. I hate it that she was implying the relationship wasn't serious when confronted by Xu Wei's parents. ii) Xu Wei is lacking life experience to be with a woman 8 years older than him.
4) Pacing - Towards the last quarter of the series, I felt bored but I kept going because I wanted to mark this series as 'Complete' as opposed to 'Dropped'.
Favourite scene
The auction engineered by Lin Si Yu but didn't work out her way. The sexual tension between Ling Ze and Qing You - wow!
