If I could recommend only one Chinese drama it would be this one
If you love slow burn, smart female lead and morally grey male lead this drama is made for you.
This is not only a love story, this is a female centric kind of story. And what a female lead we have here ! Chen Shaoshang is one of the smartest and most relatable character even written in a Chinese drama. We follow her
path to adulthood and through her we also witness the growth of the characters she met through her journey. Not everything is black and white If you love slow burn, smart female lead and morally grey male lead this drama is made for you.
This is not only a love story, this is a female centric kind of story. And what a female lead we have here : Chen Shaoshang is one of the smartest and most relatable character ever written . She has a military lineage and being unwilling abandoned by her parents who have to fight for the nation, she is bullied by her aunt and her grandmother who promised her parents to take of her in their absence, as she grows up in a hostile environment, she is forced to count only on herself to survive hence why she is a very independent lady.
When her parents come back, it doesn’t go as smoothly for her as we could imagine. We follow her path into adulthood and through her we witness her growth but also the development of the characters she met during her journey. We also witness the solace she gains from the relationships she builds along her way in the search of the love she lacked during childhood. Not everything is black and white and Niaoniao even end up feeling empathy without completely forgiving some of the characters who treated her badly.
Her and Ling Buyi’s love story isn’t an easy one, he falls for her at the first hand side but her love for him is slowly built stone after stone, trials after trials and eventually this love becomes passionate and unshakable. Speaking of Ling Buyi, no one could have make us love this perfectly flawed general more than Wu Lei. What an amazing actor he is ! Probably one of the best of his gen. Just like Shaoshang, Ling Buyi’s childhood was full of traumatizing event we can’t help but slowly fall under the spell of this strong but mysterious general while undiscovering his secrets.
Don’t walk run to watch this you won’t regret it.
