Wasted Opportunity for the Cast

I remember watch this drama last year and as far i remember this is the first version of the novel and try to rewatch for this review. I like the chemistry between Zeng Hui and Chai Huixin. The ML is somewhat douchebag and FL is just plainly foolish. What i never like on this film is kind of stalled because they only tell Female Lead was abducted to Myanmar (There is no season two, prepared to be disappointed) and its kind of ironic because latter versions have completed story and refined plot but the chemistry are subpar compared to Zeng Hui and Chai Huixin. 50:50 to recommend this because it giving bitter reality of this stalled project.

FL was still dumb on her second life.

I watched this in Dramabox since most of Ye Ting's drama is more fast update in here and he didn't have any chemistry with Meng Lu.

This drama tried to cram in way too many elements. The first half was good, but in the second half everything suddenly became a mess. Too many verbal sparring that loses the focus and it become a snoozefest.

FL in first life is an idiot in her previous life chasing after a married man, giving blood of her daughter to the man's daughter and nearly killing her, harming her own husband and children for the other man when the man has a wife and is always scheming with the scumbag.

She really does not deserve the ML and children. Even after being reborn, she still never gives a clear explanation to ML and is entangled everywhere with the other man though she is trying to make up to her family for her previous life mistreatment of them. She really does not deserve her loving family and their hatred of her is real founded.

Not worth watching even for hardcore fans.

Quite bad drama even if you watch in that time and this time.

I watched this in 2024 and i know this plot was quite trend among short drama.

Plot is about FL who become substitute bride for her sister to marry disabled ML. FL only know her sister was having affair with FL boyfriend so she agree to become bride for disabled ML who turned out to be FL boyfriend uncle. When FL have wedding night FL ex wants to rape her and suddenly ML open his eye and scare FL ex. ML family suggest FL to get pregnant but ML don't want FL to be pregnant and will kill her baby if FL get pregnant. FL was actually pregnant lying she had abortion and using her ex name for medical checkup.

The acting and chemistry was that bad. It feels like you watching C+ drama assignment in your highschool since iit was obviously on-budget drama and yeah fake kisses strikes again.

The only decent acting is ML sister acting in here. Overall this drama was bad.

Amazing without romance

I watched this since i don't mood of romance drama. Yunmiao was refreshing theme from Chinese short drama.

I always have beef about Wang Xiaoyi intonation (If she fixed it it would she would be perfect) but her acting perfectly captures the detached and aloof a cultivator, giving her a touch of ethereal beauty that I really like.

This is first time i found Wang Xiaoyi perfect combo (not in romance) and its Xue Binhong. I liked their boss-employee dynamic duo in here making this drama more watchable.

A very novel theme, a grand worldview, and impressive character design in this short series.

Recommended to watch.

Fake Upright FL

I watch it because of Zhang Beixi even i dont like his character in here. I never fans of Li Ruoqi acting and yeah she cannot make me like the character.

I know the plot is quite common FL and ML break up and 4 years later they met when FL tried to make love with SML. FL get hymen operation to assure she is virgin lmao.

Genuinely felt bad for SML, He got into jail because her father did crime. His best friend backstabbed him to get his dream girl His dream girl just used him for revenge. Only his character deserve justice.

The ending was too hypocrite for me she want to get feminist stand by her but her action is saying otherwise always dependent on men. Ugh.

Not recommended. Full of FL hypocrisy.

Lack chemistry and ML was stiff as wood

Actually i watched this drama last year and realized Qiu Zhe Fu was on Chai chai drama and this is his debut as ML. For the main character debutant, he is stiff as rock and Wen Zhi Cheng stole the spotlight for the acting and chemistry with Zhai Xingran. Actually the ML and FL characterization was solid until SML found out ML identity it feels too rushed. The plot was actually generic about FL felt out with SML and fell into ML arms who is SML uncle. The chemistry between the couple was too awkward and felt Zhai Xingran was tried all out and i feel bad for her. Only for hardcore fans of the main leads.

Normal Childhood Sweetheart drama.

I watched this drama for Wen Yu last year and most of Bai Ye works didnt make me satisfied except this one (One of her best work to me). Even both of them didn't have youth feeling but their acting was quite passable to watch without being greasy. It was classic Childhood Sweethearts trop who always bickers not some story of loving the wrong person and then regretting it. The casting is very suitable, and Wen Yu has a great feel for the male lead. There are no melodramatic plots, and SFL always ends up losing more than she gains. Her father is a scumbag , but he's not a scumbag to his daughter. She 's a normal, albeit somewhat eccentric, character who doesn't take on the role of a typical student.

In the early stages, when the FL doesn't understand her own feelings, she's a bit greedy, wanting more than she has. She's playing with her childhood sweetheart while also pursuing her senior aka SML. The line spoken to SFL was also very manipulative, like, "If you were his girlfriend, I would stay away, but you're not yet." You're always clinging to the ML, how can anyone else pursue you? It's like you're tied to one while pursuing the other . Luckily, she confirmed her feelings for the ML quite quickly.

Recommended if you like simple childhood sweetheart drama.
