If you want to see ghost theme drama, it just appear of first scene and they dissapeared.

It's been long time since i watch Jia Yixuan drama (even her dramas with Chen Si that i was anticipated, i still never complete it for some reason) and yeah i got this from Tik Tok Recommendation.

Jia Yixuan's acting is okay; she portrays two different personalities well, one pure and innocent (Bai He), the other ghostly and alluring (A Lian). Guo Haojun plays FL's childhood friends who secretly loves her but due to his identity, he's never confessed his love. After learning the FL's true identity, to allow her to use him without burden and willing to sacrifice himself to help her set up a scheme. The chemistry between the leads are quite fine to watch.

The plot is actually good but they cannot executed well, trying to create a twist, misunderstanding that the younger sister is the bad guy but it turns out she's the good one. But the result is just so-so. There are more another errors. The show says it's ten years after Bai He's death, but Lord Wen's appearance hasn't changed at all over ten years.

The plot logic is somewhat inconsistent; the blood pact mentioned in the show isn't clearly explained. FL casually revealed her identity to the villain without any fear of being plotted against or retaliated against. Few of supporting actors acting were awkward; especially the FL younger sister.

The only highlight is the ghostly appearance in the first scenes.. It feels like it was just a gimmick. I came in because of this setting, but I was disappointed with this. It would be better if they create revenge drama with ordinary person from beginning.

Actual concept of this drama was quite potential, but it wasn't utilized well, resulting in a somewhat chaotic production. The editing was so sloppy making this drama was disjointed.

Maybe if you are fans of the actor, you could enjoy this.

Scriptwriter loves to add bullying sprinkle on his/her creation

I watched this drama when i was on Zhao Caizi binge watch and realized the male lead is Zhang Yiyang. Both leads have decent acting also their chemistry was fine but the FL characterization was the problem and the bullying was too severe and the first meeting was considered to be rape.

Actually this was the first one where I saw the ML actually apologize for the rape and say FL has the option to have ML arrested. It's very clear in his mind what he did. In other dramas, I only see the CEO apologize and that's it, and everything is forgotten. However beautiful the story may be, we can't forget that ML abused FL, and this type of scene has become fashionable in dramas. Apart from that part about how they met, the drama is ok.

Only recommended for hardcore fans of both actor.

Being scammed by the premises.

I watched this drama on December 2025 and the plots reminds me of Nakuna Hara Chan (2013) but with the difference ML that FL created was more aggressive but i feel the premises was not being well-executed and the plot was disjointed. Its normal if average watcher will be confused. It feels like i was being scammed by drama premises. There is no emotional moment in this drama. It feels so flat.

The earlier plot can be seen as the FL losing her memory due to an accident and forgetting the ML her muse. Her amnesia is related the death of one of her parents ML in another universe was angry why he was being abandoned by FL. This constant tugging between ML and FL was annoying. ML claims to be seeking revenge, but he's completely love-struck, constantly creating an environment that makes ML and FL feel like they're having an affair.

SML was initially okay, but to moralize the main couple's relationship, he was forced into scenes of cheating and neglecting the FL, causing the character settings and actions to contradict each other, severely impacting the story's flow and giving the impression that the acting was just for the sake of the plot—very jarring.

Personally not a fans of Cheng Zi-Li Meng Ran pair but the chemistry in this drama was so unbearable to watch.
Perhaps hardcore fans could enjoy this drama but i am being scammed by the premises, i am not enjoying this drama.

Quite good at first half but the ending didn't resolve the problem

I watched this version first and the plot is more complete and detailed. FL's inner thoughts are portrayed delicately, and her interactions with ML are frequent and effective. The visual quality is good, and the opening shots of FL's background are well-done. The characters' behavior is logically consistent with the established plot. I quite like Li Shengxuan madness acting.

When the FL had relapse moment, I could feel her second personality emerge even through the screen; it felt very realistic. Li Shengxuan's facial expressions during the episode were also excellent, without any exaggerated facial movements.

The weakness in this drama; the chemistry between the Wu Zhuxi and Li Shengxuan dont really strong as other version. The ending is poorly handled-it didn't completely resolve the time loop and reincarnation issue.

Plot was bad but the making out was great

I watched this just forsake of Zhang Shan and Wang Xuan. Both are great kisser and the plot was bad.

FL has always suffered bullying from her family of origin, being switched at birth by her biological parents. She's quite pathetic after returning home, but thankfully the ML gives her fairness and favoritism. The kiss between these two was so passionate and intense, their eyes were practically glued to each other, making the viewer feel we should not interrupt their making out scene. The Green Tea Sister aka SFL was so annoying.

The cons is FL's parents and brother didn't receive any punishment in this drama. Also, SFL committed suicide, and the way her parents were grieving at her suicide scene clearly showed that SFL was more important to them than FL It's very likely that the parents would blame the FL for the SFL, so I think this aspect was handled very poorly.

Only for hardcore fans of the actors.

Wang Haozhen looks to tired in this drama

I watched it for Wang Haozhen but he is obviously look tired in this drama. But after fast-forwarding through it all, I was utterly blown away by the plot. This script really feels like it was created by deadliner – where's the logic?

FL approached the ML to raise money for her sister's surgery, and the difference in their social status and impure motives created a lot of conflict. But who would have thought they'd fall in love so inexplicably, only to break up and get back together again due to some nonsensical misunderstandings? Fast forward to 3 years later, ML's family is in troubles, his career slump, and FL's hardships are all glossed over, leaving the characters hollow and their motivations incomprehensible.

Actually Wang Haozhen and Guan Xin chemistry are still pass to watch but the plot is not for it.

Only for hardcore fans.

If you want to see down-to-earth story watch this

I watched this since i watched the season 2 first than i tried the season 1 and i understand why it was trending.

No mistresses, no white moonlight, no domineering CEOs, no time travel, just the simple life of the 1980s. There is no kissing scene it just camera tricks that wont make this drama rating down. I quite like Sun Yiran acting in here and Wang Daotie was stable in this drama.The key is this drama the supporting characters, including the two children, neighbors, etc have very delicate and vivid acting. There are also many heartwarming lines and narrations reminds me of Morning Drama from NHK.

Plot is simple about ML and his daughter comes to village and met FL and her son. ML and FL fell in love and they married when ML discovered FL was divorce and has nowhere to live.

The drama progresses naturally, depicting the union of the two families, from strangers to gradually becoming familiar, to accepting each other, and finally to relying on each other. Although simple, it is not melodramatic and is full of touching moments.

Recommended to watch.

New plot and decent acting.

I watched this because Yi Hang and the plot was quite new the reborn ML x transmigrated FL. Guo Xin Yu is perfect for this role, working class FL who trapped in ancient time. The costumes, makeup, and props are excellent. Even the supporting casts doing great job too.

It's a sweet and angsty story with a happy ending. In her past life, the original FL conspired with the ML's mother, the Empress Dowager, and his younger brother, the Regent, to poison him, helping the Regent seize the throne. ML vowed never to be so compassionate again and was reborn.

New FL is a medical master's student, transmigrates into the novel, wanting to protect the kind-hearted ML. However, she encounters the newly reborn ML at the beginning, and her beloved becomes a tyrant, starting a hellish survival mode. FL has to juggle both the ML and the Empress Dowager, barely surviving. Fortunately, FL is smart, quickly deducing that the ML is a reincarnated person. The process ML gradually falling in love with the FL doesn't feel abrupt. The moment i like from this drama is about FL and her father, Prime Minister was really touching,

However, the later parts are a bit forced to add the duration and the kissing scenes are below average and the chemistry between the main leads are barely minimum.

Still decent watch.

I disliked the ML character

OK I was saving this drama in my shelf since i didn't have mood to watch Miqi at that time and I watched this last week.

The actual drama was below average to my liking and yeah the voice was being dubbed has not making this drama better. Wang Haozhen still delivers his acting but Miqi is quite weak on terms of acting too bad i quite like her looks. Considering Miqi she never do real kiss (there is only one but yeah she always do tricks on kissing scene).

The blood-drawing trope is so uncool! Treating it as a way to repay a debt of gratitude is even more uncool. I forced myself since i am quite lenient person. Fortunately FL was smart by using pig blood. ML was quite bad person and didn't deserve FL at all.

Only recommended to hardcore fans.

They should connect this season with season 2 instead

The overall quality is still above average, although it didn't surprise me, it's still okay.

It would be even better if this season were combined with the second season. Only the dramatic conflict at the end of the second season would be retained, with the third season featuring sweet interactions and a resolution, plus a bit more of the older brother + sweet girl storyline, and the decent guy + firecracker sister storyline.

SFL finally gets divorced this season, but given her personality, she probably won't even realize what she did wrong in the end.

I feel like this season is probably the real last one. The ending includes the ML's confession and love letter, and their wedding—a happy ending!

It was nice trilogy despite the flaws. Recommended to watch.

Not Usual Reincarnation Drama

I just randomly watch for Lin Jingye and found this drama.

I initially thought the plot would be a bit angsty, but it wasn't at all. The FL is remarkably clear-headed after her rebirth. Li Jingye perfectly captures the clarity after rebirth. Zhang Liren needs to catch up to his acting since his expression looks same in every scene.

In her previous life, FL used every means to force marriage to pursue ML, only to be met with disgust and depression. Upon being reborn, she had only one thought: stay away from him and get a divorce. ML was shocked to see FL sudden change and he become eavesdrop enjoyer to hear every FL plans. Even when the mistress was come, FL just teach her how to get ML instead of throwing tantrum like her first life. ML begins to relentlessly pursue FL, only to discover that he has long harbored feelings for her.

Personally I don't understand why FL in first life was so infatuated with ML since there is not enough backstory about them before and never think she was good person in first life.

Still decent to watch.

Broken soul entangled to each other

I was quite skeptical with Li Ruoqi drama since two of her drama with Zhang Beixi and Charon make me dissatisfied and tried this as last resort. And it was far better than two dramas that i mentioned even it was not her best drama.

Both the ML and FL are the second children who never been favored in their original families. One is after power, and the other is after love, so they hit it off and start a sweet new life after marriage. I like FL and ML buddies they are supportive circle for the leads.

FL's character is very clear-headed. Her transition from having ulterior motives to genuinely caring for the ML is very natural and not awkward at all. Li Ruoqi should take role that show vulnerable side of FL instead since it was her forte instead getting righteous FL.

Li Shengjie is good at playing good nature ML and his smiling was a healing for FL. I like his chemistry with Li Ruoqi feel so natural and sweet.

The FL sister part was not that good i was fast forwarding when she appeared.

Recommended to watch.

Another tortuous drama to FL

I watched this when i was on Huang Yunyun marathon drama last year and i don't recommend this despite FL and Child actor great acting in here. Jin Jiayu acts naturally as scumbag.

This plot is generic is about FL who wants save the seriously injured ML, was forced to leave and raise their child alone. Seven years later, their child has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. FL seeks out ML, wanting to have a second child to save the child, but the ML harbors resentment because he mistakenly believes FL abandoned him seven years ago.

There is not good thing and character development on ML and the plot hole he supposed to be disabled but somehow he can walk freely and suddenly he is on his wheelchair again. FL was too weak and she falls into damsel in distress again.

Avoid this.

Hope in the season 4 they wont use Wang Peiyan character as a joke anymore.

Finally i have mood to writing review about Tainai and the greatest things in this drama are supporting casts especially the brothers (the grandpa's also included in this) so it was expected to getting popular.

Personally Li Keyi as Rong Yun was average because if the supporting cast was from unknown actors the result is absolutely different.

The earlier episodes had some flaws; for example, the woman was pregnant, and a DNA test could have been done directly, but they dragged it out for several episodes. The later plot was good even they added so many F4 reference, Yuyin scene in Good Girl, etc but maybe the jokes didn't make me laugh or i was too tensed when i watch this.

Chen Tianxiang in here was so refreshing and his role was an significant role quite like his tandem with Wu Tianhao. Personally Meng Na character was unnecessary in this story and her acting is her comfort zone. One of the cons of this drama is they are over the line with Wang Pei Yan slapstick joke and his character was like the idiom frog in a coconut shell by scriptwriter.

Still decent watch and personally Tinghuadao are milking this series and making Tainai 4 with Cai Xinyang as Li Keyi's love interest.

Recommended to watch for stellar supporting casts.
