decent fantasy/modern mix

At first it was confusing took a few eps to kind of understand that it was all in Qi Chunjiao's head when she got knocked in the head by the falling sign and had been in a coma so she dreamt of one of those fantasy style type worlds which felt real and had those she loved appeared as her fantasy characters. It was interesting seeing them do a mix of reality vs fantasy showing moments of her real life as the girl who had 3 men like brothers even though 2 of them Duan Yu, Lu ZiZeng were the main male leads who both loved her both in the fantasy and real world.
LZZ though he was and felt more protective brother but he lingered for her to love him as more than that even at the end he hoped she could see him as something more than just someone she can ask for help with even though both of them knew at that point their love wasn't the romantic type, the fantasy version of him was more in love with her though not as a brotherly way but desired bc of some mystical fate he learned that she was meant to be his bride and changing their fate was his way of trying to be with her but failed at the end when she changed it by finally waking up from the dream. Felt bad for him dude is good looking and in both worlds just like in costume and regular looks he slays both versions so well. Wanted more of him hehehe. He was bad ass and tough on the outside in the fantasy world wit the martial arts stuff and in the real world he like a teddy bear who was there for QC.
Duan Yu SMH that boy the real world ver was just (I like Guo JunChen he's a good actor) but character-wise felt pitty for him bc dude is smart rather be more academic and shy towards QC that he missed his chance with her, QC really had her heart set on him but he chose to run to America to study rather value the love he had from her, even the talk with LZZ at the end he knew he made the wrong choice to run from her like that back then and now he wanted to go forward but QC moved on from him she just wanted to live whether as a single person for the rest of her life, DY was a coward but the fantasy ver DY seemed clueless when it came to love too but he went along with it, he was drawn to her and she brought her real world habits into it wit the rings as being symbol of love she can have wit him that she didn't have wit the real DY and experience the pain of being lied to and hurt by him too when he prisoned herand tortured her which like damn was cruel but the fantasy world wanted that ver of her to suffer bc she was like some kind of curse to the Duan liniage and he had no choice but to do it til he took her out and they both felt heart broken mostly her when she left and DY started to see he was falling in love with her as they were separated and when they met again he wanted to win her back which showed and even when bad ver of LZZ changed the fantasy both met again their love was still there no matter the change they would find their way back to each other but her fantasy became reality and she saw that DY was just the love she knew she couldn't get in the real world even though he knew her love for him was there but she just ended up wanting to live in the moment not tangle in love.
Ruan SiQiong oh sweet gentleman in both ver, fantasy ver also martial arts man but also a medicine man who cared for her, real world ver just a doctor and smart also cared for her just a nice man overall, sad the fantasy ver lost his life twice one when the sword was pulled out and changed bc of LZZ but that 2nd ver he was more of regular man who had no martial skills so bad LZZ killed him overall. He was like a big bro to her who could see DY loved her but wanted to protect her from him, the real world ver didn't really have much scenes so hard to say but he still a doc overall.

If your looking for something to pass through this would be one of those and if you like the mix of the modern life vs fantasy costume world this seemed decent enough had moments of LOL's and 4 good looking men who you can stare at and wonder if they should have their own drama lol, it has that romance not heavy but subtle with the fantasy ver of Qi ChunJiao as Gu Jing Qiao and Duan Yu, the fantasy world was more interesting than seeing the modern world though with the martial arts scenes and weapons fight and seeing the men in the costumes, not that the modern ver of the men weren't good looking but something about the styles worked better for them in costumes. Irene Song was an interesting choice as lead, she seemed to have a good amount of chem with each of the guys enough to watch how funny she can bring moments alive with some giggles but the dubbed voices not sure worked as well, cant tell if they all had voices dubbed by themselves or done by another voice actor but its weird when real voices vs non can feel hard to like. Dont get me wrong not sure if the actors actually did use their real voices or not sometimes its hard to tell in the dramas since some actors use voice dubbers due to production or so.
