Thoroughly enjoyed this ❤️ It was 'original' and thought provoking.
This was an awesome Mystery Romance, which I thoroughly enjoyed.Its not the normal trope of 'being transported into a novel' etcetera etcetera. It was 'original' and thought provoking. I couldn't stop at the end of an episode unless I was extremely tired and had to go to sleep.
When I was thinking of the rating for this series, I couldn't think of anything that I would have changed if I was the script writer, so I give it a 10/10.
The main characters were portrayed very well by the respective actors and I will see if there's other series's in which they are also the main leads.
Rewatch: Very likely as I really enjoyed it.

Excellent series❤️❤️ with roller-coaster of emotions.
SPOILER ALERTI would have given a 10 rating if it wasn't open ended, even if it were to be a sad ending. It doesn't appear that there will be follow-up according to the news articles (as at 21 September 2023) which is unimaginable.....
Draw back..... The last 4 minutes of the final episode. Open ending which ended with Zi Yu waiting for Yan to return and at the final seconds of the episode hearing the doors opening....
Back to what I think of the series:
Story 9 (taking into account the open ending) a great plot with lots of twists which kept the viewer engaged and also gave very subtle hints on certain things. At times I didn't want to watch the next episode because I will then finish it too quickly. Roller-coaster of emotions and routed for the main couple as well as Jin Fan and Zhi Shang. Cried with deaths of family members of the Gong Family as well Han Ya Si and Yun's 'sister'.
Acting: 9 in my opinion for all Main actors as well Jolin Jin (loved her so much), Tian Jia Rui (he did a great job of portraying Yuan Zhi) and of course Sun Chen Jun.
Production and Visual FX : 10 loved all the costumes and different sets / backdrops - everything was beautiful
OST: 10 Beautiful songs and Sound effects were great.
Will definitely Rewatch. I'll just make up my own ending!
