One of the worst dramas I've ever watched
This drama was utterly disappointing. The scriptwriter and director seemed amateurish.The script was weak and nonsensical, and the acting of some supporting characters was overly comedic and exaggerated. There is no chemistry between male lead and female lead. It's one of the worst dramas I've ever watched.
The only redeeming qualities were the performances of Luo Yun Xi and Sebrina Chen. Their talents were completely wasted on this silly drama.

Repetive storyline and horrible background music
The storyline feels repetitive and unengaging. The female lead (FL) is constantly harmed, only to be saved by the second male lead (2ML), while the main male lead (ML) perpetually arrives too late. This overused plot cycle makes the series predictable and monotonous.The background music is one of the worst I've encountered in Chinese dramas. It often clashes with the scenes, completely ruining the mood. For example, in emotional moments where the actors are meant to convey sadness, the music is oddly cheerful, making the performances feel out of sync. It's as if the music director is completely tone-deaf to the tone of the scenes.
The worst performance comes from Baili Weisheng, particularly in the scene where his character discovers his mother is still alive. His reaction comes across as dumb and wooden, making an emotionally charged moment feel flat and uninspired.

Stupid drama by idiot writer
The drama suppose to show smart main couple solving crimes together but the idiot writer made the drama and main couple look so stupid with most of the time wasted on stupid misunderstandings and childish quarrels between the main couple.The idiot writer seem to write this stupid drama without using any brain cell to think whether the plot is logical.
Dropped at Ep 15 as it is unbelievable that the writer so idiotly turned a talented female lead from a suppose smart investigator into a brainless, reckless and ungrateful spoilt damsel.
Stop wasting time on idiot writer that written stupid drama.

The Journey of Growth: Forged by Fires, Nurtured by Wisdom
Watching Story of the Pear Girl is an inspiring and thought-provoking experience, one that resonates deeply with me because of the heartfelt journey of its female lead and the profound mentorship that shapes her path. The drama beautifully depicts her evolution from a lowly slave to a smart trader through the guidance of two contrasting mentors, each embodying a distinct approach to nurturing her growth.One mentor (first male lead) embodies the belief that true strength comes from facing fires and life’s challenges directly, allowing her to stumble, experience pain, and learn through her own trials and failures. This “sink or swim” approach, though tough and sometimes unforgiving, empowers her to develop courage, independence, resilience, and a resourceful spirit that only hard-earned experiences can forge. It speaks to the notion that growth often comes from stepping into the unknown, and embracing mistakes and failures, no matter how daunting.
In contrast, her other mentor (second male lead) embraces a gentler, more protective approach, stepping in to shield her from potential dangers and pitfalls. This approach may creates a safety net, ensuring she feels secure and supported. However, it raises questions about whether sheltering someone too much can keep them from self-discovery, fully realizing their potential, and strength. It could also stifling independence and resilience that is only forged through struggle.
The interplay between these two approaches weaves a powerful narrative that goes beyond simple storyline. It delves into the essence of personal growth—how the paths we take and the guidance we receive can shape not only who we are but who we become. It is a mirror to our own lives and choices, reminding us that growth can be found in both the storms we brave and the hands that hold us steady, and how both are essential in the journey of becoming one’s best self.
