A lot better than I thought it would be!
I was hesitant on watching this drama at first because of the plot, however, I gave it a shot and it was actually a lot better than I expected! I was so hooked that I finished this drama in 3 days! It was like a star cross lovers type of show since Xiao Qi is an alien and Fan Leng is a human. How do you possibly expect the two to be together? That's what got me curious to watch it.
The drama revolved around heavy romance and comedy that had a pretty good start at the beginning. There were a couple times where I felt a bit uncomfortable or just felt embarrassed for Xiao Qi when she does really bizarre things that no woman would have the nerve to do to a guy upfront before (in the beginning part of the drama you will see what I mean). But that's part of the comical side of this drama which is one of the pros to it. It's not just all heavily on romance. And as much as how cute the talking turtle was, however, it just really felt unrealistic and unnecessary to have a freaking talking turtle. But it wasn't too much of a bugger for me. The turtle did play a role in certain events that happen towards the end of the drama.
Of course, what's a drama without your typical love triangles. The love triangles weren't too bad compared to some other toxic love triangles I've seen. Fan Leng's ex, Jiang Xue, can't seem to get over her dying obsessive love over Fan Leng and is pretty in denial thinking that she can win him back. I mean, I get how she feels since they didn't technically break up bc he doesn't remember her at all due to his illness. But dang girl, she just went too far in this drama to the point you just get frustrated with her.
The chemistry between the two main leads was great. They had lots of intimate scenes that makes you really hope that they would stay together in the end. Some scenes they had were sorta cringey to the point I got chills run down my body lol. And as much as how emotional the last two episodes were because you don't know how it will end, I surprisingly didn't cry XD. Xiao Qi frustrated me at times because she was basically pulling him in and pushing him away constantly. Like make up your mind, what's the point of trying to be with him if you're just gonna push him away again. I mean I know she's an alien and all so she didn't want to hurt him so she pushed him away but ugh. It just constantly became like a push and pull thing that Fan Leng was even confused if she wanted to be with him lol. Overall, this was a good drama. I'd recommend you watch it!
