Twin switching : they might play with your head.

What happens when the evil twin impersonates the lover of an heiress, in order to seize a fortune ?

I enjoyed the twin switching and they misled me sometimes. Thinking Zhuo was Yue and vice versa. This story about a race for power and money amidst jealousy and love kept me glued to my screen as it was airing.
I liked the acting and the pacing as well as the story. Although the ending was rushed to my personal taste. But it was still a big surprise.

Pros:
- Male Lead, Leo Yang was great in this drama. I pretty much always recognised who was who between the twins, everytime.
- Female Lead is a strong character, well played by Li Huan.
- Harem : 3 bachelorette 1 prince. That part was hilarious at times.
- Good pacing.

Cons :
- Cliché : the evil grand mother. I wish we could avoid that.
- The ending feels rushed to my taste.
- Some extraordinary/ almost unbelivable elements which make the story a little over the top. But this is a mini drama. I am not watching Agatha Christie. It is sometimes hilarious. I forgive them.

Overall:
A simple plot but a lot of twists and turns, and the drama plays with your mind when the twin are switching and also with the cliffhangers at the end of the episodes.
I liked the drama and I recommend it, if you like to play hide and seek, looking at the ML micro expressions to guess the rest of the story. It is an entertaining drama.
