Sometimes interesting, sometimes not

This was an entertaining show but not without some flaws. The biggest one was segmented plot with not fluid transition from one arc to another. The start was promising, a deity crashing into a mortal realm trying to escape from an unwanted marriage. There, she met a sickly mortal and fell in love with him. After she was forced to go back and the mortal died from old age, we found out that the mortal wasn't mortal at all but an ancient god. Their interactions were cute and the parting was rather emotional. After that, not much happened.

After Shenli finally met Xingzhi and found out who he was, the plot was reduced to just their interactions. This would've been ok if the acting adequately portrayed emotions. Whether Zhao Li Ying is Ming Lan, Chu Qiao, or Shenli, she is the same emotionless doll in every role. There is no variety in her acting, which significantly takes away from her chemistry with ML. Lin Geng Xin's acting was a little bit more nuanced. While portraying a stoic god, his emotions where still there in the micro-expressions, which I liked.

When the villain finally showed up, the plot picked up again. Unfortunately, with Xin Yun Lai's terrible acting, Mofang was non-threatening and completely uninteresting. Although, we were supposed to believe that he wasn't the true evil mastermind because he was in love with Shenli, the writers could've done something interesting with him instead of reducing him to a tragic lover.

The last two episodes were the most entertaining. Although, I couldn't care less about Ms. Jin's love story, in these episodes, Shenli and Xingzhi showed the most emotion which looked like the actors broke the roles and played other characters.

Overall, I wouldn't call this a masterpiece by any stretch. It's entertaining and worth watching. Will I rewatch it? Maybe.
