The author's character development is superb. Whether it's the female lead's clear-headed and resolute escape, the male lead's eccentric yet courageous and resourceful nature, the charming and loyal (pretending to be weak but actually being cunning) Shen Zhou, the world-saving and indifferent Heng Heng, or the timid yet hardworking and loyal Cui Wei… the plot is also very engaging. I look forward to the later developments regarding the female lead's relationship with her former senior, Heng Heng, and the female lead's attitude towards the male lead, or the male lead's change of heart towards the female lead.
