Curator note
Overall, it was pretty good. The first half had a comfortable rhythm, but it was a little rushed towards the end. The characters of the husband and wife were both very likable.

Curator note
It's good to watch, and the plot is very attractive. The only flaw is in the character creation. Many characters, including the male and female protagonists, are actually very well created. It is also true when viewed as a group portrait. Only the female protagonist's sister and the male partner named Wang have problems. They are a bit forced to serve the emotional line of the male and female protagonists, and some necessary foreshadowing is missing. As a result, the transformation and darkening of the characters' personalities and thoughts before and after seem a bit blunt. However, the flaws are not concealed. Overall, this is a highly readable novel. Highly recommended!
