I was captivated by the story from the start because of the first episode that makes you want to watch and see the storyline development.
I loved the cast, it was one of the strongest points in the drama, I am not into Chinese but this wasn't a bad drama to watch.
It has a fair story with lots of drama; I do remember seeing a lot of dramatic scenes near the end. There was fantasy and cute romance too, if you don't mind it getting really slow in the middle then this is a nice drama to pass time with.

I simply could not continue this drama. No offense to the actors and actresses - I've loved Barbie in other dramas and have no issue with her acting ability, or that of Luo Show or the other that make up the cast. What I did have issue with was the characterization of the lead characters.

In all truth, although Xin Lei's character annoyed me at first, I was willing to give her a chance to change once her circumstances changed. But it was her denial of reality that finally made me reach the point where I no longer liked her even a little bit. Your parents go bankrupt and leave the country, leaving you to fend for yourself. Your home is foreclosed and you're forced to move in with your personal secretary. So what do you do? You adamantly insist that the "resort" your parents left you a key to is yours, even when it turns out that said "resort" is actually a small, run-down house that belongs to someone else - there's even the deed to prove it! And THEN you go and use your credit cards (which should've been frozen or closed by this point) to buy $100 shoes and a FREAKIN' PIANO. Really? Who's supposed to pay off those credit cards? And what does Qin Lang do? He thinks she's CUTE! Gah!

Perhaps Xin Lei's character does change eventually, but I simply could not stomach any more at this point. Maybe I missed out on important plot points, but by episode 5 I couldn't make myself care any more. I'm not one to easily give up on a drama once I've started it, but this one has got to be one of the worst I've ever tried to watch.

This is a really sweet story and it's funny to have the princess and the pauper type relationship between the two main characters and their clashing personalities. This isn't a story with deep plot lines and twists, but it was rather consistant throughout not overly exciting but it's a very light drama that you can turn your brain off and watch.
