I think this is one of the dramas that does not need to be as long as it is. This is because it kind of drifts off into this confusion near the end that doesn't really match up with what was written before; it's as if they had suddenly changed scriptwriters. At first it did seem to have a lot of potential with the FL(Ma Ke Ai) suffering from mirror touch synesthesia, and being able to see the future through touch with the ML (Xia Yu Xing played by Vin Zhang) being the only one who she can touch without seeing the future.

The majority of the story was mainly about the female lead, Ma Ke Ai using her newfound skill to see the future and try and make the hotel her dad left her to manage profitable and popular again while fighting off a vengeful "friend" of her dad's who wants the hotel for himself. Together with her trusted aides, the male lead, Xia Yu Xing, her best friend Lu Zhen Zhen and Xia Yu Xing's friends, Yang Li and Sun Qian they manage to save the hotel. On the antagonist side, Director Song still resents the FL's dad and vows revenge on him for breaking up his family whilst searching for his long lost son. Perhaps he would have succeeded however his aide, Zhao Qing Feng keeps messing up giving the FL's side to overturn every critical situation that they were placed in.

I think what put me off a little was the FL's character and acting. Her acting did not really convince me as a cold hotel CEO, I just don't think her acting was convincing enough for this kind of mature, cold woman kind of role that the FL is. I think she's more suited for the fluffy cute kind of romance roles.

However surprisingly I did like her at the end when she lost her memory although that part could have been a drama in itself, that part just seems so strange it was as if I was suddenly watching a different drama ( doesn't Xia Yu Xing have a job, doesn't Han Yuan Bin have a job? How could they be in Thailand and do nothing all day for half a year?) although I get that they were trying to be consistent with the beginning.

I think the favorite part was how the antagonist manages to destroy all the good work the FL does and also how Xia Yu Xing interacts with him when he finds out about his true identity. The business part was also ok I think so if you're not here just for the romance and the chemistry I think you'll be good.

Overall I think it's an average drama for chinese dramas with a few unique points such as the fact the supernatural powers, the fact the FL can easily beat up a grown man by herself and was more independent than most Mary Sue characters but you may need to watch several episodes before you can be engaged.

For a drama about the chinese civil war, this is actually a quite interesting and a refreshing twist to the normal story line for this kind of drama. The story line is quite complex, there's a quite a bit of mystery and scandals going on throughout the drama which only we the audience and the parties involved know about until it all gets exposed in the end.
One of the two downsides to it is probably the production; the action scenes seem too well synchronised to be realistic and the props used frankly resembled something brought from a toy store. And then of course there was the female lead. Tiffany Tang is well known for taking silly Mary Sue roles and this role did not disappoint. Everyone else seems to take their role extremely seriously and was convincing enough to be special agents, only she was....let's say luck was always on her side so she didn't need to do much in order to survive and succeed. But hey, I got to like her in the end, as the drama could be quite depressing and dark sometimes and you could always guarantee she would cause some sort of trouble to lighten things up again or see her be tortured.
But overall it was an enjoyable drama and I would really recommend it.
