While this isn't my usual genre of Chinese drama, it was undeniably captivating. I began with minimal expectations, spurred by curiosity after watching Bai Jingting's performance in another drama.

It gripped me within the first 10 to 15 minutes, a rarity in my drama-watching experience, and I ended up finishing it in less than 24 hours.

The dynamics between the leads were impeccable. The dialogue was concise, with no unnecessary or cringeworthy moments. The romantic elements were delicately balanced, with their emotions unfolding beautifully. (And I may have been overly emotional, but that scene where they shared a warm embrace by the seashore brought tears to my eyes for reasons I couldn't quite explain.)

Midway through the drama though, I was convinced that Lu Di would become their ally. I imagined the three of them forming a chaotic, yet entertaining, trio whose journey would be delightful to watch. However, I was rather sad when this did not come to pass. :[

Overall, it was an enjoyable journey! While such cooperation is rare in real life, it was heartwarming to see all the passengers work together with strangers for mutual safety. My only complaint is that I craved more—15 episodes simply weren't enough.
