I was looking forward to another historical drama with Luo Yun Xi and Follow Your Heart (颜心记) seemed like a good one to binge on. It has a great start but the exhilaration tapers off after a while. Nevertheless, I completed it within a week although I do think 40 episodes is a tad too long for this story.
