Overdo (这一秒过火) is adapted from the novel written Fei Wo Si Cun. Looks like beside borrowing the male and female lead’s names, the story has been changed significantly enough that novel fans call this almost like an original script. Lol. I guess that could be a good thing since the author FWSC is called a stepmother in the novel world for a reason. It follows the ups and downs of our couple. In Shanghai, two families of warlords (Murong and Li) are at odds and they accidentally take the wrong child home. While the Li son is doted on, our male lead, the second son of the Murong family, grows up abused by the Li family. When the mistaken identity is revealed, teenage male lead tries to escape but is thrown overboard and saved by our female lead. However, that ends in her family’s demise. When the two meet again, an accident happens and our FL fakes her death under his own hands. Our male lead then sinks into despair for three years, unable to sleep or forget about her, until they meet again (!!) and she’s introduced as his brother’s future bride. Dun, Dun, Dun! Secrets of the past crawl back to haunt them with bigger enemies lining the present, what’s gonna happen to our couple?

Wang Chu Ran has the advantage of looking like a classic beauty with a gentle coldness simmering underneath so I’m excited to see how she brings forth the fire of her intelligent and cunning character. As for Zhang Ling He, what is new. He’s been a gorgeous specimen since the beginning and now ya’ll gonna make him wear a uniform in a republican drama? My, my, my! 😍😍😍
