The summary below is taken from the novel, not the drama. The ancient gods have died, and there is only the last god in the world - Hang Zhi. Rumor has it that this dynamic God has lived alone in the heavens for tens of thousands of years, with no feelings and no desires, indifferent to the world. In the battle of the immortals and demons, he turned the tide by himself, and since then, has chosen to distance himself from the world. Hundreds of years go by in the blink of an eye. On the occasion of her thousand-year-old birthday, Shen Li, an accomplished and powerful general in the Demon Realm, who holds the honorary title Prince Bi Cang, is forced into a political marriage to the thirty-third grandson of the Celestial Emperor, Fu Rong (a notorious casanova). While escaping from her marriage, she is injured and transforms into her original form - a phoenix. She then falls into the human world. Seriously injured and comatose, a human hunter picks her up, plucks all the golden feathers from her body, and sells her to a chicken seller who locks her in a cage for sale. When Shen Li wakes up, she is furious at the situation, but there is nothing she can do. Just as she falls into total despair, a handsome man (Hang Zhi) dressed in blue and white passes by. After staring at her for a long time thoughtfully, he smiles: "I want this one." And just like that, a seemingly casual transaction seals their fate. credit: MDL, Dramawiki, Baidu Trailer: RULES of SOOMPI Don't post any requests for subs!

SC2019 Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 We are in a phase where producers are not shying away from strong female leads. After The Legend of Shen Li, here's another one, Hua Zhi. And though she can't wield a sword or fly to the heavens, her brains, courage and resilience, indeed put her on an equal footing with Shen Li. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocher22 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 What I like the most is that the main couple resolves all misunderstandings quickly. When Yanxi told Zhi his true identity she didnt push him away. That was mature. The sibling's scenes are one of my favorites... The first encounter between ShenHuan and Shayao was so hilarious... Their chess scenes were so lovely.... The actor (Shenhuan) is pretty good looking. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is no thread for them here. For "Blossoms In Adversity", the F and ML are only average in their performance. But this is a light story. Easy to enjoy. Because there is nothing too heavy. In short - "entertaining". There is another Great C-Drama called : Spoiler "Shooting Stars". Are you watching it? If not then I would recommend it. Every ep is so interesting. And the Child Actress is so Lovely ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocher22 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 ep 33 The King is so cunning...now he accused the Shen family...I wonder how long Yanxi will be loyal to the King. Im glad the Shen brothers were released...and Shenhuan and Shaoyao can be together again. 4 hours ago, hush puppy said: There is another Great C-Drama called : Reveal hidden contents "Shooting Stars".

Spoiler I watched the first two episodes and it is a very good drama, different from the other Republican dramas. The plot is unpredictable and interesting. I saw the ML for the first time and I like him. And yes, the little girl is so adorable and smart. Their scenes are so fresh and something new in Cdrama.
