Ji Feng is leaving her car, heading back to the police station after they grab dinner, and tells her:

"You have a sense of justice and you're capable. More importantly, you don't dislike solving cases, " the young, handsome officer stood in the night breeze. Leisurely, he said, "Once at the hospital, once at school, once at the bookstore. In the future, you'll have a next time and a time after that."

"We're the same kind of person. You're already enjoying the process."

Jian Jing x Ji Feng

I LOVE these two. They are like two sides of the same coin. They banter a lot, but understand each other's drives and motivations the best. Jian Jing frequently bullies the police officer, but he often deserves it, and I feel like she's the most childish around him. He's a genius police officer that works 370/365 days a year. His dad was a police officer and his mother remarried and died from cancer. He basically raised his younger sister, and honestly main goal of living is to find his dad's murderer and to ensure his sister's wellbeing. He works so much so that in case he dies from a case, he can have a house and savings for his sister to inherit. I love love love this man. He definitely likes the MC but he will never ever admit it

. He says in the story that he doesn't intend on marrying because the nature of his work means he can die at any time. He alludes to the fact that since MC is a super rich super famous author, there's plenty of people that would line up to chase her when people joke with him about them getting together. I think he feels that there's better options for her out there. Options that won't potentially die at anytime, can give her happiness, money, and more. Thus, why try? TBH super pragmatic, but sad. My OTP of the year but the author will never fulfill thissss

Jian Jing x Jiang BaiYan

Jiang BaiYan is our MC's number one book reader fan, and acts as the Lead Male Actor in multiple of her works made into movies. The original (pre-transmigration) Jian Jing saved his life when he was little, so she has a special place in his heart. The actual MC is good friends with him, and he definitely would take their relationship to the next step is she let him, but he would never make her feel uncomfortable. He has a darker/manipulative side that's hard for people to perceive. I noticed in other comments that people interpreted his actions in the arc where she confronts her kidnapper/parent's murderer as he betrayed Jian Jing. However, I disagree. I think he did that in order to help her fulfill her goals. I honestly really like this character since he's nuanced and well done. I personally don't think MC can see him as anything but a cute younger brother figure.

Jian Jing x Kang MuCheng

Tyrant Boss x Spoiled Princess LOL. Kang MuCheng is Jian Jing's benefactor and boss. He recognized her potential as a writer and propelled her to success. He's attentive to all her needs and puts her as a priority. If he didn't ask her later in the story to call him by his name and not just "Kang Zhong" (or Boss/CEO Kang), I would say that romance between them is impossible! I think him and Jian Jing will be each other's most special person forever but not necessarily as romantic partners. He basically was a parental/guardian figure after MC's parents were murdered. I am more worried that Kang MuCheng's care for Jian Jing won't cause his future wife to hate her and resort to murder/felonies considering the crime rate of this world.

Jian Jing x Zhong Ye

This guy is like a potential wild, sexy fling. He's some government spy/agent. Very dashing figure but doesn't have much screen time. Him and Jian Jing work well together, but ultimately he's always going to be a sporadic existence.

Jian Jing x Xie Wei

Xie Wei is the only guy that Jian Jing kisses in the story! He has a tragic career, but a presence that draws attention. The author is honestly great at making characters feel charismatic. I don't think he was present enough for me to care that much for him though. He's not as interesting as the other 4.

About Jiang Baiyan, from the review here, I will say that from the MTL, the female lead asked him to betray her to gain trust. That’s why they are still friends. He never betrayed her, not yet.

I have always had reservations about him, but I think at this point in time, he is still good. I’m not sure about the future. At this point in the story, we gave already dealt with the serial killer after our female lead after all, I am not sure who will replace him as the main villain. I have guesses, and it might be XiaoBai. I still have hope though. I hope he wins against whatever darkness in his heart is. Because I really like him as a character.

I also adore Ji Feng and Kang Munchan. They are charismatic and I find myself unable to determine which one would be her main love interest.

I love the way the author writes stuff. I don’t want to be shown everything too clearly. My language is also very close to Chinese, so maybe that’s why it is easy for me to read and understand it even in MTL. We have similar proverbs and everything.

Like how she came to a parallel world of hers, living her other self who lives with different choice from her. Until now, I don't even know the reason why the criminal rate there was ridiculously high, well, yet. It's an interesting topic to explore tho.

For example, our MC, Jian Jing is an aloof person, who dislike getting involved in other people business but she can be enthusiastic if cases mostly murders happen. It looks solid right? But no, it's blurry.

I read up until she solved her creepy stalker, and yet I still found her aloof even when solving cases even tho it was described she actively trying to solve it. Why I said that? She treat everyone equally, which I mean friends and enemies both.

She is a bystander in that strange yet similar to her own world, since using detached a bit too much. Her editor or her boss, Kang Mu Cheng is much older than her, since I say it's blurry, I mean he looks like a love interest when he's actually not! I just recently found he was a father like figure to her, even tho I don't ship them but it's still dumbfounding. There was Jiang Bai Yan too, he looks like a love interest too. Well, my hunch says he's not, but it's not yet clear in the story. And that only leaves us with Ji Feng, IF ONLY Jian Jing treat him more than others! Ugh, so frustrating! Not that I ship them too, I tell you, I ship no one! There's no damning chemistry when its tag say it's a damn romance!

Let's talk about the dead actor who somehow became the prototype of character 'the killer' in her book, I forgot which one maybe rose gold? why I found him lingering in her mind like some f*cking first love? We know it's not, just impressive acting that touch her.

And Jiang BaiYan, I don't get a slight idea why Jiang Jing just let that man be after betraying her, I know maybe he was hypnotized but still... I lose my will to read due to it.
