In an attempt to seal her fate and test her loyalties before her ascending the title of High Goddess, she is sent to the moral; world where she meets Ye Hua and falls in love. To prevent the previous fate of such lovers, Ye hua fakes his own death to protect his lover from the Nine Heavens. A series of misunderstanding ensue and Bai Qian jumps off a high terrace thinking Ye Hua betrayed her. This brings her back to Nine Heavens and to her former goddess form. She then asks for her memory of the mortal world be erased and is granted her wish.<\/p>\n<p>As fate would have it, they meet again in the High Heavens, this time 300 years later. Bai Qian owing to her erased memory doesn\u2019t recognize Ye Hua who remembers his former lover and sets out to woo her again. Eventually love prevails, they reunite, despite the worlds and time that they\u2019ve transcended.<\/p>\n<p>I see why this story is such a hook, it sounds pretty convincing for an eternal tv and romance drama junkie.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #e33737;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #e33737;\"><strong>8- Ode to Joy: \u6b22\u4e50\u9882<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photo_Internet-5\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.hiredchina.com\/FhXeyZemDx_a8V9uBsztVcCGwkxF?imageView2\/0\/format\/webp\/q\/75\" alt=\"20.jpg\" width=\"580\" height=\"391\" title=\"\">Photo: Internet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<hr \/>\n<p>The first season of this modern drama aired in 2016 and 2017 saw its second season conclude a couple of months ago.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.hiredchina.com\/FuLGGuvaNmHdqWmAFpCoxLtjRuz8?imageView2\/0\/format\/webp\/q\/75\" alt=\"2017-2-20-11.png\" width=\"200\" height=\"30\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #044df6;\"><strong>Plot: <\/strong><\/span>China\u2019s answer to Sex and the City, this show revolves around the lives of 5 single women flatmates living in their 22nd storey apartment called called \u2018Ode to Joy\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Together they try to find their own individuality, balancing their love lives and careers while each in the pursuit of their happiness.
