With the flop that was Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Red Moon Pact, I’m not sure if I’ll see Liu Shi Shi back on the small screen first with her earlier filmed Fox Spirit second chapter Love in Pavilion or this just wrapped filming Kill My Sins.

OMG this is like a bad joke taken too long. Liu Shi Shi got a big career reassurance thanks to her last drama A Journey to Love being a hit and her performance also getting praise.
