Yu Qing Luo is a skilled "ghost" doctor, who uses poisons to heal.  She is also an amnesiac single mother, who wants to find her missing memories and a father for her precocious 7 year old son Nan Nan, who decidedly does not want any father but his real one.       

On her journey, Qing Luo meets Prince Ye Xiu Du, and sparks fly (not all the right kinds). She mistakes him for a notorious Casanova, while he is both annoyed and intrigued by the feisty doctor who may be able to cure his brother. Nan Nan, takes a liking to Ye Xiu Du though, and takes him on as a 'disciple' in exchange for endless supplies of fried chicken.

Trailer: 

First thoughts:

🐼: An interesting set up, with a single mother as heroine.  The trailer looks fluffy and choc full of romcom tropes, and from the first few episodes, it is clear that Qing Luo won't be taking itself too seriously. That kiddo Nan Nan is also super cute!
