May be low budget but it's a good watch!
Granted, it has all the tropes of a BL. The dubbing was a little off and yes you can hear sounds of the wind and rain a little stronger at times. The fact that this came from China was a total shocker! I realize Hong Kong is separate from mainland China in terms of politics so we were lucky to get this little gem of a series. If nothing else, we should at least give them ratings based on the share fact that this was able to come to fruition and we should support them regardless.
As for the content, I think it was good enough to send me through all the typical emotions...happy, funny, mad, heartbroken and satisfied. There were a bunch of little cute moments that were funny and had me giggling. If you really look at Junjie's facial expressions, they weren't really that stoic. A good actor is capable of making you feel what's going on in their head just by their eyes. He had glints of devilishness at some points and then endearing stares at other times. Jiaming is a softer and less aggressive version of Gu Hai but is a good actor in his own right. He owned his lines and facial expressions. As for the bedroom scene, I don't think it was the fault of the actors but of the film editors. They replayed a few parts over and over so, when Junjie is looking to the side, I think a director or something else was causing him to look to the side since there were no speaking parts ATM and the editor forgot to cut that part out. I might be wrong, but that's the impression I got.
Overall, I liked it. It's a little over an hour long if you FF thru the intros and credits/next episode previews so it's a good little story to satisfy the watcher and not much time lost if you don't enjoy it. I probably wouldn't watch it again just because it's short enough to remember all the details but that shouldn't stop anyone else from giving it a chance!
