To me this movie is not just a comedy, it's a fairy tale of love stories. Especially when ZiXia yelled " everything on this mountain belongs to me!including you." when she first appeared, it just somehow shocked me.

One day he will be riding a colorful clouds to marry me. I was right for the first part,but not the ending..."
