My god!!! I watched this back when I was still on that Zhang Ruo Nan hype because I just discovered her on 'Cry Me a Sad River', but man... not even my hype could push me through finishing or even enjoying this drama, cuz it's just bad, like REALLY REALLY BAD... and it even took me a year and a half to realized like "You know what? Let's not even bother finishing it. I might have at least 10 episodes left, but I really just can't."

Ok so, I started watching this when I was also just getting into cdramas and I didn't know that cdramas have anime-like openings. So I got hit with a lot of spoilers in the first episode because of the opening like wtf... at least in anime, they'll try to make it look like a puzzle that you have to piece together. So already starting off really bad, and I can't really remember much in the beginning, all i know is i think it's decent, but I still watched it at 1.5speed. I think it was okay in the beginning because we're just focusing on the dynamic of the FL and 2 MLs, but the moment they've returned to their homeland and started introducing this family drama and business politics and stuff to the story, that's where it started going down to shit.

Now the family drama, it was either shit or just plain boring. I think it was kinda interesting with the lost son mystery and shit, but i think they've revealed it too early, and it's kinda predictable as well, as to who the lost son is. So maybe it's probably both shit and boring. Zhang Min's dad, my god... props to the writer for writing him as the most annoying dad, but my god! The actor is soo bad; the one scene that got me laughing so hard for how bad his acting was, is when he was choking her mistress, like.... that scene was soo bad HAHAHAHAH If you look at how he's choking this actress like, i don't how to describe it, but it was bad. I don't even think i have anything to say about his character, nor his acting, other than he's BAD. Both as the character and actor.

Zhang Min's mother, i mean... she's just there.. great. Most of the time, she's just passive, though she doesn't have that much screen time. It's understandable.

Zhang Min, my god, can you get even more annoying?? like he's really obsessing over the FL, pushing himself to be the FL's boyfriend, when the FL doesn't even wanna associate herself with him, and i feel for wenna, like why even bother considering marrying her? When it's very obvious that the girl that you really like is Luo Xi?

Luo Xi on the other hand is also annoying and is such a pushover, like just make up your mind for god's sake. I feel really bad for the 2nd ML for getting up his hopes because she's such a pushover, that's why ML keeps coming back and trying to convince her to be his boyfriend.

Tao Lun... ugh!! I'm getting 2nd Lead Syndrome. At first, I felt really bad for him, and i really really like his character, clearly written to be a good likable boy, and I've been rooting for him, but the more you watch, the more you get annoyed, like come on just stop, the girl clearly doesn't wanna be with you and only see you as a childhood friend. I skimmed through the remaining episodes that i have, and from what i saw, he ended up with wenna, and it was kinda cute. You can already tell since they've been building up to it. Of course, the revelation that he was the real son, is really meh, like okay... what else??

Wenna, when she got introduced, it was okay, but she started getting on my nerves. She got progressively annoying as you watch, but I'm glad she got that character development. Then she realized that ML doesn't love her, so that's when i started giving a shit about her character and her dynamic with the 2nd ML.

Now, I'm just gonna sum up the rest of the side characters, like you could've actually cut down most of them and given the screen time to Yang Lin and Secretary Zheng like you didn't even have to bother creating this many side characters. They're just distractions or fillers to stretch out the runtime of this drama because most of the time when it's just these side characters on screen, it's just a snooze fest for me. Like can we just get on the main topic, please?

Couldn't really care much about the business side plot. You could've just kept this on the sidelines and toned it down because of the Family and Business side plot that this became like a shit Teledrama instead of a romance-drama. At least, I'm done. I'm finally free from the shackles of wanting to finish this show, like I'M OUT! It's so garbage. This is the 2nd Drama that I've watched where Riley Wang is in it, and i feel really concerned about his Portfolio because the other one that I'm also currently watching right now is also shit, but I hope he gets a well written drama in the future because i think he's a great actor and he's cute with cute dimples.

Overall, again shit garbage drama. Don't even bother watching it if you're looking for a good story and acting, but if you're a fan of any of the actors/actresses, then go ahead if it can help you go through the atrocity that this drama is, i really wanna rate it 0.5 or even 0, but the website doesn't allow it xD. This is something that my mother or grandmother would watch, i think this is aimed for that demographic and not for my age.
