i had high expectations for it because of the trailers and the first couple of episodes, but as the episodes carried on the story became more and more basic. however, it was still fun to watch and gives you shy smiles here and there.

compared to the other male lead lusi has worked with, i feel liu te (ling yue) and her have no chemistry. almost as if ling yue only seems to love or care about her when she’s not in his reach anymore.

one thing that bothered me just a tiny bit but i scolded myself for is the baby face ling yue has. even though it does go against the masculine domineering CEO just a bit, that’s something out of his reach and i don’t believe we should use it against him or the drama. he did a great job with what he had to work with and i think he should be proud of himself.

another thing was how basic and boring the story line was: male and female antagonist, reoccurring company problems, neutral struggles the couple face in their personal lives, ect.

not to mention how basic the female lead character was, basically just a y/n. she had the personality of a carrot: no parents, independent, nice, doesn’t stand up for herself, mega patience, and a sad mystery filled backstory. and even though this character was the basic of the basic, zhao lusi did such a good job.

overall, if you read all this, i’d advise to watch it while you’re watching another drama or two. it’s easy to forget but worthwhile when you watch it. momentary happiness you know? yeah :)
