I dropped this drama twice, both could not pass the first episode finding many cliches being introduced quite early in this modern Cinderella story: meeting thru an accident, arrogant ML Yun Jie, rude FL Yong Yong, orphan childhood, poor FL rich ML, step family, family jealousy. The third time picking up the drama I decided to continue to episode 2, it becomes more interesting with the introduction of Xun Jie's son and his previous marriage. We then find out another side of Yun Jie besides his arrogant perfectionist CEO role: a soft and caring side longing for his son Xiao Nan. Meanwhile the boy also longs for his supposedly dead father (as told my his mom). And the drama threw Yong Yong between the father-son custody thru fake marriage in order to save her orphanage.
The second couple's story is as equal as engaging. Yun Jie's brother Yun Chao tries hard to prove himself worthy in family business with any means, including dating the rich business partner Xin Jie leading to half-hearted engagement since he does not love her. Yun Chao character is ambiguous, we don't know he is an enemy or an ally, he shows kindness during the orphanage deal but also ruthless in other business deals including with Xin Jie, and Yun Hao also can sabotage Yun Jie-Yong Yong relationship.
This drama is amazingly calm and controlled with every scene flows smoothly, without exploding plots to draw angst, without fillers as the focuses mainly on Yun Jie-Yong Yong relationship development. Even as later there is some interesting development of Yun Hao's feeling for Yong-Yong, we never see the love triangle confrontation when FL connects with a male lead while the other shows jealousy. Yong Yong's feeling never confuses her feelings, and Bean Sprout and Fei Lei secret is never revealed until the last episode.

ActressJanine Chang amazingly brought up the genuinely caring character of Yong Yong who is ready to help everyone to the point of self-sacrificing. Her facial expressions strongly support her character development. Actor Mike He successfully brought up an emotional character of Yun Jie the father of a long lost son who does anything to regain the time loss with Xiao Nan. Together Janine and Mike creates a solid chemistry thru various relationship types: from with social class enemies, marriage business alliances, marriage acting partners, true friends, parents to Xiao Nan, to real lovers. Lastly, actor Li Yi Feng as brother Yun Hao managed to deliver a reserved and cynical yet charming character to intrigue us until the end

Music is nicely done, but not outstanding. Noted OSTs are "That Song" and "Must Forget" sung by Li Yi Feng himself who played as Yun HaoYun

I think his drama has a high re-watch value due to its sweetness of relationships almost between everyone involved. No overemphasized plot with ridiculous character developments, everyone seems mature enough. This light hearted romantic comedy gives a deep value on family relationship in a caring loving way.
