Sweet drama with no melodramatic scenes and in-law problem
This drama is really cheesy type. The acting and cast is superb. The music seems to be sweet (I don't really understand the OST lyrics as there are no eng subs for them). If you're searching for "no melodramatic rom-com" with "no -in laws problem" then this is indeed worth watching. Their love progress is not very slow but not too quick. It developed as they lived under the same roof (in hospital, his family house and then his house). Their chemistry is toooo sweet to handle. The amazing part is when the Jinbei chases Shiyun and how the romantic moment progress graph goes to 100 and suddenly drops to zero with a joke in the beginning episodes. Ryan perfectly carved the personality of Zhou Shiyun, a cold man with warm heart whereas Yuxi's cute act is irrestible. Whenever a drama have 24 episodes, the leads confess and start dating by 16 but in this drama they start official dating in 10 only. Their kisses are indeed extremely steamy and we can hardly distinguish which one was the best but the most emotional one is in 15, "The Mud Kiss" and there's a "coffee bean shower" instead of flower shower.Was this review helpful to you?

Breakthrough stereotypical Icey-Cold/Playboy CEO's and stupid female lead
No heavy melodrama, sweet chemistry, no cold shoulder drama between the main leads, Love at first sight, big bunch of comedy, adorable & warm ml, matured fl are the special features of this drama. Its a worth watch because the story flow is smooth and the editing is awesome. Their main plot is business but you will never feel that the story lacks chemistry or comdey.The most fantastic thing about this drama is both leads. He is the dream guy or Mr.Perfect, smart, warm and cute!!! This is Lu Yong Zhuo's (ml) 1st drama and his acting is superb! He doesn't look like a 23yr old newbie at all! The female lead is a matured woman who is confident in herself, trust the ml, smart and have her own dream.
There are three main songs (beside opening theme) and they'll hook you up with their sweetness.

Title should be 'Crush on My Ex-Wife'
It was arranged marriage but she liked him earlier. Then he kind of took her feelings and kindness for granted. He didn't hurt her but her feelings were not reciprocated until she signed divorce papers. Then he started to realize her importance in his life. Then we've his family & 3rd person melodrama.This drama haven't been subbed yet. So, I did not understand why the fuck he had to go through official divorce procedure and leave her. If I'm not wrong, his assistant said, it's to protect her but he clearly knew she's pregnant with his child and he still divorced her. Plus, her reputation was ruined by a bitch and she didn't have a job at that time.
Then he was enlightened after his mom planned his engagement and decided to put on act with FL.

Shittiest and illogical plot, turn your brain off and watch it for the main cp
I wish I could give a zero for minus rating for the story. It started as very good one but just around episode 8-9, it feels like they changed the scriptwriter midway through coz why did the ML become so stupid??? Shittiest plot development and in they end, they said 'we are a family'. Like why the whole struggle of ages if you don't intend to punish the murder?I couldn't help but point out so many flaws, especially when ML's friend used to follow villains and keep watch on them.
However, I love the 'main cp' and OST. This is the only plus point to this drama. I skipped scenes too often and just watched them. They have good chemistry but then again, the scriptwriter have to fvck up again so he added poor communication (ep 13-15 If I am not wrong and around 20th episode)

This drama have my heart!
I like Janice but I started watching this drama after watching many clips on youtube. I came for the romance of main couple and felt very satisfied.Vin Zhang and Janice Wu are both mature and sweet, both are literally glowing in this drama. They have amazing chemistry and good friends around. I liked the ost as well.

SWEET & FLUFFY
"Everyone suffers in life. They all want something sweet. That's why everyone loves sweet dramas"It's a light-hearted & non-melodramatic, fluffy story. The ost is also pleasing.
At first, the synopsis didn't satisfy me but I started watching this drama coz of Luo Zheng (ML) and ended up liking Lu Yao (2nd FL)
Personally, I really enjoyed the story and watched without skipping scenes. The plot is not draggy, main couple hv cat and dog type of chemistry in beginning which grow into fluffy overtime and they've trust in each other.

Love and Sacrifice TT
Since leads come from different race & she have terminal illness, this was bound to hv many sad scenes. The ending didn't really made me happy but it fits the plot. I cried while watching this.Main couple have sweet chemistry. I won't spoil about the sacrifice.
There are two antagonist, FL's step sister and ML's friend. However, ML's friend seem a bit too much but is quite reasonable. Her sister is annoying and turns into a paranoid at end.
The male lead Zhang Fei Fei stole my heart in a little over 100 minutes. I was invested at the moment he entered the screen. Striking appearance, beautiful smile! Must admit, he's hot and I'd like to see him in main cast of full length drama

Don't use logic, Consume like fastfood & enjoy instant karma.
In school days, I enjoyed such Wattpad material plots so I was attracted by the story.Importantly, I watched it because of it's running time. There are no (5 episode × 40 minutes) long misunderstanding. It's short, swift ride with a handsome male lead. I like how he knew she's a substitute in very beginning.
The drawback is less interactions of main couple. But the few ones are quite sweet.

Cliche melodrama, watch for ML & kid
I have read the novel and was curious about how worst the "Modified" drama story can be.It's like disappointed but not surprised.
The modification I didn't like :-
Male lead's personality at start. In novel, he's a family man with "Sweet affectionate behaviour" In drama, he is a purely business minded, analytical.
The good modification :-
Their first kiss and first night. In novel, xiao bao gave medicine/drug to yue yue and both fl and ml hv spend the night together. In the drama, they do have very close scenes but he didn't really kiss female lead until confession.
I don't knew both actors before this drama but I must admit they both are very good actors. Miles (male lead) managed to portray both analytical and sweet personality very well. I really love his facial expressions. They both have sung the ost and their voice is captivating.
However, in many scenes, the music is removed on YouTube. You can see the chinese lyrics but there's no audio. The same problem is there in extra story too.
First 17 chapters kept getting on my nerves but the only reason to watch is the Cute Kid and 2nd Female Lead. Her character and personality is perfect! The cat music for kid makes his interactions cutest.
In first 17 episodes, its just contractual relationship, too many bickerings and ofcourse the annoying fiancee & aunt. Like why the fvck his aunt have to force ml for business marriage
From 18th chapter (from her confession onwards) the story becomes a bit good/bearable because of the romantic scenes. Also the part where she broke up with him is good to watch because of the coaxing scenes.
From 20/21 episode, they try to justify the annoying ex and aunt & put all the blame on a 3rd party (which disturbed me more) I honestly thought the one behind accident is aunt.

There are no eng translations on mango tv youtube but someone hv explained what happened in comments.It's like a quick recap through main story. The recap is really good, it makes me want to rewatch some scenes in main story.
This extra story also have compilation of their kiss scenes so there's a high rewatch chances for this episode.
Now, the question is why I gave 1 ⭐ for music
During the recap, there is no audio but you can see the Chinese lyrics. I also noticed this problem in main story.

Melodramatic rom-com
It's a good rom-com but the problem is the fangirl of male lead.... She's so annoying. While she's mentally sick (suicide attempts for male lead) her sister(?) help her to force male lead into marriage. That whole shit which starts at about 22nd episode is just irritating... I skipped through a lot while watching this.The ost & chemistry of male and female lead is good. I actually liked the second couple - Yo Yang and Fang Fang coz he didn't hv fangirls around him & was kinda straightforward. He atleast didn't allow anyone to bully/belittle his girlfriend.
Gu Nan Xi (2nd male lead) is really a sweetheart. I felt heartbreak for him.

Even though its the drama follows the stereotype of CEO with OCD, the latter half of story is really good. I deduced 2 stars for story because of the controlling personality of Wei Qing (Male Lead) and stupidity as he realised his feelings in episode 27, the drama have 30 episodes only and he realized it only after cruelly turning down the confession from female lead and because complete justice was not served as male lead's uncle was bot punished for his sins. The melody of OST is really sweet.From about 14th episode, the story starts to feel real good as he changes from a control freak to kind and warm hearted man.
The personality of female lead is impressive. She's always firm on her stand and fights for herself.
The secondary actors are extremely cute and their love story have sufficient screening time. Xiao Fei is handsome and adorable cat whereas the matured version (without specs) of Meng Cheng is really handsome (maybe more handsome than male lead).

Some flaws here & there but still very good!
About like, it's definitely ACTING!!! I felt connected to Zhixiao, her family & Gu Wei. It was very natural, many times heartwarming! The leads have good chemistry, plenty of kisses & warm hugs.The starting itself got me. How the father daughter quarreled but when 3rd person involved, they immediately joined hands to argue. Also, the initial hospitals scenes are very funny.
The child Qiuqiu, such a sweet little cupid!
What I didn't like :-
Gu Wei not explaining to Gao Xi initially. He only avoided her and she kept pushing Zhixiao. While doing stitches to Zhixiao he explained her but instead, it would have been good if he clearly rejected Gao Xi beforehand.
Unnecessary drama could have been avoided.
Sansan & Gu Xiao had quite long scenes in 1st half & I skipped most of them.

awesome script with only one wrong plot, amazing casting
In whole 28 episodes I was irritated at only one particular incident, i.e. where they just brushed off ML's father, apology accepted and Su Li made an irrelevant comparison of her divorce to ML's father's death. I wish I could kill her. Rest plot is just amazing. Each episode is more intriguing with variety of cases. My favourite case is of the little kid with bottle because Dai Xu is too endearing here and other is that girlfriend case, it was hilarious. They nailed the trauma resolve of Dai Xu. I was eager from the start and the his c-section scene is wholesome but I was really heartbroken to see Bai Yang's death.I started watching because of Vin Zhang but I adored Dai Xu more throughout the length. They unique chemistry and mutual growth but I really wish there was at least one hug. Partly because there were too many moments when I wished I could give a tight hug to the character.
Moving to the conjoined twins scenes, I like how it was not one shot go, their virtual practice is very thrilling to me.

My first time seeing this genre and I was immediately captured by the script.
I started watching this drama because of Vin Zhang, his smile have my heart.The drama is slow-paced but just right to unfold the events and characters. I couldn't help but analyze the scenes and relate them to a game of chess.
The whole casting is amazing. Ma Shang and An Jing make up a very interesting pairing I have ever seen (may be because its my first time seeing this genre) They are witty partners. Ma Shang's parents did a good job as well (I am used to skipping parents scenes in dramas) There was a time when I even liked the innocent Cheng Lie and always thought that Zhou Lian is quite pretty villain. Too bad, one of my favourite man, Du Meng was sacrificed. Like WHY? WHY DID THE SCRIPTWRITER CREATED THIS PLOT? This is the reason I gave 9/10 for the story.
Background music is nice during the thrilling scenes, rest I didn't notice much about ost.
Anyways, to sum up, this is one intriguing and amazing drama. At first, I didn't expect myself to complete 40 episodes but I was hooked up from first episode and binged it in 4 days.
I hope this will have a season 2.
