This is a very good friends-to-lovers drama. The actors did a great job bringing their characters to life and the leading couple has very good chemistry. Having said that, the drama could’ve spent some more time into the leading couple’s falling in love interactions than into how they developed professionally. Their emotional journey is really nice to watch. It is great to see that Xu Fang’s unconditional love and support for Lin Xi Chi is equally reciprocated even though she has been hurt by her family’s situation. Even though the drama has its share of cuteness, it is also an emotionally charged story that deals with the painful effects of parental abandonment and how it can bring feelings of unworthiness on a child all the way to adulthood. The drama works well in presenting the character’s understanding and love for one another, the aspect of forgiveness to become stronger and, at the most, understanding that “I will only deserve the best of you when I become the best of myself”. Even though the drama is not perfect, it is beautiful and entertaining.
