This is a great story of female friendship with an inauspicious beginning - between Lin Shuang our female lead and Jiang Xi. Two women from very different backgrounds find common ground and nurture a restorative and empowering relationship that carries the whole drama. The story could have had better flow and dramatic tension if it were shorter; honestly, half the number of episodes probably would have still worked. We know pretty soon on what a deadbeat jerk Wei Ming is, so dragging his dark deeds out was a bit tiresome to me. Acting overall was great. and the workplace scenarios were more realistic - still probably not completely realistic in areas - than many a workplace Chinese drama I have seen in recent years.
If you like modern workplace dramas with strong female characters, this is worth checking out.
