For a modern drama being held out for years and postponed the release time more than once, I think this drama is overrated by the production side in the name of rising anticipation. The story has a lot of potential supported by many skilled casts. Sadly they choose to throw all of it under the bus for whatever the reason is.
Story
The story starts mediacore as the main leads get into a fake marriage. It's getting interesting as there are more interactions leading to love sparks between them. Successful hardworking female leads are common in Chinese drama but it was the first time I watched a jobless and got nothing but intelligent-minded male lead. Until the late 20s episode, I was still optimistic about the story. Going to 30s eps, it starts getting messed up. I don't see the need to bring up Yao Yao and Wang Jiesen. It gets worse when many characters act out of their usual character resulting in 36-40 'accident'.
Acting/Casts
1. Yang Mi and Xu Kai act perfectly. Yang Mi's body language portrayed a strong female lawyer perfectly. Xu Kai's eyes and facial expression conveyed Yang Hua's dejected feelings very well. When both of them are together, their chemistry is the best it can be.
2. Li Ze Feng also acted his character nicely. His tone isn't monotone like many supporting casts I used to watch. When he's talking to Wu Fei, Qin Shi, and when he works are all slightly different.
3. Wang Zi Xuang's act made me speechless. Though the story makes her character like that, is there really no better way to portray it? I lose hope when she keeps screaming and unnaturally doing excessive breathing whenever she's angry. No need to say when I see no tears while she acts sadly sobbing in front of Tang Jun Hui.
Music
Mao Buyi's songs are never disappointing. His unique voice makes the scenes touch my heart much more.
Mao Buyi - Don't Worry (Ending Theme Song) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYXHsYWq2kE
Yisa Yu's lyric phrase "Go away with me tonight" keeps lingering on top of my head.
Yisa Yu - Law of Love https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i00jDKx1chg
Definitely will add both songs to my Spotify playlist.
Zhang Bichen's song is a bit surprising, in addition, it's a jazzy song. I didn't notice it was her when I first heard it until I saw it on the OST list.

Liu Meilin - Little Sweet Drama (Opening Theme Song)
Liu Xi Jun - Excuse
Overall She and Her Perfect Husband is a good drama, just might be not our 'perfect' drama. I might rewatch it sometimes but for sure I will skip 30s eps straight to the last scenes of the final episode.
