This is worth a watch!

I am being a bit generous with my rating here. I originally thought to rank it a 7, but I bumped it up due to its positive message.

The Story Nothing new or special, here. But the arc of the story is a very positive message of growth as a person and supporting your partner. Kudos to the writers and directors.

One negative, that is probably writing/directing rather than acting. There were quite a few instances, early on in the series before the leads were a real couple, where the Male Lead grabbed the female lead by the arm/wrist, and there were a few times he bent her over and hovered over her. This is NOT OK and it creeped me out. The lead's behaviors in the later half of the series is a complete 180 from this behavior.

Another negative: The Love Triangle. Well, there was never much doubt about which leads would end up together, but the second lead (the guy who know our female lead from childhood) was a selfish jerk for not just letting go. Yeah, he helped the female lead a lot when she needed it, but he pushed ahead as a romantic rival way too long. I *hate* love triangles, and I think it is a super lazy plot device to generate tension.

Acting It was good, but not great. I think the male lead was best. His transition from really annoying jerk to caring partner was more natural than most such transitions. He was very good in his caring persona and it felt very genuine.

People have noted that the leads' kisses were less than invested and I really did notice that. I am not used to seeing that, but I would not criticize the actors or producers (or censors) for such a choice, as kissing is a very personal and potentially awkward act. They certainly got the point across anyway!

Cast A very beautiful cast all around. As in a number of other CDramas I've seen, I found the 2nd female lead (FL's friend, Chen Yi-Xin IRL???) particularly captivating. Of course the female lead (Wang You-Wen IRL) was beautiful as well!

Overall This series was not as polished as say, "You Are My Glory." There was a few instances of less than stellar acting. But the series was very cute and positive overall. So a generous 8.

All in all, pretty good for a C-Drama. It is the typical script of the contract marriage, so no surprises there, but I enjoyed it alot more than others that I have seen since I didn't see any outright cruelty like I have in the past. There was romance between the two - a definite connection however it seemed to take forever for them to show it to each other. The side couple Male actor was cute and I could see him in a lead role in the future - maybe in a comedy. Don't laugh - my Golden Retriever loved to watch this show with me - he sat in front of the TV intently watching it. Don't know what that says about it but he has never done that before. It was so cute had to take a photo of him from behind.

Surprisingly good!

It's an ordinary romantic drama with a third party unrequited love. The usual trope. The main casts have a wonderful chemistry together! Their interaction is fantastic, no fake kisses, no open eyes peck on the lips, just real sweet romance. Though the relationship starts contracted & rocky but they develop feelings for each other later on. The support & love from everybody is wonderful!

The supporting male cast/mo zixin keeps trying to win the female lead heart as they were childhood sweetheart.

The supporting female cast/xiwei keeps trying to poison the main couple/cast relationship.

Through all the odds & misunderstandings, they fell in love & face problems together!

What a twist! Love it! Happy ending! No rush!

I rate 10/10 because this c-drama surprised me. This romance storyline is an example of how a writer can transform a worn repetitive theme into a delightful plot which is highly entertaining, creative and refreshing. The writer clearly has exceptional skills, because she creates drama without using lack of dialogue, unreasonable misunderstandings and others tiresome cheesy drama content. It is not over dramatized with too much unnecessary and irritating drama caused by the main female character's infantile and unreasonable decisions. It is the opposite: the main female actress Wang Yu Wen not make irritating faces and pouts and the character she conveys is clever, feisty and no-nonsense. The main male actor Wang Zi Qi is very comfortable in playing his role, which had a bit more development than usual. The secondary actors are also very good and portray very well their characters. The female voices tone and timbre are more pleasant to listen to, not so high-pitched, nagging and childish. All of the above make me try watching more Chinese series. I am very tired of watching cheesy irritating drama created with the concept that we viewers are dimwit. Thank you, screenwriters Shang Meng Lu and Zhang Xiao. The directors Li Yao Bo and Chu De Jian also deserve my thanks.

I just made to watch this as of june 18 2022 . I watched some of its episodes on TikTok then I continued watching episodes 21 UpTo 24 on YouTube. This deserves more views actually. There are much Kilig moments or ROMANTIC moments of them. Btw, im from the Philippines.
