I am joking (but not really). I have never understood the hype over him before this drama and now … let‘s say I have found a new love.
Initially I refused to watch this drama because of the controversies surrounding it. But 3 days ago I found myself bored in need of a rom-com and this has good reviews/rating so I picked it up with 0 expectations and I was not disappointed.
The plot is not much but it kept me engaged enough even though I am not really into e-sports. It was the characters and (OMG xu kai) that made me love this as much as I did. There were some eye-rolling moments and lines that made me sigh. I have made peace with the fact that they’re going to be cringy moments in every Chinese drama I am going to watch and I am fine with that.
The chemistry between the ML and the FL was off the charts and I liked their bickering. I only have one complain. I would have given this drama a higher rating if it were not for cheng xiao‘s acting. It was fine for the most part but at times, I felt like she did not show any emotions and here reactions were underwhelming. I am not hating on her I do like her as an idol but I think that she need more training before taking a lead role in a drama again.
Another highlights for me were the cats. The cute little one that they got later on I am in love.
Overall, it was a good drama. If you want something lighthearted with good characters, watch it.

A little Treasure
Anyone who sees the 10 stars I gave might think that I am biased or that I may be a fan of one of the actors (which I am now after watching this). and maybe I am high on my emotions after just finishing this drama. Who knows.
I knew this drama was going to be special from the first couple of minutes of the first episode. I can't even make a proper review due to how much this drama means to me.
Some things come to you at the right time and heal your soul. It's so beautiful and full of hope and love. It made me reflect on my own life.
From the casting to the story and the music, everything was done with so much care. You can tell everyone involved in the production did their best to make this special.
I like many genres but somehow my favorite dramas always end up being stories about families, friendships, and people trying and chasing their dreams. And this one had all the above along with romance but romance wasn't the main point of the show. I think what this comes down to is a story about a father and a son. And it was so lovely to watch.
I cried and laughed a lot while watching it . I loved every moment. This drama is my little treasure that I found this year and I love it dearly.

This is my first time writing a review on a drama so if this is all over the place that is probably why.Let me get this straight. All the reviews that says that this is trash are right. You do not watch this to have a good time.
I am here to warn you .It has all the annoying tropes:
1/ the jerk, petty, childish ML with no redeeming qualities (I wonder if they actually tried to make him a tsundere but forgot to give him a soft side),
2/ the doormat FL that likes the ML from the beginning for no freaking reason
All my teenage years I spent reading shoujo manga with doormat FL and cold ML that doesn’t gives a shit about them and treat them badly but they still like him anyway didn’t prepare me for this nonsense.
3/ There is a lot of misunderstanding throughout the drama and No communication skills whatsoever between them.
4/ The psycho ex GF that still likes the ML. pretends to be nice in front of him and he doesn’t realize that she is a snake until the end that makes u want to strangle her.
Oh also do not expect the FL to be smart and confident and to have logic just because she has good grades and is a talented programmer .of course not this is a Chinese drama she has to be dumb to fall in love with the ML.
It has two of my favorites tropes: cross dressing and fake marriage but it was executed horribly. The plot dragged a lot.
Why did I watch this? You may ask .well, when this was announced, I had high hopes. I like both the leads and the story sounded interesting enough. I wanted to like this. I will never get excited for a Chinese drama again. I got my lesson.
If for some reason after reading this, you still want to watch it; my advice for you is to go with zero expectations .no except the worst.
Skip the scenes that u don’t like. Especially, when his ex-GF appears .trust me you will not miss much of the plot and maybe you will be somewhat entertained by this.
The only good thing about this drama is his sister and the cat momo .
