As a student, Lu Jia spent most of her time in school, dreaming of the day she finally caught the attention of Xu Jia Xiu. A student in the class next door, Jia Xiu, was everything Jia dreamed a guy could be. Unfortunately, all of her dreams were based on a secret, one-sided love. Knowing that nothing would ever happen to Jia Xiu if she kept her feelings a secret, Jia decided to do what any desperate girl might do. She mustered up every ounce of her courage and wrote him a letter. Having never paid any attention to the quiet girl in the class next door, the letter from Jia comes as a bit of a surprise to Jia Xiu. With no prior feelings for Jia, Jia Xiu can’t give her any answer. But that doesn’t mean she failed to make an impression. Despite the fact that many years have passed and nothing ever came of the letter, Jia Xiu has often wondered what happened to the girl who was once brave enough to confess her feelings for him. Little does he know that, after spending years in a different city, Jia has recently returned. Now back in her hometown, fate seems determined to bring Jia and Jia Xiu together again. But this time, things are different. While Jia reminisces over the feelings she once had for Jia Xiu, he begins to realize that the impression she made all those years ago has worked an unexpected change in his heart. Finally able to acknowledge their feelings, can a long-forgotten love begin to bloom? (Source: Viki) ~~ Adapted from the novel "Shi Guang Li De Wo Men" (拾光里的我们 ) by Sui Hou Zhu (随侯珠).

Secret crush, Supportive romance, friendship, business issues

The review and sypnosis may be alittle misleading. It seems typical fluff C-romance drama BUT the plot isnt that.

1. It appears as one sided unrequited love.. but pleasantly its a secret crush too
2. Its pretty romantic FL falls for ML twice.. she just couldnt help herself :p
3. FL is pretty brave from love letters to confessing the 2nd time.
4. ML isnt cold or tsundere as you would expect. First 1/3 was his grudge. He's actually pretty accomodating and sweet.
5. The love triangle is there but does not get irritating or too long to resolve.
6. The drama highlights you are the best looking in the eye of the beholder.. for both ML and FL
7. ML and FL are a vy pleasing CP imo. Good chemistry and vy natural together. They support each other thru the company's struggles.
8. Daddi tang shows his sweeter and kind of goofy appeal. Sun Qian is pretty adorable and girl can pull off coquettish lines too.
9. Plot concentrates (especially last third of the drama) on all members of Voya company. They are both friends and comrades in a small business trying to accomplish their dreams and make it big in the app world
10. I like FL's dad and his story arc too.
11. I really like FL's outfit. Shes beautiful with good built and bodyshape too. ML's styling esp hair really suits him too.

My qualms
1. Trailer markets it as romantic fluff. So i was intially awaiting fluffy scenes.. except there werent much. Ofcourse im glad the "cringey, tripping, fall on your lips" dont exist in this drama.. BUT i felt there were a little stingy on ML-FL romantic moments. Dont expect Put your head on my shoulder type.. that spends alot of episodes purely on ML and FL interaction. Would have benefited with MORE cause Daddi Tang and Sun Qian are good actors with good rapport on screen.
2. The focus on their business struggle may not be for everyone. I respect this part of the story as well as the team spirit but again they probably could have done it better by balancing with more ML-FL solo interactions
3. The ending was good but again i was left wanting.. for a more personal scene between our main couple.

So although i really enjoyed it, i find they MISSED out on making this drama - something special, something much more memorable than what we have.

An Easy Fun Cute Watch

There’s a good balance of romance, comedy and business. This drama reminds me of My Love Enlighten Me and Mr Honesty in terms of the work place environment. The acting is rlly good, at first I was a bit put off by the leads from their previous roles, but they played off their roles in this drama rlly well! Super cute and full of fluff, and most importantly no annoying/scheming SML or SFL! And even tho they started dating early on, they never broke up once! They did have a few misunderstandings from the past that needed to be cleared up (took 1-2eps max), and even so it was only a “Cold War”. Unfortunately the ending was a bit rushed and I wished we saw more scenes of the leads, but overall I highly recommend this drama! Definitely one of those dramas where the couple works together against the obstacles rather then fighting with each other!
