Such a cute and beautiful drama
One of my favorite romance drama. I love both couple so much and they had cute, healthy and mature relationships. The main couple was so cute, I love their height difference and they were sweet. They were understanding and helping each other too. From childhood crush to lovers.The story of the second couple was really good too, like an ennemies to lovers and they were perfect for each other. I loved watching their story.
I love that in this drama there was no love triangle (there was second leads, but it was one sided love, they weren’t annoying and trying to get the leads. They backed up fast and did not force anything), also no break up and a beautiful happy ending for everyone.
I also loved that their families (all 4 main leads) were kind, loving, friendly and accepted the relationships. They loved their in laws ahah and no annoying parents against the relationship. They were happy for them and even encouraged them.
The ending was perfect too.

Breeze Of Fresh Air
This drama was such a breeze of fresh air. Everything felt so real. The doctors seemed like real people, real doctors. Wen Shao Qing was such a gentleman. Not the regular cliché male lead that manipulates female lead into marrying or dating or the possessive type to hold on to the famale lead not giving her the needed personal space. I liked the fact that they showed an actual doctor goes through daily life. They do have tough times standing and operating while standing for 20+ hours. How tiring it is that they have to get up move anytime there's an emergency.The fact that Cong Rong was not a damsel in distress. She being a lawyer had a sense of responsibilty for justice. Shao Qing did help her a few times but she too gave him support when he needed her. There was mutual care between them. Which was heartwarming to watch. There were no cliché heartbreaks or the male lead getting overly jealous. They were just two people maintaining their personal and professional life responsibly.
I liked the hospital scene where they showed in parallel their present selves and their children selves
The second leads were just too cute together. They should get their own spin-off. Although I cried a few everytime he rejected her and she was heartbroken. Her misery broke my heart and I cried along with her on my bed at 2am in the night. But her character developed after several times being rejected. She became mature.
I liked that there were no rich-@$$ people in this drama who just threw money at whatever they wanted. They were just real people with real emotions.
This is the first time I m giving a drama 10 stars bcoz this never disappointed me. Cong Rong felt like a real lawyer with the knowledge of the law. While Shao Qing also seemed a real doctor at how he surgically sued the grapes..haha.
Great experience watching My Little Happiness. Highly recommended if you r looking for a wholesome Chinese drama.

Feel good, lighthearted story.
Good drama. Has your standard childhood friend meets as adults trope, but they do it well. It is just the premise for the start of the show and is the basis for their love for each other. This is a lighthearted drama with little melodrama and just a feel good watch. I was not interested in the side leads story so i skimmed through that, even though their relationship was just as lovely and pure.The FL kind of annoyed me because she lead on her boss by not telling him she had a BF. Although, she was not trying to hide it, she was not explicit enough in turning him down which kind of annoyed me. At first, this matched her character because she was oblivious, but her friend explained it to her and she still did not tell the boss. On the contrary, the girl that was interested in the ML immediately encouraged his relationship with the FL when she heard because the ML was very clear about his feelings for her. That being said the FL never had any feelings for her boss and only loved the ML and she puts him above everything and vice versa.
I really have come to enjoy Chinese dramas because of the way they show love, family, and friendship. The ML and his family are such nice people. The ending was so beautiful and it was nice seeing both leads families swooning over their respective son/daughter-in-law

Best Realistic Story In A Long Time
The best drama I have seen in a long time. The story was pure and realistic. The characters dealt with problems like a real person would deal with it. No obsess person no push and pull game between the couples. The family was not perfect but were understanding. The actors performance was great and they had such great chemistry. The relationship between the couples were realist behavior. What a great story with funny, and dramatic scenes from the very beginning. The situation the couple had to deal with at the work place seem true to what would happen in an everyday life. Loved the scrip. Just the best. It was a joy to watch this drama even when I had to wait every week for new episodes.Was this review helpful to you?
Your dream, my dream, our dream.
The most amazing part of this series was how the main characters completely devoted themselves to supporting each others dreams. While they both were faced with decisions that sometimes left them with less time to spend together, they still were steady in their love and proud of each others success.While they strove to be the best they could be in their professions, they still put the same amount of effort in maintaining their love for each other. This was done a lot through small actions like making breakfast for each other or staying awake to care for their partner while they are sick.
I really recommend this to anyone who is wanting sweet and devoted love, with not a lot of drama in their love but instead more focused drama in their work.

I’m so in love with this drama!
OMG I LOVED IT! First of all I’m head over heels for the OST. Been wanting to say that for 26 episodes now but was determined to watch all 28 before posting anything. This show was so addictive. I love the chemistry of the main couple and really enjoyed the story of the 2nd couple too. I love how steamy the main couple was, not all prude like usual Asian dramas (especially Chinese). I laughed so much throughout the series, not just in the first few episodes.I will absolutely be rewatching numerous times. In fact, I’m posting this as I’m about to rewatch it for the first time since I watched it several months ago. Can’t believe how excited I am to see this cast and these characters again and I don’t even remember any details right now. LOL!

A cute love story with no angst and full of cuteness
If you are looking for a drama with romance, some comedy, nice characters, no stupid misunderstandings, and nice love rivals... This is the one!Story
Wen Shiaoqing and Cong Rong met when they were kids. He was obese and other kids made fun of him, but she was always there to defend him from the bullies and to keep him company. Both kids liked each other but before being able to confess, and even before Cong Rong knew Wen Shiaoqing's name, she had to move to another city. Wen Shiaoqing never forgot the girl and he kept going to the place where they promised to meet. Destiny makes the pair to reunite years later, although at first none of them had idea of their identities despite of remembering each other from their childhood. The drama tells how their reunion brings back the old memories and they are finally able to be together.
Not only their love story, but the drama also shows a little bit of Wen Shiaoqing's life as a doctor and Cong Rong's life as a lawyer. Plus the second couple's story, one of the most cute and adorable second couples I've seen.
One of the best things is the lack of misunderstandings. There is only one at a certain point, but it's resolved pretty quick. And also the love rivals (which in here are basically side characters) are obviously shown as what they are, love rivals, but both of them know their place and understand that the person they like already has someone in his/her heart.
There are quite a lot of kisses, nothing steamy but at least they show some normal interactions between a couple. And the ending credits of the last episode is one of the cutest things I've seen in a drama even if none of the actors appear, you will understand why once you watch it.
Acting
Not bad at all, better than expected. It's actually my first time seeing all these actors so I don't know if they have improved or not, but they did a nice job.
Music
I'm not a person that pays attention to the OST of dramas unless a song really catches my interest. But this one made it possible, that's why my rating is high (it's usually around 7 when no song got my attention).
Rewatch Value
Yes, probably once I have nothing new to watch or if I'm waiting for an ongoing drama to finish. I don't think I will rewatch it soon, but I'm sure I'll eventually experience this cute story again.

Good Romance story
If you are looking for a show that is pure romance without the major plot twist and other bells and whistles this is it. It is a well-known tale of childhood sweethearts reuniting and getting their happy ending, but the show was done in a refreshing manner. The show was entertaining without the need for unhealthy and toxic relationships.The main couple faces trials that are prevalent in everyday life, such as busy schedules and jealousy, making you feel as though you can relate to the beautiful story. The ML was manly and romantically assertive, without coming across as toxic and aggressive. While the FL was independent and smart, while simultaneously being reliant on the ML when necessary.
The second couple, though a but unhealthy relative to the main couple, displayed two people overcoming personal struggles to form a healthy and prosperous relationship.
There was a refreshing lack of overly toxic women-women feuds when one was thought to have begun the women of the show behaved in a mature manner to resolve the issue without unnecessarily becoming enemies over a man they both liked.

Great fluff & stuff show! Top of my favorites!!
If you are looking for a good down to earth almost true to life drama... this is it!I have to give this show 10/10! Several reasons for this...
Storyline- perfect! Well written and well executed! I am all for a clean, real to life show that feels natural. This one did that for me. No crazy controlling parents. No crazy love triangle! It was clean smooth and full of heart, laughter, and love. Sometimes we need that especially in these days. And thank you for the ending!!! It was perfect! I was totally satisfied and glad to see no rushed ending. I loved that there was no breakup and that they worked everything out like real adults!
Acting/cast- loved them all! I watched “Put Your Head on My Shoulders” (several times now) with both Tang Xiao Tian and Fei Xing. I really liked them both but this time I am glad to see them both as the main leads! They have great chemistry! Xiao Tang, (and I had a hard time believing it was him at first because he has changed since Put Your Head on My Shoulders.. for the good!?) I have to say, has gotten so much taller and so much cuter! ?They both have matured a lot. Their acting has improved. I loved them in this story. They did and amazing job!
Music- I LOVE the music in this drama! I really hope they put the soundtrack out an Amazon so I can add it to my playlist.
Rewatch- YES! Added it to my Viki favorite list. I will be watching it over and over again! I am really hoping they put it on Amazon so I can buy it!

Really sweet!! Love it!
I started this drama because I didn't have anything to watch and because I really like Fair Xing from other dramas. I end up doing a little marathon!The drama is so cute and sweet. Good points is that they don't have that mean girl, those break up (at some point I was expecting that, and I was really glad that that didn't happened), they all accept there love and no complications. And the Chemestry!! Oh my they are good!
They have really good references and poetry, that sometimes I didn't understand so I needed to look for it. And wow that was smart!
The second couple were cute too, more cliché haha but I really enjoy them.
I think I just didn't enjoy thta musch the earthquake part. but it is okay I guess. But the end was good, not like those rushy endings.
It was a very good drama!! I miss them already and I hope that they make more dramas together!

I can just say Wow for Wen ShiaoQin's kissing skills
this wasn't even in my plan to watch list, I didn't knew even know a single actor here but don't know how I ended up finishing the entire series and I loved it.The first episode when I was watching it didn't looked that special until I saw a scene that grabbed forcefully all my attention because of a piano sountrack was combined perfecly to that scene and that's from where I started to notice the high quality of it
Basically it was just a simple childhood friends love story but I fall in love with the story because of the great acting skilss of each character, music, scenery eveything started to look very beautiful and finally when they were togeter the sweet moments wouldn't stop...it was a total pleasure for heart and eyes
I fell in love with Wen ShiaQing's character he is too perfect, he is caring, handsome, wealthy...I just wonder if he needs aything else, nah I don't think
Now that I have finished watching it I'm missing it soo much, Just keep listening the beautiful OST it has

The Name of the Drama Explains it All.
This was quite frankly, the HAPPIEST C-drama I've ever watched. Now this is what I call a rom-com. It was romantic, funny, sweet and gave you a lot of heart fluttering moments. There were no love rivals, no breakups, no misunderstandings, NOTHING. The story was surprisingly good and this was the only c-drama that I didn't had to fast forward, skip episodes and I also didn't want it to end. It also had the best ending.The male lead is not what you would call traditionally handsome, but his height, charisma and charm made him so freakishly attractive. He also had this hot, sexy energy about him too. I enjoyed watching him when he came on screen. He was to play this cold, stoic genius, but when he was in love, oh man, the way he looked and touched the female lead and those kisses!!!! He was so sweet. We all need a boyfriend like Shao Qing. Also, when he finally smiled, he has the cutest smile. You can tell he was really into his role. Female lead was okay, but she didn't really bring the chemistry in some scenes. It actually looked as though he was more into her than she was with him, but I enjoyed watching them together. Weirdly enough, they had a great sexual chemistry though. I liked her better in PYHOMS.
The second leads stole the show for me. I loved them. They had the best chemistry and I really enjoyed the SFL. She was adorably dumb and annoying and you would get tired of her just crying all the time, but she was just so darn likable. SML was great too. He played his role well and has the prettiest eyes. I enjoyed watching their love story. All the other side characters were likable, especially the cousin. This drama didn't drag and they made the doctor and lawyer scenes interesting, so you wouldn't get bored. The acting from everyone wasn't awkward and it just felt natural.
All in all, this was a well done rom-com that can definitely be re-watched. Plenty of hot kisses, romance and just an easy drama to watch with zero angst or conflict. Give it a go.
