Jiang Tang and Feng Ling are brought together through an arranged marriage between their families, but unexpectedly, this seemingly ordinary family alliance conceals hidden complications. At first, Feng Ling is completely opposed to the marriage, but as they spend time together, Jiang Tang's charm gradually wins his heart. Meanwhile, business rivalries and family conflicts arise one after another, and a secret that Jiang Tang has kept hidden for many years is also about to come to light.

Plenty of physical intimacy but no emotional depth

Jiejie/older woman-younger man romance is my favourite trope. I appreciate that there are plenty of vertical dramas that cover this trope. Both Meng Na and Ye Hao Ran have acted in jiejie romance before so I had high expectations. However I was disappointed by the time I completed this drama.

If you want to watch better jiejie romance by these leads, look for either "Define Your Style" starring Meng Na & Liang Si Wei or "Wei Nian Ci Sheng" starring Ye Hao Ran & Sheng Yi Jie. Alternatively search for "Fake Love" starring Bai Yan & Feng Xiang Kun. That's my personal favourite jiejie romance from vertical dramaland.

What I liked:
1. Supporting characters - I really liked FL's brother as I thought his protectiveness was realistic. Grandpa was likeable.
2. Styling - I really liked ML's styling from hair & accessories to clothes and shoes. He looked very hip for someone in top management.

What I disliked:
1. Romance - Plenty of kissing and they got along well sexually but there was no emotional depth between ML & FL. It is frustrating that they never voiced out their feelings until the last 10 minutes of this drama. This drama is 2.5 hours long! I also disliked that FL was the one doing the most heavy lifting in the relationship.
2. ML characterisation - Feng Ling was insecure IMHO. I disliked his inner monologue about his feelings for his wife.
3. FL characterisation - There was a glimpse of FL at work but overall I was disappointed that most scenes of FL were related to her relationship with ML. It was as though her existence in this drama is to support ML's journey of romantic love.
4. Duration - This drama was too long for a simple, lack of communication romance. I fast-forwarded once I reached 1 hour 45 minute mark.

Favourite scene
FL took initiative on their first night as husband and wife

Much of Kisses without chemistry

Love Meng Na finally got bad ass sugar mama role since most of her drama was her being bullied left and right. Ye Haoran played another younger brother role. The plot was okay and not dragged but somehow lack emotional feeling on the naration. The kisses was there but there is no emotional chemistry from Meng Na and Ye Haoran. The star of this drama is actually Female lead brother and supporting character. Only recommend if you are fans of Meng Na and/or Ye Hao Ran.
