We don't have the same preferences, maybe what others say is not good will be a GOOD one for you.

This is the very first time that I will give a review, I often just leave my opinion after watching on the comment section but now I want to write a review for this , Considering this is my first review please bare with me, also I'm not very good at writing but I will do my best for my love for this drama.

First let me talk about the good things about this drama, Not only the ML and FL have a good acting skills but also the supporting casts did really well, there are also some scenes that made me laugh. The ML and FL I felt that they are comfortable to each other right away after they meet on the first episode, not like other typical dramas that main couples are going to fight or they are bickering couples then starts to fall in love, I'm a bit bored with that already, But not in this they meet and then the FL propose for an engagement on the other side and then boom their relationship just starts to slowly develop in a natural way. Their kissing scenes are great I find the way they kiss is so cute and kissing scenes are a bit a lot . So considering that the FL is cool and a badass in contrast the ML is a bit weak but caring and I think its a good blend like they say in science Like charges repel Unlike charges attract.

And now of course not all dramas/always are perfect there are always flaws, So first one is that the story is a bit messy and that there are times that you will question if what happen to that or him, like that example is that they did not tell us if what happened to the FL's father, about the Future Group the ML did not fight for it and vanished and did not talk about it again, like that, The story should have been polished a bit. Another thing was that there were a lot of characters that I think are not necessary. Another things that I was asking all the time is that is this drama a low budget because I observe that the characters specially the leads have wore their clothes repeatedly I mean its alright to repeat clothes but on their case its a bit a lot and I think that will affect their character because they are considered to have a high status in the society since they are business people. But then DESPITE of all of this I don't know but I ended up LOVING this DRAMA so MUCH! That I'm downloading it for a REWATCH.

** I'll share an interesting thing I don't know if those that have watched this saw it.
in Ep. 7, The staff sitting behind the scene got caught even if its dark I saw it clearly, it made me laugh, Its impossible that during the editing and filming they did not see it on the screen and should have edited it I think they just leave it as it is for a purpose hahaha.

Even if others say that this drama is really good there will always be a one person that would not like it, because not all of us have the same preferences, so from that I suggest that you just jump into it and go see it for your self and come back later to give a comment you might turn out to love it in the end. Don't be affected by the negative comments and the ratings better find it out. I you ask if I recommend this drama my answer is a big YES totally despite of the flaws I can say I Still ENJOYED it so much.
I did not expect that my review would be this long but I hope you reach reading until here and I had helped you for the reason why you came here to read reviews.

Cute story

I never write reviews and wasn't gonna write one but I saw a negative review so here's a positive one ?
here's my opinion on the drama:
The main leads acting are great and the supports acting were all good too and I think only like one of the support character had like not that good acting skills.
The main ost played only like 3 times, I think the song was like 喜欢上你 I'm not really sure i skipped the front and ending but the song 喜欢上你 is good.
The story is not that complicated, it's pretty simple and even though Main Guy Lead seemed like a 小奶狗, like weak and soft and stuff, he's actually not at all, everyone thinks he's dumb but man actually has like a bunch of degrees (idk i don't remember ?), he's just smart aight :D Female Lead also gives you the impression that she's strong and has no weakness and is a queen and all but she actually has a backstory and a lot of weaknesses and needs protection ? She knows how to deal with stuff herself but there are also parts where he helps her out ? not like those girls who needs a hero to save at every minute dramas. He is also not weak like he can deal with his own stuff too. He's not that mature though and he trusts people too much which led to ? (watch the drama if you wanna know ?) The second couple was super cute too and honestly all the characters fit in the drama very well like idk how to explain but :D This drama is indeed super business based but you can definitely see how much the two of them love each other ? I actually really liked the business parts, even though it's sort of a bit dramatic, business people won't really get on that many hot searches. and yea that's it idk wut else to say ?

Interesting from 1 to 24

Basically this drama kept my interest level high throughout episode 1 to 24. There isn’t much screen time that makes me feel bored or unnecessary.

Honestly I do not understand why this show only has a rating of 7.4? Luckily I gave it a try or i would have missed a great show that makes me feel good watching. Totally enjoyable.

The chemistry between the main leads are great and their acting is great too. Most supporting cast did well in their acting too. First of all it’s a comedy romance show so please judge fairly based on it tag and give this drama justice. It’s definitely a good RomCom that deserve much better rating.

There’s nothing too dark in this show and mostly are neutralized by those comedic character so I would say it’s quite light hearted. The female lead is strong and domineering but definitely soft and cute and enjoy being protected by the male lead. Plus point is FL is super pretty and has a great smile with super dimple <3 ML might look weak as compared to FL but he is definitely no sheep that needs to be protected by the FL. He is sharp and smart and is capable and does well in what he does. Even without FL help you know that he could still succeed. How they fell in love is also natural. Love the romance between them.

Conclusion: I highly recommend this ROMCOM. Especially after you watch some stressful drama and wants to change the pace to something enjoyable and can make u smile. My overall rate for the show is 9/10 totally based on my enjoyable value. I rarely write reviews and I just could not stand the low rating on this show so i wanted to give some positive feedback and not let this Gem left unchecked

Kudos

Two Gigantic Leaders In One Project

‘Love Together’ was more realistic title than Trial Marriage because the drama not related to an arrangement of a couple live together for a period of time to see if they are compatible for marriage or not. But they’re married since they’re liked each others.

▪️Main Points
~ Two leaders in different companies have two different of motives. One for acquisition of shares and opportunities to get her father’s recognition. For the other one is to restore the old project by his late father to help him make it successful.

▪️Short Synopsis
Ye Chengsu returned from his study in overseas and became a CEO of Weilai Group. He want to replace his late father by continuing in an unfinished project. At first many obstacles happened in order to restore this project but he did not gave up. He was engaged with Gu Lingse from Dingzhuang Group and agreed to marry her as they’re both grow to like each other. At first Gu Lingse plans to make an agreement to help Ye Chengsu got the acquisition of shares in Weilai Group but later his father make her to acquire the company from Chengsu. Many conflicts happened as there’s a spy within the company. Thus they both do not have a happy marriage as they’re in argument status.

▪️Characters Intro
~ Chen Ze was acts in different roles in every dramas. I had watched his acting from three dramas. He was really good at acting and potential to be a good actor. He acts as Ye Chengsu as a Ceo. He acts as a naive and foolish character but he was clever enough to deal with enemy. He fell in love with Gu Lingse and knew that she was nice.
~ Wang Pei Han as Gu Lingse. She was a dominance, young and successful Ceo. She’s pretty clever as she make the deal with Ye Chengsu’s uncle to help him get the acquisition of shares. She also obey his father as he controlled her with her mother. She also fallen in love with Chengsu as she knew him closer.

▪️Dislikes
~ The two people were first met at Airport.
Ye Chengsu came back from overseas and happened to help a child fell and cried but her mother blamed him and asked him to pay for his careless. Gu Lingse appears at that time and showed a phone telling her that she recorded the video for that situation. That mother was angry and broke her phone. In order to pay for her kindness, Chengsu gave his phone to her. She asked his name and said they’ll meeting again. This part was a bit disappointed since they’re met in that ways for the first time.
~ There were many spies within the company in this drama. I’m really hate to see those who acts as spy and gave the information to enemy.
~ Did not finished one project (Mulin Town) then already come with another project (Yanshen Street). It seems like these was not realistic at all.

▪️Overall
I think this drama was a bit slow and boring. Even though it has a lot of kisses between the leads but it still doesn’t seem to capture my heart to fully like it. But for ending, it was quite satisfying since all couples got together. There three couples including female lead’s mother with that uncle. But it’s pity that there’s no marriage reception at the end of the shows even they’re said that they were legally married. They only showed that they have a son and their business was successful.

*This drama was only 30 minutes per episode so it’s quite fast to finish all the episodes.

A confusing tale of the Gu family company...

This drama is not worth your time! First messy storyline, way too many kelefe ! Unnecessary character and development. The story got so confusing. Don't let the trial marriage trick you. Their relationship is barely there.

Basically the Gu family sends the daughter ( female lead) to go on an arranged marriage to the Wei Lei corporation Wei Lai corp belongs to the male lead's father who past away but currently the company is looked after by Uncle Jiang. Female lead's father is an asshole who will do anything to try to get Wei Lai company. He is a selfish, crazy and verbally abusive to the female lead. He gives her orders and use her to try to take control of Wei Lai company. However, she falls in love with the male lead an decides not to help her dad. Why her dad is an asshole... He left the female lead's mom and kinda put her under a ward to be monitored.

Female lead wants to take revenge for all her dad has done! The romance is quite sweet and fresh but unfortunately not enough! It focuses more on trying to acquire Wei Lai company more than anything. So many side characters get the lime light!

Real cute series for sure

I am a real sucker for series with strong FL character. It’s got quite a good pace although I got confused for a moment while watching the series. The second couple was pretty cute too!

It would be definitely better if there was a little more part towards the end (I meant the epilogue part). I love the chemistry between the ML/FL there is this younger guy older woman thing going on although I’m not sure within the series how much older she’s supposed to be but it’s utterly adorable when they have their moments.

Cute couple but confusing narration

By looking at the title you would expect the story would be mainly about ML & FL relationship but it is not the case.

There are few scenes between ML & FL which you may like, a music score which comes often in the back ground is good,
except that there is nothing in this series worth of watching.

Illogical:
There is a scene in which ML found a box which was left by his father 20 years ago on some tower in a remote place, it is a small box, how can the box still be there, it is a open space, what about storms, the drawings inside the box are still not damaged, it is ridiculous to see that scene and ML left the box there itself & later it was picked by SML which caused a drastic change in the story.

Story narration is not good:
it is confusing, sometimes you may wonder what is going on like in ep 17 when ML secretary said that FL is disappeared (but it is explained in later episode by that time you would be already thinking of dropping from watching)
How SML became chairman of GU family company ? It was showed clearly how ML became a share holder of the GU family company but we don't know how SML became a share holder & how he became a chairman, he said he draw some drawings & he was elected as the chairman, you may get confused.
There are several scenes like this which aren't narrated properly & we get confuse while watching them.

Sometimes you feel cool while watching chemistry between ML & FL but mostly you feel confused.
Overall, it is not worthy of VIP, you can watch some scenes between FL & ML in youtube or somewhere else, no need to watch 24 episodes.

Love Can Define You

Director, Editor and screenplay writer they are very intelligent the way they handled the story
I think there is some budget problems in production side dew to this problem they compressed the story to budget friendly
If they didn't do that we can able to see more episodes and complete story
So many cut off and edited patchwork scenes in this drama
But even so they can manage to give good outcome in this way they are intelligents
All the artists are deliberately lived in to Characters Especially main lead chemistry & their screen presences is Lovable & cute

Catchy starting & plot, but the sequel is disappointing

PLOT: business marriage contract between 1 young CEO (building & architect) and 1 heiress (mistreated by her family). She wants to destroy her (abusive) father's company, he wants to make his dead father's dream come true.
-> Monopoly game between company directors, old acquaintances but rivals.

+ catchy debut
+ very pleasant starting song
+ the actors do their all to bring this story to life, but some still need to improve their acting skills.

### Low-budget production (few costumes & sets)
### Storyline not always realistic, especially in the last episodes with inexplicable changes in behavior of the characters.
### Eng subs = Google subs :(

=> This could have made 1 good series (good plot and start) but m(@´_`@)m
****************************************************************************************
PLOT: contrat de mariage pour affaires entre 1 jeune CEO (BTP) et 1 héritière (maltraitée par sa famille). Elle veut détruire la Sté de son père (abusif), lui veut concrétiser le rêve de son père DCD.
-> Jeu de Monopoly entre dirigeants de Sté +/- amis mais rivaux.

+ débuts accrocheurs
+ starting song très agréable
+ les acteurs font ce qu'ils peuvent pour faire vivre cette histoire, mais certains doivent encore progresser en termes d'acting skills.

### Production low-budget (peu de costumes & de décors)
### Storyline pas tjs réaliste, surtt ds les derniers épisodes avec des revirements de comportement inexplicables des personnages.
### Eng subs = Google subs :(

=> Cela aurait pu faire 1 bonne série (bon plot et début) mais m(@´_`@)m

Not bad but nothing special

The plot was originally interesting, but how the scenes played out could use some improvement. Honestly, the entire show was a little dull and certain parts were quite confusing. There are a lot of plot holes and unnecessary scenes were included here and there. But the actors were good and I loved them, which is the only reason I finished the show. Overall it was not really a waste of time, per se, but it's not something I would recommend to others. I have this bad habit of skipping opening and ending credits so I can't really comment on the soundtrack of this show.

Don’t waste your time on this!

I’ve had this drama on my watching list for a long time. So much so that I have finished many dramas while simultaneously watching this one. Many of these other dramas were airing at the time. If I can estimate how long it took me to finally complete this it was about two to three months. Fir me it was just okay until episode 15 from there on it was messy and nonsensical so for a lot of the time I would actually find myself skipping through the episodes. Hobestly I really wanted to give it a chance and not drop it which is why I kept it going until I finally finished it. I usually have at least something good to say about the dramas I watch even if they sucked, but this one was bad as a whole. The story was bad, the characters were difficult to get attached with. The music score was meh. And I could continue to go on and on about how bad everything was executed. So my recommendation to you who is considering watching this… Don’t bother. It’s not worth it. China has produced many awesome dramas but this is not one of them.
