Must Watch!!!
This drama is extremely underrated and one of the best drama i watched this year. This drama actually talks about covers a lot of social issues including sexual harassment, working politics, gender inequality in workplace and forced marriage by parents however they produce it in a light and enjoyable way so you won feel pressured when watching all this social issues. Besides, the love story plot of this drama also happens very naturally which is different than most of the chinese love drama nowadays where those love happens like unlogically and for no reason the girl and guy just love each other after few glance. Oh ya one last thing, the plots of this drama is also very logic and natural, its like you won see things like a female villain hate the female lead for no reason.Was this review helpful to you?

Nice headstart but normal ending
the first half of this drama is very interesting because of the humour played by the main, its funny but not silly. The business strategies used in this drama is really interesting and is very addictive to watch. The characters especially the male lead and female lead are very interesting and lively. The male lead is smart and cute while female lead is also smart and independent. Just this main lead characters already shows how this drama is different from those other dramas where normally the main lead is handsome,stone face,no expressions while the female is silly and only know how to rely on male lead.This drama also succeeded because they found the right cast for the male and female lead. the male lead gives out a cute,witty and economy genius vibe while the female lead gives out a pretty and intelligent vibe. However, I don really like the second half of this drama(starting from the bandits scenes) because this drama suddenly turned from interesting and fun to political.Plus i felt like the two main leads will perform better if they are given roles that suit their vibes like the first part(Suzhou business) of this drama.
One part for improvement,I personally think that this drama should just continue with the fun and interesting part like maybe Ning Yi and Su Tan Er can compete with Lou family in terms of business and even become the richest family in the country. I felt confused when they tried to involve Ning Yi in politics because they are trying to turn ning yi from a business genius to a tactician. I would have give this drama a 9 or 10 if not for the bandit part.

12 episodes is just too little
Well I just finished watching 12 episodes and here I am commenting about what I like and dislike about this drama.Story
Lets start with the story plot.The story plot itself is very interesting and cannot say like there is never been a drama like this but this theme(friendship between 2 female lead) is still not a common theme right now, So the plot itself is fresh and not boring.
Presentation
As we know beside story, the way the director present a drama also can be very important. Sometimes the plot can be the same but the presentation can be different.For this drama,I really like the presentation too.The director manage to present this drama in a mysterious way making this drama very attractive.
Acting skills
For the acting skills,Xu youyi's acting skills cannot say like extremely well or shines but its still passable considering the difficulty of this character is not low and the actor itself is not a very experienced actor. For yanwei, I really like this character but ya the difficulty for the character is slightly lower compare to xu youyi.
Music
I really love the songs in this drama including the ost and the other side songs.The songs are all very nice and fit to the mysterious theme of this drama.
Anything to improve?
First dislike is obviously the length of this drama,12 episodes is definitely not enough considering a lot of mysteries has not been solved.For example,yan wei"s background.And next is the you can feel that a lot of important scenes is cut off.I guess because this drama only 12 episodes so they cutted off a lot major scenes making you feel like did you just miss a few episodes?Really hope there will be a season 2 and the director can lengthen the drama a bit so that we won feel like scenes getting cut again.
