Deok mi and ryan gold are incredibly cute before and after they get into a relationship. Even when their relationship was on the rocks i was still laughing with them.
This is a chill and relax show, that avoided unnecessary conflicts between characters. Certain issues that needed to be addressed were addressed in a well handled fashion. I really did appreciate that this drama avoided the cliche break up scenes that is common in kdramas. This was honestly so enjoyable, i really do recommend.

Something was missing
The story started out really great and i enjoyed how it was playing out, but the story dragged out and felt rushed at the same time during the end.The story itself was really good, but i dont think it was executed well. I have to say shu zhan and xiao xing had great chemistry and were quite cute together, but their relationship fell through before it began. This annoyed me because there was no communication at all xiaoxing just ghosted shu zhan.
I think they could have done a better job developing the characters. Especially shu zhan and du nian. Du nain was a brat from the beginning and the last episode she was suddenly a golden child, i think they should have worked on that better. And shu zhan wasnt mature at all, he was just childish.
I think the ending was rushed because the problems each character was going through was resolved within an episode. I felt that it should have been discussed and developed more. And the ending was rushed as well and we don't really see what happens to our characters, an ending is just show withour much explanation.
Although the show was really enjoyable in the first few episodes, i felt like the story dragged out and had holes in it. During about the last three episodes i found myself skipping scenes because they seemed like a waste of time. You guys may like it but this story was not for me. The actors preformed well, but the story itself was lacking.

Plot:
The story was really good and displayed the relationship of Yi Han and Youyou really well. Whenever they had problems with each other they just talked it out rather than ignoring their problems and giving each other the cold should. Watching them trying to develop a relationship is actually quite hilarious because they hate each in the other in the beginning, so it transforms for a relationship to a love relationship. I really do appreciate how Youyou was able to accept her brother once he came into her life instead of resenting him. Youyou cares for her family amd it actually shows. The only thing i wish they did different was show the relationships of the side couples more. I felt like they were there, but there wasnt much to them.
Acting/Casting
I think the actors suited their roles well. Not only could i believe that weren't just acting, but living through their characters, they delievered their scenes really well. Im especially fond of Zhang Yu Jian, ive seen him in Find Yourself, and this role was very different and he did a great job acting it.
Music:
The music complimented the scenes well and the lyrics went along with what was going on the scenes. In my opinion it complimented the whole ambiance of the show.
Rewatch Value:
I personally wouldnt rewatch, but it is because i never rewatch dramas. For me the ending dragged out a bit, so thats why i wouldnt rewatch. But the beginning of the show was hilarious and i would rewatch for that.

I thought that the alternate universe was a refreshing spin on the show and the still had references to season 1, which made the show all more enjoyable. I do believe this was the right way to go about season 2 because in season 1 LYZ faking XL's leukaemia was incredibly cruel. This reboot gave a less stalkerish role and he was someone you could root for the whole time. In this season, the way the couple came together was more natural and there were less mind games, which was better for everyone.
The side couples were featured a bit more than last season and their stories were still incredibly cute. Only thing I can say is I prefer Chu Yan and Xiao You/Ruan Meng in season 1. They were still very cute in this season. But i thought they were funnier in season 1, but their romance story is just as powerful.
I think you guys should watch it. I think the story is more approachable and has a sweeter touch to it. This season was funnier too.
