Filmed manhua

Starting from the ridiculous and incomprehensible title,to the fortunately short episodes and the storyline adding one clishé after another ending with corny love speech, this is a mercifully short and a really fun watch!

It is the usual setting of rich CEOs and hairesses going through family dramas and fights over money and for power.

This story's only originality is the main male character who is it the wheelchair! And for once it is not presented as an ultimate tragedy. He happens to be handicapped (until the last minute when he miraculously regains his ability to walk!) but that does not mask the fact that he is smart and competent and always there when she is in a pickle! Female lead was also better than usual, not too much of a damsel in distress batting her eyelids and waiting to be saved, she was proactive and at least knew when someone was trying to take advantage of her.

Ah, the magic of manhua, the cold CEO with a hidden heart of gold wearing the ubiquitous pin striped suit (so ugly!) and the sweet cooky girl not letting anyone walk all over her and using the feminine wiles to give the bad guys their comeuppance! Every short episode seemed to be literally filmed episode of a manhua, without any special rewrite or editing involved in order to make it more palatable. But, just like mangas, I prefer reading over watching them: the things that happen in a book should be toned down for screen. Just my take on this issue!

The acting was mostly over the top, cinematography looked cheap, and sets seemed vulgar and bling bling(as in: Let me show everyone how rich I am!). And the music was a bit weird and inaudible mostly(copyright issues on youtube?).

I usually never watch c dramas: I can't stand the number of episodes but I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered these micro episodes dramas. This is the fourth one I watch, the novelty has worn off and I think this is going to be my last one. I want to stick to my principles!
