This is another older woman/younger man drama that falls flat at the end! The drama’s best part was the sisterhood relationship between Xun Xun and her best friend Zhou Quan; it’s really nice and endearing. The part of the synopsis about working hard to get custody of her child is not even one of the premises of the drama since the issue is put on the back burner and there is no resolution to it. The show is about Xun Xun becoming Cheng Li’s lover and supporter that eventually becomes the way that he gets healed from his childhood trauma. Their relationship started out with a potentially good romantic story but it went flat when Xun Xun decided that marriage was not an option for her. The biggest issue is that the story doesn’t resolve the lack of trust that Xun Xun has about Cheng Li’s love and level of maturity to want to establish a family with her. The story makes it almost a comedic and cute plot as he’s left waiting for her to decide when she would be ready for marriage ever again since it seems that a 23 year old man, who seems mature enough to make good and firm decisions throughout the drama, is not mature enough for marriage. It’s really disappointing when an older woman gets into a relationship with a younger man and the resolution is: sit and wait for me! How about people reaching their goals together? Maybe the writers have not heard of that concept yet!
