Enjoyable/Cute Drama To Watch

SPOILERS AHEAD, WARNING!!!!

Honestly, this was such a lighthearted Chinese drama I have ever watched. I have to say it is probably one of my top 10 favorite Chinese series. This drama is about a unique love between Gu Jia Xin and Zhao Jiang Yue. There are many aspects of this drama that I enjoy and some that I believe this drama missed. So, let's go over my views.

What I liked about this series?
- love how Gu Jia Xin was determined to win over her no matter the obstacles he faced/battled. He fought for with such true love of his. Although Gu Jia Xin knew that the girl was in love with another guy, he still helped and guided Zhao Jiang Yue to chase after the other guy. Gu Jia Xin fell in love with her during the process of how to teach her to pursue another person. However, Gu Jia Xin was smart about making the girl fall in love with him as well. Gu Jia Xin persevered through the hardships he had to face by giving up his career to work for his mom's company for her to get the best care for his best friend who was in the hospital due to an incident.
Another thing that I liked about him is that although Zhao Jiang Yue was his boss, he was never mean, snobbish, selfish, or rude in any way. On the contrary, he was polite in every aspect and even offered his help of how the boss can receive love from the other guy. Gu Jia Xin supported his girlfriend's career no matter what, and he also waited until she was ready to be his girlfriend. Although he pressured her a little into marriage, he stopped asking for marriage because he realized the message of why he shouldn't. He never left her side; although she did some things to him, he still forgave. Overall, he was my favorite throughout the show.

- Zhao Jiang Yue, this character was phenomenal as well. She can be a little frustrating in some episodes, but I understand her perspective as well. What annoyed me about her is that she made a chart comparing two men after Gu Jia Xin confessed his love towards her. She was so conflicted with love because she did not know what love was, and therefore she made that chart to decide who was better for her. I wish she didn't do that, but oh well. Although she caught it in the end, she felt sorry. Gu Jia Xin was mad for a bit, but he knew to forgive her because she struggled with dealing with love, and that's another thing I loved about him. Another reason I like Zhao Jiang Yue's character because she was all about equality when it comes to relationships. What the men do, the women can do it as well. She knew she wasn't ready for marriage yet, because she wanted to make sure that she could give in all she could. She waited till she knew when that moment was. Zhao Jiang Yue proposed to her boyfriend at the end of the show, and I love that. The show portrayed that men don't have to do the proposing; women can do it. She made a lovely video diary of how she was proposing to Gu Jia Xin, which was so cute that it made me teary eyes. Overall her character was terrific as well.

- The relationship between the boss and the assistant. The supervisor is FL, while the assistant is ML. This is a relationship between a woman and a young man. ONE OF THE BEST CHEMISTRIES I HAVE SEEN. THEY HAVE GREAT CHEMISTRY.
- adorable side couple (Duo Xi & Qi Heng)
- The OSTs in this drama are fantastic. I've added each one to my music collection.
- Character development for the side couples, side characters, and our main leads. Basically everyone had great chemistry and good development.
- Love note advice at the end of each episode
- A satisfying and happy ending
- I loved how Gu Jia Xin, never gave up on his dreams
- I love how Zhao Jian Yue helped Gu Jia Xin to not give up his dreams over an accident. She supported his career no matter what.
- I like how Gu Jia Xin never left his best friend side and visited and told him about his achievements.

- the message that this show portrayed. You will understand the message once you watch it.

What I disliked about the show?
- clingness from Li Yan Ran
- Li Yan Ran, in the beginning, was annoying. Although she loved the main male lead, he never loved her. He often told her that he doesn't feel the same way in a friendly, polite manner, but she never backed down. She was always stuck to his side like glue. Another thing that bothered me is that she knew the guy that she liked, liked the boss. He even told her that he loved someone else, but she wouldn't take the hint. Therefore the guy that the main female lead liked, she teamed up with him to split up the assistant and the boss. The boss, Zhao Jian Yue, and the assistant Gu Jia Xin were always together because they lived in the same apartment complex, and they made a deal for lessons on how to guide the boss to pursue the other guy. Gu Jia Xin did not use any tricks to interfere when Zhao Jian Yue chased after someone else. Li Yan Ran made it difficult at the beginning for those two because of tactics. They weren't harmful tactics; they were just annoying. Although throughout the end, her development gets better.

- There was one small villain, she gets taken care of in a good way. I never liked her.
-Worse, the writers attempted to elicit sympathy for the villain. Thank you, but no!

What I wished that happened?
- Although we got to see that his best friend awake, I would've love to seen the reaction from Gu Jia Xin, Zhao Jiang Yue, and his mother of him waking up.
- The female main lead best friend Qian Jing Jing is pregnant, that was sudden. I wish we got to see the reaction of her telling her husband.
- I liked the ending and its overall message, but I low-key wished we got to see a wedding.

Overall this series was very enjoyable to watch. Lots of fluffiness which wasn't cringy at all. This series is not at all cringy. I would say its a comforting series to watch. I enjoyed the series, it had its issues but we can bypass it with the great production, story, chemistry, development, and acting. I hope this review helps.

I hope that they have a special episode of them after marriage.
