Fluff, love and kitties

When I started watching this I liked it immediately. It was sort of funny, light, the female lead isn't as dumb and useless as tons of fl characters I watched throughout the past months in Chinese dramas, the secondary couple is lovely as well (though I'm usually not much into the secondary characters) and there were quite a bunch of cute scenes as well. Still I felt like the drama lost its spice towards the end and the relationship got stuck at some point. The kisses felt a bit stiff to me as well unfortunately, therefore I agree with others that they could have certainly invested more time into the main couple and their romance.

I enjoyed the fact that we made it without a damn annoying female character on the side and that the relationship displayed was rather stable. Furthermore there was no weird family. A great plus for this. Something lots of dramas lack unfortunately. As a result there were no extremely unreasonable drama scenes either. Still I felt a bit disappointed that they found no good alternative. Instead they focused on business struggles, that's fine, but it wasn't as exciting in the first place. A different solution would've been great in my opinion.

To sum it up: If you're tired of slaps in the face, money-wielding mothers and sudden 3-year-separation-issues: watch this. It has its funny, entertaining and cute parts, but it might get a bit boring as well sometimes. Still, I didn't regret watching this and I hope we'll get dramas with a similar base in the future. Just with a tiny bit more... relationship development?!
