There is CP feeling in Huang Yunyun and Jin Jiayu

There is too many version but personally i enjoy this drama. This version has better makeup, styling, and overall flow. The script is also smoother although the ending feel a bit rushed.

Jin Jiayu and Huang Yunyun have great chemistry. Their banter is witty and pleasing to watch. Jian Jiayu is one of great kisser he could make those kissing scene not looked too gross. Both of leads have comfortable on their character representation and make their interaction too natural.

Still i could recommended this version since a few of another version has worse point than this drama.

Zhai Yiying first enjoyable drama..

Actually i watch this last year i never think Zhai Yiying has acting skill until i see this. Personally i liked Wang Yiran-Shi Tong drama so i give my self try to see another version.

I consider this Zhai Yiying's representative drama. Her makeup and styling in this drama suit her better than in any other drama I've seen. She perfectly embodies the charming cuteness of a young girl, and her crying scenes are decent. For me she is better Wen Li on this version than Shi Tong.

This is my first time watching Li Quan Cheng's drama, but his sexual tension is amazing. I realized this is also his peak in terms of styling. However, their two kissing scenes are like two clam spirits, terrible. The flaws don't detract from the overall quality. He needs to catch up Wang Yiran acting skill.

One thing I don't understand is that ML is also reborn, so why did he keep rejecting the FL in the beginning? He never understand love in either of his two lives.

Ordinary Revenge drama

Typical ordinary revenge plot, the story's ingenious plot structure is like a nested maze. Lack of romance and its fine since Hu Dong Qing and Liu Xiao Xu didn't have any chemistry. The kiss was too dry. Their acting is excellent, but the tension just doesn't appear in scene.

While the opening is indeed generic, some scenes are meticulously designed. For example, the fact that the FL was raised by her father's killer is itself a part of her childhood scheme. Furthermore, the fact that her adoptive father uses drugs to control her is far more sophisticated than using her mother's ashes, her sick grandmother, or her vegetative grandmother like usual Chinese short drama.

The plot is relatively simple, the pace is fast, and overall it's just average. I watched it because of Liu Xiao Xu.

The point was for Wang Nan

This review is dedicated for Wang Nan.

Plot is about FL meets ML gentle philanthropist, and they fall in love and marry. What she thought would be the start of a happy life turns into a nightmare. Initially traumatized by her childhood, she hides the truth from her husband. She's also threatened with intimate photos by the SML , making her afraid to confess. ML was not good person either. He's committed many illegal acts, and the philanthropist persona is just a facade.

Wang Nan's portrayal of the ML, who suffers from schizophrenia, is incredibly intense, particularly his abusive behavior and intense gaze was so scary. Wang Nan's delivery and acting skills are definitely good enough for serious dramas. I'm liking him more and more; his performance in this drama was truly outstanding.

Personally i like the message from this drama but Zuo Yi acting are not my cup of tea.

It was more depth than common revenge drama

I was quite happy to see Ma Le Jie and Chen Gang acting in this drama.

Based on the synopsis, I thought it was just a typical revenge-themed drama, but after watching half of it, I realized it wasn't that simple. FL emotional is well-developed, far superior to typical revenge dramas. The only thing that can hurt her is the behavior of the ML (after all, she loved him deeply and wasn't completely disappointed, so it's understandable).

Even when FL patience and love to ML are completely gone, and she's pregnant, she resolutely refuses to turn back, her only thought being to keep the child and leave the father.

The mistress isn't your average mistress (I won't spoil it here; you'll find it more interesting to watch), and the SML also has his own love interest. The supporting characters aren't stereotypical or merely tools, making the drama's scope far greater than typical revenge dramas. The pacing is tight and smooth, the network of relationships is vast and complex, the characters are well-developed, and the plot is full of twists and turns, making it captivating.

I really like the ending it was refreshing.

Only the kiss and FL characterization are worth to watch.

Real Couple is genuinely appealing with great figures, and the intimate scenes are well-done, especially the kissing scenes. The bedroom scenes in the first two episodes are also very atmospheric. FL characterization is well-developed—she's charmingly spoiled, adorable, and doesn't easily be bullied. She's also brave in matters of the heart and directly expresses her feelings.

The downsides are that the logic feels somewhat flawed, and too many plot holes seem designed to advance the main storyline. As a result, you can't really watch it with your brain. It's hard to understand why someone wearing a mask covering half their face wouldn't recognize someone they've been living with every day, why ML wouldn't even glance at the FL 's face before leaving after sleeping with her, and why he didn't know her disguise despite spending so much time with her, with no further explanation about it until the very end. ML in here was too stupid it make me wonder how come he become CEO and still get money despite his mindless brain.

Overall, it's a pretty good short drama suitable for mindless, sweet romance, especially for those who ship Cui Shiyi and Chen Jinghe.

The sweetest drama of Jia Yixuan and Zhen Ziqi.

It's rare to see Zhen Ziqi in this kind of sweet romance drama. So it must watch!

Childhood sweethearts! Bickering lovers! Arranged marriage to fall in love! FL is forced into marriage and unexpectedly marries the person she's been longing for for twenty years. Although I've seen similar plots before, this one is handled more reasonably and warmly. The mutual unrequited love from childhood makes the emotional development of the ML and FL more delicate and believable.

Fortunately, Leads eventually overcame the misunderstandings and obstacles and lived happily ever after. Recommended of you want to see sweet drama of Jia Yixuan and Zhen Ziqi.

Surprisingly sweet drama without angst

I watch this because of Peng Yao. Surprisingly the chemistry between Peng Yao and Cao Tian Kai are good to see even better than few of Cao Tian Kai previous FL.

This is the fastest record of Cao Tian Kai showing his abs less than 3 minutes in beginning of the drama and he just using blazer to flaunt his body (I am not complaining).

I forgot the other version (perhaps Yuyin-Yao Guanyu one but i don't really fond of that drama). The plot is rich, the pacing is tight and smooth, the logic and details are reasonable, and it's pure sweetness throughout.

ML is a cunning wolf, endlessly doting and flirting, while the FL is a cunning little rabbit, weak but intelligent, and always tries to find ways to save herself instead of waiting for the ML. There are almost no misunderstandings between them throughout the series; they're both talkative, and later, when they're manipulated by the villain, things might drag but not too long unlike other dramas.

The only drawback might be that the ML's uncontrollable emotions are quite obvious, while the FL's emotional moments lack subtlety. However, its still worth to watch.

Maybe I am not into this CP.

I watched Wang Haozhen-Hou Chengyue second collab and it was the best of their other works but never be my favorite pair from the both actors.

The ML's scheme is long term planned; the female lead falls in love after an arranged marriage. It's a sweet and angsty story with no angst. Both have good personalities, are straightforward, and their love is decisive. There's no SFL because it's impossible. The male lead is a perfect character; no woman other than the female lead could get close to him.

The chemistry between the leads is there, the sweetness is enough, there are no villains, and no melodramatic plot twists, but it's just too bland and boring. The leads character is not engaging and they dont have magic to charm me. It's a very ordinary romance between two extremely wealthy people, with almost no conflict from beginning to end.

It's not my cup of tea of Wang Haozhen sweet works. Maybe their solo fans will enjoy instead.

Nice FL improvement

I watched this when i was obsessed with Teng Zewen and if you want to see romance, i suggest you to skip because the drama is solely focused on FL character development.

Plot is about FL who was transmigrated into 1980 and found herself as fat woman who had been fooled by young scumbag. She had been dumped in front of neighbor and didn't know about her husband appearance since they are never met.

I like how FL want to gain her own money by selling noodles and naturally make her body more skinnier due hard work for making noodle and selling noodle in front of her husband factory.

Wang Daotie in here is just like icing sugar on cupcake. He is basically FL support system and there is almost non of their romantic scene so it feels the relationship is platonic.

Recommended to watch if you want to see character development on Female Lead.
