They cannot catch the novel charm

I watch this and feel lukewarm about it, i read the novel before so this drama don't catch the authentic charm. Hao Yun tried her best to get immersed to her role and maybe my comedic code didn't match her. The actual loveline are not having great chemistry Huang Haowen feels so dull in here and he is not suited for comedy unfortunately. Li Jingze is still decent but i dont have any impression in this drama. Hats up to Ma Fayang since he is one who are shine with his character despite lack of screentime, if there is no him i would dropped this drama fast as light. The eat the dog part is so unnecessary.

Lovely Drama with Lovely Main Leads

I regretted by not watching this too soon. It was warmth and slice-of-life drama.

The growth progress in FL are quite wonderful for being not favorable despite her achievement by her family until she make big decision by marrying ML. Gong Fang Ni is one of rare actress that make cute character are not artificial and overacts. FL friend is her sole support beside ML.
ML is self aware when he know he was sleeping with her student, which is rare male character moment in short drama. Charon is definitely work on his specialized green flag character. The romance is perfect for every part of it the phase when they are communicating about their concern. The chemistry was too lovely to see and it gives real reaction about how older man/young woman couple are usually do.

Highlight to this drama by implicating misogyny attitude by FL family neglecting their daughter despite her wonderful achievement over their son always being pampered despite being loser in real life. ML family reaction when they know their son got shotgun marriage with younger student is too relatable.

Recommended to watch.

Only Gingseng keep me from dropping this drama.

I watch this and finally finished this quite have mixed emotion when i watch this.
I love Ma Qian Qian acting as gingseng girl and her way of bringing Yun Shen Shen
clumsiness is quite adorable. I don't have any comment on Huang Haowen since his acting is actually not bad in this drama but somehow he makes this drama quite boring.
Actually there is slight angst between the Main Lead destiny but there is less emotion since they focused to make this drama more light. ML's brother and aunt are insufferable yet funny character.

Recommended to watch if you are Ma Qian Qian fans.

What a decent advertisement!

I watched this because the duration is about 15 minutes and quite interest with Huang Jinzhou/ Xiao Tai acts. For Yang Peng Cheng, i always have 50:50 since his acting is kind of hit and miss for me.

The timing was too perfect for short focused minded and the first scene is obvious advertisement for sheet mask. Picking two names actor are quite nice idea for fans and they have kind of BL spark even it was not too obvious. They can make another season since the pair was quite interesting with refreshing plot like this.

I wont tell the plot that much and it was nice to seeing Xiaotai in his woman costume!

Recommended if you have short time to wait.

Another case of Male lead lacks of comedic skill and add the scumbag point

Zhao Caizi play the same character as her drama with Wen Yu. When the first drama problem is ML lack of comedic skill, in here the problem on this drama are more, ML also have same problem as Wen Yu but adds he was more scumbag and his character trait are unlikeable. The chemistry between Zhao Caixi and Li Hao is zero

On side note, I enjoyed the FL Sister in Law acting and her fashion are so lovely. I like the second couple story even they are not are shown. It was to make me sane from ML lack of character development.

If you are Zhao Caizi fans you better watch her same theme drama with Wen Yu instead.

Still Decent Hidden Identity drama

I watch this when i was on binge with Chai Huixin and Wang Bo acting for me are still watchable for actor.

The Plot is quite generic FL accidentally wake up on bed with ML aka her boss. She was his secretary and go to office before him. ML are questioning her work since woman are sleep with him. FL afraid she will get fired for sleeping with his boss. she is make lie to hide it was her who sleep with ML.

Too bad the writer spent more time having the leads deceive each other rather clearing it up midway so they can develop their relationship since they got potential chemistry.

Not so bad amnesia drama.

I watched this since i liked Deng Yanni acting and Li Shengjie as Male Lead are quite fine for his drama i had watched.

The plot is about FL realized her fiancé got affair with her best friend when he choose to save her best friend when they got accident and got amnesia. When FL wakes up, she mistook ML who was FL fiancé uncle as her lover.

The plot is generic on amnesia plot but i like how Male Lead is not steal the opportunity when FL claimed he was his lover. Instead he tell the truth first and asked the doctor about her partial amnesia affect her.

Female Lead was not damsel in distress, she is happy virus even after everyone near her betrayed her trust. I understand why ML was fall in love with her for the first time.

The chemistry between Deng Yanni and Li Shengjie are cute to watch.

Recommended to watch

Decent drama with bad styling.

I watched this version with 50:50 expectation since i was dissapointed with Jiang Shiqi version and eager to watch what Guo Yuxin and Liu Yuhang brings after their Mulise.

The Plot is actually almost same but Female Lead are more smarter in here. Male Lead character are not too charming, he was to basic despite his achievement. There is less couple screen but the chemistry is better than previous one.

I was distracted with Male Lead bad styling on the entire series and most of his clothes are crumpled and He supposed to works on military on period time.

You can watch if you run of idea what to watch.

Plotis actually nice but the couple chemistry are subpar.

I watched this since i want to watch Tian Tianyi and first time i review Xiao Wenyu in here (I watch his drama when he become reborn and i forgot the Female Lead name).

Plot is about FL mom and FL dad's mistress pregnant at the same time and FL dad asks fortune teller which child he should bring as Prince bride child. Fortune teller said FL dad's should bring FL mistress child into the palace and throw FL mom since he is loner star.

Actually i quite like how Female Lead want to break her stereotype as someone with bad luck and fight for her own freedom. Male Lead is not bad guy and he always like Female Lead since they met.

The plot weakens when the couple moment was there. Xiao Wenyu and Tian Tianyi chemistry is subpar, which is unfortunate.

Maybe you can watch if you are Tian Tianyi fans.

Decent but ML lack of comedic sense ruined it.

I watched this drama while i was searching for Wang Nan and Sun Qian Xun version. Actually this version was not too bad Zhao Caizi still got her comedic side even the ML family still got their banter while Wen Yu was too stiff for comedy drama even his conversation is make me boring felt like AI reading script. The chemistry between Zhao Caizi and Wen Yu are non-existent even as dynamic duo. Supporting cast are helping for making this comedy drama are not too tacky and helps this drama avoid the disaster.

The plot are usual happened on mind reading drama. So I won't explain too much. The ending was being too rushed and i don't thing they should end the drama like that.

Afterall, only deserve to watch only once.

Keep Watching it for the Baby

I quite watch it from long ago and actually i feel it more leans into Family and Mother-Daughter relationship. I still rewatch for seeing Baby Girl natural acting.

Actually the Female Lead characterization is helpless and plainly stupid. She know her husband had affair with maid know they are trying to kill you and you don't expect anything bad to happen. Ugh. Li Hao is playing good as scumbag.

This is the best baby movie for now, the baby was on point the face expression, the laughter, each scene have it on character and the family was nice to her.

Baby is the greatest point on this drama.

Never understand the scrutiny against FL characterization

I watch this when i am on Tian Tianyi festive and used to rewatch on YT but they already taken down the drama. I like Wang Bing Xiang style in here- he can pulled the weird looking glasses.

Plot is about FL and SML (ML's niece) was trying to get ML blessings but ML giving sarcastic remark to FL, FL defend herself and go out and got accident. When She woke up, FL was on bed in ML in the future.

I like how they digest the sudden transmigration into the future. ML was logical and fast to adapt since he is matured. Many people criticize FL characterization while i understand she never fights with SML but suddenly she is someone husband. She is still young with mind and quite immature

I like FL remarks on ML past doing and ML is slowly admitting his past mistake. And the chemistry is like Americano Coffee. Bitter yet still delicious.

Antagonist is kind of hypocrite and great manipulator. Feel she didn't get more retribution after what she did.

I wished they can get more know about children backstory even after the ending.

The ending is lovely. Recommended to rewatch
