a bit of good and bad

Overall it kind of dragged a bit much, Kehuan was in a loveless relationship due to the choicesZiyuan made in the past that led to their distance, and the FL she living on a budget that consumed her relationship all bc her bf thought saving would bring them to where they ended up being both rushed out of the FL starting to feel for another guy but she tried to control herself and she technically didn't sleep with the ML at all til like the last episode,
1-12 was more of a lead-up to what the intro kept teasing, thought there would be passion and desire and such but they just dragged the FL and ML to the end. Their acting was well worth watching if they worked together again.
-ZiYuan was just way too clingy throughout it all, she really couldn't get a happy ending and she was so obsessed to make the ML something he realized he didn't want to be, I felt bad for her story in all that but she held on to something that she lost herself in and even though it took for him to resign and really leave for her to snap out of it should have been the last thing but that woman just smh her story was just cringy and painful to see.
-Haoyi, I felt bad for him but the FL did try to keep a distance from the ML, he was also kinda just hard to watch at times when he was playing clueless and so wrapped up in Shanghai with his female boss, their relationship felt so downhill when he proposed. Also, the FL was to blame too as she said yes knowing that the ML was there just so she can forget the steamy kiss they shared in the heat of the moment which was steamy.
-Ke Fei the BFF she was really worth watching too loved her fierceness towards ppl who went at Wei Wei she stood tall and gurl can talk. I think she got alot of interesting lines and to be in the middle of the drama her BFF was tangled up in with both men gurl held it together.
-Wei Wei and Kehuan story was sad and bittersweet when all Kehuan wanted was to be with her and she was tugged towards her so-called life plan with her fiance which turned into a bomb but Kehuan was always there for her even if he was distancing herself from him, they had their smexy time and captured that pretty well. Jasper and Puff Kao have great chem and obviously worked together before and reunited so it was good watch and Wei Wei was a strong woman who had so much to deal with, she seemed to have a mid-life crisis happening towards the end and sometimes a reset helps get away from everything that just seemed to much but come back with a clean slate, break the ties that bind when it comes to finding oneself and she did that at the end and Kehuan also realized he was living a life he got tired of bc of ZiYuan he finally also opened his eyes to the problems he had locked himself up in. Glad they moved on but sad that they left it at that in the end with the wedding and no more......
-The bad thing story was the drag that was done to make us watch as it was expected something hot and steamy would come out but to hold it to the very end was so lame and to rush the last ep that way was pooooops it deserved more eps unless they had to cut back bc it felt like there was more but 13 eps seem to small for a story like that.
