Very underrated drama <3

This drama was one that I discovered randomly, and I am so glad that I did! The story of this drama is so well-done, and it's very fast-paced as well. I honestly loved the faster pacing of this drama, as I was never bored throughout any of it! I absolutely loved the romance between Jiang Xu and Ming Tan, it was just so so sweet!! I also loved how they portrayed the initial awkwardness between them early on in their marriage of convenience.

I thought it was so refreshing to know that they are technically still strangers, and that they need time to get to know each other and understand each other. I love that they naturally fall for each other, even if they're "married." I just love how Jiang Xu goes from being wary of her to being an absolute loser for his wife. He is so fiercely protective of her, and I love that he is also very loyal to her as well. The way that he protects her is just so:((( I also love that he is very quick to defend her as well (we love that <3)

The angst that occurred between them was heartbreaking, but I could also understand why Ming Tan felt the way she did, for Jiang Xu did keep her in the dark (even though he had a valid reason to do so). This drama definitely made me cry multiple times, especially when Ming Tan reunites with her father, whom she assumed was dead. The reconciliation between Jiang Xu and Ming Tan was beautiful as well, but what hit me hard the most was Ming Tan's reunion with her father. I also loved how close Ming Tan was with her cousin, Bai Min Min. Her cousin is super sassy and also very quick to defend Ming Tan when she is being insulted or anything else of the sort. I also loved that Min Min also got a happy ending of her own as well.

I absolutely LOVED the romantic scenes between Jiang Xu and Ming Tan in this, especially that scene in the carriage where Jiang Xu is very drunk and is being super clingy with her. It was so adorable! Another thing that I loved about this drama was that there was no unnecessary drama or petty misunderstandings. I also loved the chemistry between Bao Shangen and Song Weilong; I think that their chemistry was very natural and nothing felt forced. Another thing that I loved about this drama were the costumes! Ming Tan's robes were always so pretty, and I also love how they did her makeup and hair! Jiang Xu's robes were also really pretty and suited him well <3

And don't even get me started on the ending!!! The ending was literally so freaking beautiful, and I loved that they had children of their own <3 I also love that we got to see a little bit of their life after everything was over <3 It was so incredibly wholesome, and the last scene where they were all watching the fireworks with everyone was just so gorgeous :((( Overall, this drama is just so incredibly perfect from start to finish, and I cannot recommend it enough! It's definitely a must-watch <3
