If you're looking for a rom-com that is fun and cute, without annoying second leads and misunderstandings, then I absolutely recommend this. Watching this made me laugh out loud many times and never stressed me out, although I did feel a bit bored in the middle.

Shen Yue is really charming as Nan Xing; she manages to make some cringey moments funny instead of unbearable to watch. The drama's premise is that Xiao Wu Di is a character that Nan Xing created who comes to life, and I loved the way that this drama resolves this in the last 3-4 episodes. I felt so moved by the back story, and the way that Nan Xing's trauma and guilt were addressed. It really exceeded my expectations. I also appreciated that Nan Xing doesn't have a crush on her boss, a writer who she's a big fan of. As for Chen Zhe Yuan, he was fine here but I didn't find him particularly memorable. (I loved his previous drama Our Secret though.)

The reason for my lower rating is that I found myself bored in the middle of the drama and had to force myself to continue. Obviously, I'm glad I did because I loved those episodes at the end. Part of my boredom was due to the second leads' relationship feeling very lukewarm, and Lu Zi Chen taking too long to get his act together. Him asking Nan Xing for help was supposed to be funny but it just made me feel like he was way too immature. I loved Ye Qing though! So intelligent and graceful.
