Roller coaster ride but the story made sense to me. There were moments it felt unrealistic to have two alphas practically destroying their careers for a woman, that's why I rated the plot as 8, but I'm willing to make concessions bec this is a drama. I get it, some exaggerations may be called for to get emotions across.

But overall, I like how the characters stayed consistent to their "character" despite going thru several subplots of office conflicts.

*spoilers ahead*
WeiWei was someone who takes time before making decisions, but once she does she sticks to it. No going back. And she stayed that way til the very end

Haoyi was always a selfish person, even during their most loving moments. He only ever saw his dreams, his plans. And even during the breakup, he only saw his pain. To some viewers I guess it looked his a convenient excuse for the plot development, but I disagree bec I know there really are people who are like this.

And Kehuan, persistent and goal oriented in life, I understand how it would nsturally translate to his love life. It was more unnatural to me actually that he stuck to a dead relationship for a long time. I would have thought with his personality he would be one to move on swiftly and "cut losses".

I also like how WeiWei gave herself - and Kehuan too - time to heal and move on and grow before getting in a new relationship, despite acknowledging their mutual attraction.

****end of spoilers****

Loved this drama and am planning to rewatch soon. There are many lessons here, especially for those in long term relationships to not take your partner for granted and to listen closely to whatever they tell you. Maybe they are already telling you they are unhappy but you just don't hear it.
