Too too long with few going on

The story is ok.


STORY - A tough, interesting woman struggling in a male society with the help of a caring and loving companion. He starts as her assistant and become in love with her and her support.
In between, the age gap problem, the conservative mother, a sort of love triangles, backstabbing attempts,etc.
There are also other 2 couples, both not so interesting, especially Qi Xiao roommate.
This is an interesting portrait of some of society problems, maybe is modern China also.

CAST - Most done a good job, particularly the main couple.

MUSIC - do not remember any song, so it was not interesting for me.

REWATCH - I will never rewatch mainly because of 2 things: the unnecessary length and the lack of awesome and memorable moments. Although I enjoyed watching

OVERALL - It was ok. The subject of electric cars and some of the issues like charging were interesting. The main couple was nice to see. The stories around the drum girl, motherhood, dependency, etc was ok. Even the fashion and design was not bad. But most of the themes were treated shallowly.

ENDING - I never understood the way these dramas are shot! During all the series we are conducted by the director, as if we were stupid to not understand the feelings or who or what the characters were thinking. And then, they deliver short endings, sometimes open endings or without the closure that I, at least, would like to see...
