Could have written more mature characters.
Peng Xiao Ran is lovely as always but this story could have done with a better ML and the FL to have better people around her. The ML and his gang are arrogant pricks, her maid is an annoying tw*t, her cousin and her lover nag all the time. I can get through with one or 2 annoying people but when most of the so called protagonists are irritating as hell then watching it becomes a chore. She basically left all the good people in her hometown. Her sister is at least a sane and realistic woman. Her ex husband plays the anti-hero to the hilt and has more nuance and character growth than the stale and annoying ML. Her cousin she had a sham married with is far more likeable than the ML. I don't understand why they made Ning Gongzi look like a dead end from the start. I wonder what drove the writer to consider the ML as the unquestionable choice when there is literally zero chemistry between the two and their back story is a big yawner in the first place. A totally pointless pairing.
