Wang Hedi look great. Bai Lu was so pretty
It was becoz of these two I binge watch for 3 days and almost got headache. Eventhough there are a few illogical moment between ML and FL, this series really make me swoon and felt giddy² inside. And also let just not start discussing about all then hot scenes... #OmyheartWink*Truely amaze how the other couples made me rooting for them and want them to have a happy closure too. And just For that, this series deserve overall 8 star from me.
The house was a full studio set. How can that be? It so artistic and realistic. I bet the office is a studio set too. No wonder the lighting was spot on in every angle.
Am I going to watch the full series again? No
Am I going to just watch click bait /tt video scene of Shu Yi and Shi Yan? Oh definitly . You bet on in..

Misunderstanding of 2023
Looking at such a good and talented cast really mislead a person to watch it.......but the storyline (no comment)Bai Lu and Dylan Wang did performed their respective roles but what is a description of the role.......the same old overbearing CEO,who, for God's sake or for what reason fall for the female lead and is so forgiving......like is he for real. The proactive female lead who is workaholic and seductive. I don't have any problem in these kind of roles as they are cute sometime......but the storyline made my soul left the body
Then still thought the supporting cast will be my last resort.........but never mind.
The only thing which is high throughout the show is the VISUAL SCALE or maybe the plot of uncle and niece+misunderstanding
Hope you find this review helpful for your drama journey

The best cdrama I've watched so far
Why is it 7.9? It needed to be 8.5 at least. The drama is so interesting and the main leads' chemistry is on another level. I've watched all at of dramas with the CEO tropes, but trust me this one is different, It will hook you up from the first episode* ⠀⠀⠀. . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀✦⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀☄️ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀. . ﾟ . . ✦ , .

Love as a Catalyst for Change: A Heartwarming Journey of Healing and Transformation
In this series, every episode had my heart melting a little more. From the captivating soundtrack to the brilliant performances by Bai Lu and Dylan Wang, I was completely hooked. Their portrayal of a love-struck couple was both authentic and compelling, bringing their characters’ vulnerabilities and chemistry to life.The drama beautifully explores how love can become a catalyst for personal growth and transformation. Through the journey of Zheng Shu Yi and Shi Yan, the storyline dives into the realistic struggles faced by young professionals who are trying to balance their careers with the demands of a meaningful relationship. Despite misunderstandings and the ups and downs of embracing one another’s differences, the lead couple learns to find strength in their vulnerabilities, ultimately creating a love that’s both heartwarming and profound.
The series also shines in its depiction of how healing and forgiveness can be powerful enough to break through the barriers a couple might face. It shows the beauty of opposites attracting—where each partner’s strengths uplift the other, bringing balance and harmony. The entire cast was perfectly chosen, and each character felt relatable, adding depth to the story. I found myself falling deeply in love with this drama, and it has definitely earned a spot as my new favorite!

TÍTULO ENGANOSO - DRAMA RUIM, NÃO ASSISTA
Gostei dos primeiros episódios e de sua história, mas foi só isso.O C-drama TEM MUITOS mal-entendidos, mentiras e muita interrupção telefônica. Isso fez com que a parte interessante do C-drama fosse totalmente apagada e anulada.
É o C-drama com mais mal-entendidos que já assisti, ficou irritante a história.
Tudo isso sem contar com uma FL idiota e infantil. Ela teve várias oportunidades melhorar e consertar seu relacionamento com o ML, mas sempre estragou a oportunidade com sua idiotice. Mesmo a amiga indicando onde ele errou, ela sempre cometia os mesmo erros, indicando que a história é mal escrita, feita para dar mais emoção e esticar o número de episódios. Daria para ser apenas 24 episódios, no máximo.
Foi frustrante e irritante assistir as idiotices da FL e os mal-entendidos
Não indico para ninguém e não assistia novamente, nunca.

There’s no saving a bad script
This was torture. WTF with the “misunderstanding” lasting virtually the whole series? It’s tiring to watch stupidity last all episodes. Trudged through it for the actors but… what a disappointment and wasted potential. The script was just too weak and flimsy and flawed. So much so that even the lead’s star power can’t save this drama. Enjoyed the second leads more than the main leads.This was torture.

So worth the watch!!!!!
I personally loved this drama soooo much! The chemistry was amazing and the acting was on point! Really loved the second couple with Yu Yuo and Shi Yan’s niece, they were so cute I really wanted to see more of them! The only problem I had with the show was all of their missunderstandings like please learn how to communicate with each other! I also did not really like the best friend of Shu Yi, she was really beautiful and I understand that it can be hard to trust someone but the advices she gave to Shu Yo was not it! And the way she treated her soon to be boyfriend throughout like half of the show was not something that I liked to see. Other than that I really enjoyed it and I will definitely rewatch it!Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Frustrating and boring (very little spoilers ahead to make a point)
To be honest, I found this drama to be mild. It's main problem is the script, trying to find problems where there are none and taking way too long for things to happen. I don't mind a long burn but when absolutely nothing happens on a personal level and, most of the time, the characters are in corporate meetings talking about chips, it's a bore.On the other hand, there are very real problems, with lots of potential, that take the entire drama to be resolved and it's done badly. Example: leading lady has to constantly deal with a nasty and jealous co-worker who slanders her and even physically hurts her at one point. When the boss can no longer avoid the issue, leading lady's personal life is brought up and questioned. Excuse me? Her relationship it's nobody's business and furthermore why are y'all weaponizing it against her when it hasn't affected her work or the work place in the fist place? Seems to me you are all dealing with a terrible case of sexism among women and a change of attitude would have been nice. But, no, nasty co-worker doesn't even get fired. She's transferred and choses to quit altogether as if she was trying to save some face. Bitch, please. This particular storyline was frustrating.
There are other two couples, apart from the leads, that we spent a good amount of time following, only for them to completely disappear from once they respectively find happiness. No follow up, nothing, until the last scene of the drama.
The one saving grace is the cast, which is flawless in the respective roles they were given and had good chemistry (at times).
It honestly seems like a waste of a good cast on a mediocre story. A shame.

A Must watch series for Dylan Wang & Bai Lu fans
Romantic series with Dylan Wang (very cold, rational, young investor CEO) & Bai Lu (economics journalist). These 2 attract each other, turn around and play cat and mouse until episode 20.2 other 2dary couples: CL2 = CEO investor / video journalist (both players who do not want to give up their style life) & CL3 = college teacher/trainee.
PROS:
+ Bai Lu and Dylan Wang are a great CL, with intense interactions and chemistry. They carry the whole series on their shoulders.
+ All the cast did a good job, with complex characters, who are well developed.
+ Excellent OSTs (even Irish music :)
+ The pace is fast, dynamic, without length.
+ The framing, settings, costumes,... are well suited to the story.
CONS:
I'm not convinced by some characters:
- FL2 is totally stupid on an emotional level. She thinks she's a love expert, because she dates around, but she thinks like an imbecile. A lot of CL's problems stem from her disastrous advice... The kind of friend to avoid like the plague! In each situation, she guides the FL towards the worst possible path. Is this the deliberate will of the screenwriter/director???
- the very very immature FL3.
- the character of Cheng Kang is not even credible: he is indecisive, hesitant, without self-confidence. How could such a character create his own business?
=> A lovely romantic series with a CL that I would like to see again together on screen soon.
**************************************************************************************************************
Série romantique avec Dylan Wang (jeune CEO investisseur très froid) & Bai Lu (journaliste économique). Ces 2 s'attirent, se tournent autour et jouent au chat et à la souris jusqu'à l'épisode 20. 2 autres couples 2aires : CL2 = CEO investisseur / journaliste vidéo (tous les 2 players qi ne veulent pas renoncer à leur style de vie) & CL3 = prof de fac/stagiaire.
PROS:
+ Bai Lu and Dylan Wang are a great CL, with intense interactions and chemistry. They carry the whole series on their shoulders.
+ All the cast did a good job, with complex characters, well developped.
+ Excellent OSTs (even Irish music :)
+ The pace is fast, dynamic, without lenght.
+ The framed, settings, costumes,... are well suited to the story.
CONS:
Je ne suis pas convaincue par certains personnages :
- La FL2 est totalement idiote au niveau émotionnel. Elle se croit une experte en amour, parce qu'elle papillonne, mais elle raisonne comme une imbécile. Une bonne partie des problèmes du CL découle de ses conseils désastreux... Le genre d'amie à fuir comme la peste ! A chaque situation, elle guide vers la pire voie possible. Est-ce la volonté délibérée du screenwriter/réalisateur ???
- la FL3 très très immature.
- le personnage de Cheng Kang n'est pas crédible : il est indécis, hésitant, sans confiance en lui. Comment un tel personnage a-t-il pu créer son entreprise ?
=> Une jolie série romantique avec un CL que j'aimerai revoir together on screen soon.

Dylan Wang is just soooooo swoony!
If for no other reason, everyone should watch this so that they can swoon over Dylan Wang every second he is on screen. OMG I just love love love love him so much. But there are other good reasons too.I actually really enjoyed this show, I don't get why it gets so much hate. Yes, there is a lot of business talk (you can just skip) and some plotlines or characters personality traits and decisions are questionable, but that's part of the show's charm. I loved the three couples, I loved the friendship and family relationships, it was refreshing to see a rich family be so close-knit and so welcoming of the love interests of their young members, instead of the usual shananigans.
Above all, i really really really loved how much Shi Yan was devoted to his woman, he is exactly everything I love about a ML.
I also like FL a lot, she was intelligent, hard-working, had good core values. She could be a little spoiled, she definetly could have been more honest, but it all adds to that characters' arch.
The only character i didn't really care much for was the magazine boss who was very indecisive towards her boyfriend, but even that i can sort of get.
The OST was nice, the kiss scenes were crazy hot, I could rewatch those a thousand times. Andddd... bonus... horses! If there are scenes with horses, it's perfect because it's my favourite animal.

Takes the cold executive trope too far for too long
8.5/10 is my rating.This is a 2023 Chinese romantic drama with 36, 45 minute episodes.First I provide a unique synopsis then review.
Synopsis
As a reporter Zheng Shu Yi (Bai Lui) has a specialized and unique writing angle as a writer for a financial news publication. She is highly capable and career driven and her goal is to get enough headline articles that she can pursue digital platforming the publications to pull her magazine into the modern era. When the opportunity arises to land an exclusive with a young CEO who is rising in the financial investment world, it is the perfect chance to get a headline. Everyone is curious to know more about the cold but exceptional Shi-Yan (Dylan Wang). In fact Shu Yi’s arch rival, who is equally ambitious, is so determined to land the interview she even cheats in an attempt to get the exclusive. But Shi-Yan was more intrigued by Shu-Yi’s outline than her rivals so she still lands the interview. Once in his realm, Shu Yi decides she likes the handsome Shi Yan for more than just an interview subject, Can the determined journalist melt the heart of the cold young CEO?
Review
If you like the cold chief executive officer (CEO) trope then this is definitely a solid addition to that category. Overall I liked it. I recommend it for anyone that is fans of either lead or supporting actors as they all act their roles very well. If you like cold executives, romance and/or want a slice of the financial reporting or technological investment realms, you would find this interesting. There were some aspects that were not really interesting to me and some frustrating slow spots. It is not one I would rewatch in the immediate future, with so many choices available. I found the length of time he was “cold” and the parts about financial investments, tedious.
Spoilers
I think they take the cold executive trope a bit too far in this one. He is not just cold to her but I think his behavior borders on abusive. When she is trying to connect with him, if she doesn’t say exactly what he wants her to say, when and how he wants her to say it, he walks away or kicks her out. He says he does not like to talk business on his personal time and will shut her down even if she is doing it as a common interest to carry the conversation. And that would be one thing, but he seems to break the “do not mix business and personal” any time he feels like it. He doesn’t even say what she did that he didn’t like, he just shuts her out emotionally and often literally. His friends and family even find him difficult to deal with.
Usually by three fourths of the way through the series, the ice cube CEO has thawed and is now all warm and fuzzy, at least to the main girl. In his case, other than the briefest thaw before getting break up mad at her, he remained cold until the last few episodes. Which, to me, was entirely too long.
Okay so she approached him originally to get the story. So what? She is a reporter it is what she does. But she was using him to get back at the cheaters? I felt like they decided to twist it that way later because that was not a motivation she revealed in any of her abundant internal dialogues early on. But still, he should not have been so hung up on why she approached him originally, but where they went from there. I thought the level of cold shoulder she got from that was over the top. Then several commented later that he let her off easy. She was so heart broken she landed in the hospital multiple times, that is not letting anyone off easy. And I dd nit think she did anything so horrible to him to deserve his cold shoulder, yet again, anyway. Supposedly he still loved her but had no problem seeing how he was completely devastating her emotionally.
The second guy in this I thought was her perfect match. He noticed when she was sad and did everything to cheer her up. He let her talk work whenever, and even helped her find new opportunities. Through his actions and words he indicated how wonderful he thought she was. He was smart, handsome, successful and extremely kind to the main girl. She was happy and laughed a lot when she was with 2nd guy, so of course she liked the absolute opposite guy. I was disappointed he did not at least get someone else wonderful.
Other reviewers said her best friend gave her terrible advice and, early on, I disagreed. She gave great advice on how to catch his interest. But I found they were right later when she was advising on how to save her relationship. Continue to lie and deceive him until he is so in love with you he easily forgives? Main girl should have known better. In the book on being petty and holding a grudge (pretending such thing exists) there would be a picture of him. They never explained what made him so he assumed the worst in relationships but that definitely characterizes his reactions. Deceiving him was absolutely the worst thing with him and anyone that knew him well would know that. So the friend’s advice was so far from right with him. It was frustrating she kept following the friend’s advice and kept hiding things. Main girl should have known him well enough by then to know he would not forgive being deceived easily.
I found all of the “business talk” boring. Financial investment in technological companies just was not that intriguing. Reporting was more interesting but all the investment speak was a yawn fest. And it just made the main guy look less capable.
The side couples’ romances were all super heart warming and they spent just the right amount of time on them. I thought the triple wedding idea was great.
I know people love when the couples spend seconds to minutes just gazing at each other but it is not my favorite. I have never seen anyone do that in real life.

Great acting and chemistry
I recommend giving this drama a chance despite its flaws. I gave it a nine because yes it's not perfect, but I had a really nice time watching it.The chemistry between the lead was really amazing and left me hoping for more collabs between Wang Hedi and Bai Lu! The characters and couples were really cute. (Except maybe the couple formed by the best friend and the cousin, they didn't do anything for me, they were quite meh...)
If you're looking for a fast paced narrative, this is not for you as some subplots get dragged sometimes, I'm not sure I like the way this was directed 100% but the actors make it worth it cause they're real good. And apart from amazing chemistry they're also quite funny. Also, it's really worth watching if you're looking for fluff and sparkles ! You just have to make it past the (ok I admit - kinda boring) angsty bit in the middle and then you good !
