basically, I like melodramas that make me cry, and so far it has done its job of making me cry. But same with the other reviews, one of the disappointing things is why they had to kill of Zhang Yun Long/Zhen Rong (one of my celebrity crushes, btw), who's supposed to be one of the main casts but had died at I think it was ep.7 (I literally bawled at his death, omg). I know that has been the plot of the drama ever since, but just feels surreal that it happened too fast.
Then, I really couldn't point out when exactly YuZheng fell in love, maybe it was at the bar when she cried and threw up in his car, but it just happened suddenly again. And also, I expected them to be a little apologetic towards Zhen Rong that they fell for each other, since it's kinda against "Bro Code" even if he's dead. But no mention of Zhen Rong after they had gotten together... which I felt weird about. I know it's not bad to fall in love, but I was just looking for that hesitation to be more emotional, hehe. Also felt weird that Zhen Rong was kinda easily replaced by Shang Guan as his best friend.
At the start, I was hoping she won't fall hard for Shawn, but with his efforts, I also fell for Shawn's character. It made me think deeply, who was the better boyfriend between Zhen Rong and YuZheng. Zhen Rong really made me flutter during the less than 10 episodes he was on.
Story was all good until they had issues with their "busy schedules", which I didn't buy. To think that they've crossed all odds together, then they won't have time for each other with his business revenge plot and her fear/insecurity of being in a higher social class, it was just too unjustified issue to cause misunderstandings. But they overcame it, so I'm fine with that.
But one thing I really liked about this story is that I don't recall any character of being a total bad person. If correct, all antagonists in the story all were given chances to lead better lives, so I felt good about that.
