Overrated drama with incredulous plot and poor character writing that worths dropping.

I started watching this drama because of Wei Zhe Ming, but couldn't find a single upside, thus i ended up dropping it.

***In terms of characters, both leads are and intolerable in their own ways and inconsistently written.

- ML is a thankless ungentlemanly insensitive robotic control freak who doesn't care about FL's happiness. I truly feel sorry for FL for getting entangled with him. I don't find it romantic when FL is forced to do something against her will and has her freedom to pursue her hobby, career, diet, lifestyle, and other things restricted or judged by ML. It feels as if she was imprisoned in ML's house, and he doesn't feel a shred of guilt or has no qualm watching her being unhappy. He doesn't even want to take care of her when she was crippled. Her entire career, reputation, and freedom was upended because of him. Yet this insensitive ignorant guy doesn't even notice, and only knew that because his friend told him. Once he knew, he doesn't even show concern over it. He doesn't care about her freedom and privacy. He doesn't know emotional support is needed for a child's development, and doesn't allow his kid to attend the school FL chose, which is very beneficial for the kid's growth, because of his stupid jealousy (which baffles the hell out of me because of the inconsistencies in his character. He's a calculating and rational person who would take into account the pros and cons of everything before taking action, now he suddenly turns dumb and doesn't even realize it). On top of it, he prevented FL from spending quality time with the kid. He doubts and criticises FL's decisions and professional opinions. He threw a wet blanket on every joy of life. I don't think this tyrant deserves FL right now. Really hope his nasty personality could improve later on, cuz right now i don't think there's any romance.

- As for FL, i decided to drop when FL started to act jealous and nosy. She's a psychologist who understands how emotions work and how to control them, yet she easily manifest her jealousy in such an obvious manner, without even trying to hide it. She started working for ML for professional reason, how could she easily forget it and mix her work with feelings? It made me feel like she became self-entitled and even clingy and immature after just a little bond time with ML, as opposed to her previous mature demeanours. Their relationship has not grown to the friendship level yet, and there's not enough trust or bond between them, yet the FL abruptly got jealous out of nowhere, thereby making the romance unnatural and forced, as a result of a rushed plot development and poor character writing. Feels like the playwright just skipped a few stages.

***Another thing that puts me off is FL's stiff and unnatural way of acting. I like her in the first few episodes because she seems to be a strong and independent female character, but then her expressions kept getting recycled, and she has that same grin for several different emotions, whether she's being embarrassed or happy or gentle or awkward or angry and whatnot. But for the clunky dialogues, i wouldn't know she fell in love, more like she's reciting lines instead of acting, cause i don't see any chemistry. So many thick-skinned, unrealistic, one-dimensional characters as well.

***Plot-wise, it's so tacky i cringe, especially with with the monologue and overhearing tropes. Idk what went on in the playwright's head, probably they ran out of ideas. Btw why turn this into a musical?? I don't mind tropes or clichés, but they need to be executed properly, which they weren't and turned out to be so cringey and tacky.

By and large, the drama started off pretty promising but then went downhill with all the corny scenes, cringey unnatural romance, and unrealistic behaviours stemming from jealousy, which i felt so uncomfortable watching. What a shame i have of drop this. *sigh*

EXTREMELY cliche.

Currently at ep 16. Tbh before ep 16 I thought I can stand with all those typical cliche scenes and plot cause yeah it’s kinda cute and heart throbbing ( both FL and ML acted great) but dude the last scene of ep 15 is just so disappointing. Like it’s too much of those cliche plot where I actually rolled my eyes when i watch it. It’s just arghhh! For me it’s really such a waste of talent for the FL and ML cause they really have great chemistry together.

I thought of dropping this drama but I already watch it till ep 16 so yeah I’ll just continue it for the sake of finding a closure and forget about this drama.

Head over hill

Mommy daddy and xiaobao is a great combination. I really loved this plot. Miles wei again made a contract relation. But even if it’s kind of similar with perfect and casual it’s just too good in another level. Plot can be same in some way. It doesn’t matter actually. Their chemistry become more lively because of xiaobao. All over it’s good. As for me, if he ask me to be his wife I'll say okay you are my husband now. Your baby is my baby. Let's not think about things😁😁 Miles wei is one of my super favorite when I first watch "My amazing boyfriend 2"

I truely dislike one of the male characters (not the main lead), heres why.

This won't make total sense since it's late and I'm angry typing but...I hate Mr. He's best friend (Yeah I don't remember his name 'cause I don't like him enough to care). He has such an outdated way of thinking. I've watched up to episode nine for now but this character... geese. Here is something he said, "When a girl says no she means yes"? Seriously? That's a disgusting way of thinking buuuutttt I'm not surprised coming from a character that seemed to like harassing (not necessarily the perfect word to use but you'll get it if you watch the show) women almost every day. I would have dropped this drama solely because of his character but I'm watching because of the Main male lead Mr. He (as well as the relationship development between Yiyue, the kid, and him). If I was Yiyue's best friend I would have filed a lawsuit against him for office harassment already. I mean the novel, I believe it's based on CEO's Sudden Proposal right?, well that novel came out around a year or so ago and I've read a bit of it but I didn't know it had such a vile character and outdated mindset (If it didn't then okay but this character in the drama still sucks)?? I'm truly disappointed that an unprogressive character like him still exists in many stories, especially those that are meant to contain romance (are we trying to show how not giving consent is okay or something? ew.) I pray to god, even if I don't worship one, that Mr. He's best friend has major character growth and doesn't continue to have this misogynistic mindset in the oncoming episodes. The main characters (the female, male, and the Lil kid) are currently carrying this drama and balancing out this disgusting male character, making this drama... good enough.

Kinda slow?? Still cute

I absolutely loved this drama and like I don’t usually even watch these type of dramas so I was surprised at how much I liked it and like it was adorable specially Xiaoboa like pls he is the cutest thing ever specially when he says mommy and then his little pout I almost cried bcs of how cute he is. But the only thing I didn’t like was that this whole drama could have been much faster/shorter/smaller like some eps were a bit unnecessary but not that I didn’t enjoy them it’s just that maybe it was made for people who like long dramas but I personally just thought that the drama processed a bit slow other then that I loved the relationships both of them. And like I was happy with it. Both the ships were adorable and I just loved the whole plot like it kinda have like “CEO and Poor Girl” vibes but the girl was definitely not like it, like she was so badass type yet adorable, she would like fight for others and was definitely not poor. And then the part where like we realise everything about Xiaobao and like his past I felt genuinely bad for him cause like imagine being 5 and having to deal with so much trauma at 5 year old I would be crying because I didn’t like my clothes or smth idk but he’s reading Einstein’s books huhhh? Well anyway he’s a smart ass kid and I do not mind that at all. It did annoy me a bit in the starting when Mr. He or whatever didn’t listen to the girl properly but ig that was how it was meant to start and I haven’t even finished it yet so let’s see if I edit this after finishing it.

Light-hearted sweet romance drama

This is Light-hearted sweet romance drama.
I like child actor who is so cute and sweet.

main actor miles Wei is always good looking and extremely handsome with glasses and formal outfits / long coats. That is main reason of watching this drama.
Main leads are really good in chemistry. The actor miles Wei is always good in acting, especially his eyes’ expressions are always perfect. His eyes look are kind and Humble but he can act really well in different rich boss characters (for example: hello I’m at service and this drama). Although both characters are rich boss, there are different personalities in each character.

Overall, it is quite enjoyable and sweet romantic drama.

This is a nice “becoming a family” kind of drama to watch while waiting for a great one. The leading couple has very good intimate chemistry but their romance is very slow to become and the leading lady, who started as very smart and savvy, could be too childish and intolerable at times, although her character turned around on the last episodes was right on spot. The drama took too long for the leading couple to realize their true feelings for each other and the end was rushed but, overall, the drama is entertaining.

So cutee

The whole drama, especially the end is so cuteee, I highly recommend, I watched it without getting bored for a second or skipping any part. There is no cringe-worthy scenes or story. He Qiao Yan and Qin Yiyue's story is actually deeper than I though it would be. And I am not even talking about Xiaobao aka the cutest kid I have ever seen in dramas, I want to squeeze his cheeks so badly! Also to note, second couple Ruo Wei and Wen Gu are as fun to watch as the main couple and I never skipped their part lol

Good start, weak end

The show starts of great, with a fairly good plot, decent leads and by and large the best asian child actor/role I have seen so far.
It goes on for a whiel with the usual woes of arranged marriage and family building and such, and it works pretty well. HGer psychology role could have been shown better and to a larger extend, but it's mroe of a 'wonder why they don't show more about that' when watching instead of a 'it's bad that they don't show more' thing.

The prolem comes near the end, when their slow burn romance finaly blossoms and theyg et together after ltierally 3/4 of the show is already over, and then they break up again after less than an episode.
And the problem is not only that, romance tkaing a backseat worked decently wel lfor the first 3 quarters. The problem is on why they break up, with the usualy brain numbingly stupid amnesia and arrnaged marriage cliches, plus the classic 'I can't tell oyu anythign abotu it, but doing that for your own good' bullcrap.
And to make matters even worse, one of exactly 2 things the FL actually does in psychology in the whole show up to then, and was also shown to take great commitments and risks to push it through, was to face problems and get help for psychological issues instead of ignoring them.
Instead the FL doesn't communicate with the ML, and breaks up during an already very difficult time ofthe ML's life, all in the slim hope that he wouldn't need to face his past trauma. Instead of, you know, help him work through it, like she literally risked her job and physical injury before to get the mother of a random patient of hers to get help for her condition.

And it's not just a short situation either, it goes on for multiple episodes. Overall it made me really disgusted with the FL, and hoenstly wished the ML would find osmeone better who doesn't intentionaly hurt him in multipel ways whiel intentionaly working against one of the few thigns she was shown to know and care abotu for her profession as frigging DOCTOR OF PSYCHOLOGY.
