This was so ROMANTIC!
This drama as well fed my romance starved soul!! The mainleads looked absolutely beautiful together and the plot was a fun one. Reminds me of a Harlequin Romance i read by Anne Mather where the heroine seduced the hero to impregnant herself, but in this case the hero turned out to be her Boss. I love love love Male Lead in this drama, he has such a heart of gold despite also having that darker edge to him and he became knee weak when it came to his heroine,LOL. I absolutely found the Female Lead stunning as well, hilarious, cute and classy. She let no one step over her, no wonder ML fell head over heels! I also love the way he tried to catch her heart as well and showed her true love. Its such a beautiful love-story!Was this review helpful to you?

Chen Si shines in this baby mama drama
I watched this series because I was impressed by Han Jia Hui's acting in her drama with Ke Chun about quadruplet kids.What I liked:
1. Zhuang Jing Chen characterisation - Chen Si excelled in his role as an expecting daddy wooing his baby mama. Jing Chen was genuine, patient, sweet with FL and most importantly he was firm with SFL about their relationship and the boundaries. This is the first vertical drama that I've seen in which ML explicitly & repeatedly told SFL that he was not interested in her at all. I like that he had FL's back right from the start of knowing her relatives' bad attitude.
2. Zheng Ling Xi characterisation - I understand her apprehension about ML's pursuit of her. I like that she's smart, funny & self-reliant. Han Jia Hui was great in her role plus she was so beautiful in this drama.
3. Romance - There was more push in the dynamics between ML & FL so kisses weren't many. However I enjoyed watching ML pursuing FL because he really wanted a serious relationship with her. I was awed & amazed by the one-arm carry - Chen Si was strong. That seduction scene at the start was 🔥.
4. Supporting characters - I love FL's bestie & ML family members.
5. Tone - There were many comedic & light moments courtesy of FL & ML. Chen Si can do comedy! I watch this drama on repeat since I first watched in mid-December 2024.
What I disliked:
1. SFL - She was possessive & disrespectful.
2. Styling - Chen Si's hairstyle was bad which reminded me of Edward Scissorshand's hairstyle.
Favourite scene
FL ate sour plum when hanging out with colleagues & ML followed suit. His reaction...priceless!
