Kindness & patience never felt this rewarding before
I remember the date I watched this drama. It was 2 February 2025, right after I finished watching GOT7 livestreamed concert. Anyway what drew me to this drama was the title & high view count. I enjoyed this drama even though the 'philandering prince of Beijing' title was misleading.What I liked:
1. ML's characterisation - I liked that he was not CEO but he was rugged, work-with-his-hands guy! He was intense at times but overall treated FL with respect. Cheng Yue was good and sweet in this role.
2. FL's characterisation - I am not a fan of meek FLs but she won me over with her sweet demeanor & character growth. I liked that she never took advantage of ML's kindness. She had just gotten out of a bad relationship & didn't go for rebound/one night stand. Hu Jia Ni did well in this role.
3. Romance - For once, I was glad that their romance developed slowly. Their love language was definitely act of service. Their height difference was big but adorable.
4. Supporting characters - The two mechanics were entertaining.
What I disliked:
1. Antagonist - I hate men who abused their power at workplace. FL's boss was despicable.
Favourite scene
When ML made a surprise visit to FL's hotel room

No messy drama, no cheating or toxic tropes—just two sweet, ordinary people slowly falling in love, and they’re genuinely adorable together.But I have to admit, the ML sometimes came off a little predatory and manipulative, giving me creepy vibes in certain moments.
Overall, though, it was still a good and enjoyable watch.
