Qiao Xing Ye is an orphan who was raised by a mysterious boss. After she grew up, she found her parents by chance and got engaged to Qi Yan. Her parents doted on the fake daughter, who was sick and made things difficult for her. Qi Yan coaxed the fake daughter and postponed the wedding. Qiao Xing Ye tore up her wedding dress in anger and refused to get married! Her parents and Qi Yan stopped Qiao Xing Ye's card and forced her to admit her mistake, but they didn't know that the boss behind her was not an important partner of her parents and the Qi family.

I watched “Miss Qiao’s Top White Moonlight” version of this story first, and I genuinely liked it — mainly because of the romance build-up between the characters. When I found out there were other versions, I decided to give this one a try, especially because the storyline was familiar and Megna, one of my favorite short vertical drama actresses, was part of it. I honestly thought, what could go wrong with a familiar story and a favorite actress?

Well… I was very wrong.

This version completely ruined the slow-burn romance that made the story appealing in the first place. The emotional pacing felt off, and instead of letting feelings develop naturally, the drama made choices that were uncomfortable rather than romantic.

One particular aspect that really put me off was the portrayal of the uncle character. He is neither blood-related nor in any romantic commitment with the FL, yet repeatedly pulling her onto his lap and engaging in overly physical behavior felt unnecessary and disturbing. It didn’t come across as affectionate or protective — it was simply uncomfortable to watch. Honestly, I don’t think even a real-life father would behave this way with his grown daughter, let alone an uncle.

On top of that, the FL’s styling, especially her haircut, was extremely distracting — easily one of the worst I’ve seen, and it did her no favors.

Overall, this adaptation failed to capture what made the story special: emotional restraint, slow-burn tension, and respectful relationship dynamics. Compared to the “Miss Qiao’s Top White Moonlight” version, this one felt rushed, poorly executed, and tonally confusing. A disappointing watch, especially when the source material had so much potential.
