Female CEO trying to get pregnant after leaving scumbag hubby

The moment I saw the title of this drama on YouTube ("female CEO borrows sperm pregnant, not know baby’s dad is a business mogul who's secretly loved her"), I was drawn. I am familiar to the works of Lu Lu Lu and Wang Nan - I think they did well for this drama.

What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - I like that a smart & assertive FL who also happens to be a CEO. Ex hubby was clingy and annoying and I think she handled him well. Oh I also liked that FL got a suitor other than ML & her ex husband.
2. Romance - I like how the relationship grew from sex buddy/sperm donor to a serious, committed relationship. There were many tender moments in the drama. It's also good to see how ML becoming more involved with FL's professional life.
3. Acting - Good acting by Lu Lu Lu, Wang Nan and LI Guanlin, who played Chu Ming the ex-hubby. Great chemistry between Lu Lu Lu and Wang Nan.

What I disliked:
1. Antagonist - FL's ex hubby was mean towards FL. He deserved the divorce but unfortunately he couldn't let go of her even though he knew he made a big mistake in their marriage. His harassment bothered me.

Favourite scene
When ML told off his nephew and claimed FL as his girlfriend

Assertive alpha female X Manipulative green tea male

I was trying to remember other version of Wang Nan- Lu Lulu drama and it was Shen Haonan-Wen Moyan version which MDL didn't have the page.

Plot is about FL and her scumbag husband was to get married. On their wedding day, the husband's personality completely changes drastically and he disappears. FL single-handedly supports the company. Four years later, she reports her husband's death, finally forcing him to reappear. She finally gets her wish and divorces the seemingly perfect but ultimately rotten marriage (The scene was so iconic)

FL best friend, celebrates the occasion at a karaoke bar by having her brother-ML, who secretly loves the female lead, pretend to be a male model to advance his career.

To appease FL grandmother, FL has a one-night stand with the ML, and initially falls for him. However, due to his attentiveness and gentleness, she gradually develops feelings for him. The two signed a sugar daddy/sugar baby agreement.

Lu Lulu herself has a very strong and assertive aura, perfectly suited for this domineering female CEO role. The emotional scenes are also very heart-wrenching; she's independent on the outside but soft on the inside. Wang Nan is quite good as Green Tea Male lead and it feels better than Shen Haonan one.

Recommended to watch.
