Visually stunning CP & ML's flirtatious behaviour made me giddy with excitement

I am a fan of Han Jia Hui and Zhao Zhen Dong. I had saved this drama in my playlist the day it appeared on my Youtube dashboard. I only watched this drama 2 nights ago when a reddit user mentioned it in our discussion on Zhao Zhen Dong. I was very delighted and giddy throughout the drama. I watch this drama on repeat, well my favourite scenes of course!

Korean song "Guilty" by Taemin was played during one scene but for me, I am reminded of Taemin's song "Want" after completing this drama. The song, which is about feelings of desire, nicely encapsulates ML's feelings for FL.

What I liked:
1. Visuals - Damn both Zhao Zhen Dong and Han Jia Hui made an extremely attractive CP. Their styling was impeccable too. I loved Zhao Zhen Dong's all white ensemble (so much skin!) and Han Jia Hui's maroon jacket & maroon skirt.
2. Romance - Yes, for once this romance heavy drama met my expectations! OMG their romance was sexy and mature. That finger licking moment shocked me!!! I loved that ML was turned on by FL when she was affectionate (inhibitions lowered) and he asked for consent. That kiss was smoking hot! I also loved the ending scene.
3. ML characterisation - OMG Ximen Li Chen was coquettish with FL, I loved every moment of it! It's wonderful that he was patient, respectful and supportive. I punched the air when ML confronted his family and informed them of his intention to marry FL.
4. FL characterisation - I felt her pain when she said ML at the accident. I understood why she guarded her feelings but slowly she let her guard down and was won over by ML's sincerity. I enjoyed her works scenes though it'd be nicer if there were more.
5. Supporting characters - I was drawn to the actor who played Shen Xing who has deep voice. I liked ML's friend and FL's colleague.

What I disliked:
1. ML's grandfather - He was selfish and disrespectful towards ML and FL.
2. FL's ex - Damn, he was a rude guy. I was in disbelief watching the introductory scene.

Favourite scene
ML was turned on by FL when she was affectionate and he asked for consent.
