The heroine Song Xia accidentally bumped into Lu Yan, the son of the richest man, while delivering food. In order to raise enough research funds for her boyfriend, Song Xia sold her electric car worth more than 1,000 yuan to Lu Yan for 5,000 yuan, which made him misunderstand her as a gold digger. After that, the two people who had no intersection had another conflict because of Lu Yan's father's will - the will required him to marry the daughter of his father's first love in order to inherit the sky-high inheritance, and the other party turned out to be Song Xia. In order to get the inheritance, Lu Yan designed to get Song Xia away from her "scumbag" boyfriend and tried to make her fall in love with him, but in the process of careful planning, he fell in love with Song Xia first.

Wholesome romance with no green tea
This drama was hotly requested in a subreddit. Luckily the drama is available on iQIYI app - so I watched it there to make my subscription worthwhile. It was a good watch.What I liked:
1. Acting - Ma Qian Qian was excellent in her role as a down-to-earth struggling everyday people. I emphathise with her character. This is my second Ji Jun Liang drama and gosh both times he played a cocky guy who got humbled by a circumstance. Good actong chemistry between the two.
2. FL characterisation - She was earnest, too nice and not worldly and I liked that about her. I understood why she helped her fiancé with money matters - she wanted to have her own home & family and that moved me.
3. Supporting characters - I loved FL's boss Sister Lin & her husband, ML's cousin Lu Xu & ML's bodyguard. They all have good intentions for the couple.
4. Styling - OMG 😍 Ji Jun Liang in biker outfit! He was 🔥!
5. Romance - I'm 50-50 about their romance because ML wasn't truthful until after the marriage certificate was obtained. However their dates were cute even though orchestrated. There were some kisses wish there were steamy ones but I think director wanted a wholesome drama.
6. Antagonist arc - Yes for once we don't have green tea in this drama. The main antagonist is ML's jealous uncle and boy there was a good arc for him. I really liked the scene when he was honest with his family.
What I disliked:
1. ML characterisation - I disliked the scheming. I could see he was slowly falling for her but wish he had come clean before they got marriage certificate.
2. ML's grandmother - Wow what an insecure woman. I can't believe she was consumed by wealth.
Favourite scene
The first time ML & FL met. What a meet cute!
