Plot was more refined and comedy aspect are too strong
Although i hated some of popular adaptation of this drama, sometimes i never realized if i am masochist or someone who looks for perfect version. Actually this version was not bad compared to the popular one. The plot is rich and the pacing is tight. The first 40 episodes are excellent, packed with laughs and incredibly sweet. ML speaks earliest from all the version and has the most dialogue, and his character development is the most natural, with the most detailed transformation. It's not a melodramatic story where he suddenly becomes talkative after a couple of jealous moments or when saving FL. The little skits between ML and his mother, Wang, even have a sequel, which is quite entertaining (Huang Shuaishuai actually got wit skill even not like Sun Yue but i quite like his antics).Another duanju problem they got good pacing and somehow in the middle the plot is disjointed not sure if the scriptwriter have changed or its a norm. The pacing of the last 40 episodes slows down a bit, and the plot feels somewhat disjointed. Although the story is the most complete, resolving the conflict between the two younger brothers, the resolution feels simplistic and childish, leaving "huh?" feeling. ML's character is as perfect as ever—gentle, considerate, and easily appeased. FL, however, starts strong but declines a bit. She's intelligent and understanding in the beginning, but suddenly becomes less intelligent and lacks boundaries in the middle FL character transformation was quite unnatural.. She's completely oblivious to and ignores ML's obvious jealousy. If ML and FL were in the same position, this would be a major flaw. It seems that female-oriented content is more forgiving of FL. The lead actors' performances are solid, especially FL. SFL, who also rose to prominence, delivers a very good performance, bringing her character to life. She comes across as genuinely cute and talkative, not just noisy. ML has a good physique and is generous. Even the younger brother's eyebrow acting is superb (laughs).
The good things the villains screentime is minimal so its quite full comedy, recommended to watch.
