Only stayed for Younger Brother-Older Brother story,
I watched this first since visual wise was more okay than other version and i liked Xue Ziqi and Wang Nian Jiang Cheng but too bad they are not couple in this version.Whoever cast Wang Nian Jiang Cheng and Xiang Shuai has eagle eye since the looked like siblings. But i need to say the plot was unbearable to watch. The father kidnaps and drugged his sister, and the father's character was one of baddest character in all version i watch. Luckily this drama only has 59 episodes, the fewest of all the versions. There are very few sweet kisses, the pacing is fast, and the ending isn't as good as the others, too abrupt. Its only advantage is the high visual appeal of the four main characters.Wang Nian Jiang Cheng is good-looking, but he doesn't feel like older brother at all, lacking maturity and his lack of chemistry with He Tian Tian was so obvious too watch. Fortunately, his younger brother, Xiang Shuai, is more youthful and his chemistry with Xue Ziqi were more satisfying to watch it feels watching Omega Man with Alpha Woman. He Tian Tian character was so annoying, i couldn't stand her childishness and i just stay for Older Sister and Younger Brother story.
Recommended only if you are hardcore fans of the actor.

Story of two couples - FL was childish but other 3 were likeable
I got interested to see this drama because of the cast in particular Xue Zi Qi & Wang Nian Jiang Cheng. I watched this drama within 24 hours of its release. The beginning was odd but overall it was OK watch.What I liked:
1. Romance - Good steamy scenes for both couples. I was surprised by main couple's bedroom antics. There was heat.
2. Personalities - I liked the contrasting personalities between the two couples.
3. Characterisation - I liked SFL a lot. Less screen time but her arc had impact on me. I also liked ML's arc especially his struggles. I also liked SML's arc.
4. Interactions - I liked when Fu Yang & Su Wan discussed their partners' habits.
5. Styling - Loved the outfits and hairstyles for SFL, ML & SML.
What I disliked:
1. FL characterisation - FL acted like a petulant child. That childish cry was irritating. She was pampered and selfish.
2. Funeral - Wow, so many relatives were disrespectful - fighting for inheritance at graveyard.
3. Antagonists - ML's father was vicious and controlling.
Favourite scene
When SFL showed her vulnerable side to SML
