It could easily be renamed to "How to Chase a Man Until He Gives In"

Overall, I found it enjoyable to watch, and the performances of all the actors were great, but... watching Zheng Shu Yi (a supposedly professional, capable, mature woman) chase after Shi Yan for more than 10 episodes was a bit cringe. Mostly because she would either tell a lie or stage a trick to get his attention, then when she finally got his attention, she'd become silent, act cold, or run away. Then immediately after, she'd begin chasing him all over again and repeating the cycle of bait, chase, and run away. The scriptwriting for their romance dynamic felt a bit pretentious ngl.

Amazingly enough, Qin Shi Yue also shamelessly chases after Yu You, and much to my surprise, it was more entertaining to watch (and was actually my favourite part of the show, tbh). Probably because Qin Shi Yue is established from the start as a young, naive, airheaded 22-year-old who is a bit spoiled but innocent at heart. Seeing her chase down Yu You was delightful because we get to see him pushed out of his comfort zone by force and entranced by her tenacious spirit. He rejected her in so many ways, but she was like, nope, rejection denied. 😂 Ultimately, I was entertained the entire show (even the cringe moments were enertaining) so I have to admit that it's actually a very good watch if you just want a delightful romcom to binge on a Friday night with snacks. 8/10
