mostly loved the whole thing. Fl was really strong after how she was raised and heartache she had been through. She didn't know how to express love and was misunderstood by the guy she was involved with who also didn't have good role models for a loving relationship. The ML was awesome as the puppy in love! I loved how he threw himself at her and how demanding he was as her lover. He made me lol. Loved how the fl countered her dad and brother. Loved how ML defended and loved the fl. Loved his mom and sister. Really liked the twists at the end on how their relationship came about and it highlighted what a good guy ML was. Liked the HE and their playfulness. Overall, a really good watch for me. Had some steamy scenes, more so in first half and good chemistry.

I mostly loved it. It was a fun watch for me.

wow... bathtub video phone s*x.... first time for that in a C-drama for me, lol
this one is definitely a wild watch

I didn't really find the ML to be noble, lol. He was a ruthless, manipulative, conniving bastard at times. But, hey, he was emotionally stunted by a cold, ruthless father who caused his mom to be depressed and commit suicide, so all can be forgiven in C-drama land. Ml is totally arrogant, but it comes back to bite him in the arse. We don't really see how the FL ends up in the back seat of the car having sex with him in the opening scene and I really hate missing that background information. Again, C-drama, lol. Anyway, bad stuff happens from ML and his ex and FL's stepdad, etc. I hated the ML had to be encouraged by his friend to save the FL. I hated that the ML set the FL up for his own benefit having her humiliated just so he could use her as an excuse to close his deal. I'm glad he had to work, but not enough IMO, to gain her forgiveness later. There were a few good kisses and decent chemistry. HE w/pregnancy and marriage proposal and FL reunited w/her dad's family who happen to be rich, lol.

Spoilers below:

ML is drugged by wannabe wife and ends up raping fl. He thinks she is part of the set up of him being drugged while she tells him she's just in the wrong room. 5 weeks later, fl is pregnant w/triplets. Ml brings her home to mom who is thrilled. Fl has scum dad who abandoned his wife in the hospital and tries to sell fl to multiple men. 2Fl and dad are the villains who repeatedly try to use/harm fl. ML falls for fl and vice versa. HE w/scum dad shipped off and 2fl's family in ruins and MC married on her 20th birthday.

wait... my computer is still steaming.....

would have been better if almost ALL the intimate scenes, kissing weren't edited out. As it was, it was already too choppy. FL was cute and liked her hair styled up. Ml wasn't as bad as in one other version. May have been as bad w/missing scenes? He was remorseful and sought to make it up. FL came back too soon after what he did. HE w/proposal in front of her dad and bf.

Yes. She did not really have cancer. HE.

loved how sassy the fl was after finding out she had cancer. Loved her take-no-prisoners and kick arse attitude for the most part. She made me laugh at some of the crazy stuff, like hopping around w/legs and arms tied while head butting ex! Loved how ml was a puppy for her and couldn't get enough love when they finally got together. HE w/them married. Liked the saying about throwing rice on the keyboard and letting chickens peck out a better plan, lol.

quite a few repeated scenes and at least one out of sequence due to choppy edits. Not as much chemistry/tension as other ZBX dramas. FL Li Sheng Nan is ok but not one of my favorites. I wish there had been better communication w/MC. Fl could have explained why she didn't want to divorce at that time. MC could have confessed his feelings SOMETIME within the 3 YEARS they were sharing a bed. It's always so ironic when 2ml had a mistress but then wigs out that his actual wife has found someone else, like he's the victim. What a scum 2ml beating the girl who he professes to love that's pregnant. Liked the kisses/ls. Wish fl had been more flirty w/ml. HE w/ML proposing to FL (even though she's not divorced yet) and some karma for 2mc.

Not my favorite ZBX, but I'll watch any of his dramas at least once, lol.

Always look for Jwells posted links. If you haven't already. :)

LSW looked great in the fuzzy hoodie w/animal ears and bare chested. Too bad that was the best shots of him like that. Only 1 short kiss scene. That's a crying shame because both LSW and LL can kiss like fire. Good story on how FL comes back from her 7 year relationship and the sacrifices she made. Story really used the troupes of mean and arrogant in-laws. Loved ML's mom and how she loved FL. Didn't like the FL's mom at first until she realized how bad her daughter had had it w/2ml and his parents. Then, FL's mom flipped her stance and fully supported FL in divorcing scum. There were a lot of longing and affectionate glazing by ML. Really wish script had moved a bit faster where there was more skinship and passion for the MC. End was lackluster for me. Sure, 2ml scum gets karma, but MC is just walking in the rain. True, a lot of good points in the drama, but people, I want more hugs and kisses, lol.

Ohmygosh! LSW in a fuzzy cute hoodie w/ears and bare chested. YUM. At about the :51 mark. :)

ok. so finished. lackluster end for me. not enough hugs and kisses. basically, just one short kissing scene without the real passion both these leads have shown in other C-dramas. I still liked most of the story because FL redeems herself and, hey, Liang Si Wei and Lan Lan (but mostly LSW, teehee)

sweet romance started by a look and blind date. FL has low self-confidence due to her family situation. Ml not really interested in marriage except to please his mom. But, he had already been attracted to the fl when she mistook him for her blind date. Loved ml's mom and how she loved and backed fl. Liked how fl's brother came forward at the end to make things right. Liked how there was reference that females were as important at males. Liked how the MC fell in love w/one another. Thought the ml's assistant was fun. Some things felt glossed over and never developed. Of course, there has to be a crazy 2fl who really needed more karma. Only 1 kiss scene and it was short. Didn't feel there was much chemistry w/mc. That's a shame as I have seen Ma Shi Yao kiss like fire. HE w/both confessing love and wanting to make contract marriage real. But, never shows them consummating relationship just them going to a doctor who confirms fl is pregnant. I feel a bit cheated, lol. Did like how ml quickly began to tell others fl was his wife.

ok. i've seen some crazy stuff in these verticals, but this is the first time seeing someone take a knife slash to the upper left back and then need surgery on their stomach. rotf

ok. finished. Mainly, I watched for Ma Shi Yao. Really liked how protective his character became of FL.

TY. I was waiting to see if you came across a longer version than the ones Mel found before watching. Since this one is the same length, looks like this is what i'll go with, lol! I figured, if anyone could find a longer version, it would be you. You are our Links Queen! Thank you for all you hard work.

I can understand her not telling him about the kid after what she heard him say. I liked that the ML loved her, even if he couldn't admit that to himself, when she was plus sized. You see more of that in flashback scenes near the end of the drama. Really wish they had gotten together sooner so we had more romance and passion. Basically just one decent kiss scene, which is a shame as Zeng Hui is a fine kisser. I can also understand the fl's character as no longer the bubbly girl from before after having lost one baby and having to care for one w/health issues. At first, I thought maybe someone else had answered his phone and told her not to call, but near the end you find out he really did that to her. Liked him less at that point. However, fl forgave him and HE w/fl and child reunited w/ML and his family. Liked when ML's grandmother slapped the green tea .
