Asia Top Awards.. with all due respect, I've never heard about this award before.
Yes, I've never heard of it either. I did some digging and I found a Facebook page of one of the sponsors of the awards. From what I could determine, this is a new award and 2023 is the first year. It is a Thailand award. I think the main sponsor is ชมรมพัฒนาธุรกิจและทรัพยากรมนุษย์ (Business and Human Resources Development Club). They are the sponsors for several other awards in Thailand. According the their Facebook, The longest running awards that they sponsor seem to be Thailand Digital Awards and Thailand Kids Awards. So now they are sponsoring this new Asia Top Awards which focus on the Entertainment industry. Most of winners are Thai actors and Thai content, but there some international winners.

I don't know as I would consider this a "prestigious award," but it's nice to see people get some recognition.

So does Qin Tian come close to ruining ML's company? His goal is sabotage right?
Yes, Qin Tian does create havoc with ML company. His goal was revenge against ML family, so he creates chaos in order to get ML fired and then take away the company from him. His revenge is to destroy Song family and make them lose the family company so Qin Tian will be the new owner. He comes close to this goal. He causes problems to get ML temporarily removed as CEO, and then buys shares so that he is majority shareholder in the company so he can permanently remove ML and take over. However, ML and Hao Jun work to get the other members of the Board of Directors on their side and FL and Luo Qin work to buy shares so Luo Qin has enough shares that Qin Tian doesn't have a majority shares anymore. There is a showdown at the Board of Directors meeting, and Board votes to keep ML as CEO. Qin Tian is defeated.
At some point in the drama, we learned that he has been diagnosed as paranoid . He looked and acted normal but…
Yes. It was quite jarring as a viewer to see these things at the end of the drama since before that the drama had been focusing on a healing theme for all of the characters. For the Older Sister character, she had been characterized by the FL as a wonderful older sister and a very positive friend to Qin Tian as seen in flashbacks. Then suddenly she is a mercenary b*tch trying to extort money from the grandfather and only using the brother. It's also implied that she might have gotten pregnant on purpose just for financial gain reasons. Usually a dead sibling is portrayed positively in these sorts of dramas. It was strange and felt out of place somehow.

Yes, I was also surprised there was no redemption/happy end for him. Just straight to the police station. I was also surprised that they made the Older sister so mercenary. Very unusual.
I love the drama that's why I have lots of questions about the mystery behind it that I didn't get an answer or…
You ask a lot of good questions. There were many plot holes that the scriptwriters did not resolve. I'll try to answer to my best guess. Yes, the parents died abroad. How the children got separated, I'm not sure either. Qin Tian was living abroad in the same city as the parents, so he was closest to the scene when the accident occured. The writers don't say, but I'm guessing that the Sister put Qin Tian name down as an emergency contact person with the school she was attending since he was local. So the hospital notified him when the accident happened. He mentioned that he was the one to take Xuan Xuan back to China to the FL parents, so that is why FL and ML never met. I'm not dure why he only took Xuan Xuan, so I can't really explain why the children were separated. For the pins, it wasn't clarified directly. but I think the FL bought them as a matching set for her and the sister. So she kept one and gave the other to her sister. The sister took it with her when she went abroad. I'm guessing that the police or the hospital gave the pin to Hao Yu/Grandfather when they came to get Chen Chen as it was his mother's. This is my guess as it was not stated in the drama.
I'm confused. In Ep. 24, Haoyu tells Sile he wants to have a wedding, but didn't they have a wedding ceremony in Ep. 9 with both families in Sile hometown?
