First thing you HAVE to do before starting this is turn off your brain. Seriously, this is the kind of script that crumbles the more you think about it so don't hurt yourself by trying to make sense of anything, it's not worth it. If you can do that, this a fun and kinky version of the classic rich arrogant CEO and Cinderella romance where he tries to bang her a lot, not always asking for permission. This retained my attention mostly for the lux production and gorgeous cast (Ryan Ren is made of legs and has a resting bitch face that fits extremely well with the angry-sexy boss cliche he's playing while Li Xing Yao is the perfect Cinderella, cute by day and seductive by night). I love how hilariously extra the direction is, they film make-out sessions like action scenes, Ryan Ren is jumping everywhere like a panther on steroïds, and everything is so maximalist, you can't not be entertained. I was not always pleased with the story, there is too many crazy rivals who have zero personnality beyond pure jealousy and I hate secret baby plots with a burning passsion. I think the drama went downhill after that twist, but I still completed it and (mostly) enjoyed it.
