A Modern Day Love Story
Despite the crazy number of episodes (36) I enjoyed this series.
It was funny, dramatic, romantic, sad, and sweet.
I liked that the FL was not a whiny spoilt brat, but turned out to be a strong and intelligent woman. Whereas, one of the MLs - the first on the scene -played by Lai Wei Ming - turned out to be that whiny spoiled brat!
The other ML - Song Wei Long - was not only gorgeous, but could act. He played his part convincingly up until the end, where he was a doting father.
Zhao Jin Mai, who played the FL, has an annoyingly high-pitched voice, but I don't hold that against her, as she was able
to switch between comedy and tragedy very well.
Outstanding in the support cast was her grandmother - played by Xu Yu Lan, but all the support cast was good, especially the younger cousin, Finn Hun, who was a convincing cheeky teenager.
I am not sure if 36 episodes were too much, but the inevitable Chinese government propaganda could have been reduced, to perhaps make this just a really good love story.
