A woman of low character uses men for their money and dumps them when they are not convenient
As usual, this story is written by a woman and has all the standard clichés about the so-called strong woman. The LF is a woman from the countryside who is ignorant of the ways of the city that she is now living in.Now in the city, she manages to snag men by becoming their girlfriend so that they are compelled to help her with money, housing, jobs, etc. With each man she uses them, deceives them, cheats on them and moves on to the next guy in line.
All the men in her life, young or old, are the classic, stereotypical simps and beta men who have no standards or boundaries. Essentially, the LF deceives these simps, lies to them, cheats on them, and then the simps beg her to forgive them and take them back. Nothing surprising about this since ALL female Chinese writers cannot come up with a plot where there are actual real, strong men with boundaries that cannot be violated.
The intent of this show is to get views and ratings from the growing ranks of divorced and left-over women in China whom no one wants. These women have ample time every evening to watch these unreal shows where deceptive, adulterous women are always forgiven and always have multiple rich men wanting them even when a normal would be repulsed by their character and behavior.
This show was eventually killed when it could no longer sustains its dwindling ratings and even left-over women thought the plot was too ridiculous. So, the director and screenwriter quickly contrived a nonsensical ending to finally kill the show.

Adulterous wife betrays husband but thinks she is virtuous and dutiful
This show was written by Chinese female scriptwriters who are idiots and it was especially written for divorced or left-over women who believe their extreme feminist beliefs are normal.
The story itself was totally incoherent and has no plot to speak of and no rational continuity between scenes.
But there are cultural and moral contexts from different eras that are badly mixed up. In other words, a cultural moral situation from the 1920s is treated as if it is the morality of 2000s and beyond, and at other times the duties of husbands/wives are treated as if they are in the 18th century. And sometimes behaviors from wives, husbands, etc. which would not be tolerated in the 1920s are excused as if the characters are in 21st century with its loose morals and laws.
Here are some observations and these are definitely spoilers:
1. The FL is compelled to marry the ML while she prefers ML2.
2. FL frequently meets the ML2 while deceiving her husband ML.
3. So, from ML husband's perspective she is cheating, committing adultery, lying, deceiving multiple times with ML2. And the ML husband is AWARE of it all.
4. So #3 is ridiculous in the 1920s. At that time husbands would have immediately killed such a wife. But in this ridiculous show, the husband not only tolerates adultery but keeps letting his wife go out freely to meet the ML2.
5. Despite being married, the ML and FL don't have sex. Seriously??? Which idiot wrote this scene? Eventually, husband ML makes his wife have sex with him.
6. But #5 is treated as rape in the show even though such a concept did not exist at all in the 1920s. At that time ALL WIVES were expected to absolutely have sex with their husbands on demand and husbands had the full authority to override wife's objections and compel them to have sex anyway.
7. The FL frequently visits her paramour ML2 but returns to husband she is betraying after each visit because of her duty to her family and her husband.
8. But FL had no shame in betraying her duty to her husband by meeting her paramour and giving him valuables including a Jade object despite her husband wanting to see it.

This is a Simp/Cuckold show that showcases hatred of men (misandry) by feminists
This show is a feminist wet dream and fantasy written primarily for leftover women aka "Sheng nu" (剩女), divorced women, and women who no longer have any romantic hopes in life. The female writer's purpose is to create a story that showcases hatred of men and characterizes simps/cuckolds as the only decent menALL the lead male characters are portrayed as the classic simps/cuckolds who run after women with their tongues hanging out and begging the lead females for scraps of romance. The male characters are highly feminized, with dialogs that only a woman would utter. There is not a single drop of testosterone in the lead males.
On the other hand, the female characters are portrayed as flirting and having seksual relationships with multiple men, having no-boundaries, no character nor any sense of morality bottom line, and as being fought over by multiple simps/cuckolds, who are willing to tolerate the women's cheating, deception, cuckolding.
Without delving too much into all the characters, here is how one of the sample scenes played out:
1. Qi Fei and Han Li are two men desperately fighting to possess the woman Ye Fan -No idea why since she has no redeeming qualities or morality.
2. Both men shower her with houses, money, expensive gifts, while she OPENLY cheats, lies and cuckolds both of them and refuses to stop her cheating. So, did the men immediately dump her into the trash can? NO..... They begged her even more.
2. Ye Fan proceeds to two-time and cuckold both men while shuttling between the houses the men provide - This is utterly unrealistic, since real men would not tolerate such a low-class woman even for a second.
3. Ye Fan is "torn" between the two men as each man begs her to dump the other man and marry them instead - Seriously!!! what kind of delusional woman would dream up this scenario?
4. Han Li's father is supposed to be a rich, successful businessman and is also a simp and actually wants to enable his son's cuckoldry by Ye Fan -Rich, successful businessmen are Alpha males who NEVER tolerate women of low character.
5. So the father finds out that his son is letting Ye Fan and her mother stay for free in one of his houses. And learns that Ye Fan is not only cheating with Qi Fei but about to fly the coop and move to Qi Fei's house.
6. So, did the father now exhibit his Alpha male characteristics to kick the cheating Ye Fan out of the house and forever prohibit his son from humiliating the family name????? NOOO!!!
7. Instead the father joins in the charade of begging Ye Fan and her mother to dump Qi Fei and marry his son. He promises. houses, gifts and all but grab the women's feet. --- A real man would rather kill himself than humiliate himself for ANY woman, ever.
This show is total feminist trash and has NO redeeming message or inspiration for any real man or woman.
So who is this show for???? It is fore all the leftover women, lonely divorcees, women who have hatred for men.

Cheating girlfriend in an excruciatingly boring story
Chinese drama makers usually portray female cheating in positive light and male cheating in negatively. And usually the male characters are presented as feminized versions of the ideal woman or one-dimensional villains, who suddenly get religion and in tears, beg the cheating women for forgiveness (or change their ways)This is one such story. And it crawls. Excruciatingly! This show is not worth watching.
The LF (played by Sun Yi) has a 10 year relationship with her rich boyfriend and they live separately. Seriously???? What does the word relationship mean in Chinese context? Does it mean the two never got together in 10 years of "relationship"?
She is getting tired of him, so instead of breaking up with him, she starts an affair with the veterinarian LM. For a few episodes she two-times her original boyfriend while lying to him, and meeting the vet on the sly.
There is not much romance or even good performances. The cheating LF is portrayed by the director/story writers as a neo-feminist who is justified in cheating even though there was no context provided to audience. And the original boyfriend was portrayed as a devious and evil man whom no decent woman would ever want.
Actually, the original boyfriend (played by Zhang Wan Yi) was a very decent man who would be considered a huge catch for most normal girls in China, Korea and pretty much anywhere in the world. He is rich, successful in business and wants to marry his girlfriend (instead of just having "relationship"), wants to help her parents in their business. A man like that would have girls lining up on the Great Wall. But the story writers and director considered him to be the anti-thesis of a good man and turned him into a unidimensional caricature of a bad man. The performance by this actor was easily the worst in the entire show.
The LM (played by Zhang Wan Yi) is the typical androgynous, effeminate man that Chinese Dramas (and K-dramas) are infested with but loved obsessively by Chinese girls and teens. His performance is nothing to write home about, but his nonchalant, stoic demeanor came across perfectly for a man who wants to seduce a woman who is already taken. If only this character had been played with an older more manly actor, the show might have been saved.
The LF was pretty but unimpressive. There was little to know chemistry with the two men she was two timing. But here relationship with her bestie did turn out be the highlight of her performance. Less said the better
