Sweet noona romance with fun ending

I watched this drama weeks ago & if I don't write MDL review immediately, I might forget about the drama. This is the case with this drama. A few days ago, I thought I had not seen it so I clicked play but the early scenes were familiar.

What I liked:
1. ML characterisation - He's caring & romantic. In many vertical dramas, ML fell for FL when they were children or at least when he was a teen. In this drama, he was a younger colleague of FL who got to know her before her marriage. I find this background more realistic.
2. Ending - Fun ending and I love how supporting characters were written into the ending.
3. Villain arc - I like how SFL Stella was written. She was obsessed & possessive and how her true nature was revealed was a good scene.
4. Supporting characters - I like FL's employees & ML's right hand man.

What I disliked:
1. Romance - ML was more invested in their relationship than FL. I also don't sense much romantic chemistry between Meng Lu and Chen Yun Ting.
