Duration is too long and it become snoozefest.
I want to watch Zhao Xixi drama and this is not really my liking not because the actor (all of the actor are doing great even the supporting casts) but the plot is slow paced and boring. Wang Changpeng is great portraying indifference ML.The only thing that i like FL interaction with FL doctor friends which is less than 13 minutes.
The plot is about FL and ML are dating in secret for 2 years. ML always has cold behaviour to FL and FL didnt complain even she is unhappy. FL wants to break up and ML agree. ML ex comeback, FL was going back to ML again and found out she is pregnant. They got married for the baby sake. And their cold treatment is start again to create great misunderstanding.
When I watch this, it make me frustrated about how both of them lack communicaton and perfect combo for red flag couple. ML is emotional manipulator while FL is having victim mentality. The kiss between the couple looks so fake and not too bold.
Wont recommend this snoozefest, unless you want to sleep.

I miss Sun Yue but he doesn't suit this.
I watch this because i miss Sun Yue. Glad he trying to get new role after his dispute with Xu Yizhen. But unfortunately, he didn't suits this angst drama (I was surprised cause i like Sun Yue act with Zhang Chuxuan when they act on angst drama), i feel he is kind of miscast on this drama. Jia Yixuan acts well on this.The Plot is basically about reincarnation between tragic FL and ML and their last life are being killed. ML has bad dream about his past lifeand try to do check up and got terminal cancer. ML met FL who didn't remember anything and she has crush on her office partner and try to do voodoo to make office partner fell in love with him and got ML instead.
OK Li Hao as antagonist is quite good compare to his Male lead role. The ending is nice to my liking but its not Sun Yue best drama.
Still watchable for everyone.

Even Zhang Chuxuan not saving in this drama
This is one of Zhang Chuxuan black hole drama for every part of it; The plot; the styling (the ugly makeup is that not ugly and not even trying shows this show has cheap budget).Even her character growth is not that really great despite how calculative the FL strategicI distracted by Lihao acting as ML in this drama. He is completey jerk in here. There is no character growth on this drama. The supporting cast acting are bad (the FL stepsister, FL dad). Zhang Chuxuan is on verge in this disaster drama. The plot is too much hole that make audience asks what really happened and suddenly they got answer but not solve the mystery. The editor and scriptwriter needs to get into class again.
Not really recommend to watch.

Just here Because of Food not the leads.
First of all, I want to say Peng Dai Dai and Duan Meiyang have no chemistry between them and i feel the Male Lead is kind of reluctant to near Female Lead (in character and real life).Plot is about FL is found out she is getting cheated by her husband and his best friend. Her restaurant is snatched by the cheaters. Somehow modern girl transmigrated into FL body and make her noodles recipe and make her own restaurant. ML who tried to find food since his mother developed anorexia eat FL food and try to make her as his personal chef.
They are quite have funny moments but the romance and kiss scene is not interesting.
Only watch for once.

Both actor on their comfort zone
This is highly visual pleasing CP even i am not their fans. The height is make me pleasant.Both actor are on their comfort acting zone, Chen Si on his CEO role and Meng Na on her seductress role.
The plot is about FL wants to seduce FL step sister fiancee to take a revenge on her step sister. The acting is not that great but not that bad. It was so-so. The banter is interesting because the sexual tension is there but i feel their acting range is not make me amazed.
Still watchable though.

Not overacting green tea ML
This is one of Duan Meiyang best drama for me. I watch many his drama but all of his drama is not really good because too many bad plot and direction. I never thought Song Yujia suits Duan Meiyang and their chemistry is not disappointing since DMY have kind of younger brother vibe despite both actor born on the same year. DMY plays green tea ML was my favorite even he didn't beat Wang Peiyan throne.The Plot is about FL who is already to finalize their divorce to her business marriage husband. Of course they keep the divorce secret for business. ML didn't know FL divorce try to climb into her room and then thought they had an affair. The Pseudo Infidelity plot is not dragged too long so there is no repeat action on the couple behavior. ML was willingly to being a mistress since he fell in love with FL for a long time. FL ex husband is not too scumbag compared to other drama (he didn't cheat) but he is just realized he already fell in love with FL.
The ending was well-deserved.
Recommended to watch for Duan Meiyang fans.

This is Bai Yan underrated drama
I watch this when i got Bai Yan festive and most of my friends didn't like the ML and this drama. To my surprise this drama was kind of okay for. The older sister-little brother romance is convincing despite the CP feeling is slightly low. I like both of character growth especially the FL when know the ML real purpose. The yellow effect in this drama, is maybe not of everyone liking.I still recommended to watch this if you both fans of the actors.

Let Dog shines more
I watch this with zero expectation. The plot is about FL was originally evil NPC and suddenly got someone transmigrated to her body. The original plot is FL drowned ML beloved concubine maid and want to get ML concubine miscarriage. Know the ending of her life was near since ML will executed FL for hurting his beloved concubine. She wants to run from him. But ML actually being comatose for unknown reason was transform into FL Dog and know FL cursed him. ML beloved concubine smug when met FL since she will ask ML for FL death and without knowing ML is hear all of his beloved scheme.I watch it just for dog, the Dog was smart and can acting as being dead for every time.
Still watchable for Dog scene.

Please lose the "romance" word on romcon in this drama.
I watched because i like Zhen Ziqi acting and his voice. Teng Zewen acting is still passable to me so i watch this. This drama is quite funny i like Zhen Ziqi acting and his sentence. It was quite funny. The comedy is not too slapstick and they make word pun in Chinese. I quite like FL assistant character beside ML character. For the CP, they have zero chemistry and i don't feel anything when they kissed. But the ending is just like what the hell?It feels like they abandoned this project in middle of time.

Quite decent adaptation since its not my favorite plot.
This is adapted from Guo Yuxin-Ma Xiaoyu story with ancient time.Plot is about with fictional diseases to initiate a couple's relationship. For my liking, the plot is not my favorite so there is many version that I abandoned. ML is quite pushover and using his power as crown prince to steal the bride. Their biggest problem is lack of communication and ML is not honest with FL about the truth. The chemistry is great and basically another Wang Haozhen repeat drama beside his collaboration with Han Yutong. The chemistry is shining bright and complement their superb acting.
The ending are based from your own beliefs. Depend of how you like the endings.
Recommended to watch regardless of the flaw.

He Jianqi proves he can act despite didnt have acting background.
When I watch this for the first time, i didn't get He Jianqi hype. I thought he just another handsome who cannot act and i was WRONG. He Jianqi seems to prefer kind of misunderstanding and lack of communication ML. Wang Gege proofs she didn't just another comedic FL specialist and its one of her transformation into melodramatic drama. Both Chemistry is sizzling and become one of my each CP for each actors.It was quite nice to have sequel on this drama about ML brother. Please check Summer Rose, if you have done this drama.

Why the Nice premises to become Wasteland of both actor skills?
I have high expectation with collaboration between Guo Yuxin and Shen Haonan and i have to say the drama is quite big disappointment for both actors. Guo Yuxin queen of chemistry didn't work well in this drama. Even Shen Haonan didn't save this drama.The plot is about FL confessed to ML who happened to be her boss and her boss is fired her (quite understand the boss POV but it was too extreme since it just merely confession not sexual harassment just giving warning is enough unless FL do it for many times). FL is regret her action, getting drunk,hooked up with her boss and run away from him.
FL is actually not easy to being bullied which is quite nice but for Romance drama and the actor caliber the kiss was on rookie level (this is not campus drama duh, office drama usually have sizzling kiss). There is too much jump on the plot which is the plot is going nowhere and the ending is like eh what happened? what did i watch? did i getting hypnotize? where is my precious time?
Not recommend to rewatch. Just once is enough.

Classical Tale that like black tea, can be enjoyed by every moment.
This is like K-Drama High Society where FL pretends to become socialite to go aboard and search for rich husband which happened to be ML best friend. ML knows FL is not socialite and feel she actually target him, her hinder all her effort for getting ML friend's love. FL scholarship was being sabotaged by ML best friend sister who happened to become ML fiance. ML is slowly attracted by FL due her strong sense of mind.I love main character growth especially FL for being just materialistic until she declare to not engaged by ML best friend due her change of value view. Even ML best friend love her, she knew she would be replaced by his ex. She knew her worth. Its contain so deep because FL pretends to be rich while ML best friend sister pretend to be genius.
ML on the other view was being senile by FL presence, slowly tried to enter FL world and know the truth. Despite all of his hatred to FL before, He still want to help FL to gain her purpose even he still forced his love to her.
The Chemistry is on fire even the kisses was not too much compare to their other work.
Recommended to rewatch again.

Fake Upright FL
I watch it because of Zhang Beixi even i dont like his character in here. I never fans of Li Ruoqi acting and yeah she cannot make me like the character.I know the plot is quite common FL and ML break up and 4 years later they met when FL tried to make love with SML. FL get hymen operation to assure she is virgin lmao.
Genuinely felt bad for SML, He got into jail because her father did crime. His best friend backstabbed him to get his dream girl His dream girl just used him for revenge. Only his character deserve justice.
The ending was too hypocrite for me she want to get feminist stand by her but her action is saying otherwise always dependent on men. Ugh.
Not recommended. Full of FL hypocrisy.

One of example how to create plain story into wonderful gem.
I love Guo Yuxin and this is Liu Haoqun first vertical drama without Jiang Shiqi as his partner. I lowered my expectation since i always Liu Haoqun on comedy but surprisingly i liked their chemistry better than few of Guo Yuxin popular pairing. As expected from queen of chemistry. They feel like old married couple and their 90's are quite fashionable and not look tacky.The plot is somewhat generic and cliche. FL aka Yang Chun Rong got forced to marry Mafia King but ML aka Lu Bing He
shows as his knight and somewhat FL accept ML marriage proposal and the sweet journey of love begin.
Liu Haoqun successfully delivers as Lu Bing He who looks cool but warm inside. The micro expression is on point and few of usual short drama actor could do that. Guo Yuxin are quite keen on choosing script she can make plain script into great story and its rare for actress from short drama to do that (the one is Han Yutong).
The minor flaw on the plot is about ML father who passed away and his friend going to jail for small amount of money. They could do it better with that plot.
Overall still recommend to watch for everyone.
