Get past some really annoying characters, and it's good.

I have finally finished this in the spam of 2 months so please don't blame me if I got anything wrong.

I quite enjoyed this, I feel it's a, quite, simple cold boy meets girl then turns warm to her only kind of thing. I did really like the aspects of watching this idol, Zheng Boxu, travelling, and dealing with his, so called idol, life before ZhenZhens arrival. The thing I did not like about this drama was the characters, I feel if they would've been anymore annoying than they already are, I would've absolutely dropped this as soon as I could. Thankfully, I got through it though.

As Zheng Boxu is the main male lead I'll speak about him first. At the start you could see Boxu was just the most unmannerly to the people he worked with, as if they did not in any way matter to him. He was also, I'll say, terrible to his assistants, both ZhenZhen and the one before. However it did seem he did in a way feel bad for the one before when she quit. Throughout the drama though, you could see him slowly shifting his attitude towards other due to ZhenZhen's presence in his life and that was a major character improvement.

As ZhenZhens the main female lead, we'll go with her second. She was just the most noisiest, and refused to mind her own business at all, it honestly gave me the ick most of the time. In most situations, normal people wouldn't dare to do such things she would think about just to "help" Boxu with.

Then the second male lead, Yu Zurui. I may be very biased right now, however, I feel he was the most annoying character in the whole show, not only was he way too overly confident for his own ego, he was just honestly terrible towards ZhenZhen and one point. When he rejected her for his job and then decides he wants to pursue her again when she falls out of love with him? Mind you he had feeling for her in both situations. And to think I even liked his character at the start before a quarter in.

Second female lead, Xia Yuan. I actually really loved her at the start before half way in or about. I loved her outgoing personality and the way she made the show that wee bit funnier. However, as soon as halfway hit or about, my liking to her character just decreased, she was love obsessed with Yu Zurui, way too much. I get love obsessed characters but moving out of your own house that you share with your best friend just because you're jealous that the man you like, likes her? A bit weak of a character then, in my opinion.

And I would go into a bit more detail for the CEO in this, but I feel that would be too boring to read after all that. I also just want to say it's just the character that bothered me in SOME parts, and it is a 44 episode cdrama so most of the time I really loved watching this, I loved watched the main two grow to like each other and those sweet little parts at the end.
