Wholesome, steady drama that did a great enemies to lovers trope

This drama was so unique! I loved the beginning with enemies to lovers trope done so well, and I loved how the female lead was so witty about it. I really liked the chemistry between the two leads. Unlike many dramas, it wasn't really back and forth, big misunderstanding, and super dramatic romance plots. I liked that for the most part the drama focused on developing trust between the male and female leads with minor issues, just deepening the relationship. The romance was really steady and was just comfortably growing throughout the drama. The drama for the most part was really lighthearted, focusing really on the developing relationship between the Wei and Yan clans. I really liked that a lot of the characters were goofy and wholesome. I also really liked the beginning and how honorable the male lead was - even when he didn't trust her, he continued to treat her with respect. For most of the drama, the female lead was presented as being extremely smart and honorable, loyal to the Wei clan, while the male lead was seen as being the one to make mistakes. What I really liked was when the playing field was evened when the female lead made a mistake, realized it, and made it up to her husband. It demonstrated that even she isn't perfect in the relationship. The drama also took an interesting take in demonstrating loyalty to the people over their own loved ones which was so consistent throughout the show - both the female and male leads were very understanding of each other in this sense. I will say a lot does happen the last three episodes which was very surprising given how steady and calm all the other episodes were. Overall, the drama had a great start and was very consistent and fulfilling in the plot and the ending. I definitely have scenes I would rewatch.
