The Feel-Good Part

The show was a good rom-com. With various stories sliding in together, it was pretty enjoyable to watch.

The Disappointing Part

The audience seemed disappointed with the storyline as they had high expectations compared to season 1.

In-Depth Analysis

The story revolves around how people choose different methods to gain their partner’s trust and love. To do so, they made various sacrifices to prove their love and had to undergo multiple changes to be accepted by their partner, like how Wei Qing handled Zhou Shi patiently when she turned blind for a while proved that Wei Qing loved Zhou Shi. All the partners were entirely different from each other, which was very interesting to watch. The first couple was the business lover Wei Qing and art lover Zhou Shi. The second couple was the school’s heartthrob Lin Fei Fei who dates an aspiring artist Ning Fei, and the third couple was the perfect academic student Bi Qui Jing and the bully of the school, Li Ming Cheng. Despite their differences, they managed to win each other and finally have a happy marriage. The storyline and the plot had a lot of potentials and could have been a better show. The audience found the show boring. The story seemed all over the place and got confusing.

The series’ cast was great; they all did well in their roles. Yan Xi played Wei Qing, Xu Xiao Nuo played Zhou Shi, Cai Yi Jia played Ning Fei, Yang Xin Yang played Ling Fei Fei, Li Xin Bo played Bi Qui Jing, and Hu Wen Zhe played Li Meng Cheng. Their chemistry was excellent, and the viewers are excited to see their favorite couples again in season 2!
