This is a family drama full of touching relationships and matters of the heart, transforming human connections from foes to friends, from lovers to enemies and vice versa. It centres around the lives and tribulations of one family which includes the protective and loyal Grandma Qi and her grand-daughter Ting Ting. Pan Hong in the role of Grandma Qi is exceptional and steals the show with her relentless pursuit of family unity and her unconditional love for Ting Ting. Tong Lei as the fiesty, clueless and impetuous wife is fitting. A classic case of opposites attract but it is the story of Guang Ming and Ding Xue's journey that will bring tears to your eyes. It may be a touch melancholic but it doesn't drown you in sadness. Yes, there are villains and antagonists but you come to understand their actions and for the most part, you forgive them.
I started the show because of Jin Dong and left with an appreciation for the veteran actors in the show. The acting was superb and will leave you wanting more. Keep your tissue box around for this one.

Pls skip this annoying af drama.
I decided to watch this drama after watching Jin Dong in “The First Half of my Life”. From the beginning, this drama has been a total let down. I’m at 30/38 as I write this. I’ll fast forward and ‘finish’ this show but I must warn others NOT to watch this drama.Don’t watch because -
- All the characters (save for Xu Guang Ming’s dad who is still fairly decent) are Annoying AF x 100.
- Xu Ting Ting’s maternal grandmother, Lao Qi, has only one goldfish bulging eyes look. Total awful. Plus, she makes the most Horrendous Decisions in the show. I seriously wonder WTF is wrong with her and her mentality.
- The catchphrase in the show is ‘for your own good!’ . I cannot understand and I cannot agree. IMO: I shall decide what’s good for me, not you.
- The second female lead is ugly af and looks like a transvestite. Her teeth are messy and when she speaks, she looks really hideous and witch-like.
- oh, and I must reiterate—the characters in this show are truly Annoying, Frustrating, Blood-Pressure inducing af.
Skip. Spend your time on something better. It’s a 1/10 simply because I could not give it a big fat zero.
