Both these dramas are different because while The Legend of Shen Li is a xanxia, Are You The One is a costume drama.
Yet, they hold some similarities in that we get to see nice scenaries, the FL are capables and smart while the ML can be quite manipulative and secretive.
The biggest similarity for me, is that we get to see the main lead couple living together and leading a mundane life early on in the drama.

Smart and business-savvy female lead. Both FL's have calm temperament and approach their problem and family matters/concerns with a composed attitude. Both are also have good relationship with their grandfather's. The male leads are both dependable men and apparently common with the double identity trope. The ML's hold high positions in society but have a complicated distant connection to the palace/imperial family. In short, both dramas are about, double identities (male lead) and business/merchants (female lead).
This paragraph in the original MD book is crazy!!
The male protagonist is a great monk of the fox clan, who glanced at the matchless goddess when he was young, and has never forgotten since then, willing to incarnate as a killing god in the clan, wearing several fake faces on his face, and no one knows his name and true appearance.
The heroine Ji Tanyin, because of her sincere obsession with craftsmen, flew to become a god, and went down to take away the left hand of the male protagonist (originally it was the hand of the god Taihe), although she approached with a purpose, but she also sincerely protected the male protagonist, wanting to wait until he naturally died of old age before taking it.
The male protagonist is sensitive and suspicious, from the very beginning of the female protagonist's appearance, he has already suspected the identity of the female protagonist, and even once accidentally killed the female protagonist's body in the mortal world, but only regretted that she died, patted the ash on her body and left, because he didn't care at that time.
After gradually getting along and getting acquainted, he saw the heroine's brilliant craftsmanship, and was also moved by her sincere enthusiasm, and after the heroine tried her best to protect him and heal his injuries, Genzhong let Tan Yin see his true face and told her his name.
This kind of never caring, to reluctant, ambiguous pulling is simply true.

Another drama with an embattled couple who face intrigues, injuries, and memory loss. The FL mistakes her savior for her husband, while in Dawn is Breaking the FL mistakes the crown prince for her savior and husband to be. Both are costume dramas with an independent minded FL and a very handsome ML.
In both dramas:
- FL loses her memory
- FL is believed to be someone else that ML hates

- ML is powerfull
In ROATF, FL suffers an accident and loses her memory. Unfortunatelly, she gets confunded as ML's evil wife - that ML hates -. With no memories, FL lives as ML's wife and receives everyone's hate, thinking she's the evil wife.
