Fun bickering between female and male lead. Slow burn to love. Comical and witty. Both become each other's strength and back bone.

They have the following similarities:
Forced marriage
Carefree son of a rich family
Bride from a low status family
Smart Female Lead
Spoiled Rich Male Lead

The plot of I've Fallen for you with regards to the relationship progress of the couple is also quite similar at the start. They got married due to the male lead family's bidding. The wife was technically kidnapped, but she ended being treated well in the male lead's household. The husband's parents are also very doting on their new daughter in law. The female lead is skilled in a certain field. She also contributes to the male lead's transformation from being the city's spoiled rich kid, to becoming a great man.

Destined and My Fair Princess share the same actor, Ray Chang, who is righteous and very involved with both plots.

Growing up with MFP it was such a fun drama with historical tropes with multiple couples. Destined has a main couple but feels like a combination of all the couples of MFP. The FL in Destined resembled Zi Wei at the beginning, educated but lack confidence and the strength to fight but grows in confidence like Xiao Yan ZI. It's as if Zi Wei didn't become a princess but a smart business women who cares and tactical. The ML in destined resembles the fun and energy of Ray Chang's character in MFP but has immediate character growth becoming more like Fu Er Kang with his matureness and smarts.

The drama both have court drama, romance, comedy, action and so much more. I grew up with MFP and is one of my joys. Destined is the modernized version which shine the greatest part of the brotherhood, youth and love.
