More comedic than expected
Zhi Fei presents as a cold boss in charge and tries his hardest to project a certain image about himself at all times. However, on more than one occasion when Zhi Fei is at home and he's happy or excited, he transforms into a giant goofball. His dance moments will come on unexpectedly and if you don't burst out laughing at least once, I'd be surprised.
I think why a lot of people don't appreciate the FL in this drama is that they are expecting her to be the helpless damsel in a "cold ceo/warm woman" typical drama, but Huahua is actually the more dominant one and takes charge of the Zhi Fei's life pretty much from their first meeting, and honestly though he says he doesn't like it he very quickly adapts to it and even comes to crave the attention and care she lavishes on him. When she suddenly disappears he can't focus until she's back.
The secondary couple should have gotten a little more screen time, but I like their storyline and I love that there was a moment that talked about consent during one of their scenes. So many dramas often skip that or worse try to make it seem that it's the normal thing to do when you have one drunk and one sober person. This drama didn't get too heavy handed in the message but at least it was spoken out loud, and I, for one, appreciated that.
The trio of gossipy secretaries are a DELIGHT! You think this is going to be that standard and overused group who are malicious and vicious, but in reality they instantly are on Team Huahua the minute they meet her!! They ship the leads so hard core and I love their interactions among themselves and with Zhi Fei and Huahua.
The one woman character that is always obsessed with the ML but never had a chance was mostly comically in her failed attempts to gain Zhi Fei's attention and towards the end she's still stubborn but obviously not an obstacle or really even a blip on ZF's radar.
There wasn't a ton of skinship in this drama, but you have to remember their romance took awhile to fully start and it is literally the very first romantic relationship either of them have had, especially with Huahua coming from a more emotionally and physically controlled as well as more conservative background it took awhile for her cylinders to get firing, if you know what I mean.

The writers really didn't know what to do with the little brother character, they tried to make him into an evil mastermind in one part of the drama but in the overall plot they wanted to show that he was a lost little boy who just hasn't grown up yet. ZhiRan is very smart when it comes to business and people, but when it comes to relationships and understanding that love is multiplied not hoarded...he has a lot of growing up to do in that department. I felt his redemption arc was kind of out of left field and I thought it dominated the final episode too much. That screen time could have been given to the leads and the second couple with better effect.
I give the overall drama a 9/10 but honestly give the final episode only a 5/10
