A Personal & Professional Growth Journey
PLOT: This drama tells the story of a young girl (Gao Yang) from a rich family. She has a habit of spending her days shopping, which makes her an addict. Her father's business suddenly goes bankrupt. From that moment on, Gao Yang will have to face the difficulties of life.
What I really liked in this drama is that the hero Yan Li helps the heroine to grow up. She learns to save money, she finds a job and solves the tasks she is assigned with excellent results. She even discovers her passion: fashion design. I appreciated that the heroine was not a weak and helpless woman. She is intelligent, good at what she does. She slowly discovers her qualities and strengths. On several occasions she helped the two male leads, if not saved the situation with her observations on fashion. So, yes, she is naive about life but she is not brainless.
A LITTLE DOWNSIDE: the plot concerning the heroine's father, his company's bankruptcy and Yan Li’s aunt was not resolved until very late in the story and was almost abandoned in the last episodes, as if they had forgotten to deal with this part of the plot.
SECOND MALE LEAD: Li Ming Che. For the first half of this drama, he had more screen time than the hero. This didn’t really help building a romance between the main couple. In this drama, you will clearly have a Second Lead Syndrome. Li Ming Che is really kind. He likes giving gifts to others. He is always smiling and helping.
SECOND FEMALE LEADS. We can consider that there are 2 strong women surrounding our heroine:
1. President Ye. For once, she is not an evil snake. She is in love with Director Li Ming Che. She is a strong and independent woman. She can be very demanding of the heroine, but it is all acceptable for the professional matters. (Actually, it is her secretary, on her own accord, who plotted against the heroine). As the story progresses, we get to know President Ye and end up liking her.
2. Designer Huang Nan Yan. She is in love with the hero Yan Li. This woman is not a vixen but she still tries some plots to separate the main couple.
I loved the secondary couple! Their relationship evolved in a smooth and believable way.
SLOW BURN ROMANCE: For me, this story focused much more on the personal and professional development of the heroine than on the romance. Indeed, the hero appears quite rarely.
➡️ In summary, I had a great time watching this drama. I really enjoyed the personal and professional development of the heroine. Seeing her find her way and her place in society was fun!
