Love, Fluff and Stuff.

This story, looking at a single divorced woman who was willing to better herself through her own means, without depending on a man, immediately grabbed my attention. Initially, the main reason behind her bettering herself was for her son, but because the writers chose to not include him throughout most of the drama, for the sake of this review, I’m going to do the same and call it as it is, which, thinking about it now, could have added a juicier take to the newly single divorcee’s life.

The main couple were extremely cute a lot of the time, but there were moments where the age gap didn’t always feel comfortable and made it feel more as if the FL was the ML’s mother, which sounds even more strange considering the relationship the ML had with his own mother. Perhaps it was the director’s intention to remind us of the said age gap, thus using a much younger-looking ML, Terry Liu, who did an exceptional job at playing Cheng Li, I simply wish they would have used a slightly older-looking (not change the age in the script) ML in order to avoid the exact misconception or feeling while watching what should have been heart touching moments.

My favourite character had to be the FL’s best friend, Zhou Quan (Viola Mi), for being bold and continually saying what needed to be said or done. I didn't quite like the dynamic they had chosen for her relationship with Eric (Sky Li), but all in all, she was a rather enjoyable character that added the extra spice and honesty into the drama itself.

Overall, being one of the most unproblematic dramas I’ve seen in a while there was an abundance of fluff and kisses to brighten anyone's mood. Some might find it slow or boring, but that’s exactly what this drama is for, taking a step out of the fast lane and toning it down to the basics.
