What drew me to this drama were two things: 1) Liu Xueyi's handsome face and 2) the interesting premise of a single mother and child. In cdrama land, this is super rare! What kept me watching to the end was the pureness of the relationships and the endearing characters. I grew fond of many of them.

Other than that, the drama is average in other departments. It's not great and it's not terrible. It's just fine. The soundtrack is okay but not memorable. The cinematography has no lasting impact but there are sweet and cute scenes. The acting is good enough for what this is: a costume romcom drama.

Overall, this is a sweet and lighthearted drama with typical obstacles in the way of the main couple's love but you watch it because you like the characters and their relationships to one another. It can be boring at times, so again, you have to like the (main) characters and their relationships to be invested and keep watching.

The highlights are Qing Luo and her son Nan'Nan as Qing Luo, though firm on her son, will never let anyone else hurt her child and will go absolutely feral if anyone hurts him. Ye Xiudu and Nan'Nan's relationship is also very adorable as Nan'Nan takes Ye Xiudu as a "pupil" and Ye Xiudu happily indulges him as "Master." And, of course, LiuLi and Haoran's hilarious relationship as Haoran is oblivious to Liuli's obvious affections and Liuli is often exasperated with him and punishes him accordingly (which he deserves because he's hilariously preachy.)
