Something new u might like <3
I eventually decided to give it a try because I like Aaron in 'professional single' hence I wanna see more of his project! I have watched up to eps 24, and surprisingly enjoyed it (even though it's quite angst hiks)! At first, it was a bit awkward indeed, but hey! It's not that bad as others said though! Its storyline is basically about a domineering CEO who has a strange superpower that allows him to control others, besides reading someone's mind. However, he couldn't use his power upon FL. The 'CEO' stuff is not only a title or cover, but they genuinely implied basic business such as strategy marketing, how to maintain a good price to compete with other brands, etc.FL herself is a bold, stylish (her fashion lure my eyes ngl) as well as tough woman. FYI, ML and FL were high school mates. They're best friends, moreover, ML had a crush on her back then. Due to one misunderstanding, FL cut ties with ML. Time skip, they encounter each other once again. They keep bickering yet I see he still deeply in love with her.
Aside from that, this drama is even funnier than I imagined, let alone side characters lmao!! I like the bromance thing between ML and his bestie (the doctor) as he's so hilarious :D
Lastly, don't think so highly about cdramas, just let it flow, then you'll find your own peace. If it's not here, find your kind of comfort dramas out there without messing up in the comment section. Luv! <3 *purple heart*

I just can’t do it anymore
I’m not one to write a bad review just to pick something apart. Unfortunately this is the drama that just has everything I dislike from recent popular tropes etc.I didn’t think the actors are inherently bad. I think the characters are badly written and don’t give them a lot to work with. They feel shallow even if they have background info and some “character development”.
The main couple massively lacks chemistry unfortunately. Both are good looking people but there is no spark between the characters. It felt very forced. The other two-ish couples are odd. I skipped over the doctor and assistant very often and I would have skipped over the Yinan + FL’s best friend if it wasn’t important to some of the plot.
The super power just felt very extra and unnecessary to the plot eventually. The show in general just fizzled out for me. The beginning was rocky and I don’t mind flash backs but it was uncoordinated and awkward sometimes. I think I expected better editing or production maybe.
It’s just a very rough, under produced Chinese drama that falls flat for me. In all transparency, I made it to episode 20 (out of 24) and had been skipping so much or watching on 1.5 speed, that is realized I really didn’t care how it all ended.
On to something new I guess.
If you curious, watch the first five or so episodes and see how it had you feeling.

No re-watch value for me..
I was curious with what kind powers did ML have. After watching the first four or five episodes, I was kinda annoyed with the FL. What happened between them? What's so sinister that ML was treated like shit..Actors were new faces to me but it doesn't matter, as long as they can act well.. Sadly, there's only a little chemistry between them. I don't think it's the actors fault though, I think it's the poorly written script..
It was a miracle that I was able to finish the whole show. I'll stand with my observation, this show is a bit poorly written but still entertaining to watch.
No rewatch value for me, but has good OST though..

superpower male lead to the rescue? the damsel in distress
Disclaimer! slight biases review because I wasnt fond of the actress who played the female lead. sorry she looks kinda botched up and ugly. I can't believe she is born in 98, for some reason she seems a lot older. Her character is quite annoying. She has a mary sue , naive, spoiled rich brat attitude. She takes charge of her dad's company because he has fallen ill in the hospital. She knows nothing about company managements and made a vow in 100 days to make the. company better. So the female lead doesnt have a choice but lives in the same house as the lead. The male lead developed a superpower after an accident when he was young. During their high school year the female lead steps into stop being from bulling the male lead. The male lead uses his powers to knock down the bullies and also wipes her memory of that incident. Fast forward to the current times, the female lead absolutely despises the male lead for messing up her confession of love to the second male lead. She woke up drunk next to the male lead and missed out on confessing to the second male lead. But in order to help her company, she lives with the male lead.Slowly they begin to develop feelings.They have really good kissing scenes! but the song in the beginning shows its all already so its nothing really special. It's definitely cute! The third pairing is cute too, the doctor friend and the secretary. I could care less about the second lead, he's so ugly! He does look like a high school boy haha! Also I didnt like the female lead's best friend.
Anyways... there is always an evil dude trying get revenge... Why cant this be a simple fluff love story.

Everyone hated Yin Nan ke ;)
A light, easy-to-watch romance office drama, from enemies to lovers theme. It’s good and short, so the pace was quite fast.I honestly did not really like the FL Song Qing Chun.. yes she has some moral principles of yes means yes and no means no. But how does she go for a business dealing to see a client, in short torn shorts, with two huge whole on her thighs, and wearing an off shoulder low cut top? Yes women are free to wear what they want, but there has to be some level or professionalism and decency when working. And how can you close a business deal if you beat your client in a snooker game? So shady... is this how they do business in China?
Also, she clearly liked the ML already, but still flirting with other men and insulting and being mean to ML. Their romance and love development does eventually get better towards the second half. ML has been in love with her for many years, so he’s consistent and does many many romantic things for her, including saving her life on a number of occasions.
Of course I’m sure everyone hated Qin Yin Nan, which was FL first love. He lies, two-times, does shady business to get ahead. Tang Yuan his gf (also FL best friend) was such a pity. No back bone, doesn’t stand up for her own dignity and pride. She clearly knew QYN liked SQC but still wanted to be his gf, and when all the lies came to light, still wanted to stay with him and not break off. PLEASE WOMAN... have some self worth!! Couldn’t take all their scenes.. gave me lots of angst haha.
The last episode was a bit of a confusion... [SPOILER]: They led us to believe he died- surgery failed. But the wife never claimed the body? No funeral? Already suspected he’s kept alive somewhere. Four years later true enough, he wakes up and she was expecting him finally.. I’m like what?? She knew he didn’t die? Sigh.. [END SPOILER]
Anyhow, it was quite emotional during the last 6 episodes... I cried here and there. All the usual tropes, very predictable, a little angst here and there, the good guys always win, and the romance and PDA are pretty good ;) A good watch for a romance Chinese drama.

Random disgusting plot twist
I liked it until about episode 15/16 where we see a flashback of the fl passed out and about to be raped, her “ best friend” sees , takes a picture and leaves. no trying to stop it, no calling for help, all because the man was someone she liked. That is a bit too much of a plot twist, misunderstanding for what I thought was a light drama. I don’t normally watch such aggressive story lines anymore and that gave me a nightmare about being stabbed. I might finish the whole series just to see some justice done, but it’s feeling like a drop cause I don’t know if it’s worth it, knowing the next 6 episodes are supposed to be a roller coaster. But the plot twist really made no sense because the person who drugged her was someone she already had a crush on, obviously drugging someone is never necessary but I really don’t get where they were going with that. The best friend and the drugger stayed in her life and lied to her face every day for the next 4 years where the present day drama unfolds. The best friend stays in love with the drugger and degrades herself when she finally gets to be in a real relationship with him and the guy well as you expect continues to like and do shady things.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Love and war this both are part of our life like this drama
At first I was watching this drama I feel like boring but later there was the meaning of love with every struggle.The money and reputation is not every thing my friends.
If you love someone with your heart then there will the win of love only. What ever struggle come, how many time you fight but you listen to your heart.
This series is like this some how there was the struggle for the female lead because her father was admit and company come under crisis.
But later she meet her past love but there was some misunderstanding to the female lead but later they learn to leave together and they become the real couple
But my friends there is super power word was there.
Listen you cannot win the love by super power until you love fully by heart.
Some thing we have seen in this series that male lead is now on danger because villain get his secret but that was late because the female lead was fell in love.
But there was an emotional part where the male get hospitalise for more than 5 year but the female lead never leave her hope the man Was still there in her heart and suddenly one day the god give us the biggest surprise in you life
The 5 love which was in complete at last its get completed and female lead win his biggest award in her life.
If you take the love at beautiful way then it's a very wonderful world
At last I will thanks youku. Please bring like this drama.

Mismatch
Could have been another actress. FL looks more fitting an antagonist. When they ML and FL are together I dont feel any chemistry at all. I’m surprised in the story ML totally fell over heels with her. FL to me is not FL material at all. Her looks is a dead giveaway. The 2nd ML looks more like a high school boy than a lawyer. Another mismatch with the 2nd FL. Even the doctor looks too young to be his character. Such a waste. I think even if the story is not too good but if the actors who portrayed were well and evenly matched it could have a more favorable review.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

This is my opinion hehe
I found out that there are some reviews and comments that are not favour to this drama but we are also many who really like this series.Honestly I didn't expect much about this drama, I just found it out in Youtube's recommendation and saw Aaron Deng so I watched it. I'm not that fond of the FL at first but after watching the whole series, I found her really good and cute. The story is from misunderstanding to helping each other to love to really sad and painful moments and to love (I don't know if you get it but that's how I describe it).
The thing I liked about this is that our ML is so persistent, even FL has crush on the other guy his love never waved, and he's really caring towards our FL. He is protective but I just don't like that he doesn't want her seeing him in bad condition because I think that if you are sick, your lover should be the one to be by your side. Our FL is capable and strong, even though he failed to see that Yinan is the evil and ML is her angel, she is not that weak girl. Our FL is a rookie but she really did well on this drama, same as Aaron Deng of course. I also liked the second couple, they are funny, cute, and supportive to our main leads. I think that Yi Nan got the punishment he needs.
The saddest part of this drama is that when he faked his death which is I don't like it because I've cried because of it and FL got hurt more than she could, if he just honestly tell him that he's in comma then it's better so that she could take care of her. Maybe I can't take that part anymore because the previous drama I watched is quite the same where they also separated because of the guys sickness for the reason that the guy doesn't want the girl to see him suffer.
The only unnecessary plot here is that the appearance of Yu Man Ting, I don't think her part is necessary, maybe they thought to make our FL jealous and to realise her feeling but I still don't think that's needed.
Honestly, this is not a perfect drama but I found it really good, it revolves about misunderstandings, LOVE, career/jobs, ML's superpower (or can be considered as his sickness also), friendship, etc.
I don't think this is not wort it, I think that this is really good, I binge watched it til 5 am in the morning. I really want to recommend this to everyone but I know we have different interest so try and watch it, drop if you don't like it but if you like it, then ENJOY!

I am going to this review on specific certain aspect of the drama that I want to talk about whether it is a dislike or like. - PROGRESS: To explain to people who are considering watching this drama, it is pretty much a misunderstanding enemies to lovers. And because of that has to those who like enemies to lover, the process is hatred, tolerate, okay, lover. There is a process to get it to it if it a good drama or even book. And for this drama I personally felt like it started off with hatred but by the 3rd episode I felt like they were already ish comfortable with one another like for what the misunderstanding was, I would have not reacted the way the FL lead did. So it went hatred, comfortable, and then like a really long stalemate and 1 scene (bath scene) that was like "maybe I dont like SML", stalemate, then straight to confession, and to those who have watch we know what happen after confession. So I felt like the progress was shown very weakly.
- CHEMISTRY/ACTING: I don't think they had insane good chemistry, but I think they had decent. But the reason why I feel like their chemistry wasn't good was mainly because the scenes didn't give them that chance too. Yes we got that really cute confession and the cuddling and everything but where I saw the most chemistry was the video vlog they did near the end, like please the broccoli information was really cute and I think that was because it was natural. I think the rest of the drama was full of the business aspect which goes into what I said earlier I think if you focus a lot on one aspect you'll lose in another. I don't have much to say because I didn't really have a big problem
- ENDING/PARALLELS: I know that mainly people have opinions about the ending personally, yeah I probably would have left it as a sad ending because that just makes sense to me, however I do think that how amnesia wasn't necessary, it was just another plot to add, however I do like how it reconnected to the beginning of the story on how he made her forget the memory. And when he forgot the memory they go through pretty much a recap of everything and its all really nice parallels that I really love. I LOVE PARALLELS. However again I think the progress of him RELIKING her after the memory loss wasn't shown like we had the bed hand holding lap scene to show that maybe he liked her again but that was it.
- OTHERS: I skipped over most of the FL best friend's scenes mainly because it just didn't interest me that much tbh, however I watch most of ML best friend's scene mainly for him. Even though a lot of people have stuff to say about him, I found him cute, look wise, there definitively were moments where I wanted to punch him.
If you are considering watching this drama, give it shot and dm or let me know your opinions on what I have to say about it :).

A romantic drama, embellished with an ML with super power.
THE PLOT:A love triangle in a trio of high school students, separated by a "trick", meets again 7 years later in the business world. Economic rivalries, betrayals, corruption, intrigues, power struggles & shenanigans. Will the 2 leads succeed in overcoming misunderstandings, building a couple and saving their businesses?
ACTING:
I don't like FL (Zhang Xi Ye) at all, who looks like a "Barby doll", and is also expressionless. Poor acting skills. But at the end of the 15th ep., you get used to it...
Fortunately, there is Deng Chao Yuan (the ML) who holds the whole story on his shoulders. I also really like 2CL and the solid friendship between the ML and his doctor friend.
Zhou Rui (the 3ML and one of the "villains") is perfect in his sneaky persona... We hate him!
BUGS :
As soon as the CL is really formed, the tone becomes dramatic (even melodramatic:)
- The villains become more perverse ("Dramaland")
- the top is the so-called death of the ML! What widow would agree to believe in the death of her husband without seeing the body, without having a death certificate, without worrying about a funeral?
- Why do Asian screenwriters always write endings 3 to 5 years later? Nobody do not come out unscathed from 5 years of coma, even with the progress of medicine!! Is it to praise patience? Highlight the ability to live alone? I confess that I do not understand this so repetitive plot...
To conclude, the production is excellent, the OSTs are good, the story is decent despite the bugs (if you are a few indulgent).
So you'll have a great time with Deng Chao Yuan if you like romantic dramas, but I doubt I'll ever rewatch it because it's not memorable either.

Bland
Most of the casts' acting was good, ost forgettable, but the story was bland. The premise was interesting, but poorly executed. There is no real chemistry between the leads up to episode 15, with the FL being portrayed as selfish, ungrateful, spoiled, and downright hateful to the ML. Nothing really shown in the flashbacks, ML's history/backstory (has psychic abilities, was the smart kid in high school, attended college with her, and was taken in by her dad to live with them), or in present to explain his undying love towards the fl. The rest of the main cast, apart from the FL's friend and the SML, were entertaining and likeable. The main story only started to get somewhat interesting in episode 14. The side stories and the fun bromance between the handsome ML and his friend keeping me watching more than the so-called romance between the leads. Honestly hated the FL until she finally stood up for the ML at a press conference to keep him from resigning from the project. There is no growth to the leads' characters, their history is limited to brief flashbacks that explain next to nothing.Instead they apologize to each other after she finally investigates the incident she blamed him for for over 4 years and suddenly she's jealous around other women and acting shy/cutesy around him. The FL has problems acting sad, caring, genuinely sorry, or loving, it came across really insincere and stiff. Pretty much only nailed anger/hate/jealousy, proud/arrogant. The rest of the cast did the best with their parts and carried the show without her. Definitely not worth rewatching as i had to play it at 1.25 x speed to keep from being annoyed or from dropping.
