Really Nice, worth one time watch

I just finished watching this show and it is really good. Very disappointed with the rating as it keeps dropping. Due to this low rating I feel many would not start this show and miss out on it. Please don't miss out on this based on the negative reviews, rather give it a chance.
Show started on very high notes and Overall it was really good.
Its Pros would be:
1. Strong acting from FL, ML and 2ML. They looked and acted to their character really well and you would enjoy every minute they were in the frame. ML timmy Xu is not a very good actor and you could see that from his past works. But here it was covered by the way he understood the character. His overall persona was in the role and you would not complain. FL and 2ML are experienced actors and you could see in their portrayal.
2. Many have complained about the characters. But I liked the growth shown by ML and maturity of FL in the show. ML started as inexperienced rich brat but slowly he became obedient student to keen business man. His way of handling his business was also good, where he dumped his family dirty money and escaped the plans of his rivals smartly. I wonder why everyone is saying he was dumb, when he balanced his family and all the past mistakes from his father well and came out winner. Halfway through the series he was bound by his family and had to marry as per their will. But by the end of this show, he arranged for each and every member in just manner and fulfilled his life dream along with his family business. Thats commendable. FL is a spy trained by ML's rival and she wants to avenge for his family misfortunes. However later she comes across deeper secrets regarding her family. How do you expect her to drop all that for her love. Despite of all this, she has soft corner for ML and continues her love.
3. There are 40 episodes and too many characters who all have their story. Initially it felt long with many new characters getting added. However they all had their ending which was just.
Cons:
1. Few CGI scenes with Airplanes and Port and train station were really bad. I wish they had not included those.
2. Needed more romantic scenes for the lead, especially towards the end. they waited so long to come to this same as we viewers.
Overall, I really liked the show and feel everyone should give it a chance. This is one of the few Cdrama I did not fast forward for any scenes which is quite telling.

Disappointing

I started the show with lots of expectation due to the excellant actors in the cast. But mighty disappointed and frustrated by the time they ended. They had lots of potential with interesting story line and their inclination towards quiry humor. However their story line was bad, with no real concept. Weak weak after week I was expecting some kind of twist which will make sense of what is happening in the show thinking it was building for something big. With actors like Kim Byung chul and lee dong hwi, I felt they could have supported any twist. But the script was so bad, they did not have anything concrete to offer by end of the show. Very disappointed with the high praises with reviews where they mentioned this show as highly entertaining and funny. It was funny maybe for 2-3 episodes however after that it was irritating more. Good actors wasted on this show.

What a pleasant surprise!

I started this show with zero expectation as I was not very impressed with both Song Zuer and Ztao past shows. They both are very average in their acting provess. Infact this show as well, they have acted in their usual way but somehow that works. Ztao clearly is not a good actor but script and director has used him to his best ability and you end up liking him very much. Song Zuer is super cute and witty in her role and suits perfectly. They chemistry is awesome. Also the side characters support the show very well, you will end up liking many of them. Show is equal parts funny and romantic with some really fun moments. Dont Miss this gem. Its rating should be higher than current 8.3.

Worth one time watch

I was little apprehensive to start this show due to low ratings and 40 episodes. However quite happy I started and finsihed this one. Its really good for one time watch, specially compared to other shows which are around this rating. There are quite a few Modern Cdrama who are so bad and they are rated higher to this one. This one has really good acting and story line is also quite fair. There are few cons like the length of drama, they stretched it for 40 episodes, could have cut it down to 30. But otherwise it is quite decent. I would like to highlight the script writer who used lots of banking terms and used those in their story track. It was quite interesting to watch, you just have to give it a chance. Also special mention to Steven Zhang, he is really good actor and did superb job in this role as well. He played a street smart banker who overcomes all challenges in his life to start and sustain his bank. He is totally convincing in his role of street hawker to general manger of bank. His love for FL and its angst clearly shows through the show. Many reviewers have bashed FL and I too felt the same after watching first half of the show. However she changed in the second half and devoted to the ML. It was nice to see this change and complimented to the story. Overall I liked this show and feel everyone should give it one chance atleast.

Wow Wow Wow

This drama is MUST watch for all drama fans. From the story you might think its a cheesy office story but watch is for the actors and the script. They make it so entertaining that I enjoyed it the second time all same.
It comes across as typical Office Romance but its greatest plus is the superb chemistry of Leads. Bai lu and Leo luxi are mazing actors in their other works and together they shine. Its a delight to watch them on same screen. Supporting characters are quite good as well and required for the story. Overall, watch it for the lead couple, you will miss them after the ending.

Gem of a drama

Let me just start by saying that this is one of the few dramas that I have watched without missing a scene. The acting was phenomenally done. So real. And I'm not just talking about the leads. All the characters were so real, not overdone like other dramas. So much chemistry between the main couple. Wallace Chung is such a good actor and his character NYS the same. At the start of series he is shown as tired, gaunt doctor who is a caricature of his old self. He has lots of angst for the FL and shows this occasionally. He has acted superb in these scenes. TJ is acted perfectly by Li Xiao Ran, as cold, mature lady who is not to be bothered by circumstances and continues forward. Sometimes she is frustratingly cold to NYS but if you understand her past them you this is justified.
Special mention to NYS's father. He is authoritative rich guy who is facing ill health. he comes across the bad guy through out the series but somehow grows on your towards the end. His interaction with his grandson ping ping *Super cute* is a delight to watch. Also SFT, second lead in the story, he is shown as warm, calculative person who has hidden motives. He sacrifices everything for his aim and succeeds, but the few scenes in the last episodes has deftly shown the next. Its quite satisfying to watch his part.
Such a beautiful love story and satisfying ending *sigh*. I was anticipating a dramatic ending but they stayed true to the tone and did not make it over the top. And thank god for that as it makes perfect sense to all the characters and their story.

Overall I definitely recommend this drama, you will not regret it.
