Great Romance between Independent Woman and Cynical Man Ruined in Last Episodes
If I reviewed the first 35 episodes it'd be 9/10 or even 10/10, so I'll focus on the first part to keep the balance.
Qin Shi is an independent woman and a brilliant lawyer in her mid 30s, working for one of the best lawyer offices in the country.
Yang Hua is a smart, cynical, unemployed man of 28. I saw in the comments that some people thought he suffered from social anxiety. He didn't. We are shown on many occasions that he didn't really have a problem interacting with others. At times he was even more at ease than his outspoken wife i.e. while meeting foreign investors for the first time. He has no problem with irony and reading between the lines. He can also express himself very clearly whenever he wishes. He also says himself that he doesn't have a problem with crowds. But he simply doesn't want to meet others. He thought that meeting people was a waste of time, which is typical for cynics. Cynicism comes from disappointment in humanity, and that's what happened to Yang Hua. Personally, I loved the character because we usually get the shy boys or arrogant CEOs. A cynic in a drama is a gem!
The two very different people enter a fake marriage, but at the same time decide to create a wonderful romantic relationship. And that's what really makes the first 35 episodes so good. They are honest towards each other, straightforward, mutually supportive, looking for common solutions, and very very loyal. It's really rare to see such a couple in a drama.
On top of that they are in awe with each other's values. Yang Hua finds his wife arguing a point extremely sexy, and Qin Shi feels grateful for her husband's views on equality.
Now, do you know this feeling when you are anxious watching a drama, but not because you're afraid the Leads won't end up together, only because you see that, in order to write some angst, the authors ruin a character so much that they might not be able to redeem him?
That's what happened in this drama. The honest and straightforward Yang Hua suddenly begins to lie and play tricks to make the FL jealous. And the effect was so bad I rather feared than wished for a happy ending. And I'm really a forgiving person when it comes to all the usual plot bunnies in dramas as long as all the issues with an ex etc. can be written off as a misunderstanding. Here however, the ML creates the misunderstandings on purpose and later pretends the FL just misunderstood. It really is that bad!
So by all means: watch 35 episodes, and then skip to the last 10 minutes of the 40th episode. The ending is nice and sweet only if you haven't seen what happened in the meantime!
