I loved this drama way more than I thought I would - I picked it up randomly because I hadn't seen a Chinese drama in a while and I needed something feel good to watch between all these dark Korean dramas I had been watching on Netflix.

Instead, I fell into a hole of a cute and quirky drama about two motivated career driven people who reunited after a few decades of being separated as children, falling in love with one another, and learning what is more important in their lives - each other, or their careers. (The answer is one another). And that is basically what this series was about. It was a lot of fluff, but for the first time I was okay with it. It was fun watching them fall in love while helping motivate one another pursue their lifelong dreams - Cong Rong wanting to be like her father, a lawyer, and help defend people who couldn't, and Shao Qing a successful surgeon, saving people's lives.

I loved the writing as every character was motivated by their professions, but even more passionate about their friendships (to a point where I was confused about their working hours as they kind of left whenever they wanted) and were all just extremely clever at cracking joke and being sassy. Especially, Shao Qing and his quick tongue and his sexual humor and turnaround time making us feel like we had the dirty mind. Honestly, he was not my type, until half way through when he just started teasing and romancing Cong Rong, he became my type.

It was also interesting how this series went back and forth - it seemed like there was more of a drama story with Cheng Cheng and Wen Rang where I thought they were the mains. And I would watch it.. when they were on good terms, it was swoony... but when they were on bad terms...I would get emotional.

Overall, I wish I could express how much loved this drama and given it an easy 10/10, but as I was thinking about it, this was all really well done fluff. It was extremely good, but there was no reason why this had to be 28 episodes. It got to a point where, I loved watching their journey, but there really wasn't much of a plot to want to binge it. Yes, they pulled on all our heart strings as Shao Qing was SUCH A ROMANTIC, but there really wasn't a solid plot. They attempted to add a second love interest, Lawyer Shangguan Yi, but it got to a point where we fell in LOVE with him, but he had ZERO chance of winning Cong Rong and it made me feel extremely bad for this dude. Plus, I also felt bad for Zhong Zhen who became this unnecessary comedic relief who always showed up at the wrong time, and would get playfully scolded by the two mains. And it got to a point, where I felt a little uneasy... even knowing that it was supposed to be playful and helping him grow into a better person and doctor.

I convinced myself, that this was an example of many smaller plots in a drama as the high up plot, was Cong Rong acing her internship and getting a job (which happened in the early middle) and Cong Rong & Shao Qing reuniting as lovers (which also happened in the early middle when she got her job). Everything after, I believe, is every drama watcher's desire of finding out what happened after they got together and fell in love... like a part two or epilogue. As for me... I like a good epilogue, but not all the time. I fell off a little when Cong Rong got her new job as she was just fantastic and the fluff of their relationship began and then we got to see the ups and downs of Cheng Cheng and Wen Rang's relationship that could have happened in unison with Cong Rong & Shai Qing's as most dramas do, but no. Then it all came together at the end, and I sobbed from happiness as well as from the credit scene at the end. Besides the little things, for a fluff piece, this was very well done and I enjoyed myself for the most part :)

Completely recommend if you want something light and romantic.
