Refreshing modern mini drama, good acting & chemistry but bad ending
I love Lu Yan Qi's performance in Destined to Meet You so was excited to see her in the trailer of this series. I am also familiar with Yan Zi Xian's work having seen his performance in The Revenge of Begonia and Estranged Fall in Love. I think Yan Zi Xian looks like Jackson Wang with certain styling.
What I liked:
1) Acting - Lu Yan Qi and Yan Zi Xian were really good in their roles, individually and a couple. Lu Yan Qi had great comedic timing in a few scenes. When Xia Tian cried, I felt her pain for example when she came clean to the grandpa. Both of them seemed to have an ease/comfort with each other because their on-screen banters looked so natural. It's nice to see Yan Zi Xian smile and laugh.
2) Romance - Most importantly there was amazing chemistry between Lu Yan Qi and Yan Zi Xian and a good balance of push and pull. I could feel sexual tension between Ji Cheng Xuan and Xia Tian especially in the bathtub scene. There was plenty of kissing, hugging and hand-holding.
3) Writing - I love that the writer debunked cliche tropes e.g. kissing without permission. I enjoyed most of the arcs.
What I disliked:
1) The ending - WHY end the series with that scene???
2) Qin Yue - It's nice to see Ni Han Jin acting together with Lu Yan Qi again. However his character was underdeveloped.
Favourite scene:
When Cheng Xuan set up a romantic scene & confessed his love to Xia Tian. The banter between them aaawww
