Truth be said, I watched it solely for Xu Kai. I've always loved his works, and this being a modern setting drama, I just couldn't miss this.

Story : It will test your patience, and reward you for having it . Lemme give a background: ITS NOT A ROMCOM. If you're here for romance, you might be disappointed. But, if you wanna watch a family drama , THIS IS IT. (You would relate to the story much more, if you happen to be Asian (specially south/east))

Initially, first couple of episodes went by really fine . FL's ex seemed so fine to me that i thought why would she ever break up with him , but as the story unfolded it became crystal clear , why? The mom seemed too selfish, intrusive and nagging towards her children , for about half of the drama. But, once you get to know about her past , you just understand her character better. I personally really hated FL's mom for initial half of the drama, but once that mother-daughter scene came around , everything became clear, like the sky clears down after a thunderstorm.

Its an FL centric drama, where the world revolves around her family (read: mother) and her work . On work front , she's a brilliant person who outshines when given the opportunities. She had ample amount of hurdles along her path , but they only made her stronger and unstoppable. In the family , she's a daughter, elder sister and a granddaughter. She is a person with strong character, maturity and sense of responsibility. She's the kind of daughter every parent would wish to have (especially south east asian).
In the first half , there is mostly lots of politics going on in the workfront, and nagging at home for the FL, also her ex is all over the place. I felt the second half of the drama was much more balanced , as we could see the characters for who they truely were, for example, FL's mom became a lot more tolerable (for me), we get to know Zhiming wasn't really a cunning, selfish boss, his past was unfolded in later episodes, FL's workplace became more stable & we could see her hardwork coming to fruition.

Acting : I absolutely loved Kai and Yang zi. All of the cast for that matter have done a really good job. It was my first time watching Yang Zi. Be it the mother daughter confrontation scene , or her grandma's funeral, her performance was so pure and soulful.
Xu Kai's just been amazing like always. Be it being tacky, getting emotional, crying , teasing ,laughing or whatsoever, his expressions are always on the mark. It was great seeing him in a modern drama.

What I feel they missed: Huan and Zhiming's wedding. I wish they could have included that .

Summary :
If you're up for a family drama, with just enough romance to make you smile time to time , you should definitely give this a go. Its beautiful in terms of filial love, paternal love & sibiling's affection portrayed in this drama. I feel it touches upon almost every relatonship one encounters in their life time . Its simply satisfying.
A good watch.
