Ah so I just blew through this drama even though I usually pace myself. Overall I enjoyed the ride even though it has a few weak spots

What worked for me:
The chemistry between the lead pair: Oh my god, Jasper and Puff together was everything. The long intense looks the lead pair shared were just incredible. I don't find Jasper really handsome per se, but man he sure has something about him that makes you go all aflutter. And the way he looks at her! My internet sleuthing tells me they aren't together but I was convinced there was something between them, looks like it was just great acting,.

The romance: I love mature romances and this fit the bill. We actually find out just why the lead pair fall for each other. I also liked the real world look at what happens when one partner loses sight of what the other needs and becomes pushy. Also like that there is consistency in showing how FL finds her love waning when her fiance refuses to actually listen to her.

The BFF character: Han Kefei was a riot and the actor did a great job (for most parts). I would kill to have a friend like her

The ending: A kind of open ending nonetheless i thought it fit the story line. What i felt lacking was that the FL's 'confession' did not match what we are led to believe regarding the depth of her feelings

What did not work for me
The office plot: As someone who's worked in corporates (although in a different country), the office plot in the middle of the series was just pure cringe. No CEO is going to working that directly on a project all the time! Ugh, took me out of the drama

Uneven build up: The first few episodes were superb but then it got repetitive; everything that had to said was already said, and the lead pairs were just repeating themselves.

Treatment of the ex-girlfriend: This might not be a popular view but the way the way the ML's ex was portrayed was a little unfair. Sure, she went a little unhinged but after 10 years of her caring for him, he just shakes her off? Why not give her the house he bought?
