Very cliche, not memorable yet cute and fluffy
If you are into dramas that keep you on your toes and have waiting for the next scene, this is not the drama for you. But if you are up for a storyline you have seen over and over again with lots of kisses in the romance department. Then this is the drama for you. The acting was good. So if you love adorable,cute, fluffy, steamy kiss romance, this is the drama for you.In terms of character development not so much effort in that effort.
Cliche√

Same old same old
Nothing new.. same old same old childish tactics.... male chauvinist pig eventually in love... and then in between the story there are just plain silly no common sense misunderstanding.... so standard text book plot... was it a textbook they must use.. ? ? ? ..Then there is always a b%tch in between them... ? ? ? ?.I just hope Chinese writers can have better and new ideas.... so bl**dy lame.
It seems that it is pretty standard that 24 episodes are the minimum.... ? ? ?...
boring.. boring..

Carefree and light hearted drama
You can easily get all the plot from the trailer, but it is so easily engaging that it doesn't really matter. The leads are really good, the level of sweetness is very high and you can really catch the idea of a naive woman in love with a more business-like man who soften along the way.There's the neverending list of stupid falls for the FL, but it's all well built to entertain the viewer and make me fell more confident realizing that even in my dream i could't be this clumsy. Go watch it, it will surely ease a tough day.

HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP. SWEETNESS. DESPITE CLICHES, LEARNING WHAT TRUE LOVE IS
This drama caught me totally by surprise. I started it out of curiosity because of the MV, and i ended addicted to it. Even though it differs from the original novel, it was very very good. It's the classic contract marriage Cinderella clichè, but with some surprises and not totally clichè. I really liked the leading couple. Wang Zi Qi as Yin Sichen was OUTSTANDING, a cold and overbearing CEO... and a rolling cute bear. I really loved his character development. He does not change completely, but he has no fear to show his weak side anymore. He's the overbearing CEO, but at the same time the jealous and a bit immature adult man deeply in love.Wanyg Yuwen as Gu Xi Xi was simply perfect. She's not strong and not so weak. She learns to be stronger and brave in love.
Their chemistry is really eyecatching and overwhelming. I don't complaing about XiXi's style, since everyone forgets her background.
I quite liked the second pairing, they are cute in their own way but very very at side. Sichen's assistand steals the thunder when he shows, he's charming.
I really hated both second leads. They are very obsessive. Mo Zixin is an obsessive stalker who does not give up, and hides his manipulative side behind a facade of the gentleman. How awful. Ran Xiwei is even worse. Obsessed like crazy, she has no shame in using tricks.
GRANDMA AND MOTHERS FOR THE BEST AHAHAHAHAHA
I really loved it, well-made clichè are so perfect to watch.
Really recommended if you want something light, heartwarming, but with a wink of important topics.

Chokingly cheesy, but rewatchable
This is kinda drama that I would binge-watch on spare time because the story is so light, I wouldn't have to think. But hear me the pros & cons...Cons:
1. Super cheesy love story.
2. Love chemistry between couples are not great.
3. Predictable
4. The soundtrack is typical. Not kinda song that makes you eagerly want to collect
Pros:
1. FL has talent & many positive traits. I always cringe when C drama brought a pretty-do nothing-dumb-always mess up kinda FL. But Xixi pictures a working girl with on point thinking and solves her mistakes with dignity
2. ML could act cutish. Most drama pictures ML as a cool-godly man from start to end. But Sichen could act childish once learned Xixi loves him back.
3. Female take serious lead here. From XiXi, Ruona, Grandma, Mrs. Yin senior, even the scheming XiWei. Makes you nod for the women.
In the end, OWGT is light and enjoyable with a mug of coffee or bunch of popcorn.

Great acting from Male Lead
Storyline wise we have nothing new here. We saw it before: contract marriage and you fall in live. Nothing new.However, I surprisingly really really enjoyed it.
I really love the male lead’s acting skills.
I love how I can see his indifference gradually turn into attraction then internal denial to falling in love and finally acknowledging his love.
It made the love from his side feel very intense and real!!
I cannot say so for the female lead. I’m not saying her acting skills are bad, just that couldn’t feel the love from her side as strong as from the male lead.
I also love how when they are finally truly together, there is actually a strong trust and healthy relationship!!
For me, that is actually divine.
I love how there is that trust but also how every time the antagonist girl try to force herself on the ML, he isn’t pitying on her or going easy. He full on stops her!! I really admired that indifference he has for her.
I feel this is one of the reason why the drama really captivated me. He meant only business from her and made it clear and had no sort of pity or compassion for her. His looks for her was very very cold. Yet when he looks at the FL, you feel drown in love. I will definitely watch more drama of his♥️♥️

Definitely a must watch RomCom
The drama is highly recommend to watch. RomCom cohabitation. ??The Ml is experiencing spring time haven't had his first love yet. Cold and narcissistic but strangely nice. And wen this little creep called L O V E came hitting him he became Little childish and silly in front of his CRUSH to get her attention.
Stealer of the series Granny/nana she is really funny and adorably cute sweet and nice. Matchmaker for the ML FL. She could be really silly plotting something for the couple clever nana.
The only thing looks really bad is the 1st female support third party pooper she acts psycho and crazy about the ML. Well duh, the ML FL are still married legally even they're living contracts. Throughout the series shes annoying.

A recommended romcom drama to watch
First ,this is contract marriage based romcom drama. I prefer these type of dramas. In this drama actually the cast do a excellent job except for second lead couple's boy. He does a good job but he can't express emotions well. He seems to be more childish than the second female lead (his girlfriend ).Second, I don't usually find faults in dramas. If the plot is nice then I watch it. Because dramas are for enjoying and mind relaxing.So even if there are faults it won't matter. So I don't mind what others say about this drama. According to me the story is very good and the cast have nailed it. Specially Wang Zi Qi and Wang Yuwen. They are really great and have a superb chemistry. I wish that they would get another modern drama again as main leads. And the guy who acts as yin sichen's secretary ,he is also great.
As an overall , I recommend this drama to watch because it's worth to watch.

Quite a good watch- though the typical contract marriage story.
The cast is excellent. Love the couple's chemistry.The story is nothing new- cliched romance of a rich guy and normal girl's contract marriage, down to a childhood second lead friend, and a jealous second female lead.
Atleast here, the guy realises he loves the girl pretty early.
There are no plot loopholes, the girl is smart, not silly (like some Chinese dramas make the female leads to be).
It's good as a one time watch if you want something typical and light to watch.
I'm on episode 12 at the moment, waiting to see how the rest of the story goes. So far, it doesn't look like I'll be dropping this drama in between.

Cliche to perfection
Its genuinely a really good drama,It felt like I was watching a classic, a good CEO drama never gets old.
Once a cliche is well written, casted and executed, it turns into a beautiful drama like this one. All the tropes were there, and if you're a long term drama watcher like myself, it feels so good to finally come across such a well executed cliche. I loved it and if you're one for romance, this drama is not short of it. I mean the kisses were the highlight.
I noticed most people reviewed this drama based on the fact that its "cliche" but I think that is what makes it so special.
take a leap of fate and WATCH THIS CLICHE!!!!

Booorrriiinnnggg
Oh my goodness.....spare yourself some time to breathe and exercise - just skip this downright boring, irritating, annoying, silly, childish drama.I promise you I try to be very very fair with c- dramas, give them full benefit of the doubt, allow for a lot of nonsense. But most of the c dramas go beyond these limitations.
They are either over dressed or under dressed, women acting like 12-year olds, dressed like them also.
No chemistry. Yes there are intimate scenes but they are lifeless.
The story just drags on....that is if you can even call them stories or just a mish mash of clichéd crap.
The FL is so mediocre......aaargh......

I dunno what kinda drugs people who hyped it were on, but I evidently did not receive my portion
This drama was hyped only because of nine-year-olds who happen to be hopeless romantics for the slightest display of love and affection on screen. Aside from the plot being trashy, this drama is about contractual marriage, meaning boundaries were set in the contract but were they respected at all? No. Was there consent while stepping the boundaries? HELL NO. Was the female lead manipulated and coerced into a scheme by the male lead to get into the contractual marriage? Yes. Is that okay? No. Biggest wtf. I watched this drama, so you won't. Find you something better.Was this review helpful to you?
