A very good drama that incorporates many modern ideas. It gives an accurate portrayal of women in the workplace in a patriarchal society. It also shows the conflicts between several modern and traditional values, and does a good job resolving them.

The actors have great chemistry. Qinlan gives a great performance, as always, and brings much depth to our main character. Dylan's acting is much improved from his previous works. Both are a joy to watch and it's obvious they work well together.

The writing is a bit lazy at times but not enough to be an issue. The overall plot flows very well. Definitely worth a watch.

I love it so much.... Ahhhh Dylan has come a long way from Meteor Garden with this one! I see him in a more mature way with this show. Really enjoyed the film as far as the chemistry and genuineness from Dylan and the actress. She is beautiful and acts really well.

To be honest, I've never watched Chinese drama before but after seeing the trailer, I thought I'd give it a try.

Very good drama. I like the performance of the leading actress. She is actually 41 years old but still so beautiful! I also like her performance in Story of Yanxi Palace and it's great to see she can be the leading actress in the TV series....

I love so so much.

Lovely love story with believable characters. Great depiction of corporate struggles along with typical A**h0*£s trying to mess things up. Beautiful leading lady and cute young boy accompanied by great supporting actors.

I must say this is the most realistic drama I've watch so far. The story was simple but yet very captivating. Truly amazing how relatable it is. Just go watch it, will not be disappointed. Purely came acrossed it by chance. I must say I'm truly happy I did.

Qin Lan alone is enough reason to watch this - at 41 she is very believable as an unusually beautiful 32-year-old, and I liked the calm, rational way she dispatched problems with patriarchal superiors at work, all with a smile on her face. The story does a nice job of discussing/portraying the issues of independence and obligations of marriage partners, and also "May-December" romances. Somewhere in there was the statement that the most important goals in life regardless of everything else were to be with someone you love, and to do work you love. The former relates to the May-December issue; if two people truly love each other, should they let societal views of age difference matter? One final comment: I thought the actress playing Xiao's mom was really great; her part was very touchingly written and very touchingly played. Kudos! Unfortunately I don't see her listed in the cast here.
