• No matter how busy ML is, when FL was aboard, no matter how busy he is, he never forget to call FL once a week
• ML seems to take his distance from (A) and remain close to FL, even if it's too early to take conclusions

ML is cold and aloof (as usual). But he takes responsibility seriously. So yes, he's always on the FL's side (since she's his fiance) . He's aversive to the emotion 'love' due to his family environments. So he'd rather clings to his belief in emotionless marriage.

FL is amazing. She's actually the top-notch intelligent and awesome bai fu mei. But all the people in her circle (except her 2 bffs) thought she's ditzy, fool and arrogant. She put on a brave face, but she's very insecure, and long to be loved by her closed ones.

ML & FL are not celebrities, but they have some involvement with the showbiz. The villainess is a celebrity, and she keeps entangling the leads in hot search.

Many drama backfired on the villainess (there's no true villain here, except the Jiang family).

I like how the ML's mom (not the stepmother) is actually really thinking about her son, though it's annoying when she's supporting the villainess. She was the one who forced the ML to own up to his feeling. And she supports her son's decision when she believes that ML really knows what he's doing.

I also really really like the nouveau rich Tang family (the FL's real family). They are the greatest! Each member grew with love and when the FL returned to the family, they unswervingly showered her with love, hoping that she can feel safe and secure.

Even the real daughter (FL is the fake daughter of the rich) was so good. She felt blessed and guilty that she took the FL's place for 20 years, especially after knowing how miserable the FL's life was before. She stayed away until the FL felt secured enough to include her in her (FL's) life.

It's the first time I feel both fake and real daughters are pitiful. But I like how the author wrote it.

FL is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She really graduated from a prestigious university (which no one believes) and got a lot of awards from her school days. But because her 'family' is somewhat on the bottom of the rich family list, people thought she was just another vase who climbed up using dirty means. FL and ML interacts like guests. They respect each other because they have the same interests and expect no love.

Then it's a fake daughter trope trying to tie up rich family by using the engagement—no. ML doesn't really mind about her background because what he was looking for was the person. And her biological family is awesome. They love her so much. They're even richer–the real landlord family, but apparently an upstart. I could never hold my tear ducts when they interact—either too funny or too heart-wrenching.

In the early phase, FL doesn't want to break up because she's freaking poor and she needs to give back the apartment she lived in and all the gifts back to ML if she asks to break off the engagement first. She doesn't want to live in the streets with zero money so she deliberately hold on until the right time to cancel the engagement.

The romance's kinda slow. Funny that ML finally realized that he likes the FL when his own mother talked about 'love' while introducing him to another girl she preferred. Then the real chasing starts here.
