Airing 9/7!
Our Makane Amy has translated the Synopsis: Li Siyu (Liu Shi Shi) has been in love with her boyfriend Chen Yiming (Zhu Yi Long) for many years. Like all the other young individuals living in a big city, she had a bright appearance and a promising future in the workplace. Yet in reality, she was facing double the pressure and confusion from her career and emotions.
Zhang Zhizhi (Kan Qing Zi) and Gu Xiaoling (Chen Mi Qi) are Li Siyu’s best friend and the sisters she wishes she had, but the two have very different outlooks from Li Siyu. Zhang Zhizhi is your very average office worker. Her only goal in life was to protect her family and continue to live in their own small world, however, her husband, Liu Yang (Peng Guan Ying)’s stubbornness and various behaviors would slowly destroy Zhang Zhizhi’s original dream.
The beautiful “Goddess” Gu Xiaoling, on the other hand, would put all of her energy and attention into solving her own marriage affairs, but would instead meet Lei Hao, an unruly “bro.”
In the golden age of life, these hardworking people are faced with immense pressure and difficult choices from both life and work. The company of their friends and family are what push them forward and encourage them to not give up. They may be anxious and confused but never will they be lost, as they’re always full of goodwill to the people around them.
After all the setbacks, they are finally able to awaken completely, learn to obey and listen to their hearts, and treat others with kindness, so as to embrace their dearest selves and eventually grow into their best selves. [DO NOT TAKE OUT WITHOUT PERMISSION]

Checked out the first couple of episodes. They’ve already laid out all the problems that’ll unfold. I do like that the two leads are already a couple in love so that spares us from any cheesy encounters and we can focus on actual relationship problems. One woman is career-oriented and independent, another is devoted to her family and seems to have lost herself, and the last only dates rich guys. As for the men, we have one who wants to settle down (I can’t figure out Zhu Yilong just yet lol), one who is probably to be extremely tired of his wife and another who has way too many “girlfriends”.
The six people and three relationships seem very tiring, so I’m not sure how long this will keep me watching, but I’ll try to squeeze in some episodes while waiting for new episodes of Maiden Holmes. =P

The characters and storylines are so similar to Nothing but Thirty

Storyline wise it definitely will be tiring to watch like what polaris said, not my taste for drama but will give it a try when it ends.
Saw clips of ZYL and LSS and I must say their chemistry is oozing from the screen, they just look so gorgeous and it’s nice to see haha! LSS’s acting definitely improved and I am loving it, that scene when she acts adorable to ZYL, omg..
ZYL as usual, he pays attention to so much tiny details when acting, that kiss w LSS was so sad, he acted out the emotions in that short 19s.

I missed LSS so much! Loved Lost in Time. I also wished ZYL was male lead in Minglan. Haha
ZYL serenading at the beginning got me watching the first episode without subs. <3 He and LSS are such a visually beautiful pair that I'll stick around to see how things go.
