You will get everything in this drama .It is worth watching and the cast is perfect. It is available for free as well. It is a cute and romantic love story and not a complex drama.

Starts bery cute but wanders a bit chaotically in the last episodes

Warning: Spoilers
8/10 is my rating. This is a 2021 Chinese romantic comedy drama with 24, 41 minute episodes.

First I provide a synopsis then review

Synopsis

Xiaobao (Sun Sicheng) tends to create a whirlwind of chaos wherever her goes. He is the only child being raised by single father, He Qiaoyan (Wei Zheming), CEO of Heshi Group. He is non verbal and instead holds up cards to communicate with others. He has burned through nannies and doctors until he meets Qin Yiyue (Hu Yixuan), a child psychologist, who Xiabao takes an immediate liking to. At first opposed to having Xiabao work with the young, eccentric doctor, his son's earnest desire to befriend Yiyue convinces the robotic like CEO that she may be the one that can help his son. After overcoming her original reluctance, Qiaoyan gets Yiyue to agree to a contract marriage for Xiaobao (Sun Sicheng). But what starts as a business arrangement as the two very different people find that lobe cam blossom in unlikely places. Turns out the sweet, warm amd highly capable psychologist is a perfect foil for the distant, cold and logic centered CEO.

Review

Overall a good not great heart warming romantic comedy. I like both leads and look for them in other series. They have great chemistry and the romance between them is well paced and believable. Anyone who likes the single parent, Cinderella, and cold executive tropes will like it for those reasons.n That being said there were some plot holes and character inconsistencies that developed toward the end. But it was a happy ending just some odd twists and turns immediately prior.

Spoilers*

I liked the first 3/4 of the show so much I would likely have considered it a 9 or 9.5 out if 10. But then the writers seemed to lose their way in tying up the mystery and ending the story. The strange directions they took the main plot and subplots decreased the value of the series in my opinion. For one here she is supposed to be a uniquely talented psychologist but when she finds out he had major past trauma that he may be blocking she decides breaking up with him is best. Like breaking his heart in the middle of a mental health crisis is better than him remembering past trauma. They also act like well he has PTSD so he is just a lost cause. Two talented psychologists do not know how to deal with PTSD. That did not make sense. In facy Yiyue listens to the Aunt, who has no psychological training, and who has stated she doesn't think Yiyue is socioeconomically good enough for Qiaoyan. The Aunt tells Yiyue she needs to leave Qiaoyan and Xiabao and never show up in front of them because her presence would be a reminder of the accident. And she was clueless because Qiaoyan has never gotten over the accident because he struggles to remember the details So he has regular nightmares. But Yiyue listens to the Aunt, who so obviously might have selfish motivations, and goes against what she should have learned as a psychologist, and breaks it off even "giving" him to her love rival. Like that is not psychologically damaging or hurtful. And Qiaoyan, who had been robotically stoic to this point, uncharacteristically falls all apart when he finds out he was the driver. It would have made sense for him to be sad or feel guilty but to fall apart to the extent he did was out of character. Then Yiyue comes up with this "dream of hers to go to Germany" thing and it is the first we heard of it. If the main character supposedly had this long term dream it makes no sense to only hear about it in the last episodes. If she had been faking it to provide a reason for the break up to Qiaoyan it would have made a little sense but no, she verifies it to her parents and friends. When she realizes that Qiaoyan has learned of the past and is in acute mental crisis ,she says screw Germany I am staying as they need me (like really "brilliant" psychologist, you only now realize that?) but then she randomly gets kidnapped. When Xiaobao tells him mommy was kidnapped he chases the kidnappers down and winds up putting his car in front of theirs to stop them. Then he wakes up in the hospital and Yiyue tells him the reason she was kidnapped and why the accident that killed his brother wasn't his fault because his rival company found out his brother had dirt on them and they caused the accident. These arch rival/enemies were new to these last episodes. I think they were trying for a surprising plot twist but it was just weird and confusing, She was distancing herself, then he was, then she was and it went back and forth like that netween them a lot. And through all the adult's nonsense there was Xiaobao. He was always snapping the adults out of it. Xiaobao was better at psychology than Yiyue. Like in the last few episodes when his dad was being an emotional zombie, Xiaobao used calling Qiaoyan daddy to get him to snap out of his psychological funk and it worked. So that gets sorted and it seems Yiyue has finally given up on going to Germany. Whicj was a stupid thing because it came out if nowhere. But the writers were not done with Germany because Qiaoyan suddenly is like you should go to Germany because it was always your dream. And she is like you are right that was always my dream (it wasn't) so I am going to go to Germany and we will have a long distance relationship because right after you barely recovered psychologically and when Xiaobao is finally experiencing some stability - that is the best time for me to leave and pursue my dream. Then they have the weirdest long distance relationships and it seems she is really bad at it because even Xiaobao comments, anout not hearing or seeing her much. But then she is coming back and plays a prank about not coming back but then is back but we do not know why or how long. If it sounds chaotic it was. The writers just lost their way in those last episodes forgot some key characteristics of their characters and had them doing all kinds of things odd for their character. They also threw in some random elements then just rushed through them.

Lovely drama
kathrynraerobinson19 January 2024
This was a relaxed, happy and enjoyable viewing experience. I enjoyed the the story lines woven together, the ups and downs were not stretched beyond belief but naturally fit the story. The actors were good, this is the second drama I've watched for the male lead and he pulls off the cold-hearted data focused characters really well. Now I need to see him in a period drama to see what that is like. I found myself invested in the story and their relationships, even a little teary at some points (no spoiler here) because their acting was believable.

Definitely won't regret watching this drama at all!

Must watch Chinese drama!!
TheRajatShahare6 September 2021
To be frank I don't like to watch Chinese drama as they're only based on empire, king, queen, love etc. But, this one literally very different. The cast is excellent and most beautiful thing is it's not like other melodramas. The storyline is amazing & the child actor is just cherry on top. I feel little boring in the second last episode for few minutes but afterwards it's fine. Overall, this drama is highly recommended from my side. Basically, I never give this much higher rating so easily but this drama won this for so many reasons.

Perfect drama to watch.
priyagoswami-9447227 April 2022
It has everything which a drama should have. Romance, comedy, anger and lots of lots of cuteness of leads and the baby.

All in all I enjoyed it very much.

The cutest part of this series is Xiabao.

See firstly i dont have any imbd account its the first time in life that i created imbd account to just review this drama. So you see the craze of this drama for me and not for only me but for the whole unforgettable love fans. I have to write 600 words review on this drama but if i kept writing i guess whole month or whole year time will be enough. Its just I recommend everyone to watch this drama coz its beyond everything. Their chemistry is just unmatching romance and everything is perfect . I would say its way to better than latest drama hidden love. I just cant describe this drama in few but just hopping that their will be soon season 2. Further i will be going to china to meet cast of unforgettable love in person . Lets see what will happen .just kidding but worth watching definitely to watch. Thankyou.

not a bad one, but some bad things
dyballabeata24 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I liked it... it has a good flow, good chemistry between actors, not too prolonged like asian series can be... But I have to admit, there were few weird, bad things or how to describe it... When you take into consideration that the child was at the moment of the accident 1y old, max 1.5y old... and then you see the scenes with a Xiaobao when he is 6 or 7 years old... then you cannot stop thinking about this controversy. Couldn't they just take some baby to the scene, so it wouldn't be this illogical? And there were few things like this. But nothing really crazy or bad in a main line. So after all I am satisfied. 😊
