I had high hopes after enjoying Who Cares? However, I found the plot hard to believe and ultimately decided to stop reading. The fact that the crown princess's babies, attended by numerous caretakers, could have foreign objects in their noses without anyone noticing, including those whose lives would depend on the babies' safety, stretched my suspension of disbelief too far. When the main character (MC) simply pointed out the issue, it became too much for me.
Additionally, the portrayal of a horsewhip, combined with sexual descriptions of MC's prepubescent body from her brother's perspective, created an uncomfortable atmosphere. The持续性的兄妹间性骚扰 as she grew older also disturbed me. Unfortunately, there weren't any comedic elements throughout my reading. If the story were a dark, twisted romance, it might have been more appealing, but as it stands, I found it immature, unengaging, and not worth my time. Despite my initial attempt to finish, I couldn't continue past that point and decided to abandon the book.
I enjoy this type of novel where the beginning can be a bit confusing, but the plot gradually improves. The relationship between the male lead (ML) and female lead (FL) is intense, with both characters exhibiting dominant traits, which adds an intriguing dynamic to the story. Although their affection towards each other might seem excessive, considering FL's young age, it's important to remember that the story is set in ancient China and should be appreciated within its fictional context.
Overall, the narrative is highly entertaining for those who appreciate a strong, intelligent, and sometimes arrogant female character who outsmarts everyone around her. It's a delightful read for fans of overprotective relationships and witty comebacks.
I initially held a negative view of the greedy monk from the first chapter. He seems to crave both the artifact and the lives of his uncles; a truly selfish Buddhist. It would be best if he were to disappear.
"Delightful! For those who gave a low rating or didn't complete the story, kindly read it first and then share your thoughts. Appreciate your consideration, thank you!"
This is an adorable tale of a straightforward and intelligent girl who forms an emotional bond with a calculating marquis, primarily towards his family. The story combines a heartwarming plot with engaging characters and intricate details. What I appreciate is the unique premise of the female lead (FL)'s transmigration, explained as a consequence of a specific event rather than the usual cliché of reading a book and waking up in a different world.
FL's character is captivating, as she uses logic to effortlessly handle situations and isn't afraid to assert herself physically when necessary. However, one aspect that left me wanting more was the abrupt ending where FL's older brother and the ninth princess, her close friend, fell in love. I would have loved to witness their union, but the story abruptly concluded without providing a satisfying conclusion.
A drawback I found was the rushed pace towards the end, which although我喜欢快节奏的故事, felt unsatisfactory due to lingering questions. For instance, the emperor's health condition and subsequent events were not fully resolved. It was hinted that he had lung cancer and planned to groom his eldest son for the throne, but his fate after that was unclear.
Additionally, there's a theory circulating that FL's twin brother, unaware of the past sacrifice, orchestrated her reincarnation as a form of repayment. Although the brother's role is minimal, their connection through shared dreams and FL's protectiveness of the seemingly identical ML adds an interesting layer to the narrative.
Lastly, it's important to clarify that while some might perceive ML as yandere, the description of the novel states that it's FL who exhibits such behavior, not ML. Therefore, readers shouldn't hold the novel responsible for this interpretation. Overall, the story has its charm but could benefit from a more conclusive and fleshed-out ending.
It could just be me, but the atmosphere reminds me of the web novel "The Beloved Pet Fish of the Disabled Tyrant," often referred to as "danmei." The low rating isn't necessarily due to explicit content (people who enter knowing the premise and accept the plot developments, despite not being interested, shouldn't complain if it doesn't align with their preferences), but rather the execution. The story could have benefited from a smoother progression, showing character growth and moral dilemmas, instead of jumping straight into intense relationships. The lack of satisfying development is a letdown.
Yu Xiang's extreme luck throughout becomes monotonous, as she consistently prevails, defeating those who oppose her, even if they deserve it. While it has an in-story explanation, it becomes boring to witness her constant victories. As for characters like Yu Miaoqi, her one-dimensional nature or exaggerated vanity make her seem like a caricatured villain, serving as a stepping stone for the protagonist.
Overall, the story feels平淡 or underwhelming to me, despite occasional well-written scenes. My lukewarm response contributes to a lower rating compared to the average.
This is an exceptional narrative. The female lead possesses a strong presence, with engaging slapstick scenes where she rescues the male lead on numerous occasions. What stands out is the FL's unapologetic embrace of her sexuality. I crave more stories with such compelling characters and dynamics!
"I absolutely adore this story ❤️❤️... Initially, I wasn't particularly fond of the female lead (FL), but as I delved deeper, she became one of my favorite FL characters I've encountered... 💓💓💓. Some readers might find the intensity of the ML-FL relationship overwhelming, but it's precisely that connection that tugs at my heartstrings and makes this story dear to me. So, why not give it a chance? It's worth exploring 😊😊👌."
