Tbf, in my case I knew what I came to read. Manhua writings are (I apologize if this opinion heavily differs to other readers) just terrible. So far, the good manhuas that stayed with me are those that just focused with the romance and SOL, drama is welcome so long as its not overdone, or even outright comedy. If I wanted to read heavy revenge stories with one dimensional villains, I'd read their martial arts, historical, even mafia centric manhua. For here, we could push the mafia theme, it just annoys me chinese antagonists last a couple of arcs (like Dora or whatever her chinese name was), Mona got some retribution (from what I can remember) but in the end, feels like she could still have a normal life at least. The Gong parents? His brother who faked his death? I'm still pissed the former got what they wanted, an heir and Nina STILL didn't get the respect she deserves. The story eventually reveals she comes from a rich bg, nothing should be stopping them in being together now, the parents should be somewhat sorry for treating her terribly (I'm not expecting much in manhua), actually help their son and his wife reconcile (with Gong Ou's personality shift), berate their older son for the damage he caused his brother. Heck, I'd rather get the cliche reveal they aren't Gong Ou's parents and we have a better parent somwhere, they abandon their grandkids for not having their blood and give them back to the parents.
