This story fell flat. It started like all the others, but the author changed its mind in the middle.ML: starts as a hardworking, tall, handsome young man that is disliked because not feminine enough and finishes as a soft and fair skinned cute pampered ger with thin waist and petite hands. He's gentle and never takes any decision by himself and asks MC to deal with all the unexpected situations.Relationship: MC and ML fall in love at first sight, some days later they decide to marry, 5 days later it's done. After that the ML is there but is transparent. MC wants to stick to him so he brings him everywhere and teaches him business, math,... and ML has no opinion and does what his husband asks of him. Then the author decides that ger, women and men should be equals, but men should work and women and ger should be pampered at home.After this shift, ML is less and less present, he exists to be pampered and by the ploting of part of his family. The story focus even more on business. MC was a genius businessman in his time period and opens factories, sea routes, uses various technology blueprints and formulas (like plastic), to become richer and richer.So this story is more about business slice of life. Everything goes smoothly.Because the main love story was cut short, there're plenty of side couples, but they all take 1 or 2 chapters max to be resolved. There is face slapping too, of course, but it's more about fending off waves of money grabbing relatives.I was there for the BL historical story and I got a business development plan. But it's not badly written nor full of plot holes, just kinda flat and empty.
