Tl;dr: The author has problematic views, and the story is just not written well. At all.I think what really gripped me is the way the author (as well as many other Chinese authors) explicitly states that people who are beautiful have the high moral ground and are just better. This is paraphrased, but Lou Xu (a side character) legitimately says, "Oh, the MC must be telling the truth because she's so pretty!", and "Oh, the MC is so beautiful they couldn't have done this!" Like, the only reason why they're listening to MC is that she's beautiful.While it's true that bias toward beauty exists, it really isn't as exaggerated as this in real life. What's really concerning to me is that this novel's audience is targeted toward young adults, and they may subconsciously start to believe that by being beautiful they can get away with a lot of things.As for a general review... it does even worse.This novel couldn't even pull off the feel-good face-slapping part. It's just a poorly executed, cliche in a million ways wannabe novel. That might sound harsh, but I'm really tired of the classic switched sister-at-birth and subsequent green tea bit*h sister that leads to dog blood drama with the family. Don't forget about the brainless fans. Or the dumb annoying sister's fiance. Or that the MC is mary sue af and is cool, otherworldly beautiful, #1 academically, secret fighting master, great at some skill (in this case piano), talented, and just overall 100000000/10.Just don't read it. Save yourself from reading 400+ chapters.
