Real rating 4.7/5I enjoyed this a lot!!! The FL and ML were super cute as both a couple and as individual characters and it was fun to see them gradually getting closer. We follow our FL who ends up using an app to help and contact the ML and ends up falling in love and helping him get revenge. It is mainly focused on the ML's journey and progression, and doesn't involve "using future technologies and bringing them back to ancient times" and safely maneuvers out of the general 'change the world with no thought of consequences' types of tropes, sticking mainly to romance in ancient times.I love the personality of the FL, where she knows what she wants and will not degrade herself and bend to others will, and is also very forward and bright, sweetly teasing the ML every chance she can get. I also really liked the fact that it was somewhat realistic in the modern world setting, as sometimes I see novels try to make it super outrageous in the modern world to compliment the fantasy setting but ending up as a very messy and chaotic follow. Our FL has a very normal family and nothing really ends up being to dramatic given I could totally see those dynamics of family concerns totally happening in real life too.I think the only thing I wasn't too satisfied with was how any of the other characters where not that fleshed out, with only the Emperor, the 5th prince and FL's parents being explored as characters but even then to a very superficial degree. But that's just me nitpicking as you wouldn't really find it a concern since romance is the main focus. I guess another thing is that we're never explained how and why she got the chance to contact him through her phone in the first place, but that is also just a minor concern as their relationship is more important.Overall, the story was a fun, lighthearted read, and the length of the novel is not too short either; no love rivals, no angst, just a cute romance with a HE.
