This novel is full of children who don't act their age. Three-year-olds act like they are 5-6. And while it would be understandable for the MC to act older since she is a 18-year old who transmigrated, she still doesn't act her age. I feel like her mental age is around 6 or 7 with occasional spikes to 16.Leaving that aside, I quite enjoyed reading the first part/main story centered around toddler Xiaoxiao (MC) and her interactions with her father since I am a sucker for wholesome family dynamics. This leads me to my highlight of the story, Papa Huo aka. Huo Suicheng, the villainous daddy. I adore him to bits. He is not perfect perse, but pretty much how I wish my dad would be. While he is pretty strict with his daughter, you can feel his care and love towards her. As a first time parent he does make quite a number of mistakes, but he is willing to apologize and learn from them. His character development is subtle, but oh so satisfying. His reflection letter made me cry... Huo Suicheng is my favorite novel daddy up to date.Other characters I liked include Xiaowu (daddy's right hand), Grandpa Huo (makes me want to have a grandpa) and Yi Qian (potential victim of the second male lead syndrome).The later part of the story shifts more towards the relationships of the MC as she grows up. It's like a whole new story which might be interesting for all I know. But I am a bit desensitized towards emotional dramas in Chinese webnovels. So far I am not sure who the MC will end up with since her whole life seems to be a sausage fest.Either way, I will take a break from the novel for now and might pick it up at a later point. This shouldn't scare anyone off from reading this novel, though. Just the first 78 or so chapters alone is worth the read.
