Deng Hua Xiao Chapter 149 Discussion

MC is smart but when ML is related, she is a bit careless. She already noticed that ML is wary of her but she never thought of doing things to prevent ML from noticing hints of MC's private deeds (Spoiler

aka mu*der

[collapse]) which made me disappointed.

Example #1:

Spoiler

After MC's first mu*der, she and ML accidentally met. Blah blah, ML accidentally saw MC's hand which has a suspicious blood (? I forgor) just when the people in that place got alerted that someone died last night. Like first of all, why did MC did not noticed that on her own hand before meeting with people? Like whaaat.

Example #2:

Spoiler

Buying jewelry from pawn shop, knowing that she never wears jewelry. She should've atleast had some excuse but idk why she didn't. Like idk, she could've done better for sure.

Example #3:

Spoiler

Why would MC not think to hide "The Laws of the Liang Dynasty" book somewhere that can't be easily seen by guests (like ML, for example) ? She should have thought that it'd be pretty suspicious no matter what for a WOMAN to read that kind of book 😅 It's not like she has a job related to laws or something, her current identity is a doctor in a small clinic. So I'm not sure why she put the book in plain sight. At this point, ML doesn't need to have 1999iq to be suspicious about her. MC is just careless, tbh. But I know that the author intended for MC to be a little bit careless in front of ML to display ML's intelligence and let ML continue to be interested with this unusual woman (MC).

For now, I rate it 4.0. Some things could've been better but I can't deny that this novel is well-written. Kudos to the author and translator (s).

Edit: FIVE STARS!!!
