White Moonlight is Egg Fried Rice Chapter -- Discussion

This was so sweet. I wish it was a little longer, but maybe it for the best that the story doesn't drag. It's the kind of story you read in ten or twenty minutes and that fills you with happiness, then you forget about it after a little while. Nothing wrong with short stories that aren't very memorable. This one was written beautifully, would recommend if you enjoy family fluff.

Some may be a little bitter at the fact that the dad (tho his btch of a new wife was no better) didn't get enough retribution, but I think his son disowning him before becoming a business tycoon is punishment enough. Let him see what he missed out on (the money ofc, he doesn't care about the boy) and be bitter about it. Plus, there's always karma in those stories, so I'm sure he'll get his ass bitten soon enough. A man like him cannot live a long fullfilling family life with such shadows in his closet. The truth will eventually comes to light.

One part of me wants to know more about our MC's story, but at the same time I feel like it wasn't needed. As a transmigration stories enjoyer, I see how often the MC's background gets quickly tossed to the side in favor of the plot, and it's always very bitter and feels like wasted potential. SVSSS is an exeption, as SY's twenty-first century mentality is what makes who he is and dictates the (terrible) choices he makes through the story (and what makes him so unique and strange amongst ancient china characters). But more often than not you could remove the transmigration aspect entirely and the story would barely change. The MC sinks in so naturally and smoothly in their new role that it feels like they were actually born in this should-be-unfamiliar world, and it makes me wonder "what was the point of making them a transmigrator if they adjust their mentality and fit into their new role so quickly and perfectly? It's always a shame and reeks of laziness.

This story though, it felt like the author knew adding such details was useless, and that the relationship between MC and her adopted son was more important than pointless backstory. And I appreciate that.
