Gluttonous Crown Princess Chapter 101 Discussion

MC is typical dense innocent transmigrator who loves to eat and cook, adapting to the new age, conquering everyone around her with her cooking.

ML is fixed from the beginning. He is also the typical possessive character who hides so deeply. Outside he is sickly gentle caring, and above all, godly gorgeous, making MC fall in love with him. While actually he is cruel, mad, doing bad things in the fight to the throne.

It's more of a slice of life with cooking for the most part, and romance as the other main theme.

It is not that bad, really. I'm not interested in the food so I simply skip it. Some of cooking novel tend to make MC too OP (as in no one else in the country able to make good food), while in here, she simply likes eating (it's her nature) and not monopolized the ability to make good food.

Other than cooking (and eating and being a beauty), MC has no other talent. She is really naive innocent, but it is also her advantage (yes, it's the kind of novel where no matter how s*upid someone acts, the plot or the pampering love interest will come to her aid).

Romance is rather slow burn, but there isn't much "misunderstanding", so it's not frustrating to read.

Until around chapter 101 where I (finally) read the one in the description, and dropped this.

Spoiler

MC died after eating mushroom gifted by her female friend. This female friend feel guilty and somehow managed to transmigrate to MC's world, alas, as burly male noble from another country.

Knowing each other identity, MC design rendezvous with this friend, while completely aware of her status as crown princess, showing her happiness after meeting her him, feeling distraught when she he got hurt, even sneak out to meet her him privately in the night while lying to her husband. This friend warn her that ML is not what he appear to be, offering to marry her away to another country. But MC refused.

The husband definitely find out, and out of jealousy confront her (basically the one in the description), and MC feel wronged because she is not cheating, while she feel duped by her husband who actually not a gentle person she fall in love with (she completely believe this one word of her friend).

As a resolve, MC cries, ML soften, MC lied to get out of the situation, but then tried to tell the truth, ML stopped her not want to know her situation because.. hmm.. "as long as you are you, I don't care about anything else".. And.. Happy Ending....

This feel underwhelming. ML disguise supposedly completely broken after this event. ML doesn't have to have a possessive setting to be jealous and act on it, considering how MC acts. Everyone have different borderline and acts differently in different situation, anyway. I think it's also better for MC to be completely dense, instead of knowing what she shouldn't do, but do it anyway, then feel wronged when she is caught. But ML accept it anyway because.. plot.
