My Senior Brother Always Wants to Bloom

This book is quite captivating. The first half is shrouded in mystery, the middle is permeated with sadness, and the ending is a pleasant surprise—the male and female leads reunite. Xueyi returns the karma to the female lead. The Demon Lord becomes a demon for love; being an emperor isn't easy, as one is constantly threatened by his subjects.

The senior brother claimed to love her, but ultimately abandoned her to ascend to immortality. After witnessing her death, he feigned resurrection, never once asking what she truly wanted. Yuebai, who claimed to love the female lead, also betrayed her, leaving her in despair within the dark barrier, ultimately dying pregnant with his child.

Anyone else like me who started with "The Basic Professional Qualities of a Bodyguard"? After reading it, I probably won't find another book I like better. I feel this one isn't as good as another book by the same author.

This book is very well written, somewhat like a detective story, with layers of mystery. It's a bit sad, though, so those who like tragedies might want to consider it. I personally couldn't handle it.

I was left wanting more! Zhao Tantan and her senior brother Cui Chen missed so many years; it's heartbreaking. Yet, I don't hate any of the villains in this book. The Demon Lord Yue Bai, a mortal who fell from grace, though he harmed Zhao Tantan, was deeply devoted to her, even though he himself didn't get a good ending.

Family, this is actually quite good! The beginning is funny, but as the foreshadowing is revealed one by one, it becomes very sad and disheartening, with some plot twists and such. Also, the senior brother is really a bit stubborn, so I really lean towards the Demon Lord appearing at the end. But belated affection is worthless, so the female lead might as well just end up with the Seventh Prince [smirk].

Well, to put it simply, the novel's subplot (past life) really hit my sweet spot: Lianwen followed her senior brother away from Kunlun, but her foundation was destroyed, leaving her with no hope of ascension. Her senior brother, devoted to the Dao, meant they saw each other less and less. For ten thousand years after her senior brother's ascension, Lianwen endured loneliness and hardship.

Why do you never ask me if I'm willing to make a decision...? "One heart? What kind of one heart? Every step was arranged according to his plan? From the very beginning, he arranged for me to obtain Wan Zi's pair of swords, which brought me to the brink of death several times. Later, he demanded that I intensify my cultivation to ascend and see him as soon as possible.

It's worth reading, but it requires patience; the article intersperses flashbacks. The female protagonist is Lianwen, also known as Zhao Tantan, who was revived by her senior brother using the Seven-Leaf Lotus. Ten thousand years ago, the senior brother and the female protagonist were cultivation partners, though I don't think they were really cultivation partners because they never confessed…

From the very beginning, I had a question: did they like each other? Did they love each other? Even until the very end, I didn't have a definitive answer. The male lead's affection was always a self-deceptive kind of love—love that was eternal, love that involved sacrifice, love that was hazy and elusive. As for the female lead, I don't know if it was love.
