I Woke Up as the Bride in a Substitute Marriage

It's been a long time since I've read a novel from cover to cover. When I got to the middle, I thought, "The more you care about something, the more it will torment you," and that's exactly how it was for the female lead. After finishing the ending, I suddenly didn't know what to say. I think the author probably really liked Rong Moyu, so there were many parts in the later chapters that seemed to whitewash the male lead. For example, the human skin lantern at the beginning—honestly, I really couldn't understand that, but if you put it in the context of a feudal dynasty, it might have been even more cruel. Another example is how Rong Moyu tormented the female lead, repeatedly, yet she could still treat him with respect. I don't deny that Rong Moyu loved the female lead, but this kind of love was very obsessive and self-centered. He loved someone, and he had to love her in his own way, regardless of her wishes or whether she would be hurt. In this respect, I might prefer the second male lead, because he was actually always making things easier for her. There's one plot hole: the male lead's younger brother was described as so intelligent and cunning at a young age, ruthless in achieving his goals, so why did he suddenly drown later on? Whether it was intentional or accidental, it felt rushed. Actually, I thought about it for a long time before giving it five stars. This story is good, and I enjoyed reading it. Love you, author! Next time, write a story where the second male lead gets the role of the sequel. I really love that! 😘

The story is well-written and exciting, but it's incredibly tragic. The time-traveling heroine is tortured beyond recognition, especially by her supposed husband who breaks her bones and tears off her skin. She struggles in agony every day, yet slowly manages to fall in love with him – she's practically a masochist. The male lead, under the guise of loving and protecting her, loses his child with a single bowl of medicine!

It's really great, not dragging at all! The plot is super exciting!

It's very good, but a bit heartbreaking.

The 15th prince died, but the ending was alright, though a bit tragic.

So heartbreaking, it's heartbreaking from beginning to end...

The author's writing is vivid and captivating.

A very good novel!
