Tell me why the ending is sweet? Why force a happy ending? ... Tell me, how tragic was it all? The child you bore for him was named Yu, such a smart child, abused and disowned as a child, leaving him speechless—how desperate must he have been?! He also killed your two closest subordinates (who cared for and loved you so much!)
This book pierced my heart. Being ignored, trampled upon, tormented, hurt, and hated by a lover… but there was no way around it. Feng Lichen still loved Jun Huai, until finally, unable to love anymore, she gave up, and her life ended. Only then did Jun Huai pursue her. They say that belated affection is worthless, but this kind of cheap affection is what so many people yearn for.
The previous life was agonizing; love was so humble, heartbreaking, and filled with wounds. In the next life, belated affection is cheap as grass. But thankfully, the ending is happy.
This book truly depicts the idyllic experience of mistreating one's wife, followed by a tumultuous pursuit. Some might criticize the male lead for loving an emperor so humbly, but as outsiders, we have no right to judge their past life's regrets and how they try to make amends in this one.
At first, it was incredibly infuriating. Even if an emperor loved someone deeply, he shouldn't be so subservient. It made me want to kill Jun Huai. However, when it came to the part where Feng Lichen broke Jun Huai's pride, I started to understand him a little, but only in that chapter.
In his past life, Feng Lichen's love was too humble. How could an emperor love so humbly! It was so humble it was practically dwarfing him, yet Jun Huai couldn't see it. Now that he's reborn, Feng Lichen will have to torment Jun Huai even more to maintain balance. The ending was beautiful.
I feel especially sorry for Feng Lichen. In her past life, she was humiliated by so many people. She was incredibly tolerant of Jun Huai, always trying to please him only to be met with cold indifference. She could only suffer in silence. When she was pregnant, she carefully told Jun Huai, only to be told, "I don't like him."
It's beautiful, but this emperor is really not worth it; Jun Huai didn't give as much as the emperor.
On my first read, I was genuinely impressed by the author's excellent writing. However, after my second read, all I can say is, what gives Jun Huai the right?! Especially in his first life when he found Li Chen, his words, actions, inner thoughts, and feelings all infuriated me.
I finished this book a long time ago, and I left comments on almost every paragraph. While reading it, I felt very angry. Feng Lichen loved so humbly, willing to give the other person everything they wanted, yet Jun Huai still hurt him deeply, so deeply that it was etched into his heart.
