It's so good! There's one line I really like: "If you follow the wrong person, it's for life. You have to try your best to hold on to them and not wait until it's gone to regret it." Haha, after reading this novel, I really understand what I mean! Overall, this novel is very realistic.
It's very well written. If you miss it, you miss it. I like that the female lead didn't choose to repeat the same mistakes, and I also admire her sense of patriotism.
It's really good, I don't know why the rating is so low, it's unbelievable. I was so engrossed in it that I forgot to leave a comment. I would be content if I had a male lead like him in my life—handsome, gentle, and knowledgeable, and so good to the female lead. The female lead also becomes a better person because of him. I will definitely watch it twice, and maybe more than twice.
I haven't read such a good story in a long time. I usually read stories where the male and female leads are the main characters, but this one is different. Thankfully, in the end, she ended up with Prince Jing (the second male lead). The author's writing is excellent, capturing humor, sadness, helplessness, unfulfilled desires, and regrets. The female protagonist is also well-developed; seemingly cheerful, carefree, and sunny, she is actually sensitive, decisive, and free-spirited.
It's so good! I saw someone recommend it on social media at midnight and finished reading it at 3:30 AM. I cried for a long time. I really hope that in the next life, he won't be an emperor, and she won't be a young general. Or perhaps his ambition will allow her a share of his grand ambitions, and her talent will allow her a share of her heart filled with his love.
The author's writing is excellent. The pacing might be a bit fast at the beginning, but it gets much better as you read on. While the beginning is definitely angsty and difficult to read, you get a sense of relief towards the end. I must say, the author is quite talented. I've been reading for a long time, and it's been a while since I've finished a book completely.
I liked that there was no rekindling of the romance, and the ending was unexpected yet logical and easy to accept. The author's writing is good 👍👍👍 The story flows smoothly, and I like the female lead's personality. If she doesn't love someone, she doesn't love them anymore; if she misses out, she misses out. It's quite realistic—a simple, peaceful life with a happy family of four.
The song "Later" suits the male lead perfectly. The woman is too strong to evoke a man's protective instincts, hence her lack of love. These are all excuses used by scumbags. Every time I see the female lead turn and leave the male lead, I feel a pang of regret for him. Here, seeing the female lead leave the palace makes me happy; finding happiness in the next chapter will be even better.
It's a great watch, truly worth recommending. It avoids childish treatments and unrealistic (historically inaccurate) actions. Rarely seen, the characters are well-developed, rational, and most importantly, logical! I watched it a second time, and it still broke my heart beyond words. But after the pain subsided, I felt a deep sense of relief. This is true love; though short, it is incredibly insightful.
It's really great. I initially came in because it was short, but I didn't expect it to be so good. If you don't like stories that are all about pampering, you should check this one out. If you miss it, you miss it! The female lead is incredibly smart, really!!! You absolutely have to watch it!!
