It's so good, but it makes me cry... I feel so sorry for Chu Yan. He's acutely aware that he's become "abnormal." From Chu Yan's perspective, his father doesn't love him, his mother is gone, his stepmother hates him, his older brother is "hypocritical" (this is just my guess), his younger brother is arrogant, and the person he likes has "gentleness and friendliness that everyone possesses" (this…
My darlings, feel free to leave a comment here and critique the characters who have already appeared. I'd love to hear everyone's opinions. Xie Tingli/Chu Yingxi/Ji Qingheng/Ke Zheng/Shi Loufei/Shen Yuanyi/Qu Yubai. The work has great potential, and I'm really looking forward to the author's design, but I also hope to see some more unexpected highlights.
I think it's a great read. The angst isn't overtly angsty; the male lead is a good person. However, he doesn't have an omniscient perspective, so I can understand everything he does. Having grown up in luxury, he can't possibly understand the female lead, but when the female lead is framed and forced into a relationship, he sacrifices himself and marries this stranger for her life.
After reading "Dong Shi Niang's Disliked and Melancholy Stories: He's Reborn," I've always enjoyed reading first-person narratives. This book is very well written; Chu Yan's character really resonated with me. I cried a lot in the early chapters because he was just a child who wanted to be loved. I hope the author continues to write brilliantly! Keep it up!
I'll leave a review first. The angst-filled parts are truly angsty. The first-person perspective is so immersive that I almost lost track of time while reading. As I get older, I can't handle angst anymore. But the writing is quite delicate, and I can really empathize with Chu Yan's mental state.
I finished reading it in one go, it was great! The writing is truly excellent! There are very few authors on Tomato with such strong writing skills! What touched me most was the author's characterization of Chu Yan. The early Chu Yan was incredibly charming, truly hitting my sweet spot (I haven't liked a novel this much in all of 2024).
It's really good. I finished it overnight and cried for a long time. It's truly heart-wrenching. The author's writing is excellent, making you feel their pain. Yan Bao suffers so much, but she's so cute and vibrant. Fei Yan is so delicious. Yan deserves all the love and care. Looking forward to the next update! Hopefully, things will be resolved later.
It's a really good book. The author portrays Yan's emotional state very well, and it's heartbreaking. However, I still ship the official couple. Although I wanted to switch partners halfway through, I still feel it's not Xie's fault. He lives in such a privileged environment; they're from completely different worlds.
It's so good! The feeling of loving and hating at the same time is so intense, a real bittersweet feeling (purely painful, not really). All I can say is, let's wait for the bittersweet ending, wait for Xie Sui to learn how to love someone, wait for Chu Yan to find someone he can truly rely on. Actually, they're both so pitiful—liking someone without even realizing it. I love watching this kind of thing; it feels like my heart is being torn apart, it's so satisfying!
[Reviewed at Chapter 186, approximately 1/3 to 1/4 of the outline written] Here are some answers to the most frequently asked questions: ① The main story is 1v1, with an aftermath of an "if" story where every character will have a happy ending. ② The beginning is very angsty, but it gets sweeter after chapter 50. However, this transition won't happen overnight.
