A few things to know before reading:
1. This is not a wish-fulfillment story. It focuses on the plot, so please give it a pass if that’s not for you. It’s written with adaptation potential in mind.
2. The book has both ancient and modern storylines, but the focus is on the modern one.
3. The male lead is devoted, but it’s hard to say the same for the female lead. She has two souls in one body, and the other soul is the second female lead.
4. The plot is tightly connected from one part to the next, so please don’t skip around. Missing even one chapter may make the story hard to follow. It’s best to let the book build up to 200,000 characters before binge-reading.
5. The historical dynasties, geography, and ethnic groups in the book are all fictional. Please don’t draw too many parallels with reality.
6. It’s not exactly a sweet romance, but the leads dote on each other. Neither lead will suffer, and the ending is guaranteed to be happy.
7. The author isn’t good at writing blurbs. The story itself is the best guide to what happens.
8. Updates are steady, with 4,000 or 6,000 characters posted daily.
