This book is so well-written! Although I absolutely hate the male protagonist, I have to admit he reflects the true feelings of most men in reality. All women with a romanticized view of love should read this. Stop dreaming about love; real marriages are just about calculating interests and weighing pros and cons.
I hope the author will write more from the female lead's perspective. Her character is currently too underdeveloped. I think there's a lot to explore between Xiao Zhi and the female lead, especially Xiao Zhi, her behind-the-scenes strategist—he's even more capable and meticulous than the male lead! Looking forward to it!
Wow! Just as brilliant as "The Ashtray," but with a different writing style. Both are tightly interconnected. It should be made into a short drama like this. I bet it would be very exciting and entertaining. I'm really looking forward to the TV series... I really admire the male lead's strong and astute mental fortitude.
This is incredibly well-written! The author is truly amazing! They could be a screenwriter! It's so addictive! It's Tomato's best novel, hands down! 👍
It's a very good novel, but as a suspense novel, it feels like you can see the whole thing from the beginning. Once you've read half of it, you know exactly what will happen next. It's basically about Xu discovering that Qin Guan caused her parents' deaths and meticulously planning this revenge.
Wow! I'm a very picky reader when it comes to novels, but this one is totally my cup of tea! The author's thinking is meticulous, the logic is clear, and the character portrayals are incredibly detailed—it's amazing!!! I predict this book will get over a 9 out of 10! It's so good, I love it!
It's a good novel with a good plot and content setting, and the characters are well-developed, making it easy to keep reading. The male protagonist's despicable, shameless, vicious, and insidious nature makes you want to grind your teeth in hatred, while the female protagonist's transformation from gentle and kind to strong and vengeful is also very satisfying!
The story is exciting, full of twists and turns, and the imagery is vivid. The language is a bit wordy, especially the parts describing the male protagonist's inner thoughts, which seem to repeat themselves over and over. However, these flaws don't detract from the overall quality.
This is a very good, high-quality book. The first half of the story is written from the male protagonist's perspective, which is very interesting. It allows readers to empathize with the selfish and arrogant mentality of men like him who have achieved success despite their humble origins. Although it's infuriating to read, it also feels very real.
I read this first and was pleasantly surprised to find the author is a very talented writer. However, I ended up reading this serialized book and was unexpectedly pleasantly surprised by its quality. It's my favorite and most memorable book of my 26 years. Good works are ones I'll always remember, and I can recall the details even years later. 📚(¯∇¯;)
