It's a great read. The male lead has ulterior motives from the very beginning, falls in love at first sight without realizing it, and once he's sure of his feelings, he doesn't hesitate to make it clear, even if the female lead can't accept homosexuality. It's really super good. The only downside is that it's not finished yet. It'll just sit on my bookshelf and collect dust until it's finished before I read it again.
Dear author, I truly never imagined that the three books I read were all by the same author! I only realized today, with the finale, that all three books were by you – *Little Junior Brother*, *Death Escape*, and *Yun Zhao*. I followed each one individually, sometimes switching devices to read them. I felt all three books had exceptionally delicate writing.
I've already read two of the author's books, so the quality is guaranteed. I rushed to support them! I've only read about ten chapters so far, but I feel like the beginning doesn't detail the female lead's journey to this world, though there are foreshadowing elements. Wow, this is really good! In the original story, the male lead, Jie, did not die; not even the empress did.
The male lead is a paragon of virtue! Even in his past life, he was a clean-living emperor who never took concubines or established an empress. In this life, he meets our angelic female lead! She's incredibly outstanding; there's no dramatic plot of a heroine sacrificing herself to heal the male lead. Instead, the heroine herself is wonderful, and her presence naturally influences him…
This is a very good novel. The female lead starts as a college student who has just transmigrated to this world. She's afraid of some things, but she still manages to solve problems. Later, she regains her memories and her abilities become stronger and stronger, which I found very satisfying.
The plot is great! The female lead is amazing! I like that kind of thing—the female lead is highly skilled in martial arts, and while she's timid, she's actually a transmigrator, and in this era, her values are very upright.
It's a great read, not too angsty, sweet with just a tiny bit of angst (almost none, I'm fine with both), a nice change of pace. The plot is full of twists and turns, and since I was looking for something to read, I finished it quickly, even after just two days. It's good, I loved it! I'm writing this review to hopefully boost the author's readership! Keep up the good work, author! I wish you continued success, wealth, and a prosperous life! 😘😳
The last 100 chapters can be skipped entirely; the plot is pretty predictable, and it's basically just daily pampering after they get together. The beginning is decent, mainly because the male lead is a compelling character with strong moral values, intelligence, and emotional intelligence. If it were just about the female lead, I probably would have given up after a few chapters. 🤦
The storyline is excellent and flows smoothly. The male and female leads are also very well-developed. This is one of the few cross-dressing stories that I found very enjoyable. Actually, for cross-dressing novels, I prefer the revelation of the identity in the latter half. But in this one, it happened in the middle, which made me a little worried.
It's so good! How come the rating is so low after reading for so long? I was planning to wait until the finale before giving it a good review, but ahhhhhh! I wait for this book to update every night. Author, please keep updating! I'll follow this book to the very end!
