The ultimate in sweet and angsty ancient Chinese romance! "The Crow Perches on the Heart of the Ruler" is so addictive, you'll keep reading! After finishing "The Crow Perches on the Heart of the Ruler," I became a fan immediately. As an addictive ancient romance novel, it perfectly balances the extreme favoritism of a yandere and a crazy person with the tension of power struggles.
Yan Junjue is the kind of person who is never afraid of going to hell himself. What he fears is that she will be in hell and refuse to hold his hand again. Cui Yunxi told her brother: "If you truly like someone, you should wish them well, even if that well-being has nothing to do with you." Yan Junjue had heard countless (principles/truths) in his life, but this was the only one he couldn't learn.
I finished it in three nights, and it's truly the pinnacle of ancient Chinese romance novels—absolutely amazing! It's incredible how an author can describe the kind of life I imagine so realistically. I've never felt this way while reading novels before; I was completely absorbed, following my thoughts the whole time without getting distracted. 💕💕💕💕💕
The story unfolds layer by layer, making you want to keep watching... People grow stronger in adversity, and their will becomes incredibly firm. Living conditions are so good now, but children seem to have become incredibly fragile. Sometimes adversity actually inspires them...
Don't look at the ratings, look at the content!
No dragging, no unnecessary words, fast-paced plot, very good!
When will we get to the sweet part after this back and forth?
I especially liked it; the author didn't use any particularly flowery language, but it created a very strong sense of immersion.
You won't regret getting into this! It gets better and better as you read on. You're lucky to have even read this book! 😳😳
I've read six chapters and they're pretty good, why is nobody reading them? Author, please keep writing and don't stop updating!
