It's so good! The female lead's cold and gloomy aura is so strong. It touches on the irrationality of youth-angst literature and common problems in campus novels from a very fresh perspective: the male lead is always outstanding, regardless of inequality in his background, he always surpasses the female lead, looking down at her from a high place; all the outstanding women do things for the male…
It was both exhilarating and heartbreaking to watch. This isn't just Wuxia's story; it's the collective memory of trillions of women throughout history who have endured humiliation, oppression, and murder. Those who haven't held power don't know the taste of control. May all women bravely move forward, becoming those who sit on the stage, those who set the rules.
A revenge story with a satisfying female protagonist! Long live the alliance of girls! A must-read masterpiece for female readers! This rating is bizarre; it's at least a 9.5. The female protagonist was drowned in her past life after being oppressed by a man under the guise of love, giving her a sinister, damp ghostly aura.
This is absolutely amazing! A truly enjoyable book to read. The author subtly hints at the different expectations placed on men and women in this world right from the names "Jian Wuxia" and "Li Zhengyi." Women are expected to be pure and innocent, easily enjoyed by men, while men are expected to excel in everything, even if it means devouring the women around them.
This is an exceptionally brilliant novel that exposes the poison beneath the sugary coating of romance novels from the female protagonist's perspective. Every heroine in a sweet, coquettish romance novel struggles to survive in an environment surrounded by wolves; one wrong step and she loses herself, her identity, and becomes an appendage to some man. I highly recommend this book to all women; it's very easy to read, and you're sure to gain something from it.
Ahhh, it's so well-written! It perfectly captures the helplessness of a woman trapped in a past life and her revenge against the male lead in this life, disguised as love. The eerie, ghostly atmosphere is completely conveyed in the main text, but the interspersed memories of the female lead's past life add a touch of madness to this eerie feeling.
I initially thought it was just a typical "rags-to-riches" story about a woman who becomes a villain and then seduces a man, and I was even annoyed because the synopsis seemed to still include a romantic subplot between the female and male leads. I clicked in with the thought, "Why?", But after reading the first chapter, I realized it was absolutely, positively not that kind of story.
This is so well-written! The author is totally obsessed with the male lead. He's effortlessly and easily pampered by two outstanding women, becoming a carefree, spoiled little husband who takes on the heavy burdens and rescues him. CEO Jian really loves him so much; she's a total yandere, loving him means possessing him. I hope our little prince can always be immersed in the love of Sister Tian and CEO Jian! [Learned something new]
This book is a breath of fresh air on Tomato's page, exposing the hidden gender inequalities in reality and depicting the struggle of women's transformation. Every event the female protagonist experiences resonates with me; the author is truly amazing.
I cried throughout the entire film. I love the metaphor in the character's name: Wuxia (meaning "Flawless Baby"), we feel sorry for you, love you, empathize with you, and we will always stand by your side. You are not mud rotting in a pond; a glorious life belongs to you, the world belongs to you. The world demands that you remain pure and flawless.
