“A Match Made in Splendor: The Matriarch and Her Five Husbands”
- Female lead Lin Wanxing: CEO of a modern cosmetics group and a master’s graduate in history, she accidentally transmigrates into the legitimate daughter of the wealthy Lin family in the Dayin Dynasty. She is breathtakingly beautiful, her birth parents died young, and she inherited the family business independently, with no troublesome relatives holding her back. In this matriarchal world, she has a golden finger in cosmetics research and development and business management. Bold, clear-eyed, and perceptive, she knows how to build a career and how to cherish those she loves. Her motto is: “I’ll spoil my husbands, and I’ll decide how to live my life.”
- Setting: Dayin is a world where women hold power and men are subordinate, and one woman marrying multiple husbands is common. Men take pride in winning the favor of a worthy woman. Because of their unusual circumstances, many exceptional men with talent, looks, or family standing struggle to find a match due to minor flaws, such as poor health, a broken engagement, or an aloof personality. They become the kinds of men the female lead can recognize as hidden gems.
The names of each chapter are nice and poetic. The characters are three-dimensional and I like those who don't compete for favor.
