It's not a time-travel or rebirth story; it's a very peaceful slice-of-life story. The female lead recognizes her ex-fiancé's scumbag nature in the very first chapter and decisively breaks off the engagement. After spending more than 20 chapters with the male lead, she smoothly agrees to the marriage, a truly rare and mature character. The male lead is tough on the outside but warm on the inside.
It's pretty good, but I'm deducting one star because of the way the characters address each other. The female lead's father clearly has an older brother, but the story refers to him as "Lin Laoda" (Big Brother Lin). I really don't understand.
This novel is wonderful and engaging. The female protagonist is an excellent and capable woman from ancient times, but she is forced to break off her engagement, which damages her reputation. However, she remains strong and meets someone who loves and cares for her while doing business. In the end, they live a happy life together.
I haven't finished reading it yet, but it's well-written. It's just that the male and female leads are such saints 😅😅. The aunt lets her cousin steal her fiancé, and even visits her in jail and brings her things. When the grandparents ask for help from the shop, she gives them the job. Later, the aunt is also redeemed. She's such a saint 👍👍. And everyone in the shop is a paragon of virtue.
Judging from the first hundred chapters, there are no time-travel, rebirth, system, blindly filial parents, or impoverished families. There's also no deliberate attempt to create a "strong female lead" narrative through early abuse. While there are some sharp-tongued and opportunistic relatives and neighbors, they don't occupy much space.
Great read! Rating 9.8! A very enjoyable novel to read! The male and female leads are both independent and have sharp tongues 🤭 Both sets of parents are supportive too! Definitely a great book to read while eating 👍👍👍
It's well-written, and the money is earned little by little, which is much better than those time-travel stories where you start making money like crazy. There's no such thing as a free lunch; a steady, gradual approach is more realistic.
I'd give it five stars for now. The reason is that after reading so many Tanada fanfics, many suffer from a common problem: the early parts are good, but after the couple gets married, the plot either becomes bland and the romance gets cloying, it's just endless sex, or the female lead focuses on making money, making it seem like she's doing charity work, or the male lead gets more attention…
I highly recommend this book! It's so good, the writing is excellent, and the female lead is very career-oriented. I hope the author continues writing like this; I'll definitely keep reading and can't wait for updates!
The author didn't exaggerate! The money aspect is well-written!! The plot isn't exaggerated either! Worth watching.
