It's a good read, a classic example of a forced marriage, but after finishing it, I felt so sorry for the second male lead, who was so innocent and pitiful, just like Runyu. His wife was taken away, and he regretted not coming back sooner. The female lead is also very pitiful; she made a deal with the male lead to survive and avoid being sentenced to death.
The first five chapters seemed cliché, and I thought it would be another story of the male lead being attracted to a woman. But starting from chapter six, I realized it wasn't like that at all; the male lead is incredibly ruthless. The female lead is well-developed; she knows how to fight back and is pragmatic. It's quite good.
It's tied! So good! 🤭 The male lead has the female lead completely under his thumb now. I really want to see a plot twist, and I want to see the male lead break down.
It's so beautiful, I can't get enough of it! Please don't overwork yourself, but also don't be idle, okay? 💕 I actually thought it was pretty good at the beginning, but so far it's basically all about torturing the female lead, and I don't know when it started to torture the male lead. I wouldn't recommend this if you're a fan of female leads, you'll get really angry.
I really love it! I started reading "The Divorce" and continued until I reached Dong Li Jing. I've read other works too, but none of them are finished yet. I love this one; I really love this kind of power dynamic where the strong bow down. The female lead isn't particularly strong, but it's believable.
The writing is good, but the male lead is extremely rough with the female lead in the beginning, practically forcing her. I would have really criticized it if there hadn't been some abuse of the male lead later on.
It's quite good. It's the kind of story where the male lead uses cunning and force to seize the female lead's husband. The female lead's husband dies, and she's forced to die with him. Not wanting to die, she seduces the male lead, and then she can't shake him off. There's also a lot of explicit content throughout the story.
The charm of this book lies in the fact that neither the male nor female protagonist has a perfect personality; they are practically opposites. Therefore, the conflicts and sparks of affection between these two are truly captivating. Xie Xun is indiscriminately violent towards everyone except Ning Yu. While he's not gentle in matters of the heart, he always prioritizes Yu Yu's safety.
I'm back again! This is the third book by this author I've read. It's still the same familiar style. Looking forward to Yu Bao teaching the male lead a lesson later! 😏😏😏
I absolutely love Mo Ning's novels!!! I've read every single one of her books, and my favorite characters are Dongling Jing and Yan Bei Mo!!! Could this book please have more sweet interactions between the male leads? The first half was mostly just fighting! 😢
