    Reader note

    A rare gem among ancient-style ensemble novels, it doesn't focus on romance but rather on the fluctuating fates of a group of women amidst chaos. All the characters are well-developed; there are no purely good or bad, and each person's choices are appropriate to their circumstances. I especially love the camaraderie among the women—Fu Ziyou, Qiu Mingzhu, and Lin Zhizhi, each with their own distinct character. The story has a somber tone and few mindless, escapist moments; those who prefer fast-paced, emotionally charged stories should proceed with caution. Those who can appreciate a slow-paced, ensemble-focused narrative should definitely give it a try.

    It's incredibly depressing. Reading this book makes me feel suffocated and upset.

The female lead is beautiful, has a great figure, and is incredibly pure-looking. She comes from a poor family and has grandparents to support. Someone like her would definitely attract the attention of wealthy people as soon as she enters university. It's just a matter of whether they're wealthy people with high moral standards or those with low moral standards.

    The first book has a low rating, but I recommend it. The male lead, Yu An, is incredibly gentle. Abandoned at age 5, he took in his younger brother, Huo Qingyan, at age 9, giving him everything he needed. Later, however, Huo Qingyan personally sent him to a detention center. After his release, he only wanted to die, not caring about being called disgusting by Huo Qingyan. He was repeatedly deceived, finally redeemed, only to be taken away again by his brother… In the end, the whale dies in the shallows, which is what he always wanted. He left behind the only person who truly loved him, and that person went to find him. "The little fish never swims out of the abyss. But in reality, Yu An is an optimistic, charming, and gentle whale. Whales suffocate at a depth of 6,400 meters. They live in the deep sea from a young age. From sea to abyss. From life to death.

    This book is highly recommended! No system! Not mindless! A harem novel with multiple female leads! The term "decisive and ruthless" has become overused; nowadays, even indiscriminate killing is considered decisive. This book is different; it has boundaries and isn't mindless indiscriminate killing. The male lead is a character who grows! Not only is the male lead not mindless, but the female leads and even the villains aren't mindless either. Each female lead has a different personality, and they aren't just given away mindlessly; the process of acquiring them is very vivid. It's a multi-female lead male-oriented novel with a very imaginative plot.

    Reader note

    After witnessing her brother Ling Heng's brutal murder, Hu Lingxian's first reaction was, "I don't want to eat meat today." While seemingly absurd, this is actually a microcosm of her extreme numbness and distorted personality resulting from long-term mental control. First, it's a manifestation of extreme emotional detachment. Under Ling Heng's shadow, Lingxian had long become a "puppet," completely desensitized to violence and death. Faced with the carnage, her voice was "empty," devoid of fear or screams, showing no basic emotional fluctuation, as if she were observing trivial matters unrelated to herself. Second, "meat" has a distorted symbolic meaning. Ling Heng's daily coercion of her to eat meat was a means of controlling her will. When she saw the bloody scene, her subconscious associated the carnage with the "meat" her brother forced her to eat, creating a conditioned reflex of rejection. Thus, she subconsciously expressed this distorted, weak aversion by saying "I don't want to eat meat." On a deeper level, this exposes her loss of self and moral judgment. Her world consisted only of Ling Heng; she didn't see the consequences of murder and had lost her independent personality. She neither ran away nor cried for help. Only after her brother committed murder did she offer a puppet-like response about "what to eat today." Ultimately, this became the norm in their morbid interaction. Ling Heng needed a mindless puppet, and Ling Xian's absurd answer was precisely the only "expression" she could make in this relationship. Ling Heng wasn't surprised at all; instead, he comforted her, telling her "don't be afraid," indicating that this twisted dialogue had become the norm. This sentence encapsulates Ling Xian's tragedy: she didn't know how to be afraid, nor did she know what else she could say besides the imposed daily responses.
