Why Is the Boss Like This?

She's a good girl, you brat, cherish her! Besides, your girlfriend clearly doesn't like you, and even thinks you and her brother are having an affair, hahaha!

This is not loving your daughter, it's harming her.

I found a gem of a story, and just a quick rant: the stepmother's premarital affair is really... A bit much.

So this princess isn't entirely ignorant, is she? She knew Shen didn't want to marry her, and she must have known something about what her father had done. Or was she really blind to the guards' excessive harassment when they were watching fireworks on the bridge? Or maybe she missed it that one time, but there must have been many similar incidents over the years that she hadn't seen? And yet she accepted it all so readily, making herself seem so innocent and naive. [Eye roll]

It was so good I finished watching it in one day.

No matter how open-minded people were in ancient times, it was really unreasonable for unfamiliar men and women to have such physical contact (unless the female lead was a doctor), especially since the male lead was currently the female lead's friend's fiancé.

Is it Lin Shaofan or Lin Xifan? Chapter 20 says Lin Xifan. The typos are ridiculous.

It's pretty good; the character descriptions are all quite good.

Why do I feel like the plot is jumping around?

The phrase "" (chā qiáng rén yì) used in this chapter means "barely meeting expectations," which is somewhat inappropriate in this context.
