   There are a lot of scenes where other characters have a one-sided crush on the male lead, which I don't particularly like. Please, just let Gu Yening be the only one who's beautiful. I'm a die-hard fan of the main character. Second point: The supporting characters, who rose to fame by stepping on the protagonist in their past lives and sucked the protagonist's blood, are now able to debut peacefully alongside the protagonist in this life, which is very unsettling. The author is a terrifying protagonist-mistress; I can't see any love from the author for the protagonist.
