   The plot is rather thin, but still complete. The interactions between the male and female leads are entertaining, and the male lead's portrayal of a yandere and lewd character is quite amusing.

   The interactions between the male and female leads are all quite erotic. (That's part of the author's style, haha.) The plot has a sense of karmic cycle and destiny, which I even think could be elaborated upon, as this plot setting greatly enhances the entire story. However, due to space limitations, it's good that the events can be clearly explained. I found the romance a bit forced. I don't understand why the male and female leads suddenly fell in love later on, and the same goes for the original male lead's feelings for the female lead. I can even understand it. The female lead always wanted to go home and felt disgusted by the male lead disrupting her rhythm, even though when they first met, she mostly teased him. Although this article has a lot of [yellow hearts], it's still quite interesting.

When she first meets Ji Yuwei, the villain in the story who is known as the Black-Mud Fiend, he is only eighteen, a beautiful young man in the bloom of youth.

    While there was a certain discomfort stemming from the female protagonist being violated by an old man, to be honest, of all the eerie and sinister novels I've read, this one is the most chilling and sinister. The previous ones were just superficial displays of affection; this one is a true sea of ​​love and hate. I think the female protagonist did love the male protagonist, but in the face of male chauvinism, that feeling was insignificant. Reading it with a sense of morbid curiosity was truly eye-opening. By the end, I no longer agonized over the question of love; the female protagonist finally freed me from my dread!
