   What I don't want to watch is that the female lead cooperates with the country but isn't honest, and the country also has purely exploitative intentions in this cooperation, disregarding the female lead's future.

   The premise was good, but the protagonist's social anxiety and pretentious attitude made me feel quite awkward. Furthermore, the mutual misunderstandings between the characters endlessly elevated the protagonist's status in everyone's eyes; after seeing this kind of portrayal so many times, it became rather tiresome.

    It looks pretty good, but there are some minor flaws in the details. The main issue is that the author doesn't update much these days, only one or two chapters every month or two. Is the author restricting access to premium content?
