Curator note
Perhaps my expectations were too high, so I was slightly disappointed after reading it. It felt like it was all about the eroticism and no real emotional depth. While the stream-of-consciousness erotica was well-written, it was also a bit mentally taxing. Especially the female lead, who didn't show much emotional development. The childhood sweetheart side story, on the other hand, was quite good, and you could clearly feel the affection between the two.

The beginning was mainly about the romance, which was quite good. The later parts focused on business and farming, which was alright, and I managed to finish watching it. At the end, there was a twist on the love and hate of the previous generation.

★★★★★ Absolutely fantastic! Unlike other online novels that are overly dramatic, this one is genuinely a normal slice-of-life story where feelings develop naturally over time. The female lead is incredibly adorable. The only downside is the slightly abrupt ending, especially considering the engagement; it would have been better if it had progressed to the wedding.

★★★★★ Even with two or three people? But you know what! This is even better than with three (or two) people. Short, concise, and excellent. The male protagonist in the parallel world seems a bit more pitiful, but the original male protagonist wasn't perfect either, so combining them makes a good pair (?).

The first half, set in the human world, is full of scheming, backstabbing, and deceit—a bunch of disgusting characters that make you angry just watching.

The male and female leads don't have many scenes together at the beginning, but their relationship develops more significantly in the middle, and it's very sweet from then on.

It seems that the fates of villainous emperors in all novels are never tragic enough; it's clear that the emperor's position granted him too many privileges.

The writing is really good, and the female lead's character is excellent. However, the romance feels a bit disjointed. The two don't have a clear ending, though the general direction is clear. I think the most problematic part is the initial marriage arrangement; many things weren't explained clearly. It seems the female lead was approached by the male lead's mother who proposed a contractual marriage. But didn't the male lead propose it himself? Or did he delegate it to his mother, but we don't know exactly how? These four contracts, which couldn't be known by outsiders, were never discovered in the end. What was his mother thinking in the first place? Why did she make these demands on the female lead? Was it to protect her son? Did she know her son liked the female lead, so she forced her to marry him, but prevented her from reciprocating his feelings? The male lead should have known about these four contracts at some point; it seems that this would have made things easier for their relationship. And as the female lead felt at the beginning, these four contracts were indeed quite humiliating for her. For the male lead, as the beneficiary, to have their relationship progress, he had to "atone" for these four contracts.

The story gets increasingly heavy as it progresses, but the ending is quite satisfying.

This is a rare story that's somewhat realistic; the male and female leads aren't stanzas, each has their own romantic histories, and the author's writing is decent. While I still don't really like the "prodigal son returns" trope, this one is alright. The male lead did indeed sacrifice a lot, which was worthwhile. However, the female lead's ten-year unrequited love for the male lead is a bit exaggerated, even though she gave up on him for a long time. In this relatively logical story world, I feel this is somewhat illogical.

The princess and the female lead were innocent. Although the male lead didn't kill her, he contributed significantly to her tragedy in the previous life. Therefore, most people say the male lead is good, but I disagree. It's only right that he's good to the princess; he deserves it, it's what he owes her. However, I also understand that most people are selfish, and what he did was already quite remarkable. Perhaps I'm just hypocritical; even after watching the second life, I still feel the male lead wasn't good enough, or rather, the female lead sacrificed too much. But this is also true; the world is inherently unfair to women, always making them give more.

The male and female leads are both adorable. They're actually so sweet, it's almost too much to watch! All the twists and turns in the story stem from the previous generation, specifically the male lead's parents. The male lead's father is absolutely disgusting; it's all his fault that the male and female leads in this installment have all those problems. And that mistress—she didn't have much screen time, but she was disgusting enough. I can't imagine how disgusting she was in the previous installment.

Actually, there wasn't much romance overall. I preferred the main couple; they were very cute. However, the side couples had far more screen time, probably because the main couple had so many dramas to create. The main content was indeed primarily about gossip, but surprisingly, it was quite interesting and kept me watching.
