   The story is logically consistent, and I especially liked how the protagonist's time-travel premise was handled at the beginning. Yuezhi is such an adorable little cat, and I found the "green tea" part very enjoyable to read.

   It's an excellent comedy, but the sense of satisfaction diminishes a bit after the protagonist's salary increases in the later stages. Overall, though, it's still very good.

    Oh, can I say this? Actually, I initially started reading it because it was a bit... ( )... But Xia's self-revelation and the tragedy of her brother and sister-in-law really surprised me.

    It's a very cute story, but Madoka likes to pretend a lot, which sometimes makes me a little nauseous (). Otherwise, it's great [keep it up]. The main character is also incredibly hardworking and competitive. But the author's updates are really inconsistent! I've been saving up for a long time but haven't saved up much.

    It's a very good period novel, but the author's own choice of words and sentence structure is very old-fashioned (I'm not sure, I haven't read many old-fashioned novels). The author frequently uses minor head control, especially when discussing serious business matters, which leaves me speechless.
