Wang Dian grips the wine bottle and tells them to rise. Being an emperor from the start isn’t so bad.

   It has absolutely nothing to do with the synopsis... The entire narrative style is primarily straightforward and monotonous, making it quite boring to read. The only satisfying part is the female lead's rampage, but then it delves into her past, which makes it less enjoyable.

   ① I'm really upset that this way of writing it isn't the 'n' and the 'p'... ②It's a bit strange that the original novel keeps mentioning the original protagonist (uke) and several male leads (seme) in certain plot points, and the uke is an important character in the original novel. ③ It feels like the power of the old woman is fighting against the power of the career-obsessed submissive. ④ It's actually quite good, but I'll put it aside for now and I don't know if I'll ever watch it again.

   Overall, it's a very good and enjoyable read... But I really disliked one of the male leads who seemed extremely disrespectful to the female lead, doing things unilaterally without considering her wishes, and the female lead had no power to resist. Another book by the same author, "Legend of the Hidden Identity Female Lead," is better because the female lead can control all the male leads.

    The synopsis says the main character is a popular, unpopular guy who's the bottom... But it feels like the plot shifts focus to the top later on, constantly mentioning him and his two fathers, making the bottom seem all alone.
