A Middle-Aged, World-Weary Uncle and a Cynical Girl

I've been following this book for a year, and it's finally finished! People often say that the one who falls in love first is the loser. It's precisely because of my boundless love for you that I can't accept the fact that you don't love me. Some people are destined to wait, like Zhao Anqing. Some people are destined to be loved, like Yu Baibai.

To be honest, I'm tired of those wish-fulfillment novels where the protagonist is always right and defying everyone. Now, I find non-mainstream novels with a starting point like divorce, breakup, and being cheated on more engaging. However, my main purpose in reading these kinds of stories is to see how the protagonist retaliates and torments the female lead, similar to "Please Behave Yourself…

The rest was alright, not as good as some reviews suggested. The biggest flaw was the ending for Han and Du. It's not that I'm petty or can't stand seeing them happy; they're the most disgusting and vicious characters in the whole book. But in the end, the author gave them a happy ending, and it was only because the male protagonist willingly endured the pain and injustice to preserve their…

Don't read it, it's seriously off-putting. This is the first time I've written a comment after reading books for so many years, and it's truly disgusting. The author has a thing for cuckoldry, and the story starts with cuckoldry; it's really disgusting.

The book is excellent, the best I've ever read in this genre. The plot is excellent, well-paced and avoids any overly aggressive or disruptive writing style. (This is unlike many similar books where plots and pacing are largely the same, just variations on a theme, with the male and female leads quickly becoming romantic; coincidental encounters; and hero-saves-the-damsel situations—things that…

Every book has its poison, and I didn't mind this one being a little toxic, until I saw the author's forced and awkward praise—that's when my composure crumbled. 😰

I've roughly finished reading it; it's yet another pretentious work by a pretentious, ignorant author lacking common sense. "Repay evil with kindness, but how will you repay kindness?" This is our tradition, yet it's being slandered as someone who loves wish-fulfillment stories and lacks depth? And that ex-wife and the adulterer—did they suddenly receive some kind of divine intervention later on, suddenly becoming indifferent to money and embracing love? It's laughable.

Honestly, this book really resonated with me. I first came to this book through "I'm Afraid My Rented Girlfriend is Too Cute," recommended by Jia Dan. I started reading it with a try-it-out mentality, but after just the first chapter, I was completely overwhelmed. All the other male leads were so argumentative and difficult; Jiang Jun was having such a tough time.

Currently, I like Yu Baibai. I don't know if she's really as unrestrained as described before; I can't predict how things will develop. Although this is a realistic story, I hope she's a good girl, a perfect person. That way, it will give people something to look forward to and something to aspire to.

The family conflicts are particularly toxic. The daily life depictions are quite good. If I reach the disciple level in terms of fan value, it means I've survived; if not, it means I've been poisoned to death.
