This female lead is seriously insane. The male lead, whom she'd only met four or five times, saved her. They had no prior romantic relationship, were never engaged, and were just acquaintances from the same village. When she thanked him, she kissed him on the cheek.
Seriously, the female lead is practically a useless person who can't live without a man. Everything she does is tied to the male lead. The first time she picks wild vegetables, she runs into him and he saves her; the first time she hosts a banquet, he speaks up for her; the first time she does business, she happens to sell to his escort agency and ask him to speak on her behalf. The interactions are so jarringly forced; I can't even skip ahead to see the career development.
I dropped this novel. I read about twenty chapters, and the beginning was alright, but later on the female lead's intelligence seemed to disappear, giving off a "being sold out and still helping the seller count the money" feeling. Many novels are like this.
It's on the cover and has been adapted into a TV series. Why are there so few comments?
This story is great in every way, but the character settings are truly baffling. The female lead, who transmigrated to ancient times, has lived two lives, meaning she's probably in her thirties or forties by now. And you're telling me she can't outsmart a teenage girl?! She gets tricked by a scheming woman every single time.
Before clicking in, I saw a warning that the female lead was naive and had a negative IQ, easily fooled and clueless. I didn't expect her to be this clueless... I can't handle Gourmet Bungo Stray Dogs, this is a strong turn-off.
I watched this TV series, it was really good! (。・ω・。)ノ♡
Don't even mention ancient times; even in modern times, thanking a man isn't something you can just casually do by kissing him.
I watched the TV series; the web series is very well made.
The male lead on the cover doesn't seem handsome enough; he doesn't match the description in the novel.
