Forbidden Rose

This book is quite good, but a bit long. Life isn't always smooth sailing; everyone experiences all sorts of joys and sorrows. I was given to my current adoptive parents after birth. My adoptive father is good to me, but my adoptive mother has never treated me like her own child.

After reading dozens of chapters, the relationships within the He family remain unclear. Their attitude towards the male lead is never mentioned, only repeatedly emphasized that he's an illegitimate child—whose? He Dongren's? Xie Mulian is incredibly audacious, still so affectionate with him! Furthermore, the female lead is constantly teasing the male lead, but her true motives are unknown.

The strengths are the excellent language and well-developed characters, but the weaknesses are also obvious, with many plot points feeling highly illogical. The catalyst is the male lead's amnesia, and the female lead's quest for revenge and to uncover the truth behind her mother's death ultimately proves futile.

Male lead: After enduring years of humiliation and hardship in the He family to finally bring them down, he discovers he's an orphan. Female lead: Incompetent, only a hindrance. Her painstaking investigation yielded meaningless results, indirectly harming her father. Female lead's father: Love-struck, treating his second wife like a maid; no wonder she seeks revenge on them.

It's a really good novel, so why do I feel like so few people are reading it? The ending is so unpredictable.

It's so good! I love the "everyone's a villain" premise.

The author clearly put a lot of effort into the writing, and it's truly a wonderful read.

It's too long.

It's really good.
