Transmigrated into the Villainess Number Two of a Romance Novel

Because I personally really enjoyed this novel, I'll offer my subjective review. Well, the book got off to a great start, the writing is good, and it reads very smoothly and naturally. It has almost no flaws and is a very realistic novel. The female protagonist (actually male) isn't perfect; she has flaws, such as laziness, sloppiness, and a bit of clumsiness, but these only make her endearing. Her values ​​are very sound, but not in a sanctimonious way. When she sees a stray kitten, she'll only feed it briefly, without being overly compassionate. When faced with someone with gender dysphoria, she won't mock them, but rather...

Let me talk about this book first. I really love this book; reading it gave me the same feeling I had when I first read a "marriage change" novel years ago. It's rare for a book to make me so emotionally invested, but this one did. The sweet parts made me roll around in bed, and the angsty parts sent my blood pressure soaring and I needed an ambulance. While this book isn't perfect, its flaws don't detract from its overall excellence. I'd give it a 9 out of 10 (it's not quite 9 yet, so I'm giving it a 10). Now let's talk about the controversial Qi Yu. I'm quite similar to Qi Yu in one way: my father passed away when I was seven (from stomach cancer). Unlike Qi Yu's mother, my dad didn't leave a will. He just...

First of all, this book is a very comfortable read with almost no flaws. The protagonist isn't an elite among the top few, but an ordinary person, making it easy for readers to empathize with him. Furthermore, unlike most stories about rebirth where the protagonist denies their identity for an extended period, this one doesn't. The plot is also close to real life, and both the main and supporting characters are intelligent. The protagonist isn't a brainless saint, nor is he a self-centered egoist who doesn't care about others—this character setup is great! There are no angst-filled moments, nor is it overly sweet. (I'm not good at summarizing, so please don't be offended if you disagree.)...

The male lead's character is poorly written; his motivations are utterly flawed. In a romance novel, the male lead's reason for choosing his lover isn't affection, but rather the ownership of a bell. If the bell hadn't been given to Deng Yingyue by Li Manzhi but to someone else, would Qi Yu have abandoned Deng Yingyue and eagerly chased after someone else? To justify Qi Yu's rejection of Li Manzhi, at least some groundwork should have been laid for his relationship with Deng Yingyue. However, to protect the Deng-Wu couple, this was omitted, resulting in Qi Yu's motivations being completely illogical. No matter what the male lead does to salvage the situation, it's futile. Because in the readers' minds, this male lead has already...

The storyline is indeed quite good, but Qi Yu left a very poor impression on me. Therefore, I can't give it a perfect score, nor a high score; I can only give it a middle one. I don't know how the author will try to redeem it later, but I feel that no matter how Qi Yu reconciles with Li Manzhi, he still owes her a debt of gratitude. In Qi Yu's eyes, Yingyue's indifference towards the bell boils down to two possibilities: either she forgot their past promise, or she doesn't think the childhood promise is important. (Because Qi Yu feels the bell is important to both of them, it's unlikely that someone else gave it to Yingyue, or perhaps he simply doesn't want to acknowledge it). If it's the former...

Her original soul was male, but after transforming into a female body, she finally fell in love with a man, going from being unable to accept it to gradually recognizing her feelings. That man is also incredibly dense; even though the female lead's position in his heart is growing stronger, he's still fixated on a nonsensical promise from when he was five, chasing after his imagined "white moonlight." At least in his subjective perception, even though the female lead's status is rising and becoming clearer, the "white moonlight" still ranks first! Even more foolishly, this "white moonlight" is mistaken for someone else—it's actually still the female lead herself! It's infuriatingly funny. We're almost at 200 chapters now...

Haha, it's hard to believe this book is so old. I'm over twenty now. Time flies by so fast since I became an adult. Are all adults like this? Losing their sensitivity to time?

I'm so angry! Why did I even pick up this book in 2024?! The author hasn't updated in two years, why am I still reading it here?! And it's making me feel so frustrated!

Honestly, at least half of the reason Zhizhi and Qi Yu's relationship has turned out this way is Qi Yu's father's fault. As a time traveler, Zhizhi successfully avoided the original story's plot, and basically had no interaction with Qi Yu, let alone a romantic relationship. If Qi Yu's father hadn't forced him to marry Zhizhi, Qi Yu wouldn't have had much of a connection with her. Even if they did end up together, it would only be after Qi Yu actively learned that Zheng Yingyue wasn't the owner of the bell and fell for Zhizhi without knowing the truth, or after Qi Yu chose to abandon his promise regarding the bell and pursued Zhizhi. It shouldn't be like this, where his father knew the truth and deliberately kept it from him...

This is one of the most enjoyable stories I've read. The protagonist's inner thoughts are portrayed very well, and her personality is great (she's such a tsundere; just thinking about how she clearly has feelings for the male lead but stubbornly refuses to admit it makes me laugh). The first volume felt quite slow, but there was a lot of groundwork laid, and the characters were well-developed—a success. The plot was also quite reasonable, the characters were intelligent, and it felt realistic. The second volume really got better. The protagonist struggled a bit, but later began to understand her feelings. The focus shifted to their daily lives, and there were more sweet moments; their everyday interactions were adorable...
