As a Lady Phantom Thief, I Will Never Surrender

The reason I was asked to read this book was because it was supposed to be a joke. But once I opened it, I was pleasantly surprised at every turn. The writing is excellent, and the plot is fantastic. The twists and turns and transitions are also handled well. I was also deeply captivated by the phantom thief. I have to admit, there's a reason she's better than me. Anyway, it's just great, but I'm not going to tell you why. I know, but I won't say, I'm just having fun~ If you want to understand this happy planet, buy the book and study it yourself~

First of all, I'm not a paid shill. Secondly, I've been reading for about nine years. For the first three years, I read mostly female-oriented novels, then male-oriented ones for the next three, and for the last three years, I've been browsing various sections. The author's choice of material isn't exactly different from the female-oriented novels I read in my first three years; it's practically identical. The female lead is a naive and sweet phantom thief, and the male lead is a rich but temperamental CEO. This book initially impressed me greatly, even though the beginning was similar to other female-oriented novels. Wu Feng was truly satisfying; you could say he's the only really good character in the book. Next, let me talk about the character flaws of the other characters. The male lead: [The following is a separate, unrelated point:] ...

I genuinely believe that being an author is not easy. When I reached chapter ninety, I noticed one or two people constantly spouting their own "profound theories" in almost every chapter, attempting to sway the author's writing direction. It made my blood pressure rise, let alone the author himself.

Seriously, anyone who can actually finish this book is a genius. Are people in 2021 really this patient?

Are all the positive reviews fake? This is extremely dangerous; proceed with caution.

Actually, it's not so bad that Li Yuhan became a "broken shoe" (a derogatory term for a woman who has been exploited). You, Qin Feng, have been a playboy for so many years, sleeping with countless women. Do you really expect to marry a pure and innocent wife in the end? Have some self-awareness as a playboy!

To be honest, the content of the first few dozen chapters feels quite disjointed from the later parts. Especially the early plot, I really don't know what they were trying to develop. The male lead, who is involved in the war and is also a CEO, is obsessed like a fool; the female lead, who is a phantom thief, is essentially a naive and innocent girl? They messed around in the beginning and then suddenly there's this domineering CEO falling in love with me story?

I'm suddenly starting to wonder if it's a bit abnormal for a grown man like me to be reading this overly female-oriented romance novel and still grinning like an idiot...

I initially started reading because of the "phantom thief" theme, but it turns out to be just a story about someone being wrongly imprisoned and trying to escape. The character development is okay, barely passable. However, the transition between the male and female leads' relationship felt too long, giving me the feeling of reading a female-oriented angst novel. Furthermore, in all the chapters so far, apart from the initial "phantom thief" element, the female lead has no real thieving skills; she seems like a naive newbie on her first mission. And in one chapter, she even calls herself "a phantom thief" and claims to be there to steal something. Most people wouldn't say that, right...?

Well... How to put it. I only read the first thirty or forty chapters. The female lead is a bit weak, not like a phantom thief. Also, the male lead either has been driven to a mental breakdown by his ex-wife (a genuine mental breakdown) or he has a low IQ; normal people don't have that kind of thought process. But given the male lead's background, I think at most he might be mentally ill, or some kind of psychological trauma that makes him so stubborn. Also, the domineering CEO vibe in the beginning was too strong. But it's still worth reading.
