I, a Sickly Villain, Am at the Mercy of Their Affection Levels

First, a word of caution: my motivation for writing this long review is simply to hope the book gets better and better. Some of my comments might be too harsh or incorrect, so please feel free to point them out, but also please be understanding. For those who don't want to read a long review, you can skip to the less lengthy section. I stopped reading abruptly at the author's launch notes. Why did I stop there? I've been reading books on Pineapple Bun for several years now, probably since the early days of Rhapsody, so I've seen my share of ups and downs. But this combination of stock market manipulation, character-driven plots, and no "what if" scenarios really took me by surprise. Why did I take it so far? Let me explain...

Either go for pure romance, or you've already transformed and you're still playing the stock market—doesn't that disgust the other female fans who like the protagonist? Isn't this just a disguised way of giving away girls? If you were just playing the stock market normally, I wouldn't comment, but you've already transformed and you're still doing this?

I was planning to watch it, but as soon as I heard about stock trading, I ran away. Pure romance is fine, harem is fine, I have no problem with that, but adding stock trading is truly disgusting.

Such a good book, and it turns out to be about stock trading? Outrageous!

This book surprised me. First, it suddenly ended; second, it was a stock market novel, but stock market novels are really low-class. No matter how it's written, I'll always feel the protagonist is a jerk. I only subscribed to the chapter about voting for a concubine, so I won't subscribe to the rest. That way, I'm protecting my wallet and my stomach.

I wouldn't recommend reading this later; it's a stock trading novel, and I used to hate stock trading novels in Japanese light novels. It's a shame this book was originally very much to my liking.

This is a complete failure. The writing style and premise were top-notch at first, but the whole thing turned into a stock market novel that's disgusting to read. It's the kind of story that makes you want to curse every time you read it. To be honest, I really don't understand what conflict there is between the author's claim of a modern novel and a harem story. Has the author been reading too much female-oriented content on Jinjiang Literature City?

Haha, so everyone's been cursing, huh? I can't hold it in anymore.

The stock trading article was alright, it was quite witty.

Putting aside the stock trading post, why is the original Ye Mengdie still around? I don't even want to think about how you're going to deal with this problem later; I'm afraid I'll be poisoned to death by it.
