The experience was satisfactory, but the FL (Female Lead) lacked significant character growth. She was initially portrayed as strong, self-assured, and accomplished in her career. However, in crucial situations, she failed to assert herself and relied heavily on the ML (Male Lead) and those around her to protect or solve her problems. This made her come across as completely passive and unable to stand up for herself.

I'm eagerly anticipating the upcoming update, so in the meantime, I've been reading it via machine translation, which is surprisingly easy to follow. Honestly, I'm having a good time with it. Once the translation is complete, I'll definitely revisit. The male lead is just perfect, and the female lead is amazing and inspiring. I adore them both! It's definitely worth reading.

Honestly, based on my experience, I would give it a modest rating of 3 out of 5 stars. The numerous 5-star reviews initially puzzled me because, in reality, the novel doesn't quite live up to those high expectations. To put it simply, it has an uneven pace that feels somewhat clunky.

Update: I stumbled upon the button to change my rating from 1 star to 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, but oh no, what a mistake! My clumsiness strikes again... ? I accidentally rated it 2 stars, and I'm deeply disappointed in myself. This novel deserves a full 6 out of 5 stars! If only there was a "undo" button. I devoured the raw chapters for three days and three nights, and it was an incredible experience. The pacing, emotional highs and lows, and storytelling were impeccable.

FL and ML make a fantastic power couple, with minimal unnecessary drama. Supporting characters are well-developed too, making the story even more engaging. Everything about the novel is outstanding.

The only regret I have is giving it a low rating. Friends, please give this book a read; it truly deserves more recognition.

Oh, this story seems intriguing and lighthearted! I can't imagine much else besides a gradual romantic development, as labeled. Nonetheless, the premise is quite appealing. I'm excited to see how the narrative unfolds :).

"OH MY GOSH! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I truly regret not reading this sooner; it's been on my list for almost six months, and it's that fantastic!! Our female lead's flirting skills are off the charts! The dynamic shifted dramatically when the male lead reversed the roles – both are incredible flirts! And don't worry, their love story focuses solely on each other; they handle third-party interference beautifully. I appreciate how the male lead addresses rumors by standing up for the female lead, like his ruthless treatment of Su Doctor and clarifying that he's the pursuer, not the pursued.

Additionally, I admire how the male lead pours his heart and limited time into the female lead, dedicating his free moments to her. He prefers she ask for help rather than doing everything alone, acknowledging her insecurities from her past. This story beautifully illustrates the importance of knowing your future with the person you love – if you're committed to spending your life together, understand the challenges that may come but choose them because they're worth it.

The side stories about the supermodel Chi Lu and screenwriter Bo Yu are a delightful, yet bittersweet, addition. Even though there are obstacles and distance, their connection is undeniable, and their love story tugs at the heartstrings. Chi Lu's struggle with balancing her parents' expectations and her relationship is relatable, and Bo Yu's promise to care for his parents in the future highlights the unique bond they share.

Although the main storyline is smooth sailing at times, the smaller details and lessons learned along the way make this book highly recommended!"
