I need to talk about Su Sanlang's dialogue because honestly, he's the funniest character in this entire novel and I'm not even being dramatic. When he sells the fish at nine wen instead of the agreed six and his brothers are just standing there losing their minds — 'Third brother, didn't you say even six wen per catty was expensive?' And he just casually explains his whole pricing strategy like he's been running a business his whole life. The man is a natural salesman and the author writes him with such distinct voice. Then there's the scene with his wife Tao Xiu where he sneaks up and says 'Hey, honey' and she jumps and threatens him about scaring the little treasure. His response? 'Come on, I didn't! Our little girl saw me as soon as I came in.' The shamelessness is immaculate. And when she calls him out for wanting her money — 'You're so stingy' — he just rolls his eyes and leaves. This man has zero filter and I love him for it. Old Madam Su's voice is equally distinct. 'You brat, what do you know?' snapping at her son about pricing, then immediately pivoting to 'You got your cleverness from me' while glancing at her husband. The matriarch energy is real. And Su Dalang, the honest slow brother who just wishes he could bury his head in the ground when his younger brother haggles — his silence speaks louder than most people's dialogue. The author gives every character a recognizable voice. You could read a line and know exactly who said it without any tags.
I have to talk about the TCM clinic scene because the visual comedy in this passage is absolutely film-quality. Xi Xingye parking far away because the pink phantom car is too conspicuous, then weaving through alleys like he's in a spy movie. Covering himself from head to toe. Sneaking into the clinic, locking the door, closing the windows. The old doctor pushing up his glasses like he's about to deliver a diagnosis and Xi Xingye is over here nearly choking on his own denial. And then the scene cuts to the assistant and the old doctor having a completely separate conversation about whether Xi Xingye actually has problems, with the assistant saying "Seven times in one night is exaggerated. Three times is fine—no wheezing" and the doctor nodding wisely. I literally screamed. The doctor then says "Better give him some supplements" and the assistant worries it might be overdoing it, and the doctor just chuckles and says "How else would this guy succeed?" This scene is doing three things at once: it's hilarious, it's building Xi Xingye's character through his embarrassment, and it's establishing the old doctor as this wise, knowing figure who sees right through everyone. The world feels alive because even the background characters have opinions and personalities. Then it cuts to the Xi residence where the gossip has exploded into five different versions of the same story. The staff is speculating wildly. The old master is jumping for joy mixed with concern. The butler is being sent on a mission with forty-year-old vitality wine. This is a full ecosystem of characters reacting to one man's misunderstanding, and every layer adds to the world. The contrast between the opulent Xi residence and the gritty abandoned factory where Shen Qingci interrogated her family members shows that this story exists in a world with real class divisions and real danger, even while the rom-com elements are running full force.
"Mom—" That's it. That's the entire line. Three letters, a dash, and the whole chapter collapses inward. I need to talk about this moment because it wrecked me. Liang Yan has spent two years building this new identity—divorced, independent, starting over with her Wolf Fangs, laughing at her own fan club name. She's finally not afraid of being left behind. The very first line of this section says so explicitly: "The child she once was had been terrified of being left behind. But the grown-up Liang Yan—she was no longer afraid." And then one phone call undoes all of that in three seconds. What killed me most was the physical description after the call. She just stood there, frozen, staring at nothing, her arm slowly dropping to her side with the phone still in hand. No screaming, no crying, just this absolute stillness. Like her body didn't know how to process the fact that the woman who abandoned her is now calling her for help. And Jiang Mu—oh god, Jiang Mu. He knew she was alone, he knew she spent every New Year's Eve by herself, and yet he still wasn't prepared for this. When she asks him to come to the police station with her, it's not about the money or the drama. It's about not facing her mother alone again. After everything, after two years of building a life without that person, she still needs someone to hold her hand in that corridor. The tragedy isn't that her mother is in trouble. The tragedy is that Liang Yan's first instinct isn't anger—it's obligation. She asks "How much is it?" before she's even processed what's happening. That's not love. That's conditioning. And the author makes us feel every single year of that conditioning in one sentence.
I just finished reading chapters 1 through 3 and I need a moment. The pacing of this novel is absolutely perfect and I don't say that lightly. Chapter 1 is basically pure comedy — blind date disaster, crying, boss appears, bill gets paid. It's light, it's fast, it makes you want to keep reading. Then Chapter 2 slows down just enough to give us Lin Yue's living situation, her relationship with Qin Yan, and the Qing Jing conflict. It's a breather chapter but it's doing important work — establishing the domestic tension that will probably become a recurring source of stress for our protagonist. And then Chapter 3? Chapter 3 is where the author really flexes. We get the flashback to He Yuan's love at first sight, which recontextualizes everything that happened in Chapter 1. Suddenly his appearance in the café wasn't random — he noticed her before. The chapter moves between past and present seamlessly, and the transition from the dramatic flashback back to the present-day blind scene with the milk and the blinds is so smooth I barely noticed I was jumping between timelines. What I appreciate most is how the author controls the information flow. We learn about Lin Yue's job history, her part-time work, why she applied to be a secretary, her salary situation — all of this is woven into the narrative naturally rather than dumped on us. The same goes for He Yuan's background as the eldest son and successor of Hengxing Group. None of it feels like exposition; it all comes out at moments when it's relevant to what's happening. The chapter endings are also well-timed. Chapter 1 ends with the awkwardness of He Yuan potentially thinking she has another blind date. Chapter 2 ends with the dream about eating five hamburgers (hilarious and weirdly endearing). Chapter 3 ends with Zhou Yunce's internal monologue about helping water the iron tree. Each ending gives you a reason to immediately start the next chapter.
I am really loving this book, the content is so original and the plot is one of a kind. What can I say about Bosco...well he is an amazing individual who brings the story to life. I am glad I came across this book.
I hope the witch will play a bigger role in the upcoming chapters! And also Nikolai, I don't like him but he's pretty strong too, I hope our beloved ML gets him

It is not the best novel in the category if I must say so. Bad jokes, which pop out every next moment from the MC's mouth, and many repetitive moments, like exams, etc.Well, it may be worth reading for Indian readers (not everyone), at least for me. I'll be waiting for the updates.
damn author you really made it a bloody one....
If you enjoy a vanilla story with a yandere girlfriend, this novel might be for you. This novel also features an interesting antagonist, Penny Prince. I just hope the author doesn't kill off that character too soon. The novel follows Ren Ross, who possesses an extra character that was killed by her fiancé, Lilith, in the original story. As the third son of a minor noble family, at the beginning of the story, Ren starts training to become stronger. The MC doesn't have a system, which I'm glad for, as it often makes things too easy for the protagonist. The beginning of the story is a bit weak, introducing a power system where some people receive gifts. The MC obtained bloodbinding after a trial. His fiancée has a divine gift that interferes with souls. Due to her lack of emotional control, she can kill people just by touching them, which makes many people afraid of her and leads her to become a villainess. To prevent his own future death and his fiancée from becoming a villainess, the MC begins to rehabilitate her. In the process, his fiancée becomes possessive and obsessed with the MC. The MC is smart and cunning but still makes some mistakes and is almost killed many times by the brilliance of Penny Prince, which keeps the story in suspense. Honestly, Penny Prince is more intriguing as a character than the MC, lol. Perhaps the author should consider focusing more on the villain's story later on.
Yeah dope. would love to read it when have more chapters
