I am writing this without read the extras, so my thoughts maybe will change.

How I can describe this story? Weird possibly is the word for me... because that's how I felt reading the whole story, but not in a bad way of weird ... more like a ´ wtf is going on? This is so cool´ form of weird.
 
If i need to be honest even when i understood all the story I felt like I was losing something, perhaps was the translation that I read (I am not complaining ... thanks for the translation) or maybe was me that had the mind in the clouds.

I really like the story, was fun to read, specially was new to read for me, I really enjoyed read about Shen qingqiu and all his complaining, I enjoyed so many characters ... Liu Qingge was so far one of my favorites.

Luo Binghe was adorable but excuse me my Spanish Como me sacaba de quicio este pana... but i love him. 

I would have love that the author explore more the relationship between Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu (romantically talking) because i felt (maybe again ...I was lost in translation) that the development was so fast (specially the development in Sqq). 

The CHANGE between the female characters in the main story and in the Sqq story was so BIG and cool ... 1point for that

5.0

loved that the system would constantly interfere within certain situations making them worse, or progress further in an unexpected way. Shen QingQiu's reactions were hilarious, there were many scenes that I couldnt help but laugh at or suddenly pause to reread since it was so unexpected. I still feel horrible for the original Binghe but was it necessary to have him in for just a couple paragraphs before he vanished away? and how was he able to transfer over to the current world into Luo Binghe's dreamscape in the first place? (im curious but im reading too much into this..)
I liked how everything clicked in place at the end though, Shen Qingqiu really did fulfill all plot holes and as the reader i was able to finally be informed on some of the character's backstories. it still didnt right the original Shen's abuse towards the og Luo but it gave an understanding of where his envy had been brought up from, and made me switch up my mindset about him a little bit. I love this book so much, its my go-to comfort novel
