The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

rebeccazh's review against another edition

EDIT 16/4/20: reread this because the quarantine is giving me much more time and i was nostalgic. this is such a wild ride! was thought-provoking for me in terms of thinking about the Chinese bl 'blackened' character type, the mbti types of the two characters, etc. sqq's treatment of lbh really makes me wince sometimes, lol...

I really enjoyed this, but it feels less polished and tight as compared to mdzs. There's some dubcon / problematic content in this one. I can tell that this is her first novel and it's quite interesting to see the less polished storytelling. Now, on to her latest book, Heaven Official's Blessing.
