⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely loved it. Hua Cheng and Xie Lian are adorable. They have my heart. I love the way they implicitly trust each other no matter what. It's so rare in fiction nowadays to find leads with such an unshakable trust in each other. No third-act breakup because of pointless drama. They are there for each other and will always be. The tension and separatin comes from external situations and plot devices which I love.
The book-long flashbacks were annoying at times as a first read, especially when the information had already been given to us and I couldn't wait to get back to the present.(if they were sprinkled in it would have been more digestible yet I understand the decision behind grouping them). I still love them though and appreciated them way more in my re-read as I didn't have the urge to come back to the present as I already knew what was going to happen.
Also, so much pain haha.
