She got away after people planned to have her killed, she gets away, finds a temporary home and stays there. She knows her brother is still trapped in their birthplace. The step mother is out for him next, she just complacently lives in her temporary home, UNTIL she lost her place of belonging and seeks out her former home, only to find her brother in a much miserable state than she had left him in. But ofc, she blames everybody else but herself, when she could've notified someone of her step-mother's ploys or warn at least her brother of the two faced act of their step-mother, but nope. Nothing, nada, UNTIL she herself, is in trouble, she goes and seeks help for herself, not to see her beloved family.

Just a few more reasons why I hate MC are:

- she manipulates literally everybody without blinking and a guilty conscience, these lies often have too many flaws and it just feels like she's a psycho (pathological lying)

-loves to monopolize her belongings or people that she treats as belongings *cough* more psycho tendencies (lack of empathy)

and as mentioned in the first spoiler, she's also quite incapable of loving, ANOTHER psychopath characteristic

-materialistic and vain

-impulsive extremely aggressive behaviour, goes again full psycho from time to time and on normal occasions acting like a white lotus

-will even risk the death of the people she claims she cares for to achieve her goals or save her own life

-acts always like she's got the moral high ground even towards a frigging new-born and extends to even her best friends that always had her best in their interest

-compulsive lying; it may or may not be that she's too lazy to explain herself like speaking words would cost her life span but she'd tossing lies left and right to twist the narrative (mostly to her advantage)

-cockblocks literally every couple like she acts it's for their own good, but she could try helping them instead of breaking them up, if she invest with the same effort to harm people into helping people i'd like her a bit more...

He began g*ooming her from the age of 6 and at least at the age of 11 he began harbouring s*xual interest in her that stayed firm during their parting for 2 years. At the age of her turning 13 he returned with strong signs of chasing and trying to posses her as an item, describing her like a indoor flower he raised with care and nobody else was allowed to touch.

And if that's not a clear declaration/indication for you that he's g*ooming her then IDK what else should make it obvious.

If she was ever "touched" she and the one who did the touching got serious repercussions and ML never shied away from impulsively hurting her either. So additionally to treating her like a pretty flower vase, it goes as far as low-key domestic ab*se. Besides that there's the classic chinese web novel background search, stalking, lurking and acting overly violent towards those who wronged her into a matter of life and death. With time, things even escalated to s*xual harassment, with MC clearly being confused and uncomfortable with his behavior but he had no signs of stopping any time soon.

The cherry on top has to be the perfunctory respect he has given her. Women back then obviously can be easily ruined by a rumor and he's gone many things that could've led to many many many misunderstandings.

He's publicly made moves on her, groped her even underneath the clothes, broke off her engagement with somebody else but had the opposition cancel the engagement (on the surface, it would seem like they're not satisfied with the bride) but also literally made her help with jerking him off like it's her responsibility BEFORE their marriage.

But hey, motherly author nerfs everybody's IQ so nobody has caught on except for those in need to harm them so their relationship progresses. Plot conveniences amirite?

OH, he r*ped her, twice. Scratch that, countless times, wouldn't give her v*gina a breather, kept going against her will, hurting and exhausting her nonstop to the point she can't walk on her own. A 16 year old by a 25 year old, yay. So romantic...

1. MC's vast knowledge over everything despite her growing up on a country side, and even if those are rumors, she strongly believes and relies in those

2. Suddenly fur allergies, earlier chapters she hugged a dog in a box for half a day that was meant as a present for the ML and no allergic reactions happened. Later on, author narrates of MC hugging a dog to sleep as a child and had strong allergic reactions to it and claims that allergy been with her both in first and second life.

Activate your ancient setting mind. There's nothing wrong for an adult man (in the ancient Chinese era) marrying a 15 years old girl (which is a marriageable age). Also there's nothing wrong for the ML to keep an eye on the MC practically for 10 years before he got to marry her. Hubby gotta keep future wifey in the palm of his hand or else someone will try to steal her, no?

ML is a sucker for MC. Their scenes together are so adorable (and naughty) if you don't consider their age differences (again, turn on your ancient era mind). The kissing scenes tho /Lord/

Ps. Forget all the antagonist characters, the one that needs a beating is the emperor. The empress deserves more than him ugh somebody kick him for me.

DID NOBODY ELSE THINK IT WAS UNSPEAKABLY CREEPY HE WAS EXCITED FOR HER FIRST PERIOD? 0_0

I really don't understand the main female lead's animosity towards the both of them. I understand taking revenge and feeling bad from your previous life, but her attitude and her actions really felt heavy-handed. I actually felt so bad for both Song Hui and Li Song.

Spoiler for Rebirth of Malicious... Military Lineage:

Compare Song Hui and Li Song to Pei Lang. Yes, Shen Miao hated him and was angry and took her revenge, but like... she did exactly what was reasonable. And he got what he deserved. But there was a limit, and she also eventually stopped hated him and torturing his heart with her animosity.

she's neither vicious or scheming or even implicated innocent people. Mind you, she died at 15 in her past life and live her like a normal rural girl with not much knowledge about the world, the first thing she did after being reborn is to protect herself and her brother against their step mother, her main focus aside of protecting her brother is learning of how to be like a "lady" from a noble house and beautifying herself. Despite her being dead once her mentality is still that of a 15 yrs old girl so don't expect her to be magnanimous or calm like other FL, she also didn't take any action against the evildoers in her past life unless they take action first. She may not have great moral but she's not evil

ML (Zhao zie) is older by 9yrs but the ML did not do anything to FL before she was 14! Being 15 and marrying someone in their 20s is Normal back then, some emperor in their 50s even have concubine this age so if you can't stomach that please stick with your modern novel

the romance is good, everything went smoothly for main characters, other side cp also good

this could be potentially a 5 star novel but the author is bad at executing the cannon fodders ending. The writing is good except that part, the "villain" ending especially the women were so unnecessary and s*upid. Their "retribution" far exceeded of what they committed. I don't know what the s*upid author was thinking. This novel is exactly those that have a very OP MC and ML and where the small villain cannon fodder suffer for "offending" the MC nor breath the same air as them and the vicious ML will use his power to suppress or kill them

Li song, this mf should be skin alive for treating his wife such a way. I hope he died a miserable life in every lifetime and he didn't deserve that s*upid second chance whatsoever in the Extra chapter

For example, the FL's half-sister, Wei Zheng, was married off to the cruelest male supporting lead and then arranged to be gang r*ped by him (probably repeatedly, since she only continues to get worse). The thing is, yes, she had joined her mother in disfiguring the FL in the past life, but that was due to her mother's instigations. In this life, she had some small schemes, but-- sigh. Anyway, there's also the girl that liked the ML. She waited for him for years, until she grew so old that it was difficult for her to marry. And because she had tried to chase off the FL with a few harmless words, she was married off to a fickle prince who beat her until she miscarried... LIKE. WTH. In the end, the FL didn't purposefully harm them, it's the author who wanted to provide contrast, I guess? Only, it ended up going all wrong. It just ruins the mood of the novel and makes the FL and ML look cruel. Which, I guess they are. That was never a secret from the beginning. *big sigh* anyway, yeah, that's a thing. It makes the novel really hard to like. No matter how good some parts may be, and how good the style of writing is, as a whole, it's a novel that can only be considered bad.
