When the former FL shows up making crazy accusations and wants to talk with MC in private, MC refuses. After all, why would she go off with some woman who appears to be mentally deranged, and any curiosity she has about what the woman is saying can be resolved by talking it out with ML. Plus, she trusts ML's personality and that he didn't do anything wrong. Communication and trust of your significant other's common sense! Wow!

randomly you see characters like that. One can relate to most of their decisions. E.g. They can let go, can decide on things calmly, aren't overly dramatic

In fact, there were a few times where I felt a little fed up with some of her decisions or tunneled thinking. Also, there weren't much character development for her except for when she first transmigrated. However, I really do respect the Author's approach in the FL's rationality. I also really liked that the relationships that Su Rui had didn't feel super shallow. I could tell that the FL may joke about her relationships with the ML (Male Lead) or their friends, but she did take them to heart.

And although she did start to show her real self to our ML, I don't consider that to be character development. Rather, I would say that she relaxed. We, as readers, already knew she had a playful side. The playful part of her already existed, she just held that part of herself back. And for me, character development means that the character has gained something new, whether it be in personality or in mindset.

This is me speaking from a critical reader's point-of-view. When it comes to character development, or to just being a multi-dimensional character in general, Gu Yu Cheng really shines. We do have sort of a preconceived opinion of him since we're following the FL's perspective, but her evaluation of him was true. Throughout the story, he slowly breaks free from that shell. He's still that same kind of person from before, but that makes it all the more easier to see how he had changed when it came to certain matters (like his relationship with Su Rui).

From a subjective reader's point-of-view, I think he's a really good man. He's "patient" in love and knows how to properly reflect on his mistakes. He also doesn't have a messy relationship history, is successful in life, has a pretty decent EQ, and is an expert in his own field. What more could I, as a reader, ask for in an ML, really?

Glad that the author didn't focus on rebirthed OG heroine who was delusional... and didn't affect the leads' relationship except for the pushing incident.

The last 2 extra chapters were added bonus tho. I love the ML's reaction when he shortly travelled in another parallel world... and how Gu An An (their kid) travelled to another world and met 40yo Gu Yu Cheng in the 1st life.
