★★★★ (honestly didn't understand the low rating but ig people have their own preferences. this danmei has every trope that i like lmao maybe that's... more>> why i kinda biased aha. also this danmei is so... mu su li and that alone is a plus point. not my most favorite mu su li's works but still a good and pleasant read, nonetheless). <<less

★★★★★ (my first ftyx's novel and oh boy. this novel got me out of my reading slump and im thankful for that. the plot? 10/10. the drama? 10/10. the conflict? 10/10. the betrayal? 10/10. the schemes and conspiracies? 10/10. the politics? 10/10. the MC? 10/10. the "villains"? 10/10. the character development? 10/10. the plot twist? 10/10. the DILFs? 10/10. the side characters? 10/10. the comedy? 10/10. the TEARS? 10/10. ... more>>

the four assassins are one of my favorite thing about this novel. your first impression of them probably would think of them as those ruthless killers but then they appear more and then you see that each of them have their own personal characteristic which make their interactions and banters were such a delight to read. also, you'll meet the best father out there. li jianhong, the father and the man that you are.)

(lang junxia's letter got me crying so bad i end up having a headache. kinda want to see more from his pov, actually... and yes the one on the cover is the MC (duan ling) and lang junxia and nope, lang junxia is not the ML. hehe.) <<less

★★★★ (another novel by mu su li!!!! and i love it so much!!!! the cp's dynamic is EVERYTHING!!!!! man, i really love reading their interactions... more>> t____t and sa'e yang AAAAAAAAA might be my most favorite gong from mu su li's novels. the side characters are also loveable (personally really like zilder feng's antics lmao) AND the mentally challenged system aka skyeye, that i absolutely adore with all of my heart, is s*upidly hilarious lmao. this is, like the author said, is pure nonsense that's why it's kinda hard for me to understand when i read the first 10 chapters but then it gets better!) <<less

★★★★★ (one of my best read. ever. enemies to lovers trope where the enemies part isn't lying and they do have a valid reason on wanting to kill each other. the s*xual tension is delicious and despite the author never explicitly described their bed scenes (at least on the main text, haven't read the extras yet) but it still make me hot lmao. the side characters are entertaining... they also have their own personality and story too! i personally love wenren lian :3)... more>>

(spoiler-ish? pls read it if you want to read novel where the couple is equally batsh*t crazy and psycho. or if you want to read novel where the ml killed the mc 18 times that it traumatizes mc psychologically that he spent every day practicing to become stronger to give ml the same pain. or if you want to read novel where there is enemies with benefits trope. they said they are mortal enemies but at the same time they love making out and even have s*x lol. the mc did succeed on getting revenge to ml where he killed him couple times and guess what they do after that? yes, making out. the mc even try to kill the ml after their first interc**rse LMAO and yes it was both their first time having s*x that it was really awkward and hilarious. their relationship development is really nice to read, for me, since it's not too sudden and abrupt.) <<less

★★★★ (a serious work from fake slackers' author and i like it. the cp is basically what if two abnormal people fall in love for the first time?  i like the MC and ML, i like the side characters, i like the plot, i like the cases that i cried on some of the parts, and i like the psychology aspect on this novel. kinda not satisfied with how the author end the mastermind's life, ngl. but overall, the novel is really enjoyable. MORE IMPORTANTLY, i love the cp's relationship development because, for me, it's natural and it's reasonable given how both of them are not mentally normal.)... more>>

(spoiler-ish? the part where chi qing feel like he has been feeling and acting strange around xie lin lately that he think he suffered new disease AND when xie lin confessed to him, he agreed on them to try dating but then after a couple of hours he kinda regret his decision and advised xie lin that they both should go see psychiatrist are so relatable lmao. i, too, would think like chi qing if i ever falling in love) <<less

★★★★ (historical setting with court politics has always been my favorite. this novel is good, the plot is thick, i love the MC and ML,... more>> i love their relationship development, and i adore the side characters. can't say anything else without spoiler, but if you want to read danmei that involves court officials and heavy politics with romance not the main focus, you should read this. i could've given this danmei solid five stars, if only, i don't get bored on some parts, especially after the CP got together. a pleasant read, nonetheless.) <<less

★★★★ (well! i came for smut but the plot end up entertain me more lmao despite it's being short, the main characters are well-done. BUT... more>> it's TOO short, i want to know what happen next since the assassin seems like staying at the palace...?) <<less

★★★★ (it's funny, cute, short, and hilarious. despite there's no explicit smut scene, you can still tell that the cp is h**ny for each other!... more>> good for them!) <<less

★★★★ (actually i haven't finished this. im in around ch 70 iirc. don't get me wrong, i don't have anything against the story. the story... more>> is great, entertaining, the characters are fun, the dragon puppy gong is cute, and the shou is stunning. probably would get back on it when the translator on the second life translations site continue translate it... i read the first 59 chapters of the novel on their site and the translations are so good! since i read on their site first, im more familiar with the terms they used on their translation such as enlighteneds, pollutant, etc etc and the second translator's terms are quite different that's why i became confused... so i prolly would wait on them if they ever will continue translate it hehehe) <<less

★★★★★ (definitely a good read! read it with low expectations and i end up loving it! and i wrote review for the first time cz... more>> of this novel lmao.) <<less

★ ★ ★ ★  (I’d definitely give this a solid five stars if the romance were a bit more developed. It feels kind of rushed... more>> since they fall in love at first sight, and that’s it—where’s the “getting to know each other” phase? The male lead learns about the main character’s background, but not directly from him; instead, he finds out through his position as a Jinyiwei captain (and well, the Jinyiwei know everything). Other than that, I have no complaints. I loved the political intrigue, the side characters, the emperors—just everything! Zhu Houzhao’s antics were hilarious, and poor Yang Zhan has to put up with them all ahahaha. Anyway, rather than 'Emperor', I think 'Imperial Teacher' or 'Imperial Tutor' would be more fitting for the title.) <<less

★★★★ (not a perfect work, but still an enjoyable read! the mc is a shameless brat, which makes him super endearing to me. as for the ml, i have zero complaints—he’s gentle, doting, and treats the mc so kindly. honestly, i love this kind of ML, and it’s surprising how often this type shows up in e-sports novels...? cough yu sui cough lu boyuan. i totally agree with the translator's breakdown: this novel is about 70% romance, 20% jiang shi vs. his fans, and 10% e-sports.)... more>>

(spoiler alert? there’s one thing i didn’t enjoy so much about the novel. the misunderstanding about their past—you know, the fact that they were each other’s online boyfriends—felt a bit dragged out. maybe it’s just me, because im not a big fan of the misunderstanding trope in general.) <<less

★★★ (eh basically all of your questions are answered by chapter 9 so.)

★★★★ (not a perfect work but not bad either. the plot is basically just like what the summary said. a novel where i absolutely adore... more>> both mc and ml. if you want to read a light cultivation novel where the romance is not a side plot go read this.) <<less

★★★ (truly a tragedy aha)

★★★★★ (man... where was i.. what's stopping me from reading this all this time... this novel got everything that i like??????? a serious political novel,... more>> court politics, the romance is THERE, the cp is a civil official x a military official and their conflict is chef's kiss. i really really really LOVE it when the cp's conflict stems from their different ideologies (or political side) cried on some parts that i need to get away from this novel for awhile to calm myself down lmaooo) <<less

★★★★ (a really light and heavy with comedy political novel. got baited by the title and immediately read it once i read the summary lmao.)
