That really annoyed me too. Honestly I just chalked it up to meh translation & interpreted as she mentally was 10 but just recalled the memories of her past life, like a lot of other stories out there.
I would love to think that it was just a mistranslation but there are multiple moments where she makes it obvious that she is a grown woman in a body of a child. For example, when she was 10 and her mother in law asked her to make a schedule for workers. She did that but then said “well I would need help from you guys” and then inner thought said “she still needs to pretend that she is a 10 year old child”. Or when ML would say “why do you act like I’m a child even though you are just one year older than me”.
There are no way out of pedophilia allegations.
Never trust ratings on this website. How the fuck is this 9.3 stars???
Grown ass woman gets reincarnated into a body of a 10 year old girl and meets ML, who is also a child. Already weird dynamic, but there could be ways around it to not make it weird! Separate them! Make them grow up separately! At the very least, make it so MC’s memories are so fragmented so that she stays as an actual child!!
But no. Author really decides to dig their own grave and make MC fall for ML when they are 13 years old!!!! What the fuck!!!! Reminding you, that’s a grown ass woman in a body of 13 year old girl falling for 13 year old boy!!!
AND THEN when they are 15, MC can’t stop describing how handsome he is, his lips and other things about him that she loves. Girl, kys. Disappear. Walk off a cliff.
I’m also uncomfortable with the way author is really trying to highlight the fact that ML is so mature and so smart beyond his age, obviously trying to make the dynamic less weird and ‘put them on equal footing’. Just no. No. Fucking starting a successful business at 10 years old? Running household and finances at 10 years old?
I have nothing nice to say to the author or people defending this type of trope.
MC reincarnated into a body of a villainess and became something even worse.
