The novel showed xiu xingyue's relationship with that director even more demeaning. At the dinner meeting they had, the director had xiu xingyue drink a lot, objectifying her like a paid escort that can be played with and lend to the other men there. Not verbatim but in essence, what the director described:
"Comparing xiu xingyue with wen li, of course the men's treatment is different. Wen li is song Yan's wife so they must treat her with respect and can't be bullied/teased (as in have her serve the drinks, be arm candy, take shots until drunk). Whereas xiu xingyue can even be loaned out, accompany the other men, gave them a taste. He already invested a lot of resources on her, so she should know her place and bear with it, even serving old men not as handsome as what she wants like song yan, until she can make profit roi and become a bigger star."
This chapter skipped the rough night they had where the director scolded (and kinda physically abused) her for being shameless approaching song yan. He's mad because she was obvious about it and he felt embarrassed that his sugar baby didn't show him respect in front of his friends by pursuing song yan. rare occasion that I'm glad they skipped things from the novel
Tbh that circle of acquaintance with that director was infuriating. even wen li was at first treated better only because she's married to song yan.
(I read the novel only once some time ago so might not be 100% accurate but this is what I remember)
Where can I read the novel??
where can i read the novel ? also from what chapter should i start reading it ?
You can look it up on novel updates, which will give you a direct link to the translated novel's site.
I can't wait to see this story completed
But as I read the spoiler n summary, we have a lot more flashback about her previous lives to go through? I just want the babies to come sooner ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ

Will the pacing and tone continues to be this slow? I've gotten bored from 2 chapters but tried hanging on for 30 chapters in case it gets better. Well the story did progress and I get some future plot foreshadowing which made me curious but the storytelling is so monotonous, made it feels lackluster. Is this adapted from a novel? Feels like the storyboard can be improved and less drawn-out.
Too much narration explaining panel, telling reader instead of showing it. Example:
"we drank tea while waiting" - tea picture
"We continued the pleasant talk again while waiting" - picture of everybody smiling and laughing
"I'm happy our family can be together like this" multiple times almost every few chapters. The first few times said by different characters are enough to show their feelings. I get it.
In novel yes use words to describe those but I feel like just drawings should be able to show the atmosphere, feelings, story.
I guess that's the difference between shounen manhwa with rating above 9.3 and this one with rating 9.0. it's a similar issue I have with "volcanic age" manhwa, compared to "return of mount hua sect", "the S-classes that I raised", "story of a low ranked soldier becoming a monarch" etc. they're better adapter into manhwa.
Example of outstanding shoujo manhwa adapted from novel, "my mom entered a contract marriage", "broken ring". The arts are chef kiss
Who the ml and mc in original novel?
Noella was written as heroine at first then author changed her mind and made her dumb villain, and promoted Chloe to be the heroine?
Was it Killian or Aaron the 2nd prince who was ml
pretty sure it was aaron
Red flag: red flagging
He hot tho
Delulu: I can change him
Our baby: lemme fly my ass across the Atlantic ocean, stalk him, then be his manager to snoop for blackmail material. Sounds like a good plan to be this close to a psycho

I need fluffy and funny side stories during the peace ┗( T﹏T )┛
The pacing of this manhwa is my cup of tea the fights action flow makes sense and serve a purpose for the plot progression. Plot moves fast comparatively, fighting also doesn't take forever to stretch the series. Authors around the world should understand a finished great story is better than a long drawn-out ongoing one
I wrote a mdzs regression fanfic on AO3 myself because I got frustrated by unfinished stories there, some are ongoing but slow update, some were great but on hiatus or abandoned... My medium length story is at least complete

It ain't that deep
Just from the title, we should know it's more of a gag than a serious story.
I swear people who hate on this is the same people who don't laugh at crayon shin chan or SpongeBob
Chungmyung most probably the most cracked mc I've read. Cracked as in strong, and cracked as in he's unhinged like he's on crack
is this any good?
Some comment said it's funny but I'm at chapter 11 and already finding it boring. Meek mc, short term characters, repetitive sa attitude from the mob towards the female characters. Also I'm shallow so I need at least ok-looking mc, skeleton gonna get some meat or nah?
He will stay a skeleton, he has no human form (for now). The main interesting thing is when we get close to understanding why he is living a repetitive life. There’s a character that he encounters much later that is funny (and handsome in human form). But things happen. If it’s not your cup of tea you should just let it go tbh
Thanks for the info
I swear they're called differently before. It was fiend and fiend association? And gourmet now is one of the 7 sins, take that Gordon Ramsay
