"burning hot but cold, frosty but warm" perfectly encapsulates their chharacters, and that dynamic is the main (and most compelling) feature of this story. I truly loved it. Yes, its a bit fucked up but its bc the ppl in it are a bit fucked up, due to fucked up circumstances, and this gives them the space to heal and grow together. This did a phenomenal job at characterization, and using LITERARY DEVICES (like wtfff) to convey the story?? and the contrast between the panels and dialogue totally deserves analysis!!! the beginning is definitely a little rough but you can totally see how the author and characters completely evolve!! Plus they do so around an interesting storyline with an incredibly satisfying end, which is a great plus to this manhua. It was such a delight to see the mc and ml fall in love, and try and analyze all the critical moments, I love how this emphasizes the show not tell mantra that so common in storytelling. I just think this is an amazing, if tragic (but happy ending) work
