SayerSong's Topics (1708)

I see all these comments about how hateful and how much of a b*tch Lan Yan is, and how everyone wants to kill her. They are almost infinite. And yet, here I am getting carpal tunnel syndrome trying to like all of them. If I missed your comment on how disgusting, putrid, awful, etc., she is, I apologize.

Now, about this weapon stockpile I have.... First come, first serve. Let's kill us a fictional b*tch.

The great-grand-dads fighting over Rourou is hilarious! I do hope that YiYun and Jinyao explain everything to the pair.

Just saw the notice and am sad now. Guess this means that the 2 spin-offs were also discontinued. That sucks. I was really looking forward to the rest of Lilith and zombie boy's story......

Any idea when this may be updated?

Only took 40 chapters, but the plot finally arrived to the show, folks!

It was good. I like that he was not toxic and she was not weak or fragile. And when compared to other Harlequins, this is definitely one of the better ones. And can I just say that I LOVED that the FL was not put off in the slightest by the appearance of the ex-gf. LOL The fact that she actually felt sorry for the ex and looked like she had to hold her laughter of the situation in check, just made her that much more awesome as a character. That and the way she handled Tommy. Hehehehe.

But, why did the matchmaker have to phrase it as "I'm going to make you beautiful inside and out." It makes her sound like she thought the FL was not only ugly on the outside, but had a horrible personality. I mean, there are SO MANY better ways to phrase it. Like "We're going to bring out your true radiance," or something. "

But still, it is a very good read.

I love that they did NOT sleep together after the plane crash and that she was only trying to keep their body warmth up. I LOVE that the ML was kind, caring and understanding and not at all the typical Harlequin jerk lead. I LOVE that the baby WAS her ex-husbands and that she simply lied to him to help keep her son safe (and I 100% AGREE with that decision). I love that the ML didn't get mad at hearing that she lied to her ex about the son's paternity, claiming the child belonged to the ML instead. I love that at NO POINT did he utter the words "OF CONVIENCE" in regards to ANY proposal. I love that she became strong after leaving her ex, but was still showing realistic signs of fear. Most of all, I love that he waited until AFTER everything was resolved to confess and give a real proposal, so she didn't think it was just part of the ruse to catch David or because he felt sorry for her and Keir.

The ONLY thing I would change, is the line that stated she changed her last name and hid who she was to stay away from Rafe. It should have been because of David. It makes sense, and it is an HONEST, REAL reaction for most abuse survivors. And I don't care if he wasn't PHYSICALLY abusive. He emotionally and mentally abusive and that is JUST AS BAD. And it WOULD have turned physical at SOME point in time. There is nothing wrong with changing your name and hiding from an abuser if you or your children are in danger from said abuser. Also, the fact that she and Rafe hadn't slept together, it makes no sense that she would want to hide from him other than to hide from David, because she thought David still worked for Rafe.

Other than that, this checks ALL the boxes for a GREAT read and is definitely well worth the time to read it.

Um... Okay ... Let me see if I get this straight. I will disregard just how TOXIC the ML is with his perpetual jealously, refusal to trust her, his uncontrolled, rampant temperament and the way he jumps to conclusions and flies off the handle at the least little thing (save in regards to the kids. He does get points for not getting angry at Nuala when she was kicking, screaming and yelling "I HATE YOU, DADDY!!!").

But we are supposed to believe that his adopted mother, who wanted him to stop womanizing, SETTLE DOWN, get married and have kids, heard he was dating a woman EXCLUSIVELY and decided that this woman he was dating EXCLUSIVELY (and WITHOUT hearing ANY ILL ABOUT HER WHATSOEVER), decided on her OWN, that this woman was an OBSTACLE to his settling down, getting married and having kids INSTEAD of thinking that she might be the KEY to it? No. Sorry. I do NOT buy that. Even as a plot device that is not believable. Even with mental illness, it is not believable. If she had wanted him to settle down and have kids, instead of womanizing around town, she would NOT have broken him up with the ONE WOMAN that had managed to get him to be exclusive. Even by Harlequin's lame excuse meter, this is BAD.

NOW, had they said she wanted him to marry a rich lady, or if she had been led to believe the FL was toxic as well, I MIGHT be able to start buying that she would try interfering. But NOT to the point of framing the ML. Just to the point of not allowing the calls and letters.

It would have been MUCH better had it been the ex-wife that did it, because she was wanting to have a "fated" meeting with him and marry him for his money or some such. And much more believable. And since it isn't all the believable itself, that is saying a LOT. Nope.

Story may have had SOME potential, but what little it did, was thoroughly blown it on the "twist."

(⊙…⊙ ) BEST. SHUTDOWN. EVER.

That was SO AWESOMELY EPIC! I am SO PROUD of our boy!!!!! You go! You defend your man!!!!

FL: I have lost my last reason to hate him.

Gee, so his blackmailing you into dinner, threatening to raise your studio rent, forcing himself on you after you clearly stated no and that you didn't want him, forcing you into a marriage that you didn't want at the time, as well as forcing you to move to another country and give up your dance studio and then threatening to take your child away, and all without explaining WHY he dumped you (and told others to LIE to you and NOT let you through), in the first place, are NOT reasons to continue hating him? Gee... Coulda fooled me. Cause I would hate him even MORE after all that. Granted, had he actually EXPLAINED THINGS CLEARLY when he first reappeared, all the misunderstandings would have been fixed, and I could have understood her taking him back. But not after he pulled all that other BS.
