although this kind of plot is overused, the execution is just exquisite - so much so that it makes it even better than others with similar storylines.
the art is truly majestic and i love how the characters can look so different when the need or the situation arises. fl and ml can look so childlike whenever they interact and it's because of their pure feelings for each other, and ml can look so damn frosty whenever he's mad mad. when fl is sad, she looks so different from when she smiles genuinely too. it's so nice to see it bc tbh a lot of the manhwas i've seen seem like the faces are just being copy pasted, with just their eyebrows and mouths changing directions. not that i hate it, but the artists are so damn good with how they portray the characters' feelings here.
i have so much more to say but imma cut it short
damn they really be playing tug of war with their heads like they just looove going back n forth with their bs, especially the fucking emperor.
fuck u mean u want FL to make ML fall in love w her but then go do a 180 and ask her to be your empress instead like be for fucking real?? wouldn't that just make ML go to the OG FL?? this is stressful as hell but it's fucking funny seeing these shit heads go around and do all kinds of crazy shit
WHY DID I HAVE TO CATCH UP TO THE LATEST CHAPTER (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ I'M SO CLOSE TO RIPPING MY HAIR OUT BC I SERIOUSLY NEED MORE
bro pls dont tell me that's all. wtf is wrong with all these twisted minds lmao she did NOT have to leave him towards the end. that was so fucking unnecessary and so baffling to even read. she kept on making him chase her so much and she wanted to place a leash on him so badly like a masochist would.
this was surely interesting at first and i was intrigued by their toxicity, especially FL's, but then their monologues gradually grew smaller to being almost none at all so it was hard to comprehend the story at its entirety.
i even thought FL was playing mind games with ML to even the game but she was sincere with gaining his trust when he wouldn't give her authority in the mansion. i thought she'd be much more witty but ig author wanted her to be lazy and dumb until the end. ts kinda underwhelming :/
regret even reaching ch 47 while barely tolerating all the bullshit lmao i wanted to at least finish until ch 60 but i just can't anymoreヽ(`Д´)ﾉ everything and everyone's just so fucking dumb especially the author of this goddamn manhwa
i kept tearing up all throughout this manhwa. art is so fucking beautiful and it's the best i've ever seen. im also happy with their all of their relationships（/TДT)/
cobbler seems to be mentioned a lot and i wonder what's his lore
art isn't as detailed and amazing since s2 started but ig it's ok since it must be hard keeping up w all that. kinda miss it but at least the story's finally picking up pace (づ￣ ³￣)づ
damn i can't even imagine myself being fucked on rotation without sleep. you'd have to be on another level of fucking rut on top of physical and mental strength to handle all that ╥﹏╥

all jokes aside, fuck them men lmao they're literally treating her like some kind of cum dump with how they're ok with having sex w her right after the other. glad it's still consensual considering it was girlie's wish but damnnn
i meannnn this would've been done & dusted if he hired her as the official seamstress of the imperial palace but that wouldn't be a good romance story now, would it?
finally, a good shoujo manhwa that doesn't revolve around business nor money for the sake of revenge and freedom
i love the plot and the art so much!!! i like how she goes through multiple obstacles first before actually being with the family that'll protect her.
can't believe i held myself back from reading this bc i wasn't used to the art style. i'm so happy i read this last night (i was clearing out my 'to-read' list, not that anyone cares) and it's the first thing i'm proud of myself for doing this month.
chu tian is her father and i believe this based on the eyebrows (jk) but srsly he's so daddy-coded now that their relationship has progressed and im so happy!! ik ts has more heart breaking moments to come so i'll brace myself for that while marinating this
also i love swallowtail hehe ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
HOW COME IT'S ALREADY FINISHED（/TДT)/ I DONT WANT TO ACCEPT IT!!!! WHY WAS IT RUSHED ╥﹏╥ I WANTED TO SEE MORE OF THE WAR AND THEIR ROMANCE TO BLOOM!!! I WANTED TO KNOW MORE
i listed this in 2022 and only reading it now at 2025. can't believe i almost missed out on this
i'm still sad over the fact that the og roselyn died ╥﹏╥ i wish there wouldve been a way for the shadow/current roselyn and the og one to co-exist within a single body. i hate how the 2nd prince/ML only fell in love with current bc of her naivety, recklessness, and strength. there are also other factors at play ofc but i'm just so sad about it rn
i'm also still mourning over dame hayle, the green-haired knight who cooked delicious meals and also got poisoned by the fragment in the forest in the journey back from balta arc （/TДT)/ she was forgotten too easily and im sad even if she was only an extra
PLS ALLOW ME TO YAP
FIRST of all, i didn't like how she nonchalantly accepted that she suddenly woke up in another world - in the middle of a meeting too. i get that you're all about customer service and all that shit (i'll also be working there in the future lmao) but damn she really acted like it was all a matter of fact.
SECONDLY, i understand the empress dowager. if i was in her shoes, i'd be like her as well. imagine your lady-in-waiting dethroning you and her having a child with your husband (〜￣△￣)〜 reasonable crash out for sure
THIRDLY, i was conflicted with ethan so much bc he betrayed and tried to kill fl multiple times but he smiles so fucking sweetly, even i was getting so damn swayed
LASTLY, like other topics and comments below me, it was so weird how FL didn't even flinch or react to ethan kissing her without consent. you're literally in a relationship with the emperor now like damnnn her roster really do be wildin out ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
this KINDA has potential but the transitions between scenes & situations are starting to get kinda weird. why does it feel like author just randomly put together infamous cliché shit and called it a day? (⊙…⊙ )
why the fuck did a date night in the market happen with tristan, the brown-haired womanizer?? that was so unnecessary lmao. the whole choosing the knight w/o the master of the house, the FL trying to pick up swordsmanship and then leaves it as soon as she tries it, the meeting in the forest and then being chased by assassins and then falling from a cliff or dropping to the falls and then ending up spending a night in the cave and then the whole short-term memory loss arc. like... tf
i liked the premise of the story, it was giving "Father, I Don't Want This Marriage" (i still haven't finished that btw) and i was willing to read it for the hell of it but... wtf is happening (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
MLs are just edgelord wannabes (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
and how could some even want oswald as an ML like damn it makes me sick bc he's fucking disgusting. FL needs someone who can shed some love & light to her life, not someone who'll stress her tf out. saw some spoilers and now that ik who's the ML, i'm dropping ts now. i dont give a single fuck how sad ML's backstory might be or how FL's unfair treatment bc of the streamer system and her irl team made it, this fucking sucks ass (=・ω・=)
i like it so much!!! i like her, she's such a baddie and the cunty bobbbb omg it suits her sm!!!
also it's funny how people are contemplating on whether the kid is ML's like it's obvs that leo is his nephew and will probably be a contender to the throne once the truth comes out since the orange-haired crown(?) prince is full of shit.
some people are also saying that they wanna see an ml who actually has a son/daughter but im pretty sure there are other manhwas like that although, they'd just have to search long & hard to find one. not that they're wrong but what can i say? it's all up to the author's preferences or the ones complaining can make the story themselves.
