I was just gonna comment on how pretty the art is and I see comments saying ppl were hating on the art style like wtf??

Sadly its true… the chinese fandom (target audience) can be very picky. Overall many artists are suffering attack, that included the 2ha manhua artist which changed TWICE, and the qian jin jiu manhua which ended up being dropped because of the massive hate (in case you’re wondering why its not updating).
Check out the user @dokkaebisan (they made a post inviting people to leave messages encouraging the artist and they will send it to them, so leave a message if you can)
Also this post explains it with screenshots from the artist

Ppl blaming the child for acting apathetic when he was younger when his mother literally used to never show affection to him + strangled him on a daily basis. Then the one time she shows care for him, she kills herself while NEXT TO HIM. So yeah, no, I don't think it's fair to say he already had a "psychopathic" gene in him when he also clearly had a fucked childhood from the start.
That being said, it doesn't excuse how utterly sociopathic he is in now with the MC but it does make more sense now why he is the way he is.
