Yes, I have read the novel (haven't completely read it yet) but I am always amazed by the author's way of storytelling. The manhwa adds more to it by creatively portraying the author's words. I mean have you seen the change of brushes to suit the feeling of the moment? Absolutely creative — you know that the artists has squeezed what they can afford to squeeze out of their creativity to show us this manhwa.
If there is a novel for this, it might be a good one. Assuming that there is, the donghua wouldn't fully tell every detail about it so it might be the reason why it feels rushed. The art is in typical chinese harem style so yeah, fanservice is all over the place.
