I loved this story. I like the FL dare to live her life to the fullest and ML was so charming.

The Ban family was the fun and happy family, they were so loving and so protective to each other.

If you like fun, independent and smart FL, this is a must read novel.

... more>> The MC were not fall in love instantly but they were fascinated to each other beauty and characters then get along each other.

They were definitely power couple, they work together and help each other in difficult time.

I MTL this novel, honestly it was hard to read but I was persistent and interpret the meaning as best as I could because I believe this is a great story.

UPDATE (17/03/2022) :

I have reread this novel after more than 2 years and I have to update my review because in my interpretation of this novel, I think the author want to express was the importance of family teaching and support. The MC's family which was The Ban, the parent never dictate their children's life, the parent and grandparent give the children the freedom to be whatever they want as long as never cross the bottom line. The family support each other with love and action.

The royal family, the emperor want to avoid power struggle between his princes, he give all his attention to the eldest and neglect the others, the 2nd prince felt abandoned and act like rebellious teenager and he thought that everyone owed him.

The Shi family, they want to shape their children as perfect as possible for the glory of their clan. The parents and people around their children brainwashed their younger generation about their roles and responsibility to shoulder the clan's glory since very young. In fact, many parents do this to their own children in this era, it's like giving drugs to the children to "cure" their "misbehaviour" but long term "drug" become poison and overdose drug could only bring harm to them.

I think moral of this novel is family's education hold the main role in the growth of the future generations.

The 2nd time reread this novel, I still recommend this story. <<less

Enjoyed the novel quite a lot, love the FL's personality and her family.. Tried to read the mtl since I caught up with the translations, but unfortunately it wasn't as great at the translations since I could barely understand anything, even the funny parts feels bland. Wish the translator could translate faster, or maybe the would be a translator who could translate faster, not that I'm not thankful.

I think I forgot to add review for this. But all other reviewers already stated what I'm gonna said. The female lead and her family are the main point of this novel. They so fun and hilarious together. I love that instead of hiding the dreams FL had, she just told her family. It shows how much tight their bond is as a family and the trust they have not like other family.

edit : THEY MAKE A DRAMA BUT TO BE WARNED, they seems to changed Xie Wanyu into a... more>> chef and as a romantic interest to Ban Heng who is the fl's younger brother.

sigh, to changed one of the villain into a good person. Lmao whos gonna married second prince now ???? <<less

So good! I highly recommend this novel if you are looking for a heartwarming and funny romance. Fluffy and sweet, but balanced with a decent plot that holds your interest.

Also the romance is believable, no instantly-obsessed-at-first-sight kind of love, so it's nice to see the couple's feelings grow.

I love the MC's personality, so gallant! She might seem s*upid at first, but she's really not, she's just more like a military style - speaks straight, treats sincere people sincerely and doesn't put up with fake people, not afraid to live her... more>> life staying true to herself.

Not a bad novel to read with MTL if you want to finish it. <<less

MTL read up to chapter 110.

FL character different from author's usual temperament.

ML still hiding his real face, looking forward to uncover his true abilities.

FL's dream still unexplained, who is the emperor?

One of the best novel I ever read, the romance are slow burn, its not exactly love at first sight, the ML might be the first to fall, but its only 'like' kind of love, and then slowly it turns love, and then soulmate.

FL is the best FL I ever meet, she strong, a family first kinda person, ruthless towards her enemy, yet kind? She have bottom line against woman, you might think she's arrogant dumb, but no, she know what she's doing, and its not all luck she can... more>> grow up safely around politics, same as her ban family, they might look dandy, but actually they know what to do and say, and what not.

The ML is not at all OP, he's just a normal person with handsome face, very human character, have lots of expression, he got jealous a lot, he hide it a lot and would rather wrong himself rather than restrict FL freedom and decisions making. But all the time FL wont disappoint him, and would priority him first, making him touched and fall in love deeper.

The plot mostly about politics and war, and then romance, 50 politics, 30 romance, 20 others. The story sometimes move slowly and sometimes fast paced, it ends just nicely. I laugh and I cry while reading.

There's no 3rd party, they cant even lol

I really love this, thanking the translator for introducing <<less

I like the MC, she is clear with love and hatred towards everyone.

The ML is also the loyal and pampering type.

What I like the most of the MCs family. It is quite rare to have a very doting family among CNovels.

When MC had a glimpse of her past life as well as when ML woke up in a world without her... So love this part eheheu

Failing upwards, the light novel.

Fun story about a group of noble families that has the right combination of looks, ignorance, intelligence, dumbness, and most importantly insane amount of wealth and luck to fail upwards. To be honest very frustrating if you put your your shoes to their 'enemies', but its written in a mostly comedic zone so pretty enjoyable read.

I love the MC, her family and the ML. It's a good story with good characters and plots. I laughed at how pure and innocents the MC and her family is. Truly enjoyed the author's writing style.

I hope the current translator don't drop this novel again, as I think it had been 3x the translator changed. So translator: we appreciate your work! Keep it up!!

If you watched the drama, this novel is waaaaaaaay better. I think the drama butchered the whole story and characters. In the drama the family was... more>> matching her with potential husbands.

Spoiler

In the novel, they would rather her be happy and unmarried for life rather than be partnered with an unsuitable guy.

I really love this author works. I amazed by the development of stories and characthers.

The drama adaptation is so far so good. Although there are some changes, the plot is still the same.

I really love the Ban Family, they are part of Royal Family but they are so hilarious. Lol.

If you search for a handsome black bellied Male Lead, and not OP Female Lead, a well done plot and character development, you can give this a try!!

Everything that needed saying has been said already. But hands down, I loved the Ban family and the ML was awesome in this. I actually loved ML more than MC.I like how they didnt fall in love at first sight or calculate each other for advantage and whatnot. Breath of fresh air!

The FL is narcissistic and lazy and a bit vain but has a good heart. Even though people thinks she is vase, she is quite smart. I wasn’t expecting to like the FL but I did. Her obvious flaws appeared cute to me. Loved the story and the chemistry between ML and FL. Especially loved the FL’s family interactions. Story is a lot focused on court intrigues but it’s not dry. The romance is slow but well done.

One of my favorite rereads. All due to the refreshing FL.

FL is pragmatic and not so much of a romantic - she did not fall easily for the suave, handsome and number one gentleman ML. Her golden finger is her past life dream and she decided to change her life by protecting her family, enjoy life, enjoy her youth and beauty. She’s very vain and admitted so. She is not pretentious and told ML that she’s not interested with certain lines of conversation. When ML decided upon her, she was... more>> happy and told him he has very good eyesight.

ML is very eloquent but always get tongue tied with MC remarks. He is not overly powerful and even let MC protect him as MC has strong martial arts and good with leading her army.
Both leads hide their true intentions not wanting each other to be involved. MC didn’t want ML to be implicated if her family fell. ML also didn’t want MC to know his plans in case it didn’t pan out.

MC will put ML as part of her family, but it can be seen that ML love MC more. Both did not verbally disclose their affections but we can see from the POV.

The drama did not do this novel justice... casting is alright but it did not follow the later part of the novel, to which the ML desire to establish himself as the future emperor and how MC dealt with her cousins, the ex royal members. That was also pushed by ML so he can see how much MC cares for him. <<less

Of all the female lead characters written by this novelist, Ban Hua can be said to be made a little more complex.

Her relationship with her ex-fiancé is quite complicated. Actually, I'm still annoyed with her ex-fiancé, which ended up not being so bad (his life quite good).

If possible, I want to have a character like Ban Hua, focus on myself and my family. Don't care what people say.

She is beautiful, their family is rich. She-don't-need-a-man. LOL.

But her relationship with the male lead is also good. A healthy relationship.
