Their grandpa especially, why did he have to treat his stepson (original male lead) better than his real son? It would have been fair is his wife also did the same, but she also treated the original male lead (her biological son better). When the twins' father started to destroy the og!ml's company, they tried to stop him. Why didn't they do that in the original story tho when it was the other way around and even ended with the twins' father getting killed? They're absolute tr*sh for me.

I happened to read some reviews talking about predatory behaviour and grooming etc before I and started reading and for a long time I thought the DAD was the ML!!! Lol. Idk, while I found MLs character entirely boring/unappealing, the way I saw it there was nothing of the sort? Nothing is initiated or conveyed till everyone is legal. The ML actually liked her before he knew who she was and maintained a big-bro type relationship for years. I didn't see any coercion, dependence, leading on or guilt-tripping. I accept that the CPs relationship isn't really fleshed out (Honestly they didn't even have to include a romantic angle). It was all a 'let's just end it' vibe but other than that..

The romance was shoehorned in at the end and felt forced. I wouldn't normally mind since that was not really what I am reading for but having ended up with Lin Shaochi it ruined the story for me. The rest of the chapters felt uncomfortable since in his eyes she was 14 (although we knew she has an older mindset) and he was an adult when he fell in love. She was way underage and this based in the modern day so no-one can excuse the behaviour as a different era mindset. Even he admits to himself his thoughts are wrong to the point of illness and tries to seek help. The rest of the relationship was him trying not to make it obvious to FL while at the same time being as close as possible. This is not right having understood his feelings were wrong, his attempt of treatment which seems to have just been some sort of CBT was not working he should just have made a clean break only replying to her in a pure business manner which would have been only a few times since almost nobody at the company later knows who she is due to her lack of input. Her brother lets him off because he bought gifts for him as well includes him during the years, the whole mindset just feels like grooming both children. Grooming per google is when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate them which feels pretty accurate here from Shaochi's side of the relationship. I would have preferred Xie Minxuan or just add a line saying she met someone later, like the literal one line her brothers relationship got.

This is a story based around the family you do not need to force romance especially one between an adult who deeply feel in love with a minor.

FL knew the future and everything and seems like a typical transmigration/reincarnation novel at first.

But, over here, she doesn't try to dominate the world or dabble in every industry or just goes into the entertainment industry. That's what I liked most in this novel.

Over here, the FL is smart enough to just pack up and goes to find her rich daddy along with her twin bro. She doesn't think overly of herself and admits that she needs someone to rely on.

Overall, it's just the sweet and day-to-day interactions of a father and his newfound twin kids. Some face slapping to villains and kinda getting emo over their struggles.

ML is the most handsome and capable man which so caring and accompany FL everytime. Because of the large sparity of age, he didnt want to be a lolicon and tried so hard to forget his feeling at first. But can not even though has visit psychiatrist for 5 years.

the romance part is few. The story is her family slice of life overall.

At first, I felt sorry for Mr. Lin because he had no idea she was fourteen. The MC didn’t give any hints about her age either. So I didn’t blame him for nurturing feelings. And I felt relieved when he went to get therapy because he realized he had mistakenly fell in love with a minor. But, when she was older, he still had feelings for her. It just seemed like he was waiting for her to grow up. It grossed me out so much. And I think he even confessed that he had liked for the past four years, from 14 to 18 years old. It’s just pe*ophile vibes all over the place.
