To be honest, I started reading for the face-slaps, though I've read so many face-slap novels it was kind of unsatisfying and predictable. Too many scheming lotus-faces one after another. I found the beginning generic (and the plot boring), and I despised all the characters; literally everyone except MC has something wrong with them. Especially ML?! I was hoping he wasn't ML for the first hundred chapters because he's EQ is negative. He doesn't give a damn about anything to the point he's aloof and taken advantaged of, but he どえsん't EVEN CARE he's being taken advantaged of. He brainlessly goes with the flow even though he's supposed to be a cold and calculating guy. At the beginning you will definitely hate him. It wasn't until like chapter 230 something that I started liking him. In the first place, I don't really like divorced people getting back together esp. if it was a loveless and mutual decision so I definitely wasn't rooting for him. As for all the characters they are so 2D. Everyone is dumb - good or bad (I didn't even like Lin Lin, I got a 3 yo baby bro and Lin Lin is nothing like him. He's expected to be wise beyond his years, so unrealistic). I feel like author felt the need to write them in such a way that they were nothing so that MC could outshine everyone, even though her number-one-hacker-FL-halo is already way too OP. But she's well developed and rounded with a mysterious past and her attitude towards herself and everyone is strong, fair, and ruthless so I like her. She's a dignified queen -

It's the first for me to read an MC leave out of her own volition because she cared about her own well-being. She's upright and values herself - doesn't want pity from ML, or ML's family, or her own family and friends. I mean if someone offered me a one hundred-million-dollar cheque that actually legally belonged to me, I would have just taken it lmao. I liked how MC became a new person/reverted to her old self, not because of reincarnation/transmigration - a plot too easy and common, but rather because she regained her pre-amnesia self. She's also intelligent - not just the show-off-y way where she schemes against people, but her passive yet manipulative speech when talking to people reminded me of some irl criminal interrogations.

Refreshing.

I do think the first hundred chapters or so is worth skimming over unless you live for the endless face-slapping. But the arc where MC meets Xia Meng... that's some Illuminati shenanigans there. Made me think of the Harry Potter 3rd movie where Harry saves his past self from the dementors. I totally didn't expect that sci-fi twist and the plot kept on getting more and more complicated and interesting from what originally a novel I thought was going to be about how FL face-slaps her way to glory and falls in love with ML. The change was quite nice, and definitely unique. Also she starts genuinely reciprocating his feelings ish around chapter 700 lol...

It's an interesting mix of modern-day-romance-sci-fi-drama-mystery with countless plot twists and conspiracies.

I'd personally rate it 3 stars, as it's not on par with my favourite novels, but it's unique and worth a shot.

I agree with simonsaysLOL, after the author bringing about the apocalyptic thing, I dropped the story, sorry it's just not my thing, I don't like it, the story is what is what I want to say.
