At first it was bearable, although the plot is somehow cliched in having greedy relatives and jealous classmates stufd... Then more dogblood drama with beloved relatives dying at a time, then betrayals ans more stuff to come... I couldn't endure reading anymore. It's too painful to read for me. Honestly the characters are relatable and realistic, which is a good point. It's just that it annoys me to death how almost all of the characters love to lie. It's like they are living in the world full of lies, then suffer the consequences of it afterwards. And they never f*cking learn. A lot of major charactera feel totally s*upid and blind, like the MC father who seemed rushing to die all the time while making hypocritical reasons like wtf, her friends who think that a villain can easily turnover into a white lotus, her mom who foolishly hid her meetups with MC and MC father which led to her own husband's suspicion of possible derailment, that couple not telling mother-in-law which caused mother-in-law's suspicion and unhappiness with MC mother skyrocket....

Just all things can be avoided if you try to talk things out clearly and try to be honest. But no, the author seems to want to protray the hypocrisy, dishonesty, and gullibility of human nature in this novel.
