But wait...

That's not our MC because her wrongly-misunderstood-as-evil cousin/sister who died in the transmigrator's revenge mess gets reborn. This reborn lady turns things around, marries another prince, cuts off the evil transmigrator's head (who took the place of her sister and hetrayed their family) and voila! A good ending.

But no, this is just the second paragraph of the first chapter so how can things end easily?

Drumroll please...

Here arrives our MC, in the body of person not fairly as interesting as the first two because honestly, my head was spinning so much I doubted if it was really the MC this time.

She is the first love of the reborn girl's golden thigh. Yes, the same golden thigh prince who she is supposed to, in her own storyline, marry and use to fight her fake transmigrator sister and her prince husband, then be victorious, behead them and become empress herself.

Stay with me now, don't get confused, this is only the first chapter.

Now, our actual MC is the first love of the reborn girl's target prince. She is, behold, not a transmigrator, nor a reborn person, but a world-hopper on a mission!

Phew, it feels like a migraine packed in a box.

After this, a no-name doctor character, pops up but I don't know his use, the MC's brother, with a severe sister complex, pops out. Then... Yeah the chatters are moving at this time.

Well I couldn't relate with the MC after so many switches at first. I couldn't understand her reactions, like her calling her brother cruel and cursing him in her heart when they first met. Sigh...

Honestly, I wish the first arc were simpler to ease us in.

As I read the first arc, I couldn't decide whether to jump to another arc or to another book.

Poor guy! It was so obvious that the ML did it, but our smart FL forgets staff health care and such and dies not investigate, the guy gets a demotion. Though his actions were a bit wrong, as he ran off with the car leaving her without transport at the party, she could still have called a cab. The worker got beaten because of her then a demotion, that is a lawsuit I would take up against her any day!

Yes she is scheming, and she is heartless and all that sh*t I know but why play innocent people. The physician. Why give him false hope? Why deceive him? Why say she is gonna marry him in front of everyone. Yes it was a part of her scheme but it left me with a bitter aftertaste. And when he comes to just ask her she insults him as you are s*upid, easy to deceive and all that stuff. Why? I may have missed some points like what the physician did to her in last life, I don't recall such scene but this scene got me frustrated.

Second. The brother. She freaking frames him. Yes he is kinda creepy being overprotective of her. And when he accidently kisses her and faints afterwards due to grave injuries, she freaking frames him and cries for help. Like what???And before you guys scream in*est and all, why did she ask if she should marry him? Isn't it misleading him???

The original story: OFL (realm's original FL) was wedded to the fifth unfavourable Prince, our OML. OML killed his bride, that's when OFL transmigrated in the bride's body. OFL conquered OML heart and helped him to became Emperor (the clique story). They killed some Prince and cannon fodder here and there on the road then... One of the cannon fodder (CF) with super luck and some bugs was... reborn. The CF began her counterattack against OFL and OML and also pushed CF2, another Prince's wanfei, into a lonely death. Our MC is CF2!!! Not CF!

OML was such a s*umbag (I don't understand why people says that he didn't do anything wrong so it was pretty cruel for MC's to give him such an ending) so I didn't pity him or anything. He didn't kill for survival. He killed for power and self-satisfication. The OFL was a good person. So I'm happy that MC saved her from such a s*umbag.

At the beginning when I read the Original story I didn't feel that OML was such... a person. I didn't like how after her ex-girlfriend sacrificed her life for him and he and OFL showed their affection in front of her tomb. OML didn't show remorse or sad for his ex. I know he didn't like his ex anymore but still he should feel gratitude for her after saving his life! *sigh*.

OFL? I don't like her. The heck was

"We are happy now. You can rest in peace." (ノಠ益ಠ) ノ彡┻━┻

what the sfgehdj hell?! Shouldn't you at least Thank (if not for her, OML would be dead) or say Sorry (for guilt) to her?

Even though it's like this, I felt they shouldn't deserve such a hellish future... Or so I though! Who would have thought that OML was such a guy?! Because in the original story there weren't this many hardship in their relationship and the OFL was a good girl... But! After MC come into this realm she tore OML mask. I know, MC made some choices and this choises have consequences. But this doesn't mean that she caused OML to change for the bad. What she did was to look at the face behind the mask. So the OML totally deserved his ending but still... it was so ruthless that I felt "such a poor guy...". Although I didn't like OFL but she is a good girl.

The ML. He appears in the first arc as the MC's brother in the world we are first introduced to, and like, you can argue that it's not really in*est since she's not really the same person as the body she's inhabiting, but it was still a bit weird and uncomfortable for me. That's not the part I had the biggest problem with, however (it's a bit scary to say that with the amount of CNs I've consumed at this point borderline in*est doesn't even faze me anymore...), my biggest problem is just with ML's entire personality, lmao.

He's intense and possessive and obsessive and I've read enough of these kind of novels that I thought I'd be desensitised to this kind of behaviour at this point but Su Rui was forceful to a degree that brought back my initial discomfort with these kind of characters. I think it's because with most possessive/yandere characters, usually the novels they're in are quite lighthearted themselves and with a comedic undertone so they can't really get away with doing anything too intense, and they always seem to know where to draw the line. This novel is different, though, since takes itself more seriously. A yandere character in a comedic setting is easier to swallow because the typical yandere qualities exhibited are used for comedic effect and for gags, but a yandere character in a more serious setting, coupled with a more realistic tone, just feels oddly chilling... in a sense. It's a bit like how I would never want to actually encounter a man like this in real life, whenever I'm reading and Su Rui enters a scene, I just want to take Su Wan by the shoulders and tell her to RUN.

Though I haven't read too much of Su Rui yet, what I've already seen has left me feeling unsettled. I'm not sure if he gets any better further down the road, but as of now I really can't stomach any more of him lol so I won't be continuing reading this for now.

(Also... the reason why my rating is kinda low is because of him, yes.)
