Even at chapter 232, we've seen one OG character completely destroyed, one OG character currently bashed online for being ungrateful to Shen Yichong (read the background), and one character currently running around like a headless chicken because her scheme was ruined by the MC.

FL was a snake spirit (demon) who used to live in a zoo in her past life. After she was struck down by lightning, she reincarnated into a novel. She became YaoYao, an nth-line actress who’s also the wife of the biggest entertainment company's boss.

Ori YY isn't in love with the boss, and only got married bcs they got a little bun together. Ori YY is instead in love with a big name actor and basically neglected her son.

The story is mostly FL using her snake/animalistic mentalities to act out scenes as an actress. (Imagining her past life where the zookeeper prefers soft, fluffy animals over snakes to act out “wanting to be loved, yet unable to change one’s own nature”, imagining getting her chicken stolen by the snake next door to act out “vengeful beloved concubine who was killed by another concubine”).

Also, a lot of FL flirting with her suspicious husband, and spoiling her little bun. Fluff.

The FL is definitely really cute, I honestly feels that the way the author explained what she thinks of while acting is interesting.

She's also smart at *coughcough* flattering the ML. I think this is one of the few novel with a flirty FL from the start.

The ML is your usual taciturn, but hyper-competent CEO. But, I think he's a pretty good father.

The novel is fun and full of fluff, and there's not much over-drawn drama.

so, I actually really don’t like how this novel treated mother and father. I’m someone who believe that a father’s love is no lesser than a mother’s love. This novel was fluffy almost to the point of immorality. That was a negative sentiment.

ML at the start of the novel, was a busy boss, but care for his 5 y/o son. Before FL gets possessed and ML and FL fell in love, his son seems to be his sole reverse scale. He took care of his son's need despite being busy and he was shown to care for his son through the course of the story,

FL, before getting possessed by the snake spirit, was a neglectful mother. She wanted to divorce her husband and abandon her son to chase after a popular celebrity. At the beginning of the novel, the status quo was that her son could get close and hold his mother as long as his mother is asleep bcs his mother wouldn't allow it if she was awake. It was even hinted that her son was traumatised that even after FL treated him nicely, he was afraid to point out that he doubted his mother's acting talent bcs he was afraid his mother would ignore him again.

That was why as the novel goes on and it kinds of really annoys me when the story goes and made the son prefer his mother over his father. Like— “My father is a useless ATM and his only use is to give stuff to my beloved mother” kind of preference.

Like, from the beginning the ML is the one who cares for the son and when the FL suddenly changes personality, he's the one to care if it's just FL’s trick and worries that she'll harm his son. Before FL gets possessed, he was basically a single parent. The fact that ML is basically being treated as a second-class parent by his own son irritates me to the bone.

I don't mind the FL being sue-ish, I don't mind that the antagonists are s*upid, I don’t mind the plot being predictable. But I really really mind how the author treated the ML as a father.

Like, even if the son prefers mom over dad, at least give the slightest nudge towards it being “I like mom bcs she's the nicest and lets me eat sweets, but I know I can depend on my dad” instead of it being an absolute preference.

The MC's past life was originally a snake spirit.

I can't get over the part where Shen Rui (the son) told his parents that he felt his little sister will grow into a black bellied woman because she inherits Shen Yichong's IQ and YYY beauty and that it would be awful, lol
