in other parts of the story, when there is a change in setting/location, there are 2 blank line spaces to indicate the change. in this case ( and several others), there is no similar indication and one would assume that the next paragraph is a continuation of the narrative in the previous paragraph. but reading further on, one will realize that the paragraph is about a totally different narrative. in this case, we have one paragraph talking about Yi Shuyan and the next about Lao San and her daughter, 2 new characters without any introduction on how they fit in the story, in an entirely different location. I guess that's where my confusion lies. by the way, Lin Quingquing behaving and knowing her place in this chapter is a nice touch. And Lin Yaoha! Perhaps this mother daughter duo may still have some sort of redemption in the story. I'm even looking forward to when Yaoha can stand up straight, look at the Lin family in their eyes and make them realize how badly they have treated her (Yaoha).

What happened here? I am confused. I was reading: Yi Shuyan could manage teaching on her own. The two of them usually did this. This is followed by: “Here sir,” she said as she gave the security personnel her ID and visiting card. They checked her things … She didn’t want to be here. So I start thinking that the school has a very tight security. And why does Yi Shuyan not want to be there? Just 6 sentences before this, it says Yi Suyan could manage teaching on her own. I assume she likes teaching. And then we have the next sentence: Jao Ying didn’t think she’ll ever get used to coming to this place. So, okay, it is Jao Ying who gave the security personnel her ID and visiting card, not Yi Shuyan. Why do we have these 4 sentences about Jao Tong having a day off and Yi Shuyan being okay with it in this part of chapter 39? So who is Jao Ying? And we have Lao San, her mother. Lao San has been in the mental institution for a couple of years (a couple of years = 2 years). She has seen Jao Ying grow up from a kid to an adult but she doesn’t remember who Jao Ying is.

sorry about the very long paragraph. this was originally 4-5 paragraphs when i started writing but everything got lumped into one very long paragraph during uploading. will try to fix that next time

i wanted my comment to make sense =) i had to re-read the whole volume in one go to make sure i got everything right. i really like the story and the way it is written (a breath of fresh air) and hoping for more frequent updates

This story could very easily be like the usual online “rebirth” novels that follow the same plot – female lead had a miserable life caused by an envious/scheming relative or a fake best friend who either wants her money/inheritance or her man, dies, gets reborn, changes how she lives her life and gets her revenge on the people who caused her death. What makes this story stand out from among the ones I’ve read is the way this story is written. Reading this story evokes the warm feeling of listening to a storyteller with a soft and gentle voice, almost wistful, narrating a memory, recalling the scenes, thoughts and emotions of the characters, almost nostalgic. The story opens with Yue Ling’s rebirth, and I wonder about the person that she is in her past life. Was she a bad person? There are hints – she thinks that “her life had nothing much to be proud of”, her miserable end was because “karma hit hard”, and that she is “a sinner”. One thing sure was that she had a miserable past life – “they all won and she died”. But she had good friends – the Kai siblings – and loyal family from her mother’s side. Her Lin family is a different story all together. They must be the “they” in “they all won and she died”. Yaoha and Quingquing are mean but Meilin is evil. Being manipulated by her “uncle” doesn’t shift the blame, she is evil even before she met her “uncle”. Poverty does not make one evil either. Although the situation of Yaoha and Quingquing in the Lin family does not excuse their meanness, it explains how they became what they are. It is easy to empathize with them, it is not easy to look in from the outside when you are actually inside. So I wonder why Old lady Lin treats them the way she does. Old lady Lin can only be part of the reason the mother-daughter pair ended as how they are. Lin Jingxuan is puzzling; it is hard to understand his silence about Meilin and the breakup of his family. It is hard to understand why a husband cannot talk to his wife about important issues that impact on their marriage. It feels weird, but somehow I am comforted to know how Yaoha and Quingquing became mean, like an issue, for me, has been resolved.

to manage expectations, it would be good if readers know when new chapters will be added. it is starting to get frustrating to come to this page and see no updates

i agree with you. no means no. whatever her reason may be, she said no and everybody should respect that. she may change her reaction later but at this time it is a "no" and people should accept that

why does it seem like i and candeemichelle are the only ones who think something is wrong here? yang mi is being harassed. attention all men: cute or not, when a woman says "no" you should take a step back and respect her decision. stories like this cultivate the misconception that when women say "no" they really mean "yes". totally not true! xiaolu forcing yang mi to ride with tang jun when yang mi is clearly uncomfortable with his presence is unforgivable. i would not want to be friends with her. xialu has just met tang jun in that dinner; she does not really know his character yet. being friends with zhehan doesnt necessarily mean he is not a jerk. in fact, he is acting like one

i really don't understand his persistence in taking responsibility as a father

"... the feeling of being protected by someone was great" yes it is

:D

me too

yes

so, we never got to know what the award was

really curious about that award

agree
