u can chat here about stuff

Right now I hate the protagonist HAHAHA

Saaaame. Screw him and his girlfriend; i only want a happy end for the wife.

He's also a pussy, he's so righteous but we all know he's a little bitch

I really feel for the wife right now and she hasn't even said much hahah
My heart was aching for her when she came into his room and begged for some intimacy

Anyone else grossed out by the wet dream? 😵

Poor wife!! Lin and Manna are both so unlikable so far. Lin takes no agency for his own life - he’s such a weak man, and his entire life is driven by what he’s afraid others might think. Then there’s Manna who is just really manipulative and immature.

I don't think I've hated a protagonist this much LOL

The wet dream was ugh. It just goes to show how immature he is too. Too immature to manage his manhood, has an immature gf, too dumb know he had a good wife at home

Ugh Agreed!!! I’m waiting for there to be more layers and complexity to these characters?? They’re so one-dimensional

Hello! Just got introduced here. Lin's story is a very typical kind of Asian arranged marriage situation and I do emphatise with him but he's such a scumbag!!!

Yeah, at least there is some sort of friendship or cordial interaction -.- this asshole is just repulsed by her and it makes me so sad

Manna a home wrecking ho

Unfortunately such stories happened way too often in the past.

I'm really surprised at how much I dislike the characters. I pity shuyu so much

man i jus got to the theatre part she really be out here tryna score a date through a trap what a thirsty hoe manna is lol

I have so much dislike toward these characters and my heart only lies with shuyu. Hard working farm mamas are a gem

This main character is so problematic. I see why everyone has such thoughts! Is there any redeeming quality about him? I have been highlighting every instance of the word “waiting” and it seems like it’s been women waiting for him.

Well, she seduced him so the waiting I'd say is her just 'punishment' and she has no right to feel angry and upset about it.
