just a heads up, the novel’s filled with knives
I remember reading this novel on jjwxc and on meatbun’s twitter account. the pain of waiting for the update only to get hurt once you read it.. I wish I could read it for the very first time again
I started the book yesterday and Meatbun is such a great writer. So clear and her characters just stand up on their own. I get a very creepy vibe so far. Interesting. I can't wait to read more.
This year i started reading heaven official blessing book series (novel). Now i am reading the second book and I’m loving it❤️❤️.If you still haven’t read it i highly recommend to read it!!
1000/10 books
Currently on chapter 169 (reading a fan translation right now). Time and again Xie Qingcheng and He Yu break each other's hearts. I don't think I've cried so much over a novel before. Does someone know when these two will stop hurting themselves and just be happily together? Even just for a moment? Because I'm on the verge of skipping to the last chapter so I can see them "live happily ever after". I don't think I can cope with reading for so many heartbreaks. I'm not tough at all.

I'm interested where it goes. I don't know if I'm reading for a painful ride like you are talking about. I like a real romance between the characters. Anyway. Thanks for the heads up what's coming.

This though changes later on but because He Yu is too passionate and devoted, Xie Qingcheng is too cold and unwilling to share his own sufferings and there is a huge conspiracy both of them are related to in some ways, it's hard for them to make things work between each other and instead they end up hurting themselves and each other a lot. Sometimes without even realising it. And because He Yu is the more fragile, there are lots of tears and disappointments, and heartbreak on his end. There are some really pleasant and heartwarming moments between the two of them. It's just that they're short, few and quickly followed by more painful ones than the ones preceding the good ones. The novel is interesting and worth reading but it's quite tough at times and makes me wonder when the characters will be able to settle down. I hope you can enjoy it more than me.

I don't think I've cried so much over a novel before..."I know. I finished reading it a week ago. I was so happy when I read the last chapter of the main story that I wanted to cry like He Yu did then. I found the extra chapters quite enjoyable after all the pain and suffering in the main story, so in a way it was worth it just to get to that point.

I found myself wanting more and missing the characters. I kept wanting to go back to the story. It's different from anything I've ever read. We have the first 30 chapters or so. I wish they would publish these things faster.

I own the first volume but I really want to finish the book now, I will buy it later once it's released fully anyway to re-read it. Thanks
Just finished the first book! It wasn't quite what I expected but it was really good nonetheless. I won't lie, it took me a bit to get through the beginning of it... but after that it was a breeze. I can't wait to read the rest of the books.

So, are you saying that it pays to stick around and not be too hung up on red flag city? I must admit that I am slightly hesitant, because she is very on the nose...

If you ever find the full translation I would be really grateful

Did anyone else notice the street food they were eating. I keep wondering if it's a real thing. Surely Meatbun wouldn't just make something up like that, but I've never heard anything like it.They ordered fried rabbit heads. They ate the brains and spit out the bones. Is that a real deal? I was shocked. They must be sort of small bunnies because a rabbit head is sort of big and I can't imagine getting the whole thing in there. It seems very crunchy. It was just such an odd food choice. It's so odd, I figure it has to be real.
Pictures not for the faint of heart. It is a real thing.... That is not something I would willingly try. https://chengdufoodtours.com/whats-th...

Wow! Thanks Katie for that find. I don't know if I could eat it. I love a good rabbit stew, but I don't know about a head. Maybe, if a cute man was buying. haha. That's very different. So, it's real. Good ol' Meatbun to keep it real
it's one of asia’s street food delicacy so no one batted an eye on it. in a western perspective it's quite shocking to read but I assure you it was good as long as the marinade sauce is good haha
Rabbit stew is good. I haven't had that in forever. It's something about the bones. I enjoy watching eastern cooking videos but always wince when they cleaver up meat and leave all the bones.

Soaking it into the stew is probably a good thing.
Bones are good for stew and broth. I just prefer them separated so I can discard them. (or I cook whole and debone) Silly, I know.
Katie❄️ wrote: "Bones are good for stew and broth. I just prefer them separated so I can discard them. (or I cook whole and debone) Silly, I know."Katie, I know plenty of people who hate teeth on bones. They won't eat meat with bones in it at all. It's not silly at all.
It is extra work but then I can just eat. It's kinda like shrimp tail shells. I don't want to have to fuss with those either. I know some people eat them but they are just so plastic like.
