So freaking lame. Guess the editors and publishers only care about $ now that the bar is pretty low to approve these cliche, unoriginal plot in the novel/manga; and JP viewers also have low standard about novel/manga as well.
Why though? Why the king fake it just to appease a Count? Why not let it become true, pester the Duke for an arranged marriage with his son, and thinking a way to get rid of him? He doesn't get anything if he gives Hailynn back to the Count.
Let me guess, the guy at the end is the mage of the enemy kingdom in her past life, want to exact revenge on her for choosing suicide to retain her honor, her dignity and to reniute with her friends, family and lover in the afterlife; made him let down his guard and was killed pathetically.

Sigh... You guys are spoil rotten by the "asshole/shithead character got redemption thanks to the main character" trope, justify everything for the neglectful, uncaring and abusive father.

Ugh... Rosalind, not nice to read at all, I also much prefer Rosalin.
So let me get this straight: for ten years, he knew she was chasing him, yet he did nothing (or did something but barely enough to stop her or maybe he didn't want her to stop because he loved being pay attention to) and ignored her. Now she (our MC) stops chasing him and does what he asks for...
Calling her character and now herself "The world's worst evil villainess" when her actions are pretty much a 2 or 3 on the villain chart, especially this is a wuxia/xianxia. Weird.
Yulan, where are you? Your love life is being surrounded by the attention seeking whore prince and his scheming glasses bastard, please come rescue her.
"The palace maids' uniforms play a part in crafting the royal family's image", "It gets dirty far more easily than the regular maid uniforms".
That's ironic. Either the royal family's image does not include the common folk or they are a bunch of cheapstake.
@novacas Like I said, she is conflicted, deep down she still likes Ishigami, but at the same time, hate him for "ruined her life". You can both like and hate a person at the same time.
