I am not fluent, but she is explaining which characters form her name since there are many ways to write Ni Yan in Chinese. (The translation often uses Yang, but the character here is Yan.) The Yan used for her personal name is a reference to a line from a famous Tang Dynasty poem which says something like "The sun shines in Lantian, and the jade smokes."
Seems odd they didn't explain the reality to her about it being temperature related. surely that shouldn't be kept secret from her.
Read this during a day of free reading and am extremely glad I did--the art is nicely done and improves throughout the story. Note: it is NOT complete as a full story; the first season of the manga was completed and translated, but it's unclear whether there's a second season or whether it was simply not translated into English. The story is interesting, and there's a good job done thus far with the fact that the main character Qinglan is stuck pretending to be her brother as she seeks to build power and work towards revenge. I'm going to dig up the novel now in original Mandarin, which is noted as complete with 1667 chapters but apparently got stuck in the trial read here on Webnovel.
This is one of the best modern history rebirth stories I've read and definitely worth a read. Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng's relationship is very slow burn but is one of the most realistic ones that I've seen in a Webnovel story. They share genuine respect while clearly having individual personalities and goals. The story setting in the 70s in the countryside in China during the late years of the Cultural Revolution and before economic opening provides a fascinating and unusual setting for the story for this genre, if somewhat whitewashed in terms of politicization. The side characters and relationships are largely believable, although Yu Yan as an enemy is almost unbelievably petty on many occasions. Best of all, this story has a clear path and wraps up nicely at only (!) 520 chapters, making it extremely readable compared to most of the behemoths on Webnovel. Good option for a few evenings of chill reading.
If you enjoy the rebirth, hidden identity, building-a-business empire story with a supernatural power plotline, this is an excellent example of this chill reading genre. I have completed the entire story and it gets nearly five stars as an overall very enjoyable story. While the main character and love interest are both overpowered, there is a good cast of characters in the form of likeable family members and friends, a slow burn romance, and rivals or villains with more nuance and reasonable motivation for their behaviors than most similar stories. Heartily recommend as a fun light reading novel with completed English translation.
The premise for his fake death was always a bit ridiculous, but at this point his family is already implicated, so what is the point of not telling them?!
If only the readers had a clue what else she was getting up to while in the capital...
This is a largely enjoyable read with decent translation and all the usual hallmarks of the genre: woman who was blinded by love in her first life, face slapping, unexpected skills, and a dedicated love interest. BUT it ends very abruptly, in a way that leaves many questions. If you like a conclusion, this one may not be for you. And just as importantly, the romance is unsatisfying because the main character doesn't seem to genuinely accept a relationship with the love interest. I can't recommend this one unless it's free.
It's the name of the peak she is claiming to be from within the Beast Tamer Sect; they forgot to translate it.
The translator messed up here; he should be saying his name and then explaining which Chinese characters are used for his name (IE, My name is Lin Ze, the Lin character with double trees, the Ze character with...).
