I had to stop at around chapter 12 or 13. I like the idea and I really wanted to get into it but our first introduction of the male lead has been push the female lead, who is weak and disabled in a wheelchair, into a fountain. over a misunderstanding that was out of her control. The supposed male lead shoved a disabled girl in a wheelchair into a fountain. our second meeting he sexually assaults her. I know a lot of people like to argue that forcing your tongue in someone's mouth without their permission or consent is not sexual assault but in most of the first world countries that exist that is considered a punishable crime. This is only the second time the female lead has met him and she doesn't even know his name. And this is only the second time we have met him. And those are literally your first two impressions of him. I've seen enough. I'm over this trope. I don't know why authors like to write male leads like this and they think it's cute or sexy or whatever but frankly speaking I just don't think anybody should support works that encourage this kind of romanticizing of abusive and toxic behaviors in relationships. I don't know if it was supposed to be comedic... maybe it was because the author thought it was novel to have the first incident have her wheelchair go out of control and have her fall face first into his lap which causes him to push her into a fountain. But I just don't really find it funny when someone pushes a disabled girl in a wheelchair into a fountain. A girl who's disabled enough to meet a wheelchair and thus too weak to really help herself outside of the fountain or protect herself in case she crashes into anything. And I also don't think it's sexy the idea of the same person who assaulted her to go up to her and just stick his tongue in her mouth. So I'm going to go ahead and stop it here. I don't want to waste any more time or money supporting a novel that writes this sort of trash
