I was really excited for this novel. I saw the summary, comments, reviews, and ranking, so I was hoping for a good novel with detailed characters, plot, development, and world building in general. However, I am really disappointed and surprised at how high the ranking still is. Even though I haven't read a lot of the novel, I can already guess where this is going. Another generic plotline that has been repeated thousands of time, romance that pulls together out of nowhere, plot holes absolutely everywhere. The characters have no depth, and the biggest thing I understand about them is that everyone is beautiful. The chapters are too short to have anything happening at all, and there are plenty of hidden gems better than this. I am not stopping anyone from reading this, and I respect your opinion if you do, but there are plenty of other well written books that have gone by unnoticed. This chapters go at the same rate of hidden marriage chapters (one important event happening every 10-20 chapters). I may be the only one who has the opinion, but as a veteran reader, I can tell what a good book is.

Exactly what i've been thinking, i keep scrolling the comment section and wonder why everyone give high rating. Also many readers compared this with ling lan's story, i cant agree w this, in my opinion linglan's story is really detailed on all side and i love it, not like this one. In my opinionthis one really are average one. Different person different taste i guess

100% agree!! I was looking forward to it too 😔 Very disappointed so far... By the way, anyone that compares this story to Ling Lan's (as mentioned by MethaHrnda) is brain dead...

I read this novel in Chinese; When I first started, at first I was excited because the protagonist was great I thought maybe the author would not spoil it as they do in a generic way ... but in the end as always the protagonist becomes stupid when she confronts the male protagonist, in Personally I do not like the god Qin, he actually forces the protagonist even in bed, then forbids him to use contraceptives? Where is that love? he is a bastard

True, but I feel it's better than the many other romance books that have been released. At least for my taste. My favorite on this site is Pick up a Son, get a free Husband. But most of the other books that are coming out are tragic repeated drama. I see a lot of people like that. So that's what were gonna get.

If I were to recommend a novel on this site, my favorite would be Doomsday Wonderland. The main character is an extremely intelligent female, and the plot is action themed. This book is the farthest thing from cliche, and I absolutely love it. Compared to novels like Hidden Marriage, which is focused on a generic plot line and fast-paced romance, Doomsday Wonderland is full of twists and turns that leaves me breathless. This is a novel focused on elements of world-hopping, but is unlike any other I have ever read. I do read, and love Hidden Marriage, but if I were to choose between 100 chapters of HM and 10 chapters of DW, I would definitely pick DW. TLDR; Go read Doomsday Wonderland because it is amazing and sorry for the long rant.

I heard a lot of different things about Doomsday, until I heard something negative about it, and didn't give it a chance. But seeing the way you put it, I should give it a try. Thanks for the recommendation.

. . . This might be a month late, but since I had just read DW, I must comment that LSJ is totally NOT an intelligent woman! She is a total meathead that most other character acknowledged her meatheadedness! She has cunning, but she is not truly smart perse, albeit that she also has some skills that help her fake being smart. It is still a good read though. Much recommend.

Same here. I've been reading this as far as I can go and still, it keeps me waiting. I really thought it would be worth spending every SS once I reach the ship being sailed but the chapters are way too short and mostly nothing ever happens between the two. It let me down and I might reconsider dropping the book sooner or later. I've almost reached 200 chapters so I'm hoping the ship finally moves or something, anything to keep my shipping instincts alive.

1. HOW DARE SOMEONE COMPARE TGIS VOOK TO BOSS LAN?! BOSS LAN IS THE SKY ABOVE THE SKY, THE BOOK IS ABSPLUTELY AMAZING. 2. Doomsday Wonderland is the most creative book I've read. Ever. Hands down one of my favorite books on webnovel. The world building is good, the TRANSLATOR is good,, and it's a total gem. It didn't even become premium until ch 500 and that's more than enough time to fall in love with the book. 3. I agree that almost all romance novels that are being released are cliche as he'll. I need to check out this book, because the synopsis is similar to the best book I've ever read which is...... 4. Rebirth of the empress of Military Lineage. Hands down best historical CN I've ever read. The MC actually faces danger and doesn't rely on the ML at all. The romance is satisfying, not too fast and not too slow. Just right. It's like a breath of fresh air among all the cardboard books out there. Hard not to pass up.

The Fl in this novel is not even close to Ling Lan(not hating). I guess they like this novel because of the FL and Ml's flirting(everyone's in heat when reading this novel basically). And I don't know why everyone likes the ml, I know he is powerful in terms of fame, wealth and etc. But, really? Is that what they like the most from a male lead? (again not hating, just stating my own opinion). I'm a woman too, although, I also like a powerful Ml but, considering how they exaggerate the Ml is a bit... cringy. Again, not hating. Just stating my opinion. You can like whatever you want. There is freedom in that after all.

High School Again: The President's Secret Lady Boss

“With every hour, day, and month I wait, I love you more.” Here is where the boss submits and the lady dominates. --- "A CEO hitting on a high school girl? Oh, how scandalous, Sir~” She is a sly teenager who likes to tease adults, use blackmail and ruin dates. But beneath that playful facade, she was once a naive heiress who was abused, mocked and neglected. Forced in a loveless marriage, she became even more miserable. For all her life, she tried to be perfect to gain acceptance, but in the end, nobody truly cared for her. Now that she went back in time after dying in the hands of her family, she decided to claim what was rightfully hers. "Hitting on you? Excuse me, who're you again? I don't think any girl would just ruin my date for no good reason – highschooler or not. That's unless you're actually a fan," was what her flirt of a future husband once said in this second life of hers. Though a jerk, this hot stuff has his uses other than being attractive. She needed him to get back on those who wronged her no matter how indifferent he was to her before. This time around, she will take her turn to piss people off while smiling all sweetly. With that in mind, she leaned closer to him and smiled as sweetly as she just imagined, making him drop his smug smirk and raise his brows in surprise. "I'm not your fan – I'm your future wife, you douchebag." --- Winter used to live with her adoptive older brother until her biological uncle and adoptive sister found her. She was a long-lost heiress whose deceased parents turned out to be an affluent and wealthy couple. While people would think that she was very fortunate, all this really did to her was take her freedom away. A whole new identity had been forced on her ever since. Meek and docile yet soft-hearted and hardworking – that she became. Trapped in expectations, Winter worked herself to death in order to be deserving of her position as the successor. Pressured by her family, she had to follow everything they said. Deprived of the freedom to decide, she was forced to marry someone who was older than her by seven years – and worse, a flirt of all things. Winter worked very hard but only to lose everything after her adoptive sister took the spotlight away. Everyone claimed her to be incapable of being the next head of their family business, thus making the adopted daughter the successor instead. Her uncle only used her in the end. This was what they were aiming for all along – to manipulate her and steal her inheritances before throwing her out entirely. Never did Winter expect that the first and last person who would at least pay attention to her at her worst was her husband, Marcellus. Flirtatious and playful yet detached and secretive – that he was. Devilishly handsome, head of a business empire, known for many notable attainments, and chased by beauties – Marcellus is a man of perfection. Not once did he treat Winter like a wife, though. She was nothing to him, and so was he to her. But before she met her eventual demise, he was the only person who tried to help her. Yet it was much too late. The next time they met again would be seven years back in time – where they would be a scheming duo of a bossy high school girl and a submissive conglomerate president. --- [Warning: Mature Content] (Cover Photo Not Mine: Credits to the original artist) - Follow me on Instagram (acieetin) - DM me on Discord (Aciee#1841)
