She always adds these poor females that the audience loves to hate just to make her main female lead look better. Examples include, Sujin(10 mi of peach blossoms), Ji Heng (Pillow Book) and the mute girl in Hua Xu Yin.
Why?ġ) All of her works have catty, snooty, bitchy, poor characterized, plot convenience side female characters. I might as well say this here since this all relates, but the present me holds Tang7’s work in disdain. Yehua and Qian Qian has not reached that point yet. Us readers understand why, but does the female lead? Good relationship = good communication. I feel that he keeps way too many things hidden and even by the end of the novel, he never explains why he took her eyes. You know, the typical Chinese perfect male lead that pretty much exists in every single Chinese novel. I feel he is just another ideal Chinese male who is good-looking, good at martial arts, cold to everyone except the female lead, perfect in every way, has AT LEAST three females after him, etc. I thought God and fairies should be busying themselves with watching over mortals and other work? Why are they bothering with trivial love affairs night and day?Īs for Yehua’s character, well I found him attractive at first, but now? Ehhh, not really.
Same with all the other Gods and fairies or whatever.

Not mention, I feel she has too much free time. She is so indecisive and tends to lead on and is always in denial. Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms had weird filler scenes with characters like the Demon King that are quite boring in my opinion so I skipped those parts.īai Qian Qian’s character was terrible in my opinion. Especially the female lead.īut like I said, after reading more c-novels, I found much better consistent ones. I think what made this novel so attractive to me was the fact that the male lead did something utterly unforgivable and it makes the readers despise him only for everything to be revealed in the end and make the readers weep with angst and guilt. I thought he was just some side male character the female lead will get over and she will end up with another guy. I hated Yehua then and never imagined he would be the male lead. The novel started off with Suzu or Bai Qian Qian (the female lead) reminiscing her past with Yehua and how she came to lose her eyes. I realized the plot was quite inconsistent and the characters sort of flat and bleh. Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms suddenly became not so great to me. Of course, after reading a lot more c-novels during these past months and getting addicted to it and living my life as a zombie, Tang7’s novels don’t really appeal to me anymore. Since this novel was my first, I thought it was really good with an attractive male lead like Yehua and I originally thought no other author could possibly write as appealing books like Tangqi Gongzi. So I thought, to celebrate my joining the c-novel as Little Winter or Khue-Tu Tran, I should start with a review on my very first c-novel. Granted, Donghua does redeem himself by the second book, but it wasn’t enough in my personal opinion. I have a fine line between a “black-belly” and an outright douchebag. Kind of ironic isn’t it? I just cannot bring myself to like Donghua Dijun.
To my astonishment, after reading both books, I found myself like Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms much more. I thought Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms was a novel I had to read before I get to the Pillow Book so I reluctantly forced myself to read a novel I thought was going to be boring before I could get to Pillow Book. After a lot of searching and probing, I found sites like Hui3r and Shushengbar. I was looking for random Asian songs on youtube and I came across a Pillow Book video and I thought the characters looked interesting especially with a male character with white hair so I googled it up. How I came to the c-novel world was kind of interesting. Tang7’s novels were the very first Chinese novels I started out with specifically 10 Miles of Peach Blossoms. Okay, so this I have decided will be my first post as contribution to the C-Novel community not counting my Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms theme song translation which is currently on Hamster’s blog. I was going to write reviews, but then I’m probably going to end up with something of a mixture between ranting and bashing LOL.
