The gay friend is relatable as fuck, if we were the MC I think a lot less of us would be caught up on so many yuri... lel.

THAT DOESNT REALLY GIVE US ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THE OVERALL FAMILY DYNAMIC.

The clues we have make it rather obvious no? I mean there doesn't seem to be anything strange or exceptional about it. Her mother is a super typical garden-variety Asian mom who demands the best for&from her daughter and will get into fights with anyone who goes against her wishes. We see her fighting with her husband for not being a good enough father; she's likely to fight with the school teachers as well; and if the girl was into sports she would certainly fight with the coaches asking for better treatment, more opportunities, etc.! Mom characters like her are a big classic trope in tv series, comics, movies...

The child with such a mom has of course ambivalent feelings towards her.

I didnt get ANY of the rest of that information out of it. You could assume that shes strict because she doesnt let Lin Luxi go out with any friends but then you could also assume that shes protective of her safety or perhaps shes clingy. I also didnt know that it was a trope that mothers who fight with their husbands also fight with people outside of the family?? The mothers I've known in broken marriages are basically the complete opposite with other people because they put on a very strong "happy family, happy wife" facade to cover up their deeply shameful brokenness.

I guess what you're saying is that shes a "tiger parent" which is a common Chinese stereotype. I don't want to assume that just because this manhua is Chinese, I'd rather actually receive more information about it through the story. I get that we're not going to be given that information through an exposition dump which I totally respect but that one little bite of information really baited me in just to totally leave us hanging.

So Lin Luxi and Zhao Yan are both lesbians and know about each other?

And it's more or less safe to assume (judging by Zhao Yan's reactions) that they don't know of any other gay girl in their school — besides them?

This is a So, Do You Wanna Go Out, Or? situation. (⁰͡ ͜ʖ⁰͡ ) Zhao Yan says she and Lin Luxi are besties but I wonder if they ever considered start dating and see what happens? (⌒.-)

Just tell her he was your Dad already. Also I'm not sure why she phrased that question to her mom that way. Also I so identify with damn it I want to play with a girl's emotions and all that.

this is a sweetened version of the blackmail genre, it deserves the wholesome tag.
Also TongTong reminds me of Koito, besides the hair color they share a light character psyche

Just wanted to point out that manhua tends to be written for a Chinese audience that doesn't assume it'll be translated so cultural stereotypes and common knowledge is something the author expects the reader to know. If you don't know then you just have to learn cause the original work was never meant for non-Chinese audiences anyways.

Hooray, progress! Also lmao at Lin Luxi's thoughts on a straight girl bullying her vs showering her with affection. And that valentines comic, whew

That was some kinky Valentines. Lin Luxi getting confused is hilarious tho but sadly understandable. It's the default to assume Tong Tong is straight but she never knows. Maybe if she does come out to her, something special happens. But it's gonna take a lot of confidence.

This is great. I like that the relationship is developing (helps one of the girls is a lesbian flat out) as well as the subversion of the bully play. Tho I wouldn't mind more snippits of it because the valentines day short was so cute
