It's not a real sibling relation if you ain't fighting over the bigger portions.

Best done with accurate hip slams to push them away from the table as you go for the golden fried goodness.

It's not really about sibling rivalry in this case, it's more about a systemic societal preference for one sex over another and the need to maintain an illusion of harmony by appeasing the loudest jackasses and forcing the quieter kids take the L for it. Ooof, the flashback brought up a lot of bad memories.

I suspect the author to have the same bad memories as you. I mean, this chapter does nothing to advance the plot; it's like on an entirely arbitrary whim she decided to do a random side story about a minor secondary character. The only explanation I can think of is that she felt the need to vent about some bad childhood memories and say the things she couldn't say at the time.

Isn't there an implication that Chu Chu likes Tang Chao? The angles of her watching the MCs interact seem like that to me. It's like she's realizing Tang Chao likes Li based on the last chapter and this one. And so she remembered that incident from her childhood where she's giving up something to someone else as she feels it's happening again. The end seems to imply she might want to act on her desires this time around.

At least, that's how I read this chapter.

Right, I think the issue being raised here is whether she should give up her crush. That's an issue that gets complicated when people have spent a lot of your life pressuring you into similar acts that weren't good for you. I know from experience that even when something is more clear cut than this and it's obviously better for you to do the thing, you can be resistant to doing it if people have pressured you into it in a hurtful way throughout your life.

I'm interested in f/f omegaverse stuff so I looked up the rest of the non-translated chapters and ohhh man. If anyone reading this is on the fence about whether or not to continue reading, I don't recommend it. The plot just gets more convoluted and also dumber. Reading up to the latest chapter felt like a complete waste of time. :/ I don't know how to do spoiler tags so I won't elaborate here, but I'm so annoyed.

As the quote goes, "Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man". Doomsaying doesn't do any good without backing up evidence.

The pacing and plot is so incredibly dumb and I'll zoom in to the part which irked me most. We spent a whole long bunch of chapters with Zhixu looking for her sister Zhishu, and then it turns out that Zhuci already recognised Zhixu from early on, because she was in a relationship with the sister until she disappeared - this is revealed in ch43. The plot (and subplot about Zhuci getting involved with Wangque) then drags on until ch48 when Zhixu finally talks to Zhuci. Zhuci claims that she doesn't know where the sister went after leaving the company and offers to help Zhixiu in her search for her sister.

Then some more meandering stuff with the relationship and search for the sister happens, until ch59 (11 chapters later, nearly 19% of the story so far) where it's revealed that the sister actually died from overwork years ago?? And Zhuci knew all along because she was RIGHT THERE when it happened and the sister died in her arms?? I know the sister backstory plot isn't what most people are reading this for, but it's such an important part of Zhixiu and her character motivations that to drag it out as bait and then come out with this ~twist~ just feels like a cheap trick.

Worse, it turns out that Zhixiu actually knew about her sister's death years ago! But she refused to accept it and suppressed the memories! And she eventually left home in search of her sister and her parents just left her! Zhixiu learns all this from her mother and has ZERO EMOTIONAL REACTION to finding out she had some kind of traumatic memory loss in the past?? Caused by her sister's death?? It's like a total non-issue?? I can deal with plot fuckery without blinking but the "character writing" (in quote marks because it's non-existent tbh) is completely unacceptable especially after readers have invested so much time on all the previous chapters.

And for those reading this for the f/f relationship: the two leads may get physical and intimate but they can't be honest with how they feel about each other - the writer is having waaaaaaay too much fun with the "they're interested in each other but not being honest" shtick, which may be fun but after close to 60 chapters it feels like the relationship between the leads hasn't made any meaningful progress. All the tension and anticipation for them to get together properly is just gone.

TL;DR reading this feels like the writer is trying to milk out as much drama as possible from a paper-thin plot. I'm fine with paper-thin plots in short series, but the way it's dragged out makes reading this a slog. 1) The story loses any sense of tension it had, which in turn causes 2) the character motivations to fall flat and 3) without decent characters you can't develop any relationship for readers to get meaningfully invested in. Massive waste of time all around.

This chapter certainly felt like it veered off into a tangent.
Defs not how you introduce side characters and their motivations properly, haha.

Just read something else? I honestly don’t see the point in complaining or leaving a negative comment. People are enjoying this. Especially since there are like 2 omegaverse yuri mangas… I like the tension build and slow burn. Stick to maybe short stories/ anthologies then?

It is a pretty slow,flimsy,plot that has low cringe factors.

But a bush hugging hippie was definitely not expected.

Thanks for the breakdown! I'll stick with it because it's not so bad in small doses, but I'm going to adjust my expectations accordingly. I tend to find that the long strip comics work best when you're just there for the panel to panel character interactions rather than the plot. I appreciate the overall summary!

Ah, achievements in ignorance. Li Zhixu is so busy covering up Tang Chao's hickeys, she accidentally activates the lead interviewer's half-dressed kink. Meanwhile, Tang Chao is so horny for Li Zhixu, she accidentally makes the entire jury hot and bothered for her abs. Poor Qin Chu just cannot keep up...

Wait did I skip a chapter or do I just have bad memory? Where did they hickeys come from?

Do I have to reread fron the start?

(Not that I mind, it's fairly short)

IIRC it's from the time Li Zhixu and Tang Chao had sex in chapter 2. Even though it was released over a year ago IRL, it was only a couple of days in-story.
