Caicai just got a devoted wife because her mom wrote a cool plot twist. Adorable.

Youzi's such a cute kid...

If I was Youzi's mom, I'd be ugly crying right away.

It'd be nice to have a spinoff of when they started dating, and if possible, all the way to when they're old ladies.

That show really was an emotional rollercoaster for Youzi, haha.

Realistically you are watching that and going "it's only halfway through the runtime, no way they are dead" ^^

Oh, but the writing of death threats to the writers starts long before halfway point

This manhua is so gay damnit!

Wait a second, is that the flame emperor/ Edelgard in the upper corner of the last panel of chapter 6, page three?

Y'know I was wondering if Youzi was maybe adopted?
She's naturally blonde but her mom has black hair and her dad in the flashbacks had dark hair as well.

Of course hair dye could be a thing and maybe standard genetics rules don't matter but I was just curious.

All the same, she's our adorkable babyyyyyy

Ren and her brother have pink hair, and the Chen family all have silver/white hair. I don’t think it’s going to be a thing but I could be wrong. I guess that goes back to the point about hair color being genetic. We’ll have to wait and see, blonde is a recessive gene though, so it’s still genetically possible.

The death threats caught me off guard, i lmao'd hard (writing death threats to authors almost never is okay though realistically)

I don't get why anyone would play such a retro game these days.

That woman don't know what she's talking about. Tetris is peak gaming

Isn't this just a way to make them easier to recognize? Like the old anime trope of having characters with blue hair, pink hair, green hair, every color in the rainbow; it makes them more distinctive, unlike giving everyone black hair.

No, this is clearly an AU where Chinese genetics include white and pink hair.

:p

Sure, but the author has put in other hints and clues for later revelations that appear to be small things at first. I’m just not ruling it out, especially since it has seemed to follow a logical pattern so far.

Yeah I also take issue with this word!

That's the explanation for characters having unusual/unrealistic hair colors in general. The issue here was Youzi having a different hair color from her parents when other characters in this serie have the same unusual hair color as their relatives.
Especially, since in Youzi's case, her hairstyles and the fact there aren't many other girls her age would make her easy enough to recognize.
Now, yeah, it could just be that the artist thought the design was cuter that with that color.

I love how much efforts the creator put into the manhua. All the tiny details we saw in the earlier chapters are building to the final crescendo that's coming. It's so subtle and not in your face that it's rewarding when you find these little Easter Eggs

No, "almost" is fine. There's always exceptions. To take the ultimate example, there was this dude wrote a book called "Mein Kampf" that I'd have been fine with people sending death threats to.

Clearly, the translator group agrees with you.

Thank y'all for pointing out all the things we may have missed!
