I think this series wouldâve benefited a lot if it were longer, especially when it comes to the romantic development. We needed to see more scenes of Shen Qingqiuâs feelings for Luo Binghe actually developing, and more moments of Shen Qingqiu actively realizing and confronting those feelings. Until near the end, he was still denying everything and insisting he was a straight man.
That said, I really did like the romance. I love Luo Binghe x Shen Qingqiu so much. I just wish we got to see more of Shen Qingqiu openly reciprocating Luo Bingheâs feelings before the main story ended.
Anyway, I canât wait to read the side stories. I canât believe this series has an entire volume dedicated to extrasâand that they focus on the side characters!! This was one of my biggest complaints about Heaven Officialâs Blessing: it didnât explore the side characters enough, and the extras (which shouldâve been for the side characters) were basically just more Hua Cheng x Xie Lian.
