-a mix of Captive Prince, Mo dao Zhu shi and Poppy war
-Did not understand half the things going on, nor remembered the names (so the usual Chinese fantasy bl)
-there is a bit too much telling instead of showing
-I don't know what Shen Zechuan deal is yet, he is so mysterious so far
-why are they always tousling in the rain lmao?
-idk what to rate this yet, I need to read the other books first

I love Cezhou so much as a pair and think there are lots of really great, in depth characters here, but it’s just so hard to keep up with everyone’s names and jobs and the politics 😭
