I do like the way most of the character arcs end though.
About half of the book is various bonus stories taking place all over the chronology. Some of these are cute, some are **spicy** but really, most of them are pretty skippable and do not add all that much.

Since the majority of this volume was extras that is what the rating I am giving will reflect. Some of them were fine but I was not expecting the horny smut escapades that occurred and the rape-y vibes were prevalent in the non/dub-con scenes. There was some domestic bliss I suppose but even that felt like a superficial means to get them back in bed.

But there are so much intimate scenes. Very detailed intimate scenes. Also please read trigger warning for those if you're not confortable with it ! They're very much in love with each other, but gosh that was so graphic.
I love this series very much, but I'm not really an enjoyer of spice in written relationships, so all those part were a bit of a miss for me. However, having the main characters which I've grown to love, cherish and root for finally be happy and true to each other more than made up for my personnal preferences.
As for the rest, it is as exceptional as the rest of the series. The theme of reputation and presenting vs inner life is masterfully executed (through most of the main characters, each in their own way !), and I would like to shout out to the complexity and grey-scale of secondary characters. It could have been very simple, but in the end, we stand with Jin Ling knowing the culprits, but with no one to just hate in all simplicity.
The depiction of Jiang Cheng emotions was fantastic, and finished portraying a character that I really liked as a character, and at the same time despise as a person.
I'd like to end the review by saying that I began reading expecting a good romance, and what I got was a good story (with a good romance on top. A romance written on the ashes of a tragedy). The events and themes are amazingly told, and the way the characters are treated, respecting each of their quirks until the end, even during pay-off scenes, is truly commanding respect.
