If the female lead shows up and we get a whole arc of "oh I know they should be together I can't get in-between even if I love ruby" bs I'm dropping this. Why do all these stories have fun premises then go down the same line???
Same, I’m so sick of the same thing happening over and over again.
Like I can understand this feeling at the beginning of the story, because you’re still figuring out everything and how everyone you know from the novel reacts and behaves, but if we’re THIS far into the story and nothing is like the OG novel and then the ogFL is back and “our” FL suddenly has the mindset of “oh she’s back so now everything I achieved will be gone and I will have to go,” then I’m personally out and dropping this.
Because what kind of logic is that? Nothing is trying to take away anything from you except for your mindset, and even if the OGFL would, the people around you wouldn’t care because they’re already fixated on you. This isn’t Penelope from Death is the only ending for the villainess where the system is against her, it’s just an average manwha where nothing is standing in your way except yourself, and your dumb belief that everything HAS to go according to the novel.
Sorry for the rant, I had to get it out.
I let this marinate a bit. So did the kid find out that his lovers mom is the killer and did he talk about it?
