The author just gives ridiculous excuses for the ml to act the way he does... Spoilers below

So in chapter 25 mc catches ml making out with a random girl after they were separated for a little while for a business meeting or something (I don't remember how long, maybe like a week) and the ml is like 'oh did you expect me to only have sex with you?'. Ml rapes the mc, then the mc is furious and says that he won't sleep with him anymore. One night ml goes over to his house and he's in rut and mc bites ml's ear while they're doing it so he's marked him. Omegas can mark and alpha forever but alphas can't do that to omegas.
Anyways the next day ml is furious because he forgot what happened the day before and an omega bit him. Since an omega's bite is forever as long as they're alive, he's trying to find the omega to kill him/her. A few more things happen and they find out that mc is pregnant. Mc says that it's not ml's but ml still says that he's going to marry mc and take care of the baby.
However by then mc has enough of ml and one night mc drugs the wine that ml drinks and tells him that the omega who bit him is mc. Ml falls asleep and mc runs away. He meets up with the blonde girl's brother (the hard of hearing omega) to talk about pregnancy stuff I guess.
Ml sends people to find him and he's also put mc in the news as a wanted person. A few guys recognize him from the news and almost rape him when this red haired guy saves the mc. I think he's a friend of the blonde guy and he takes him in.
Red haired guy takes him to the hospital to check up on his baby. Now you might think he's a possible male lead, but their relationship never develops that far. It seems like red haired guy might start to like the mc a little but then the ml comes and takes mc away. Before this mc found a picture online of ml kissing another guy. He has no hope anymore about their relationship. Ml says that he thought sleeping with others would 'cool down his feelings for the mc' but no one else can make him hard other than mc (wow... how romantic (╬￣皿￣)凸). Mc is like what about that guy that you were kissing?
And ml says... I seriously could not believe my eyes when I read this... HE COULDN'T SLEEP WITH THE OMEGA THAT GAVE BIRTH TO HIM. So he kissed his FATHER (this isn't some kiss on the cheek, it's full on mouth to mouth). He says he hates him but he has to take care of him. Is that filial piety? Kissing your own dad? He doesn't explain it at all. Honestly it's worse than him kissing a stranger, I don't know why the author thought this was a better route to go. Anyways that's where the raws stop so I don't know what's next. I want to stop reading this but I'm hoping the mc beats the shit out of ml either physically or emotionally at least once so I staying. He probably won't though. Are you hoping for repentance from the ml? You won't get any.
Even though the red haired guy only appeared for a few chapters, he already makes a way better ml than the actual ml. Why can't there be better ml's, or at least... why can't the author make the suffer the same amount as what the mc experienced? I'm so frustrated.
thank youuuuu !
now In just want ML to die... painfully... preferably while being raped. that would be perfect
Aight i think I'll stop reading this, not to my preferences lol
yooooo, i did not know all of this happened and I read the raws, keith. he really can catch these hands outside like rn for free with a 20% off discount,,,
Honestly I thought it would turn out to be an On or Off type of one, but doesnt seem that way.
Lemme take a chance to beat him till he's black and blue
I wish I could be like you... I'm torturing myself by continuing to read this
I'll be on the sidelines cheering you on
Yeah the ml in on or off is wayyyyy better. Keith is just a piece of shit
That sexy as man from On or Off! That passionate sex scene at the end!!! I screamed!!
Waittttt.. At the 'end'?? It's done?!
No no, I pray it's not! But the recent few chapters they have been f*cling like crazy!
If the spoilers in https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/college-student-empress.105394/page-5 are correct, it's seriously made me reconsider continuing to read this. And this spoiler may ruin the story for you, so be warned...

I fully trusted concubine Lin. I thought all the looks she was giving was just a red herring. But it turns out that she's a backstabbing asshole huh? WHY CAN'T THERE BE PURE FRIENDSHIP WITHOUT A GUY GETTING IN THE WAY GODDAMMIT.
I'm just... sigh. I really don't understand her mind. The emperor was into you, but you weren't. You had a friend that you liked. But of course the second the emperor is interested in your friend you start to feel jealous. And then plot to kill her. Of course!
Like wtf... All those years and you never saw the emperor that way, why's it gotta be now? I doubt she loves the emperor, she's just jealous because the attention's off her now
Ik she was sus from the beginning...
(I dont trust side hoes in manhwa's ) (￣ε(#￣)Σ
even before reading this, ive been considering of dropping this cuz of that dumbshit emperor
this is going to sound weird but... instead of her being jealous of the emperor suddenly liking the MC what if Lin got angry because the empress was showing affection towards him instead? since it really seems like Lin likes the empress
Honestly that's what I thought at first. I put so much trust into her and even as I read some of the earlier spoilers I was in denial.
However, that is definitely not the case, because in the spoilers she plotted the death of the mc. Ml was called away because Lin was 'sick' and in that time assassins came to kill the mc. Mc died and was 'reborn' in another body two years later and mc dressed up as a guy to become a servant in the palace. Ml fell for 'him' since he had so many similar mannerisms to mc, and when Lin realized this, she tried to frame the mc by hurting herself and actually RE-ENACTED the empresses' death (making it bloody and saying the same thing the empress said while she was dying) to bring back the Ml's trama...
Ahh but I liked her so much ;_;
I was even shipping her with the mc
Emperor gets better, he actually does mature. But Lin... gets 100x worse
Woah woah hold up? Are u saying empress gonna die? And reborn AGAIN?
I liked her too ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
Oml and she was actually getting on my good side-
Yep seems like it. I'm not sure how exactly that's gonna work tbh... who's body will she be in this time?
That's it. I'm dropping this shit show.
Btw, thanks for the info. If I have invested my time on this, I would be angrier than I am now.
No problem. I'm glad I learned this early on too since I had such high hopes for this manhwa
Apparently the delinquent is the seme! Cover is misleading
awww, what a missed opportunity
Too bad, im out :'(
Woohooo~
ima stay ~
Ah damn it
aww im dropping :(
Darnn
NANIII???! AAHHHH FYOOOO BADDDD
So I read the whole story ( https://anordinarymangareader.blogspot.com/p/do-you-know-fairy.html).
(Spoilers- warning, a huge rant)
Don't read this if you don't want to be spoiled for the entire story.
.
Honestly I think that it started very strong but emm, it went downhill fast... the relationship development is way too quick, the ml seems to fall in love with the mc for no other reason than that he feels comfortable around the mc, which is just because his fairy is by the mc's side. Later ml's fairy disappears and it was strange to me how he has a headache but it disappears once the mc appears even though ml's fairy isn't by mc's side? Sure that might be because of love but at this point they've only known each other for a few days, and the only reason ml even sat by mc was because of his fairy. At that point shouldn't he feel like something is off because he doesn't feel like he did when his fairy is around the mc? I really felt as though the plot was controlling the characters instead of the other way around.
Plus the background characters are so 2-dimensional it's unbelievable. Actually no, it's the main characters that are two dimensional and the background characters are in one dimension, because they are so flat they imploded on themselves and became a dot. They act in totally illogical ways and for some reason they comment on everything the mc does. Like what business do they have getting all up mc's grill? If the transfer student wants to sit next to the mc so what? If the mc is laughing why do you still have to comment 'oh he's weird but he's pretty'? What the heck? You have to constantly talk about how strange the mc is? Does the world revolve around the mc or what?
Characters act like they're kindergartners and can't seem to talk things out AT ALL. Ml's fairy gets mad then disappears for half the story. Ml gets mad then stops talking to the mc, for an absurd reason. The mc has only known you for a few days! It's completely reasonable that he doesn't want to tell you his deepest darkest secret just yet! And when they DO make up, guess what? The ml wasn't mad to begin with! Apparently he completely disregarded yesterday's conversation even though he seemed so mad about it and the entire time he was just nervous because he wanted to confess to the mc! First of all... WHAT? Um, are you just gonna ignore what happened? And where the heck did THAT come from? You decided you were gonna confess after mc told you that his secrets were none of your business? Really? You couldn't find a more opportune time???
Mc tells him his secret, and ml accepts it right away. You know what, people have different reactions to stuff like this, it's whatever. But then the mc says something about ghosts and how they're dangerous and guess what? Ml says to go where they are to see if he 'can get an understanding of it so he understands mc's fears'. Huh?? You didn't hear what the mc said? Plus what would that even do? It's not like the ml can see it. But of course they go, because the author needed a climax to the story.
They go... and this starts one of the most bland climax ever. Basically they go to the street with the ghost and mc explains that here's where all the bad stuff have been happening. Ghost starts taking shape into something like a tornado. Mc's fairy turns into a human form and holds it back, but soon he is overpowered and turns back into a fairy. The mc decides that he has to do something to protect the ml and his fairy since he has been passive for the entire comic. He thinks ' I have to protect them!' while facing the ghost... and then he immediately gets dragged by the ghost onto the street. A car's about to hit him when the ml pulls the mc in but for some reason they both end up on the street, waiting for the car to hit them. Then the ml's fairy shows up out of nowhere and saves them, ruining the person's car in the process. He IMMEDIATELY dispells the ghost with one hit... I thought mc's fairy was supposed to be powerful? Why did his fairy faint while this one got rid of it immediately? And then ml finally understands mc and his feelings about seeing the guardian fairies! Except not really because this never happened before and it only happened because ml wanted to see the ghost... What was even the point.
I love the art. I loved the beginning of this story. But it's disappointing, really. Mc and ml got feelings for each other way too quickly which made their relationship feel cheap. If the author took more time making the characters feel realistic, and fleshed out the plot more, it would've been one of my favorites.
Thank you.
Np!

Okay if you read past this it's your own fault

Okay I read it from the link as well because I hate waiting and the first 3 chapters seemed SO promising. But what you said are my thoughts exactly. Everything went so fast it was confusing and rushed. I believe this could have been better had the author laid the plot out over at least 10 more chapters, but I could see it developed well with a total of 50. I'm not a webtoon artist so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about but I feel this way anyways lol. Also I don't know what the hell happened to the love interests fairy like why was he in the room the whole time under clothes. They also didn't really try to find them. The side character with blonde hair and the green haired fairy wasn't even needed honestly because it felt so out of the ordinary. I don't understand the point. The art is really good and the idea is a really interesting concept, but the execution just aint it. I didn't even read the rest after I saw love interests reaction to MC telling him he could see fairies. Like you said, everyone reacts differently, but this could have led to a good climax. ALSO THE SISTER and family like what the hell is with that. They're vaguely mentioned and should have been brought up a bit more. This is soooooo over the place sorry lmoa

Yea you addressed a lot of issues that I wanted to bring up!
Ml's fairy is plain selfish. He knows that the ml got into a car crash because of him but is still hiding away in his room. There was honestly no point in him even hiding if he didn't know the mc was coming because the ml can't even see him! I think the author kept forgetting that.
The green haired guy... why is he just looking for a fight all the time? And in the worst places? Who wants to pick a fight in a dirty bathroom or after waiting in a line for 30 min? Both times they were just plot devices to move the story along and it's soooo obvious. Also the reaction the extra characters had to the 'fight scene' in the restaurant was hilarious in how bad it was. So when the guy was picking a fight they quietly and nervously walk away but when the auntie comes by to scold him they all start clapping? Imagine that happening in real life lol. Auntie: "I need to have a talk with your mom about this behavior!" Extras: "Wow! Awesome! That's amazing!" Like wut is that reaction.
And yes the sister! What on earth is she doing? So she doesn't help him when he's actually being bullied, but wants to ruin the only friendship that he has?
While I'm ranting and nitpicking some more, let me talk about the ml, who is honestly the weirdest person out of everyone in the story. His thought process is inexplicable. He asks the mc if his sister looks like him, then when the mc says that she does, he wants him to introduce her to him. If I was in the same situation I would think like the mc-- why would he ask how she looks unless he was interested in that way? And then theres all the other incidents I listed in the rant above. There's also this tidbit from one of the extras where he explains how he fell in love with the mc. I wasn't expecting much, tbh, the mc was so passive there wasn't much to choose from. But still the reason was so bad it blew me away. It was... because he liked the mc praying before eating. No seriously, that's it. Nothing about his personality, just he likes how he looked when he was praying.
If there was a relationship like theirs in real life where they fall in love because of such shallow reasons, I can't imagine their relationship lasting long.
Thank u soo much ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

Ryuh Han's relationship with the MC... well, I don't think the author handled it well at all. I completed it and was honestly disappointed at how things went. I understood why the author did what they did, but it still felt... kinda lame.
Basically, Ryuh Han NEVER had any sort of romantic feeling towards MC. Any "jealous" moments that you see? That's him "being a good friend" and worrying about him befriending/dating a gangster.
So the author chalked it up to MC having delusions about Ryuh Han leading him on and it gets resolved so quickly it left me reeling. Guess what? All those times before he wasn't leading him on! He was just being a shitty 'best' friend!
The author probably wanted to go this route so they could redeem Ryuh Han but... c'mon, really? I don't even know if its a valid excuse. There were no signs of this at all! The reasonings provided were so flimsy: if he's so worried about his friend, why didn't he show it before? Why was it only when ML came around??? Did the author want to make a plot with a love triangle but decided last minute that she didn't want Ryuh Han to be the bad guy? Is that it???
I am really sorry I meant to up vote
To be fairly honest, I thought the relationship between Ryuh wasn't handled that poorly. I don't think we can rule out the Ryuh Han didn't have any romantic feelings for MC. I remember in the first couple of chapters, MC was having a flashback to when Ryuh said he would choose MC over his lover if they were both drowning which, obviously isn't a typical thing to say to just a friend. Relationships aren't 2 colors, but a spectrum. We have no idea what Ryuh is thinking and whether he actually has feelings or not. You have to realize that coming out and being on terms with your feelings also plays a part in a relationship and especially one thing isn't seen as the typical relationship. If we go deeper, Korea is pretty split on LGBTQ relations, so it is probably difficult for anyone to come in terms with this and be open about it. While I do understand that the situation in general could have been handled better, I don't think it was that terrible.
As a character though, I dislike him. If he did develop romantic feelings he pushed them down ,as hes often in relationships. On top of that, in recent chapters, he's been controlling for no reason whatsoever with, like you said, the only justification being he's a friend. I really do think his character could have held improvements, if author was going to make Ryuh Han worry so much about MC, I think it would have made more sense to include something that shows this.
I don't think author meant for this to be a love triangle but, rather a theme of moving on. MC had been in love with Ryuh for a very long time now and can't admit his feelings to him. It's been a one-sided love (from MC's pov, unsure about Ryuh). I can't speak for author, but I think that's where they were going with this, if she had wanted it to be a love triangle, she could have made it clear in the beginning that Ryuh Han was a serious competitor.
This reminds me, I have an English Test tomorrow
Yeah was disappointed with that too and the thing is they could’ve actually made him a actual good friend that still causes drama they could have made it so A ryuh makes the gangster jealous of how close he and mc are and which causes strain on both mc relationships
Or b have it so ryuh stays the same earily on and around the trip chapter ryuh develops feelings so at point it kinda explains his actions or ultimately have ryuh not do anything and just serve as the straight friend crush of mc and that’s it I wouldn’t have been disappointed with those outcomes but that’s my opinion
That's fine!
Okay, I understand where you're coming from, but from what I read (it's coming up soon in chapter 19) they had a talk about their relationship and it's pretty clear the Ryuh Han has absolutely no romantic feelings towards MC. He was basically like "I'm your best friend so of course I'm gonna be worried about you hanging out with a gangster!" And then MC had a realization that Ryuh Han never viewed him romantically and that he was just imagining it all before. That's literally in his monologue.
And your point about Ryuh Han saying that he would choose MC over his lover is exactly why I thought it was strange that he really only viewed him as just a friend. It could be that he's trying to play it off, but honestly there aren't any signs of that. When MC and ML are all lovey dovey later in the comic, he's not jealous one bit and acts how a normal friend would act.
I do agree that the author probably wanted to make it about the MC moving on from his feelings, but I think it was still done rather poorly. They had ONE conversation that lasted like 6 panels and suddenly he was over him. I think it should've been more of a process than just wham bam thank you ma'am, oh we're bff's so I don't like you that way any more. Perhaps Ryuh Han was never a viable ML, but I think there could've been a smoother transition in their relationship, not just him ignoring him half the time to suddenly being possessive to being all buddy buddy with him. That's just my opinion though ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Lol good luck on the English test
Yes, me too. I was shocked.
Yep it makes a lot more sense how Ryuh Han is acting if he actually liked the MC romantically
Exactly lmao it was so hasty like the author came in blasting into the plot, shouting, “OKAY GUYS, PACK UP, QUICK PACK UP, NOW!”
Yeah! They literally wrapped up such a big conflict so quickly! Like it was a shock to my system when I read that part lol. Ryuh Han's actions are so inconsistent with what he's saying and the MC just accepted what he said without questioning anything.
I feel like you’re thinking a bit too much into this. Not to invalidate any point you made, but I just feel like it was purely platonic friendship from Ryuh Han’s standpoint. The only explanation is that Ryuh Han is just a twisted kind of friend, and the MC had his rose-coloured glasses on.
Yeah you're probably right, if author had wanted Ryuh Han to have feelings but not be able to say them they would've added a few scenes that would have described that. Ig the only thing that's really weird to me is the scene when he says he'd choose MC over his lover. I totally get it though, for right now it's just a friendship and I really do think author should've provided more justification on why he's acting the way he is. Istg my English teacher has forever scarred me, her analysis question are going to be forever engraved into my head.
Lmao English teachers are the worst criminals of simplicity, indeed
The author really pulled a fucking number on us tho :’) with all of us feeling intense hate for Ryuh Han for very obvious (obviously misleading) reasons.
Sorry but... wtf kind of ending is that? It's like the author dragged on for dozens of chapters when it could've been used for more important stuff (like idk, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT? or RELATIONSHIP BUILDING?) and then all of a sudden got tired of the whole thing and tried to wrap it up in one chapter. The game thing was just stupid... literally contributed to nothing except a half-assed couple that was probably only used to placate those who wanted the main character to end up with something. What happened to him and blondie? Was it all just ship tease? Are they total strangers now that blondie's reverted back to his old ways? Never seen a story so unnecessarily long yet fail to acknowledge the main point of the story
I feel like people are being too harsh on the MC and this manhwa. For those who say that the MC is annoying, I don't really see why. The MC *accidentally* gave the guy a love potion. He is madly in love with her right now, so what is she supposed to do but date him? It's her fault that she gave him the potion, so is she just gonna deny all responsibility and break his heart? What would be the right course of action? For something as fantastical as this, it's hard to imagine what to do, but by dating him, not only is she able to keep a close eye on him for any of the potion's side affects (remember, memory loss), he also will not be affected by her rejection (no matter if it's real or not, being rejected by someone you love *very much* will definitely affect a person's mood, and he depends on his emotions for a career).
Also, this is for that translator's note in chapter four when it tells her to be honest: what is she supposed to be honest about? That she accidentally gave him a love potion and all his feelings are fake? That his very own brother told her to break up with him because he thinks she's using him as a substitute? How can she be honest about this without causing tension between the two?
I know that the MC is flawed and has made A LOT of mistakes (my god she's a hot mess) but the actions she makes are understandable. She isn't actually using the guy as a substitute, although it seems so in the beginning. She defends him in front of her idol, and is willing to give up being a fan for her boyfriend even if it is fake love so she can avoid hurting him. She is aware of her own mistakes and berates herself for it, but she can't reverse it. She knows the consequences and is thinking realistically-- she isn't thinking that these feelings will continue after the love potion's effects are over. She's dreading the day when he doesn't love her anymore, but she knows that it will come and that's the important part. The actions that she's taking might be frustrating, but in that sort of messy situation, it's difficult to decide what's wrong and what's right.
So I read the raws ( https://m.ac.qq.com/comic/index/id/646674) and so far it seems like it'll be shounen ai. Understandable, since the censorship laws in China are so strict. (I saw a chapter where I think the authors were addressing it, but there was a bunch of Chinese that I couldn't read so I had to give up understanding it). There's probably not going to be any straight up smex but still some fanservice. Still entertaining nonetheless. Now on to the spoilers:

From what I could understand with my limited Chinese reading proficiency, MC and the girl don't really have any strong feelings towards each other. They met at a drinking party when the girl was feeling rebellious. She took him to her house that night (as a friend) and when her dad came, he started nagging at her about how late she was coming home and why did she come back with a boy??? She got angry and decided to say that he was her boyfriend. Not only that, but they were planning to marry. I guess MC just went along with the flow lol. Now here they are.
So yeah. No need to worry about any cheating (at least emotionally. since they technically are married it could be counted as adultery, but they both don't care so...).
The author's search history must be very... alarming lol
