Zenbu oshiete, sensei
Gosh, I couldn't finish reading this... The translation was wonky, the plot was hollow, the dynamic between them was waaaaay too unbalanced. Some may argue that this is grooming, while others will argue that it isn't. I say it is, because it's not always about physical or legal age. Some are very mature, confident and self-assured at age 16 while others are still not adults at age 25. FL's a really insecure girl with a controlling mother, and ML knows that full well. I find him manipulating. So, big no for me.

The pace is really weird. It's way too fast and messy. I can't figure out if it's the translation or just the way the author writes, but the dialogue doesn't make sense. It hurts my head to read and I'm not enjoying it.
