When I say I don't like it when a woman decides to "fix a man" in media I do NOT mean Orchid LBFAD because it was her fault Qingcang escaped from the prison at all and she was using her emotional wit to keep him from literally killing everyone in her homeland. The romance is just a bonus

This happens more than you think! It's also basically the plot of Offering Salted Fish to Grandmaster.

Zhang Ling He is one year younger than me so technically he cannot be gege but I WILL CALL HIM IT ANYWAY. I'm just glad that he's not too much younger than me to make it weird.

People joke that Affinity is every genre but Xin Xu is also every male lead honestly.

I'm brushing up on my Mandarin! What are your top recs? I'm not super into the historical ones though.

I have to first recommend the manhua that I and my team are working on

Offering Salted Fish to Grandmaster

Kill the Male Lead to Become the Villainess

House of Secrets

When the Villains Heard My Inner Voice

Su Yuan Refuses to Ascend

Beyond that

Heaven Official's Blessing (basic but popular for a reason)

I'm Really Not the Evil God's Lackey

Hope that's enough. I actually don't read CN enough to be able to actually read these things, I'm on the localisation team and turn the translation text into clear native English text but sometimes my HS1 reading level allows me work faster to compare the raw CN with the translation I was given.

I really love working in manhua localisation. Like it's such a joy. Who knew my love of CN media and my crappy HSK1 reading level would end up paying???
