The story uses a lot of telling words: “he said arrogantly,” “she said contemptuously,” “he said proudly.” These adverbs do the work of conveying tone, but they can feel redundant if the dialogue already carries the attitude. Sometimes showing through actions (e.g., “he sneered” instead of “said arrogantly”) is more effective.
The “fate in the book” exposition where Rong Yan remembers Qin Ye’s fate and the kids’ tragic futures feels like a classic motivation-setting scene. It works, but it’s a bit info-dumpy. She just stands there and thinks about how they’re all pawns for the female protagonist, and then swears to change their fate. I wish that realization had been woven more naturally into her interactions with them. Maybe when she sees Qin Mei’s skinny arms, she flashes to the abduction scene. Something more visceral. Still, I get why it’s there—it externalizes her internal drive for the reader. Without it, her motivation could seem shallow.
