Sun Zhanxiang, though, is a sweet kid. Slipping those two candies to his sister when no one was looking was such a small but powerful moment. He's the only one in the Sun family who seems to care about her, and he's just a child. It really highlights how isolated the original owner was. I hope he gets more page time later.
The chapter with Liang De being embarrassed by the maid outfit and realizing Akiko’s behavior was a setup for the attack felt like classic harem-era misdirection, but it worked. The way the class reacts—laughter, indifference, then sudden seriousness—shows how desensitized everyone is. The line “points are life” becomes a mantra. That casual cruelty under a facade of normal school life is exactly the vibe the author is going for, and it’s effective.
The way the author slowly reveals the original owner's memories through the narrative is smooth. We learn about the engagement breakup, the family's exile, the disdain—all through Shen Fei's recollection. It avoids long flashbacks while still giving context. That's good pacing.
The security guard Uncle Wang being referred to as a “Demon Path Senior” who suppressed an entire region for thirteen years by stopping delivery drivers is the funniest concept in this whole story so far. The system frames it so dramatically, like he’s a legendary villain blocking cultivators from advancing, but in reality he’s just a grumpy old dude in a uniform who doesn’t want people flying into the neighborhood. The mention of the “Qinglian Sword Emperor” falling to him is a great inside joke. I really want to see more of these inflated descriptions for mundane things.
Gu Antong as a female lead is giving me major mean girl vibes. She’s supposed to be this beloved granddaughter, but her entitlement is off the charts. The way she sweet-talks her grandmother while eyeing her aunt’s dowry? And her fake concern about the baby being a girl so she can have a sister? So transparent. I can already see her causing major problems during the exile. She’s gonna be a thorn in Bai Suihe’s side for sure.
Despite being a zombie, Youxiang displays a range of emotions – anger, pride, fear, jealousy, happiness. She’s still very human inside. The part where she feels wronged when called a mute, or when she gets scared of the gun, shows she’s vulnerable. Her vanity is a running gag but also makes her endearing. The story balances her monster nature with her retained humanity well. It’s the core appeal that keeps me reading.
