National Film Empress Was Sweet As Honey

“Young Master Ye! What happened that year was an accident! I didn’t mean to do it!” “So, you don’t want to be responsible for it?” The handsome, quiet, elegant and magnificent man narrowed his eyes dangerously. There were two little buns next to him. One on the left and one on the right. Both also looked at her anxiously…… During her coming of age ceremony, her s*um older sister set her up and she ended up giving birth to two dead babies with unknown father. Four years later, the king returned! A jerk and a lowly bit*h tried to oppress her but received a slap on the face. Those who owed her, don’t even think about running away! Without paying attention, she became the notorious ghost doctor, the God of Painters that was revered by tens of thousands, and she even easily got her hands on a world-class giant star spirit tablet….. Once not careful, she was picked up by Ye Lixiao, the rumour ruthless and cold-blooded Patriarch of Ye Family that everyone was also afraid of. Everyone also said that Ye Lixiao was someone with a clear heart, did not have much desire and did not like to go near the opposite s*x. Xing Luo: F***! If she knew who it was that simply spread this kind of rumours, she would definitely kill that bastard!

## My Thoughts on National Film Empress Was Sweet As Honey "National Film Empress Was Sweet As Honey" had me intrigued from the start with its tags: gender bender, cute children, and doting love interests? Sign me up! But after diving in, I found myself with mixed feelings. ### First Impressions The premise is definitely appealing. A female lead overcoming a tragic past with a positive attitude while navigating the entertainment industry? I'm generally a sucker for those kinds of stories. The cute twins added an extra layer of sweetness that I was hoping would keep me hooked. ### What Works Well The female lead's resilience is genuinely likeable, and the author does a decent job portraying her journey of self-discovery and success. I thought the dynamic between her and the twins was precious, and provided a lot of heartwarming moments. The "love interest falls in love first" trope is also well-executed, adding a dash of anticipation and excitement to the romance. ### Areas of Concern However, I have to admit, the pacing felt off at times. There were moments where the narrative dragged, with excessive descriptions that didn't contribute much to the plot or character development. This made it difficult to stay fully engaged, and I found myself skimming through certain sections. The insta-love aspect also felt a little rushed and unconvincing. I struggled to fully buy into the relationship between the leads, as the connection felt somewhat superficial. ### Final Verdict Overall, "National Film Empress Was Sweet As Honey" has its charms, particularly the cute children and the female lead's positive outlook. However, the pacing issues and the somewhat unbelievable romance prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a lighthearted read with adorable children, it might be worth checking out, but be prepared for some slow moments and a romance that might not fully capture your heart. I'd give it a tentative 3 out of 5 stars.
