I heard that you were telling people that you don’t love me anymore.” Meng Chu clutched her naked chest, shrank in the corner of the bed, and shivered: “No, no. I love you to death.” Chen Shuguan’s eyes flashed under his glasses: “You said you want to die.” Meng Chu: “…” Chen Shuguan wanted to kill Meng Chu at first sight.

## My Thoughts on *The Male Lead Always Want To Kill Me* ### First Impressions Okay, buckle up, because *The Male Lead Always Want To Kill Me* is definitely a wild ride. Going into this, I knew it wasn't going to be a fluffy romance, and the tags alone (adult, dark, psychological, smut) confirmed that. The premise is intriguing: a woman reborn into her 18-year-old body, reliving a past relationship with a man who ultimately destroyed her life. She's understandably terrified, and that sets the stage for a tangled web of obsession, trauma, and… questionable romance. ### What Works Well Despite the heavy themes, I can see why some readers are drawn to this story. The female lead's internal conflict is compelling. She's caught between her past life's trauma and her current reality, hating the male lead but also grappling with confusing feelings as he changes (or appears to change). Some found her character to be a believable mix of strength and vulnerability, torn between escaping her tormentor and the confusing emotions he evokes. I can see the appeal in a dark and twisted love story that keeps you guessing. It's a definite page-turner if you're into that sort of thing, and the male lead's complexity, however disturbing, makes him a compelling character. ### Areas of Concern Now, for the not-so-rosy aspects. The novel delves into some seriously problematic territory, and it's not for the faint of heart. The initial dynamic between the leads is deeply disturbing, with elements of r*pe and abuse that some readers found irredeemable. It seems the male lead's "redemption" arc is contentious, with some feeling it falls flat and doesn't excuse his past actions. I have to admit, I can see where they're coming from. The age gap between the leads is also a major red flag for some, adding to the uncomfortable power imbalance. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning (Okay, here's where we get into potential spoiler territory, so proceed with caution!) Some readers pointed out that the male lead essentially changes his appearance and identity to win the female lead over again, which some found ridiculous and hard to believe. The circumstances surrounding the female lead's pregnancy and her feelings toward the child are also points of contention. ### Final Verdict *The Male Lead Always Want To Kill Me* is a controversial novel that elicits strong reactions. If you're looking for a lighthearted romance, steer clear. However, if you're intrigued by dark, twisted tales with complex characters and don't mind navigating some very problematic themes, this might be your cup of tea. Just be sure to go in with your eyes wide open and be prepared for a bumpy ride. For me, the heavy themes and questionable redemption arc made it hard to fully enjoy, but I can appreciate the author's skill in creating such a polarizing and engaging story.
