Soooo... is the MC a Human or a Vampire? The summary says he is human. But then why is the name of the series something to do with Vampire god...?
Could you tell me what this is actually about?
This novel is great the story, the characters, the world building everything just fit in place. Don't bother with the slow pace of it that's what make it enjoyable, everything just flow perfectly. The only sad part is that it don't translate anymore ?
love the ending
Well at least they put the racism tag lmao
Warning: Harsh Review Ahead
I'm not sure if it's the translation, but the logic in this story seems to fall apart at times. The author appears to struggle with basic math:
- Initially, the character is 30 years old, but a few chapters later, she's described as a college freshman. How does that work?
- During a shopping trip, the narrative gets even more confusing:
- "The shoes are inlaid with gold and silver. A pair of shoes is considered to be no less than six figures. It is a discounted out-of-season item."
Why would a wealthy matriarch, whose husband owns the store, be looking at discounted items?
- And are these shoes actually discounted? The text later states:
- "Your pair of wool pointed-toe Muller shoes are new arrivals from two days ago."
So, are they discounted or not? It seems like a translation issue.
- The math doesn't add up either:
- "The price is 188,800. The price of the suede high heels you just tried will be slightly more expensive, 228,800."
The character buys both pairs, but the total is:
- "The president brought his wife to buy shoes. He's too generous. One swipe is 1.2 million."
What kind of arithmetic is this?
The storytelling is disjointed and confuses me. I'm usually fine with poorly translated works as long as I can understand the plot. I appreciate the hard work of translators and can overlook bad grammar. However, when the story doesn't make sense or the facts are inconsistent, it's time to move on.
Read at your own risk. Maybe another reader can make sense of this. I'm not sure if the issues stem from the author or the translation, but I might try machine-translating the raw text myself someday to see what happens.
Edit: The problem lies in the translation. When I machine-translated the raw text, it read, "A pair of shoes below 6 figures is considered a discounted item." This small error significantly changes the understanding of the story.
Comparing the machine translation to the translator's version, it seems the translator also used machine translation but with worse grammar. The machine translation has a better flow and coherence, so I'll stick with that for now. Best of luck to the translator. My advice would be to copy the machine translation verbatim and only edit for necessary corrections, like changing 'Mrs.' to 'Mr.'
Good luck, and thank you for your efforts.
Edit: To the reviewer above (boredinthehouse), all the quotes in my spoilers were directly copied from the translated text provided by the translator. This did affect my comprehension of the story, which is why I mentioned it in my review. I don't know if the translation page was edited after my review, but what I quoted was exactly as it appeared on the translation page.
As I stated in my original review, "maybe another reader can figure this out." While "boredinthehouse" might have figured it out, there's no need to reference my comprehension in your own review. Please keep me out of your personal review. Thank you.
This is truly one of the best things I've come across recently. I appreciate all the characters, even the flawed ones like Kiolle. They're all well-developed and relatable. My only wish is for more translated chapters; it would allow me to indulge in reading extensively. Kishiar is a standout character, and I adore the dynamic between Yuder and him. This is an absolute must-read – highly recommended! ?
The novel "My Husband Warms the Bed" is a poignant exploration of love, marriage, and societal expectations through the lens of a Chinese woman's life. Set against the backdrop of traditional values and the ever-changing dynamics of urban China, the story delves into the complexities of relationships, the roles assigned to men and women, and the struggle for personal fulfillment.

Through Li's journey, we are reminded that true warmth lies not only in physical comfort but also in emotional connection and mutual respect.
