Description
In her previous life, Gu Ying gave up her dignity as the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Dongping’s manor for Jiang Yin. She pestered him relentlessly until she finally married him. Later, Jiang Yin rose to great power and status. He schemed against the state first, then killed her father and exterminated her clan. She was betrayed by her s*umbag husband and sister-in-law. They broke her legs and threw her in a dilapidated temple, subjecting her to all kinds of humiliations for ten long years. After being reborn, Gu Ying returned, ready to take revenge. The first step was to cling onto the “fiancé, Young Marquis Yong’an”, kick away the s*umbag, fight the s*umbag sister-in-law, and play the prestigious families of Bianjing for fools! The second step of revenge was to cancel the engagement with the “fiancé” and flee to the borderlands, taking her younger brother to find their father! The third step of revenge was to find a meek, submissive man to marry, staying far away from the s*umbag husband, and live a happy life! Yet she never expected that the leg she clung onto by accident did not belong to the Young Marquis, but the legendary, sinister and ruthless Crown Prince Zhao Changdu! Everyone said the Little Prince was hard to handle. This time she would certainly lose her life. Yet unexpectedly, she could not only handle the Little Prince, but also arrogantly ride on top of him. “Husband, you have cultivated excellent masculine virtues, your wife cannot run away!” The subordinate was shocked: “Little Prince, you stay up all night reading, you wouldn’t be looking through the Dongli Punishment Illustrations Manual to torture your wife, would you?” Zhao Changdu remained expressionless: “Thank you for your concern, but this Crown Prince is cultivating masculine virtues to please his wife.”

My Thoughts on After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me
First Impressions
Okay, buckle up because this one's a wild ride! After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me throws you headfirst into a world of ancient China, rebirth, and revenge. The premise is intriguing: a woman named Gu Ying, reborn after a horrific life, seeks to avenge herself and find happiness. I was immediately drawn in by the potential for a cunning protagonist dismantling her enemies.
What Works Well
Despite some reservations, there are aspects I appreciated. Gu Ying, though not an OP genius, is refreshingly human. Her struggles feel real, and her attempts to navigate a treacherous society are compelling. Several people mentioned that they liked how she doesn't immediately succeed at everything, making her more relatable. I also found the male lead, Zhao Changdu, to be a complex character, even if his initial actions are, shall we say, problematic. The story does offer a lot of drama and plot twists which some found entertaining, and the theme of family being important was a definite plus. Some readers liked how the MC wasn't too aggressive nor passive.
Areas of Concern
However, the novel isn't without its flaws. The pacing can feel uneven, with some plotlines dragging while others are rushed. I also saw a recurring complaint about the translation, with inconsistent names and pronouns causing confusion. The biggest issue, however, is the handling of sensitive content. There are numerous references to sexual assault, and some found the male lead's behavior towards the female lead to be troubling, especially in the early stages of their relationship. Many felt that the revenge wasn't as satisfying as it could have been, with the FL letting her enemies off too easily.

Final Verdict
After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me is a mixed bag. While the premise is engaging and the characters have potential, the uneven pacing, translation issues, and problematic content prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're a fan of historical romance with a heavy dose of drama and can overlook its flaws, it might be worth a read. However, proceed with caution. I give it a tentative 3 out of 5 stars.
