Description

An arrogant personality with no brains whatsoever, she was the typical spoilt, rich child. He was the only one who could handle being her bodyguard. But how did this man manage her ? Did he use extreme and effective tyranny to counter her temper tantrums? He was so cold that even a polar bear would tremble. She didn’t have the courage to go against him. But this delicate lady stuck to him like super glue! Like a stalker, she followed him everywhere. This led to gossips flying everywhere. The most outrageous one was that he had abandoned his girlfriend to embark on a relationship with this rich girl! But he didn’t care what people thought about him. He didn’t care if they criticised or made fun of him. Even if he was being ridiculed as a dedicated watchdog, it didn’t matter to him. He had no qualms being in the same room with this spoilt child. But sometimes it only took a spark to light a gigantic inferno…. This is a short story about a rich spoilt girl, Song Yu Shang and bodyguard Xiang Yu. The story starts when Xiang Yu is assigned to guard a 17 year old Song Yu Shan, a girl he detests as being a brainless bimbo only interested in the latest bags and fashion articles. So when Song Yu Shan shows an interest in him, she is ruthlessly and immediately rejected. Xiang Yu moves on .. but a few years later he is drawn back to Taiwan. But the Song Yu Shan he meets is not the same girl he knew.

My Thoughts on Loving You Is Too Difficult

"Loving You Is Too Difficult" promised a dramatic romance, and while it delivered on some aspects, I found myself a bit conflicted by the end. It's a short, easily digestible read, but the execution left me wanting more depth.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the premise: a second chance romance with a beautiful female lead and a handsome bodyguard against a backdrop of past trauma. The early chapters certainly hooked me with the female lead's spoiled nature and the tension between her and the male lead. However, as the story progressed, I began to understand the criticisms leveled at the characters' actions and motivations.

What Works Well

The pacing is undeniably quick, which makes it an easy read. I appreciated the author's ability to evoke strong emotions, particularly concerning the female lead's tragic past and her feelings of abandonment. The translation was also well done, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the story. The later half, where the male lead tries to win back the female lead, had its moments, showcasing his dedication and love, even if it wasn't always explicitly stated.

Areas of Concern

However, I found myself agreeing with the criticism regarding character development. The female lead's transformation felt somewhat abrupt, and I wasn't entirely convinced by her "fixed" state at the end. Her initial behavior, while understandable given her background, sometimes crossed the line into manipulation. The male lead's actions were also questionable. His initial coldness and the way he handled his previous relationship raised some red flags for me. The story felt rushed, and it sacrificed exploring the emotional complexities of the characters and their relationships. The ending, while happy, felt a little too neat and tidy, leaving me with lingering questions.

Final Verdict

Overall, "Loving You Is Too Difficult" is a decent read if you're looking for a quick and dramatic romance. However, the lack of character depth and the morally ambiguous actions of the characters prevent me from giving it a higher recommendation. I'd rate it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars. It's an enjoyable escape, but don't expect a deeply nuanced or emotionally resonant experience.
