Description
Married for two years, Su Bei has always been looked down upon by her mother-in-law because of her rural background. In front of relatives and friends, her mother-in-law constantly harasses her, mocking her for using any means necessary to climb the social ladder. Openly and covertly, she belittles Su Bei, comparing her to a chicken that can’t lay eggs. Su Bei finds it difficult to speak up, facing constant harassment from her mother-in-law, a husband who is inadequate in satisfying her desires, and her own dissatisfaction. In order to save her marriage and protect everything she has, the embittered Su Bei chooses to seduce her elegant and refined father-in-law as a way to seek revenge against her mother-in-law. Wen Guodong, a mature and dignified retired cadre and the head of the judicial bureau, is surrounded by countless admirers. However, he becomes infatuated with his daughter-in-law. Su Bei possesses both beauty and intelligence, gradually bringing down her father-in-law, a respected old cadre, and stepping on her mother-in-law to elevate her own position. She even throws her son, who has secret relation with his grandfather, to be raised by her mother-in-law… Engaging in multiple affairs and disregarding moral principles, the protagonist is a scheming woman with a large chest and cunning mind. The story revolves around the affair between a well-endowed and eager daughter-in-law and a refined and dignified retired cadre.

L*st and Thirst Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on L*st and Thirst
"L*st and Thirst" certainly lives up to its name. This novel dives headfirst into the complexities of forbidden desire, and I found myself both captivated and slightly scandalized by the intricate web of relationships it weaves. It's definitely not for the faint of heart, and if you're expecting a sweet, fluffy romance, you've come to the wrong place.
First Impressions
My initial reaction was a mix of intrigue and caution. The premise itself – adultery, complex family dynamics, and a strong female lead navigating a world of wealthy characters – immediately grabbed my attention. I was curious to see how the author would handle such sensitive and potentially explosive themes, and I definitely wasn't disappointed by the level of drama.
What Works Well
What truly elevates "L*st and Thirst" beyond typical smut is its commitment to character development. The female lead is, thankfully, level-headed, which is a breath of fresh air. She's not just a pawn in someone else's game; she's actively making choices, even if those choices are morally ambiguous. I also appreciated the depth given to the secondary characters. They weren't just props to move the plot along; they had their own motivations and personalities, adding richness and complexity to the world. The author clearly put effort into building a believable and engaging setting, which is a major plus.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the unapologetic nature of the story, I can see how some readers might find the characters' actions off-putting. Both the FL and ML are flawed, and their relationship is built on a foundation of lust and perhaps a desire for power or revenge. If you're looking for characters to root for in a traditional sense, you might be disappointed. The story is also very focused on the steamy aspects, so if you're primarily seeking a heartwarming romance, this might not be the right fit.
Final Verdict
Overall, I found "L*st and Thirst" to be a compelling and well-written novel that explores the darker side of desire and ambition. It's a guilty pleasure, to be sure, but one that I thoroughly enjoyed. If you're looking for a story with strong characters, a complex plot, and plenty of spice, I'd recommend giving it a try. Just be prepared for a journey that's anything but predictable.
