Description
At the age of ten, Jiang Qi had black hair, shallow pupils, and a pale, delicate appearance. He often got injured, with blood flowing from his head. He was the son of a ‘notorious’ mu*derer in Chen Kong Alley, and people cursed him, saying that he had vile blood running in his veins. Except for Zhi Qi, no one paid him any attention. Zhi Qi often cried while bandaging his wounds, her voice soft as she asked, “Why do you always get hurt? Does it hurt a lot?” Jiang Qi smiled, the cold and rebellious boy appearing particularly obedient in front of her: “If you comfort me, it won’t hurt anymore.” By the time he reached high school, he had become the most famous madman, cold and ruthless in all Lin Lan. Zhi Qi remembered Jiang Qi once saying that most of his life was lived like a dog. He would rather have everyone fear him than let anyone bully him. Even though everyone feared him, Zhi Qi was not afraid. Unfortunate people spend their entire lives healing from childhood, and Zhi Qi wanted to heal Jiang Qi with her own efforts. She would make a promise to him on the rooftop of the school, where he brought her to the top: “Jiang Qi, take care. When I reach the legal age, I can marry you.” The boy’s response was a faint smile, his gaze clear and clean like the stars in the sky, filled with rare yearning for the future. Zhi Qi didn’t know that a simple promise saved Jiang Qi’s life, pulling him out of hell. Unfortunately, ‘redemption’ has an expiration date. When the clock strikes twelve for Cinderella, he remains the sick dog with nothing. A crazy boy, and all the sweet names in his obscure life are called ‘Zhi Qi’.

My Thoughts on Mad Dog
"Mad Dog" is a story that stays with you long after you finish reading. It's a raw, emotional journey through the lives of two individuals bound together by a love that's both beautiful and, at times, unsettling. I found myself completely invested in their story, even when it was painful to watch.
First Impressions
From the very beginning, I was drawn into the intense chemistry between the leads. The narrative, which unfolds through a series of present-day scenes interspersed with flashbacks, effectively reveals their shared history and the struggles they've overcome. The author doesn't shy away from difficult themes, creating a world that feels both realistic and emotionally charged.
What Works Well
What truly shines in "Mad Dog" is the character development, particularly that of the male lead, Jiang Qi. He's a deeply flawed character, battling his own internal demons and mental health issues. The female lead, Zhi Qi, acts as his guiding light, offering unwavering support and acceptance. Their devotion to each other is palpable, creating a romance that feels both comforting and all-consuming. I also appreciated the absence of unnecessary drama, like third-party love interests. The story focuses squarely on the central relationship and the characters' personal growth. Despite the heavy themes, the author manages to weave in moments of levity and sweetness, making the story a truly heartwarming experience.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed "Mad Dog," I do have a few minor reservations. Several people raised concerns about the accuracy of the author's depiction of the male lead's mental health condition. While I'm not qualified to comment on the medical accuracy, it's something to be aware of going in. I also felt that the side stories weren't as compelling as the main plot, and I would have preferred to see more focus on the leads' daily lives and future together.

Final Verdict
Despite a few minor drawbacks, "Mad Dog" is a captivating and emotionally resonant story that I highly recommend. It's a tale of healing, perseverance, and the power of love to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. If you're looking for a mature, character-driven romance with depth and emotional complexity, "Mad Dog" is definitely worth a read.
