found this novel from wattpad recommendation list then I found Mobo Reader, app like Webnovel, place to read a bunch of novel with coins. For first timer I got free unlimited reading for a day, so I ditch my work and binge reading this novel. I got addicted reading this novel and since I saw many unknown titles in Mobo Reader, unconsciously I press subscribe for a month that cost me $18. I hope there's a lot novel that worth reading here. I just skimmed the synopsis of top novel it look decent but when I open first chapter all the name become western while the family name still in Chinese e.g Edward Fu... That's really make me down, I hope I can put up with it (In the end, I can only read 3-4 novel before giving up).
