    All the gongzis, wangs are distracting from the story. It reads more like a fetish piece than a story. It's no surprise Japanese and Korean novels have surpassed Chinese novels.
    I hadn't read a new Chinese novel in years and I couldn't help but be disappointed.
    It's a chore to read...

    Also the other suffixes as stated below. It breaks immersion. Only works if you are into fetish porn or eroge.
    It is even more out of place in a novel set in Europe

    I'm just here for the nuffies and to add a post to this thread, since it seems to be not as popular as the other ones. :blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn::blobpopcorn_cool::blobpopcorn_cool::blobpopcorn_cool::blobpopcorn_cool:

    I see since we are all on the same line of thought, I decided to copy-pasta this exact post on all threads, that start with no wonder.
