From CEO to Concubine

Hi everyone! This is Queeniecat, the author of 'From CEO to Concubine'. I told myself I'll only write this shameless self-review after completing 9 days of mass releases for the WPC. So I'm here now! It would have been impossible to accomplish this without all of the support from you, dear readers, so thank you so much for the motivation. I really would have given up on the daily multiple chapters by now if it weren't for the collections, power stones, comments, and reviews! They were really the strongest motivation and I appreciate each and every single one of them. In terms of the story, I would like to reassure everyone that the main plot line has already been planned out. This novel will span 6 distinct volumes, each dictating a progression of our MC Yan Zheyun's OPness! I hope that my writing will be able to portray this journey in an exciting manner. ^^ As for Volume 1, if my detailed plot outlines aren't wrong, there should be 12 chapters more to go. This means that a big climax in the story is coming soon (the clean kind, non-R18 kind unfortunately LOL). Please bear with the slow burn, I promise that the future story will be filled with dramatic, shocking plot developments as well as an epic romance of a lifetime between our MC/ML. <3 Once again, thanks for the support!

I had to point this out first. The writing of this novel is EXCELLENT. Goodness, this is definitely one of the better stories (BL stories at that) that I’ve read on this app. The character description, narration, and dialogue are so creative and cleverly chosen; you can see the author’s intelligence through their words. The world building is perfect (I’m not exaggerating). I’m able to easily tell where everything and everyone is at all times. On top of that, this is an extremely captavating story. (I mean, who doesn’t want to read about a man once at the top, then reduced to the bottom???)(no pun intended🤣) That’s not all, Yan Zheyun is such an admirable character. The author did an amazing job creating him. He’s so clever and quick witted (….and let’s not forget, extremely handsome 😮‍💨✨) I was too afraid to even put the story down. Please please READ!! I definitely recommend this to anyone. As someone who loves historical romances, I will tell any readers like myself, that this story does not disappoint. I haven’t even gotten to the part where the ML is introduced and yet I’m already so excited!! Now, onto reading!! I’m so excited to see how Yan Zheyun will continue on in Yan Yun’s world. (hehe, I hope that’s not a spoiler 😅) I’m even more excited to see the male lead 🤩✨. Lovely job author 🥰🥰

The way you write makes it feel so that I am fully immersed in the novel, keep up the awesome work! Looking forward to see more of your new chapters!!! Yes, we love it when a CEO gets bamboozled.

This book raises the standard for all transmigration novels and the best part of it is the MC. He is the best and the most realistic protagonist I have ever read. The story explains real world scenarios instead of the oh-everything-is-so-easy-i-know-the-novel tropes. I can't wait for the future updates of this masterpiece. Thanks for the daily updates, Author🤗.

What I like most of this novel is how well-thought out it is. What I noticed, while some novels tend to focus fully on the transmigrated life of the MC this novel spends some time to give details of the MCs past life in the way that it adds colour to the MCs character and not just glossed over. Other details can also be seen at various points of the story like some side characters' backstory and design without making it too overwhelming or shoving it into the readers' throat. The romantic development is very much realistic and logical like the pace the progress and how it starts all are very much convincing. Language: I like the effort author puts into the archaic language, Chinese poems and terms though there are some terms that I find quite awkward. While there are some minor grammar mistakes here and there sometimes it doesn't really impede reading experience much. All in all, it's one of the gems in this platform that I very much recommend. There's romance, humor some drama with a dash of angst and a cup of b*tchslaps, what more do you ask for?

I absolutely like the main character, he is CEO but suddenly enters to foreign world maybe he felt so strange, confused or scared. This story similar with my another story genre Korean drama : The concubine from 21st century. I always like chinese novel, korean novel, dynasty stories, etc. Beside that, the plot is very interesting, also neatly writing style, the words are easy to understand. All over is good, Nice work Author😃👍

This reads like a professionally published novel 🥰 I’m fairly new to WN, but I’ve taken a few looks around and read the first 40 chapters of enough books to know that this is one of the most well written stories in WN. Besides the level of technical writing, the plot is sensical; intricate; holds enough back to keep you guessing, but reveals enough to make the progression satisfying; and feels like it is actually challenging for the character to overcome. I feel a real sense of danger and tension in the air, not just for the main character, but the side couples, too. The characterization can be described by those adjectives above 😂 and also the characters feel well rounded and intimate, so Reader feels connected to and invested in Yan Zheyun’s struggles, as well as those of his friends and a certain ML 😏😍 (<—that’s all I say about him *coughs* *blushes* *grins* *puts two thumbs up*) The world is deep and not there just to serve the MC; it’s beautifully rendered for us to sink into. No one is OP, so everyone has to play the game and maneuver with words and actions. I could wax poetical about it, but I would rather go read atm 😁 (can you blame me?). I’ll just share that I keep thinking of this story, no matter how many others I read while waiting for chapter releases, so I‘m going to have to reread this from the start soon (you’ll see my commentary along the way 😉) and continue to give all my golden tickets to this book. It really deserves it! Go read it! You’ll be like that one GIF that you always see when you open up the GIF tab:

I can't express enough how highly I praise this work. The story is engaging, the plot grips me and I can barely put it down and stop reading. I feel genuinely concerned for the main character and his happiness. I just want to keep reading! Very hopeful for more of this story.

One of my favorite works on web novel. The writing is compelling and the character's are very lifelike each with their own motivations. Well researched with attention to even the smallest detail.

This story is bomb and I don't usually like transmigration plots. I love that you update constantlyand stay consistent. But really, what's the Emperor's deal? If they stuck to this being a BL, I would support a live action of this but we all know how that goes. [img=update][img=coins][img=fp][img=recommend]

I'm not really a fan of BL, to be honest, I just read BL or GL when I have to do a review swap. But... reading it objectively, I can say that everything in this story is amazing! The author really has potential, and I do hope that your story will gather more audience one day. Good luck!

A good start with great image created. The plot grows so well throughout the chapters while the picture becomes clearer through those words written. Overall a great read

I love this novel soooo much. BUT PLEASEE I WISH THE AUTHOR WOULD JUST FINISH THIS NOVEL INSTEAD OF HANGING IT AROUND 😭😭

Only four chapters in, and I am floored. Phenomenal, emotional writing. Not for the faint of heart. The subject matter is heavy, but the author approaches it with empathy, care, and finesse. I'm looking forward to the light in our MC's current darkness. Our boy is badly in need of a reliable companion and ally. 😔
