Omg, the ending, whyyyyyyyyyy? > < This is so good Idk if I write the "words" I have in mind will it make you happy or angry... I love this so much and I feel like I know who you are, one of those who thankfully still write for Chentao ♥ ♥ ♥ I kind of prefer bottom Chen but I know this will be bottom Tao and it never fail to impress me how different Tao as a person or prince in this story and when he's just Zitao with Jongdae.

I feel like reading a movie, it's so detailed and the plot is really good like it's expected from a good writer and I just love love love it! Love how the Kims are related here as Jin with how similar each of them and all other characters, I really love jealous Jongdae and how lovely Zitao is... I really hate politics but when it comes to drama or story and involves exo, it's just so much fun and exciting, especially with romance.

Hopefully I still can get more Chentao from you in the future, idk if you are one of them who had write for Chentao or this is your first time, but I hope this word is not a burden. Thank you so much for making this story, because I really really love it and I love you too! ^^ ❤ ❤ ❤

I've been found out!! I'm afraid I'm very very predictable but I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway despite knowing that it was me~ whenever I encounter a new au to try out, they're defs the first pair I think of to use. they just have such an interesting dynamic that it's hard to ignore what kind of push-pull shenanigans they'd get up to in different situations~ and gosh I'm not mad at all about your comment - it's too kind!! I'm sorry I never write bottom!jongdae, but maybe one day in the future, who knows. it's a good idea.

and gosh!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the plot!! it took a ridiculous time and yelling at my poor friend/beta to figure out and I was praying that people would get interested in how it was playing out, especially with all the romance happening on the side. it's so hard to balance that out. y'know.

anyway!! I hope I get more ideas for chentao in the future from people's prompts and stuff!! especially since I get super kind feedback like this!! thanks so much bub <3
