ain't to way your novel has 5.5M views but only 500 reviews. where was it even published ? if the novel was read by over 5M people it should've been a cultural fenomenon. a Fandom should've happened and it would've created movement into the creative space. people would be sharing it amongst themselves. unless those 5M are an addition of overall views on all your chapters it would make no sense it 5M people actually read your story for it to only have made such little impact.
Rating : 4.7 (513 reviews)

if barely have enough money to get by, how is it that you're "gaining pounds"? if you have enough money to stuff your mouth the least you could've done was save it up or put it to better use.
As I gained weight and found myself putting on more pounds with each passing day, it became increasingly harder for me to continue going to part-time jobs as I would always run out of breath after standing for over 10 minutes.

didn't you say that the money your parents left you was enough to survive ? if you're trying to make us pity you at least keep your sob story consistent !
I could barely feed myself through part-time jobs. How could I possibly study in another city where the rent was levels beyond my contemptibly small budget?

this doesn't make any sense. if you become an orphan and have no family to take care for you, no aunts or anything, then you should've been under the government's care. you should've gone to an orphanage and the money you inherited from your family would've been frozen in a bank account until you were of age to use it. taking into account the fact that you said you lived the remaining 4 years of school by yourself you should've had enough to live through your Bachelor and a gap year or the first year of your master's (taking into account you pass every year on the first try which is believable as you said that when you studied you were valedictorian). if you found a job and worked while you studied during those 4 years you'd have enough to finish the second year of your master's, aka finish university. you'd be on the work market with 6 years of experience (albeit probably in a convenience store job) and you'd have on your resumé the fact that you were in the top 1%. as long as you don't make a dumb choice for major and master's, employers would probably be contacting you during your last year of master's. what you're saying is utterly senseless. if not social security should've still given you a financial aid during those trying years.
At that point, having exhausted all my family's savings, I was dirt poor.

you must be idiotic to believe that those two don't actually put in effort to be the best of the best. if Ronaldo or Messi don't train, they will inevitably worsen their football. they have talent yes, but they still work hard to be able to maintain their positions. did you really believe that genetics is all there is ? someone said "oh he's got good legs let's put him on the team even though he has never run in his life" ? no !! they had to work hard to have those qualities shine. if not they rot and serve no purpose. a child isn't born knowing how to breathe and walk, just because you're more talented doesn't mean you don't have to learn and practice till perfection.
Look at football, for example. Many people train just as hard as Messi or Ronaldo, but in the end, they don't even come close to their level.

talent without work is useless. if you're smarter than others but don't study you won't remember anything. you're smarter so it takes you less effort to memorize than dumber people, however you still need to put in effort, whether big or small.
The key ingredient to success is 'talent'.

that quote is only ever applicable if it regards something that is in your control, something that can be improved or not, something in which your input changes the state of that thing. this would be most commonly used and proven true by skills
How does 'efforts never betray you' apply here?

if we are talking purely on probability it is impossible to win the lottery as the probability in null, not zero, but a zero followed by so many other zeros that's it is regarded as null.
I mean, how much effort does it take for someone to win a lottery?

yes that may be true however, the human body is made in a way that if not fed properly it will eat itself to survive, therefor, if he didn't eat anything other than one slice of bread in a month as a malnourished child (that is to say that he has no extra fat to burn before the body start eating away at muscles and important bodily functions) he should not be out and about without any kind of physical impediment
Ji Dong's body no longer allowed him to persist. He hadn't had a proper meal for a month now, and his body was already weak. The concentration from mixing the drink earlier had nearly exhausted his energy. Now, being baked by the scorching heat in front of him, he blacked out and collapsed. His last sensation was that his body seemed to have been caught by someone, stopping him from hitting the hard ground.

If he hasn’t had a meal in a month, how is he alive? At most an adult male is able to survive a month without food, this however comes with major setbacks. They don’t just walk out scotfree. Ain’t no way bro survived without eating a month if he’s a MALNOURISHED CHILD.

Nah I think it’s Moltres
Blinding red light burst from Elder Yang, seemingly emanating from him. Under his control, the red light was tethered within a radius of one meter around his body. Yet within an area with a diameter of three meters, the air rippled and distorted due to the light's intensity. An enormous fiery red phantom appeared behind Elder Yang, resembling a huge bird. The flaming red wings were spread wide, as if ready to take flight. A golden glow enveloped Elder Yang, making him appear like a god descending upon earth. The invisible dignity was the source of the pressure around him.

have you reported it in "correction"?
As Ji Dong, dressed as a beggar, stood outside the Flame Love Bar, he could only observe—he could neither taste nor touch. He relied on his keen sense of smell, acute hearing, sharp eyesight, and his past experience as the Liquor God. He observed the bartenders mixing drinks, the patrons' reactions after drinking different concoctions, their physical changes, and their comments. After scrutinizing all these details over a month, he managed to understand the taste of most of the drinks served at the bar and even compared them to the beverages from his previous world.

The Li Jiedong of the previous life never strayed from wine in his thirty-two years of life, and was obsessed with it. When he was invited to appreciate a newly unearthed millennium old wine from his country, he finally could not resist the urge within his heart and had a bite of the amber wine turned into paste, and hence he fell into a deep sleep.

imagine being a 'liquor god' and dying of food poisoning. if you know to wash your hands before mixing a cocktail how tf do you forget that a whine, old as a millenia might just be poison with the amount of bacteria it has? like, did it not ever cross your mind that perhaps it wasnt sealed properly and as a consequence it might, just might, kill you?

Houses also have metal and or wood structures from time to time. The most likely scenario thought is that he left only the support bricks and that everything else was taken. If not it may be a house without roof? Just cement and or bricks. Like a starter base in Minecraft made of cobblestone.
Once the sky started becoming brighter, Lin Fan would then stopped and quietly left. Tonight’s speed was not bad, he had dismantled four walls. His blacksmith profession had already reached level nine, and the distance to leveling up again was quite short.

your downfall was self-made. not to mention, didn't you say that your first novel was a success ? if your book was really that good and people were ACTUALLY reading it then there should've been no reason for you to touch another pen in your life. you should've been set for life. what ? did you gamble your fortune away ? you struck gold and ruined yourself through imbecile decisions ? the more you say the more you contradict yourself.
And though I did exactly as my readers asked, apart from the first novel, I never found my books making it in the rankings.
