I love this book. As time goes on, deep love will changes. Time will changes everything. They can spend the hardest time together but can’t live a wealthy life together. If a person always accompany you, you may take him for granted. When you lose him, you come to realize he plays such an important role in your life.

After reading this novel, I cry my eyes out. It is not only telling a love story about two men but a love condition of all the people. Someone like Jiang Wenxun dislike the normal life and pursue an exciting life, hurting the one who loves him. He must regret what he has done for the rest of his life.

This is my first time leaving a review. Be aware as this review will contain a lot of spoilers

This novel teaches you a lot about the way of life a lot about love and long time relationship. It was just absolutely heart renching to see the MC go through all the pain everytime. Being both physically and mentally exasted till he finally decided the leave the ML. I am so happy that he wasn't with the ML when he died (sososososo happy!)

Doctor Ai both as a person and a... more>> doctor is great and it also hurt to see him fall in love with someone who first of all doesn't have a long time live and a place in his heart for him. But the think that I didn't like in their relationship was how he still ended up being intimitate with the MC in the end. It was very obviously a way of paying back for all that MC has received from him. But it kinda ruined the pure relationship bethween them because doctor Ai still excepted it in the end (though its only a personal opinion). Its almost like till his last breath the MC did't want to burden anyone.

Anyway I also felt very bad for is ML's lover. Even though what he did was indeed not very nice I still think he suffered too much.I

don't really have any strength left to talk about ML so let's end this here. <<less

I was crying. I cried so hard at every chapter that it took me a week to finish reading this story. My heart is broken. My soul hurts so much. I just thought until the last moment that the MC would recover, and he would be happy, because he deserves every minute of f*ng happiness. I was so naive. And yes, I didn't feel sorry for the lousy gong, but I cried even over its chapters too. I'm exhausted. Thank you for translating this story!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is the most emotional, heartrending, tearjerking Sorry I have read!!!!

I found about it from the adapted Manga for this one and I tell you that I was addicted to it and have read it 4-5 times and every single time I come out with tears in my eyes. It leaves me amazed how many emotions I explore every single time. I really don't know why I keep on torturing myself with this tragedy, perhaps it because I want to go back and see that he had a more,... more>> happier ending. Even Extra in another life with my MC and Doc would be fine. Buuuutttt it's only a piping dream!!!!

The ending is filled with the most beautiful bittersweet emotions you can understand. Although this story leaves me in shambles with pain, it leaves me with a sense that makes me feel the beauty of Life, Human emotions, that are indescribable in just mere words.

I recommend and hope that whoever reads this novel will also feel these emotions. While it is a tragedy, but there is a sense of painful liberation here, which describes more than what my spoken or written word ever would. <<less

I made my review on the translation website so I'm only giving my thoughts about the novel. The story is pretty good. So mostly gonna talk about the characters but it's going to contain spoilers so please don't Klick it. I'll make a quick brief after the spoiler tag.

... more>>
Spoiler

For what I think for the characters is that both MC and ML is at fault. Here's why. MC is quite known to be very decisive however he is very soft hearted. Due to his love he is very dedicated to his one and only but here's the thing. ML has been cheating and MC knows it. But MC can't bring it to himself to point it out. It is probably due to the ML personality that he can't bring himself to admit fault. But due to this MC chose to suffer many years until he became increadably sick that he realized how s*upid it is. He realize it too late at this point. ML well he is pretty selfish. So selfish that everything he did wrong to MC got karma really bad. It is actually implied that he got pretty deep in the dark side of business and that probably contributed to his ego. Although he got his retribution I don't feel the satisfaction for what he is become because it is depressing.

[collapse]

So basically MC had enough of ML even though it is overdue. ML himself for his over possessiveness and entitlement over MC was what pushed MC to finally break off. Unfortunately for both of them they don't get their happy ending.

Their love is that at one point you fell for someone but at any moment that love becomes distorted and taken for granted. Even if you love someone you could not break free however you can choose to leave them. For some though they choose to love but they lost their heart for them forever becoming entrapped.

It's that kind of story. It's written pretty well done. Though it is recommended to read something lighthearted preferably comedic to lighten up your mood. <<less

This novel is a must read. Beautiful written. Characters are explained so beautifully. From the 1st chapter onwards till the end its such a painful experience. I cried my eyes out. But even though its a tragedy I would recommend this novel to everyone. It will definitely touch your heart and soul. U will love MC, he was such kind and humble person who deserved the whole world but got the hell in return for his love. U all should try to read it even though u might start crying... more>> from the very first chapter. <<less

This is a sad story. Some may say that it is just heartbreaking but I think the ending is bittersweet and the author tied it up nicely. Realistically speaking, not everything can go well in life and sometimes it may be too late to remedy the wrong choices we make. So, I think that the author made the right choice in not forcing a HE. However, characters like the 2nd ML did seemed a little shallow with little development. It’s as if they existed for the sole purpose of the... more>> plot only. In general though, it is a good novel if you like sad stories.

Summary: very sad + tragedy + side characters that exist for the plot <<less

I read this when it was a manhua and the whole story and plot has stayed with me. As someone who LOVES plots where the MC turns his life around and finds someone better, I honestly cannot hate the plot in this novel despite my preferences. I have read so many novels now where everything from the plot to the characters seem identical besides names, location, and a few other things. But this plot refreshed me. It made me cry like a baby, get insanely pissed at the ml, and... more>> love the second ml. This novel was tragically realistic and will always hold a spot in my heart, though every time I read it, it hurts my soul.

Well, I thought the story will be like a redemption of the ML. But turned out this story is far from my expectation.
Honestly, I don't really like the second lead part (the doctor). I don't know how to describe but it looks like he just being forced to involved in their love story?

Okay, maybe he indeed really fall in love with the MC.
But... hmm. I think this kind of plot is not my cup of tea.

I love angst. Like I will read every story with angst tag on it.
But this one, I don't get the feels. I did cry in the earliest chapter. But when near the ending, I lost it feels. I want to stop reading, but I also curious.

And yes, I know I will get disappointed.

Well. That's all.

I started reading this novel around 2 AM and binged reading this until 4AM. My emotions while reading this book all involved a form of heartache and when I did finish it, I was in a pool of tears. The characters are all fleshed out and the backstory behind Zhishu and Wenxu just adds more to the story. As I'm reading this, it's the small things that each character does that just makes this story more realistic. The changes each character go through is tear-jerking and even I felt bad... more>> for Wenxu at the end (even though he deserved the guilt). <<less

This is heartbreaking story. I hope the writer will write another one with a HE. Like transmigration or reborn. I cry so much for the MC here and I feel sorry for Jiang.

Recommend if you love angst, have 2nd male lead syndrom, and can handle the pain of seeing your fave die

... more>>
Spoiler

It is purely abuse reader kind of novel, the questionable love that He Zhishu had for Scum Jiang is kind of painful to look at, I don't think Zhishiu still LOVE scum jiang since the first chapter, he just addicted to the past and can't move on for the better then BAMM cancer happened so it's time to let go to endure the pain of body after years of endure the pain in the heart?

The funny part is that Zhishu claimed that he himself is so sensitive that can not stand the pain but look at how his body become so super weak but he still can endure the pain of having non-consent s*x with scum?

The 2nd male lead is even funnier, why the frick he fall in love with the patient if MC is a woman then he will definitely have legally married status but Ziyu despite everything daring to confess and kiss Zhishu, just, why are you like this, where is the moral code you make doctor look bad

I was crying when reading to around 20 chapter then I realized why did I have to feel sad for those who didn't even love themselves then I just binged read to see how far the self-pity party gonna end ?

I love him so bad even though he's the scum and treat me like a dead fish

I love you so bad that I r*pe you and slap you so hard

I love you even when you're in relationship and dying when we first met

[collapse]

Translators did a wonderful work if only the name didn't translate in name-then-family-name style since I feel more comfortable reading He Zhishu than Zhishu He. <<less

I really love this book, though it makes me feel sad.
Spoiler

I feel sorry for Zhishu He. He loves Wenxu Jiang so much. I really want to ask him: why don't you tell him? You are going to leave the world. If you tell him, Wenxu Jiang would accompany you in the rest of your life, at least you have happy memories.

[collapse]
Why don't you do that? I'm looking forward to see what happens next.

So far, this book is full of sadness. Most of online novels are far away from real life, but this book is very real. In the reality, spoony girl and unfaithful boy is everywhere. Love is good or bad. Different people have different fate, but why? No one can tell the reasons behind it. Sometimes, we only can accept fact. Anyway, this is an awesome book. It makes me think a lot.

Normally I would rate such stories low but the writing was quite poignant.

Jiang Wexu was an irredeemable scum. But He Zhixu allowed himself to be treated like that. He gave up his family, education, business. He was cheated on, beaten and r*ped. It took seeing the mistress to leave?

If you choose to leave, there is always a better future, better people, possibly more opportunities. That's my take away.

In the mood to abuse my own scarred soul, so I read this for the second time. Yes, I did. 🤟 I don't regard the ML as main character at all. Sorry, but it's not call love if you dare to chat, not only one persons but MANY both girls and boys and it's going on FOR YEARS! His reasons are all bullsh*t. His regret means nothing. For me, this story is more like a diary of a dying MC, who basically given up on all things, keep going until his... more>> last day. That's it. Pure abuse. <<less

Ziyu (2nd male lead) deserve so much better. I know my second male lead syndrome is acting up, BUT! He really deserve much more than this.

He is handsome, gentle, caring, a doctor, have a good family background, he's basically perfect. Even Zhishu admitted that he didn't deserve Ziyu.

Fortunately, Ziyu moved on but he can't fall in love the second time because he was hurt too deeply. In his next life, I only wish him to be well and happy.

For the leads, Zhishu and Wenxu. I just want them to be... more>> separated. They made the choice, and their choices leads them where they are today. (I just want them not to involve Ziyu.)

Spoiler

Wenxu is really a scum. Not only he r*ped Zhishu but also cheated on him for years, with different people even.

Dasurve. (Means he deserve what he feels now, the pain, the suffering...)

[collapse]

Zhishu, [sigh] feels complicated about this one. On one hand, I hate iron for not becoming steel. While on the other, I wish Ziyu isn't his doctor.

Spoiler

Zhishu disappointed many people, including me.

The ironic thing is, Wenxu is the only person he didn't disappoint.

Zhishu's so brilliant but he gave that up. I don't know if he's in his right mind at that time but if he's my friend, I already slap him to wake him up.

I quite agree on Secretary Song's view.

"I was just astounded. A man had to wait for another man to come home? What was this? A man wasn't supposed to be wasted like this! How could Zhishu He be happy anyway? He was so confident when he killed in those bidding speeches, when he talked businesses in a suit. Keeping him at home would only rot this man!"

Even if Zhishu is gay, he's still a man. He's making him useless.

[collapse]

There's also another pitiful person here, Zui Sen.

Spoiler

He's Wenxu's mistress (Is that the right term??) for two years and the most recent one.

He loved Wenxu to the point that when he knew Wenxu is in love with someone else he still continued being the side chick. He even begged Wenxu not to throw him away, even at the cost of being a mistress.

Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly.

[collapse]

The novel wasn't exactly that bad, nor was it that good. Though I would say the angst was pretty much on point. There's plotholes I can ignore (the plothole was explained later but doesn't really explained it well), but the angst of the novel would really go straight to your heart. At the latter half tho, I didn't cry as much. But kudos for making me cry.

I actually noticed this because of the mahua adaptation titled, The 10 Years I Loved You The Most. If you want to read it, just search the title on Chrome.

I'm quite hesitant to read the manhua because many people (in TikTok mostly) labeled it as a manhua that really gives you emotional damage. So, when I saw that it has a novel, I dived in. And, it wasn't so bad. I feel I can take it (the manhua version).

If you want to cry, recommended.

P.S. Don't mind me randomly bringing Ziyu up. My illness is just acting up. <<less

I read this on manhua with the title 10years I love you the most. And honestly, this is the first bl I dare to read and gives me a trauma. Yes, I even skip the popular manhwa with the title killing stalking as I got spoiled on the ending and knows that it is a BE. I hate bad ending stories coz it makes me depressed and takes time to move on. And as sad as the story has a BE this novel definitely have a very good plot that... more>> you won’t forget and the character setting is solid. It’s painful yet despite that pain I can see how wonderful this is. Kudos to the translator for picking this up and to the author for making something that will leave a deep impression which will imprint in your mind and soul. <<less
