When the proud, arrogant, and daring Jian Suiying falls in love at first sight with Li Yu, his brother Jian Suilin’s classmate, he actively showed his affections.

Desires and emotions mixed together, making it difficult for them to separate. And what should’ve been a competitive chase between the two became a forbidden secret to tell. And because of Jian Suilin’s ulterior motives, it gradually out of control, and ultimately, the hidden dangers burst out loudly. In the end, all of them will not escape the judgment of fate…

One word to describe this novel: Messy. Everything within the plot is messy, the relationship between the MC and ML esp how they started, the MC's relationship with his family, esp his half-brother, his work, the ML's attempt at redemption and salvage his relationship. I'm mostly able to remember specific parts of the plot in novels, however in the case of this novel, I couldn't remember and arrange anything clearly as the entire novel is too messy.

This novel is amazing. I know it is not good at first but after 25 chapters it is getting interesting. Ikitty03' review was very helpful for me.

MC is really irritating in about first half of story but he'll change, he'll become much more calm.

ML also will fall in love very deeply though it's late cause he has lost MC's love and should try he's best to get it.

If you dislike stories with r*pe and dogblood tropes you won't like this. But if you can read the former you will find it entertaining in a morbidly dogblooded and surprisingly good way.

I finished this novel after reading the manhwa. On what happens in the story:

... more>>
Spoiler

MC is annoying with his s*xual harrassment but doesn't deserve to get r*ped by ML. Though I won't say it didn't feel vindicative when he got a taste of his own medicine, cause I am tr*sh that can read and enjoy toxic dogblooded fiction.

What I like about this is the subversion of the overbearing, sexually harrassing CEO type gets flipped and becomes a bottom.

MC and ML develop a skinship which turns into a proper relationship and then it gets overturned when drama happens and it turns out the brother and ML betrayed him by scamming him of his money. And then more drama happens, with the brother turning out to be obsessed with him and raping him. ML goes insane when MC decides to leave them both, and does dangerous work to get the MC back.

[collapse]

Normally, I wouldn't be entertained by such dogblood drama or r*pe, but the subversion and constant fighting and bickering between the MC and ML drew me in. And then there are a few non romantic scenes which surprisingly gave me feels.

Spoiler

After MC gets scammed, the father makes him give into his brother and he tells his father he will agree to it if all of them including the mistress and his brother move out of their house. Cause his mother had suffered enough losing her husband then her life and he doesn't want to see the mistress living in the room his mother brought him up in any longer.

The second scene is after MC gets r*ped by his brother and leaves the ML and brother, he is alone and can't find anyone to spend time with on new year's eve. The friends with benefits partner he was shacking up with at that time was away and he ends up coming to an empty house and goes to sleep alone. The doorbell then rings and he hears someone call him 'brother' and he's on edge after the r*pe, but it turns out to be his cousin whom had scammed him and he had sent to the army. Except that his cousin has returned a whole new person and wants to apologise and see how he's doing.

[collapse]

Throughout the story, MC does sexually harrass ML at the start and is overbearing, but ironically enough, he never crosses the line unlike the ML or his brother. He is someone who was always relied on by others so he can't show weaknesses. And he took care of the ML plus his own fling when they needed it.

In the long, unabridged version (100+ chapters) you get more context about the MC's thoughts and how he is the way he is. ML turns out to be the one capable of doing crazy things despite his decent looks and cold bearing.

They do change and grow a bit after going through all the drama. The extras after the story show their relationship development afterwards and how they are still understanding each other after what they both went through. It's surprising realistic and good.

Why do I like this? Cause of the subversion and how rare it is to find a top who becomes a bottom
Spoiler

and they actually switch once in the novel like I have NEVER seen that in any bl. I kinda dislike how the manhwa makes the ML taller cause they are pretty much the same build in the story except the ML does boxing so he can overpower the MC. Like, why do you have to make the top bigger or taller even when it is close to switching?

[collapse]
The small, emotional scenes that took me by surprise cause I was expecting 100% cheap dogblood drama all the way. Mind you, it is still very dogblooded and toxic at the start. And eh, I must admit that MC and ML are pretty hot with the smut, especially when MC ends up giving into the ML after all his overbearing ways.

Also, I did not know the author is the same person who wrote Wu Chang Jie. Lol, that explains why I liked this even though I rarely do from just reading the premise. If you want to read this, READ THE 100+ UNABRIDGED VERSION NOT THE 20+ CHP ONE. I made the mistake of reading the shorter one at first and it felt very rushed. I found the longer version with the extras on 256wx. Net. Read it in chinese but I think you can MTL it. <<less

Please read the tags. Don't read any of the author's novels expecting some saint like behavior or even worse want to genuinely be able to like the characters based on their actions because there's no point in that. The novel most definitely will make you uncomfortable so if you don't enjoy that, please refrain from reading.

As for my personal opinion, it's really fascinating psychologically on why the characters act the ways they do, whether it may be their due to their circumstances or upbringing. It really makes me wonder... more>> what I would do in even half of what the characters went through. It's so easy to be self righteous as a bystander but to be the main character, it's not so easy. I mean the plot just makes me feel like I'll have a heart attack. It's just so cruel and just hateful so if you don't normally read these types of novels it's just really hard to get into. Mentally prepare yourself because so many scenes are just so infuriating and make me want to punch the screen. However imo, thats what makes it so good because all the BL stories that romanticize the male existence fail to just face the reality that they're just boys living in a patriarchal society. And there's nothing more cruel than what society has curated for those little boys to become and believe to be right. The author's grasp on the male mentality is quite realistic even through such excruciating unrealistic events, truly a talent.

P.S. Not sure why some reviewers expected to wholeheartedly sympathize with r*pists... ??? <<less

The story isnt similar written to the author novel Professional Body Double and Intoxication. One thing that is similar is twist and turn in the story like blood drama. I had come back and try to read since the novel is finish translating. It hard to keep reading because MC is a idiot in love... but really want to r*pe the P the MC half brother childhood friend... not really. He just want P to fall in love with him. Later find out P love MC half brother for 10... more>> years. The MC half brother is in love with his own brother MC.

Spoiler

In chapter 25 MC half brother find out about something between them. Next thing you know, P beat him up and r*pe MC.

[collapse]

I only read becuase I thought this was a in*est love. Wolvelyn say MC was r*pe by his half brother wrong it was MC second r*pe.

In chapter 40 I feel sorry for the MC was so in love. P should have gotten what he deserve.

I really dont like the P. The way he treat the MC the place they have s*x. Shit, I would have dump a guy like him. He didnt bottle taking care him after s*x, too. He also get anger easy becuase hes jealous. The P has no personailty while MC is manly in love with a jerk. He love the P look and dont care about P perosnailty that suck. Later after chapter 50 P personailty change. Hes manly in love with MC and became clingy. The story change quick and it get better long the way.

Spoiler

In chapter 62 MC caught them in their secret love. In chapter 68 MC found he was double back stab. In chapter 88 MC half brother lock him up and r*pe him.

[collapse]

MC and P the half brother childhood friend have a happy ending togther.

Spoiler

In chapter 139 Theres a love story between a cousin and arm guy who support protect him. It was only two chapter about them that it. Sad ending.

[collapse]

Spoiler

I don't feel sympathy with JSY when LY r*pe him that what he deserve the young man reject him many times but he won't go back of his madness so I really don't feel sorry for him

[collapse]

It take me so many chapter to get with this novel and didn't want to stop until I finish it let me tell you the first chapter I was like WTF I will drop this novel anytime soon but after Chapter 50 I can't stop reading and my heart really hurt for JSY he don't deserve all this sorrow

I like the drama and love dynamic between the lead characters. I'd say at first the ML hates/dislikes MC and the feeling is on opposite ends because MC has been infatuated with his looks. And there's a bit of drama between the siblings (MC and his brother). They don't get along well and ML is standing on the brother's side which is an awkward position to be in.

... more>>
Spoiler

I don't think the ML's behavior is excusable when he forces himself on MC because MC did not consent to be the one on the bottom or at the very least he struggled and gave in reluctantly. They did end up together while the crazy brother (he actually is very possessive and obsessed with the MC) is out of their love dynamic is a good an satisfying ending. I don't think I'll reread it a lot of times. I'll read from time to time.
