a great story, review filled with spoilers... you've been warned!

... more>>
Spoiler

this story has potential, great great great potential... it can be greater than it already is... sigh... unfortunately it will not. the idea of the MC having 3 lives and the whole story switching to different timelines and having multiple reincarnated/rebirth characters-even the addition of ancient, modern and interstellar eras and not to mention the system turned human element. the romance was great, supper fluffy and straightforward...a bit rushed that seemed a tad forceful it was only in like two/three chapters.

tbh idk if it was the fault of the author or translator but the whole story sometimes ends up slightly messy due to shifts in focusing characters. I feel a lot of characters had potential to show and grow their abilities but were cut off. The older brother being reborn changed everything for the MC's third life as otherwise actions of second life would be repeated and they all would've died.

ultimately I feel that the butterfly effect written in this novel is poorly executed and somehow makes no sense as to how it would change things. plot holes are too many and everywhere in TL note it claims that the author wants us to imagine this unmentioned by ourselves but that makes no sense! the plot holes are huge gaps which doesn't make the story seem more interesting but rather more lacking!

this book is so interesting it could have turned into a series because you feel like all major characters can be considered protags... especially with the seemingly shifting p.o.v's/bad narrating... lol

this book just had so much potential that I only feel slight disappointment. dont mistake it for me not liking the book... the story itself can get 5 stars!

i strongly recommend! <<less

like it very much.

i like sickly, pitiable shou character. And pampering gong. Hehe. So I like this respectable novel. Like it to death.

the MC is so pitiful cos he actually life for 3 lifetime (you read it, you know what I mean), then the last life is the one going you read. The 2 life before is so pitiful, I cant hold it.

actually this is ger world ancient times. But, its not the point in this novel so, if you read it for mpreg, I think you can go straight... more>> to exit door.

not so angst cos the angst-or-something is just be fade black.

the translation is wrapped so good to understand. Thank for translated this novel sister. <<less

It’s an interesting world, with good plot and good plot progression, but the best is the relationship between MC and ML!

So sweet, so respectful, so wholesome! I give a like to the author for writing it so well!

MC’s relationship with his brothers and nephews are also the best!

You really should give it a try!

This one is very nice.

Light read, sweet and fluppy. Exactly my cup of tea.

I'm reading it so smoothly and adore this novel. Love love love it. ??? No stress. All fluppy. Some say the end is hurried. I say it's OK and end exactly where it should end. All question answer. All mystery solve. Super light read. Not much drama and perfect blnc. Between sweetness and sad past. ? No stress.

An interesting but messy read. All I could say is that a lot of things were left untold or explained. At first the pacing was quite nice and soothing as it depicts their life in the farm, I really like it. But later on when new things just popped out of nowhere but haven't explained thoroughly, that I started to feel that the reviews were right. And just like that, it ubruptly ended.

I had so many many many questions but sadly the extras doesn't help much for clearing things.

The characters... more>> of the story were lovable, especially the Lin family. MC and ML are nice for each other and had no misunderstandings. As for the antagonists, I am expecting something from them, but sadly they didn't even do anything.

I actually read this after reading some dog blood drama novel so this novel soothes my heart. But sadly the plot is very messy and ambitious but didn't execute very well so I'm giving this a 3. <<less

Cute. Fluffy. Sorta vibes like a BL Assassin Farmer.

Ending does kinda wrap up in a hurry. I wish there was an extra of the original world after the dad’s goal was realized... complete with an AR ML ☺️

Slice of life-ish with MC dealing with some ptsd after endtimes while loving up his honey.

None of the various elements are too pronounced (like making wine or political intrigue). All that stuff is background/foundation for the fluff basically. Which means subplots are vaguely wrapped up with a hand wave off screen most of... more>> the time.

Probably 4* but I’ll go 5 because there’s always 1* bl hating mouth breathers. <<less

I like the novel, it was rebirth, reborn, amnesia, and transmigrated! The story itself is not too heavy so if u wanna a heavy background story but light read, this is the novel you must read. Kind of reminds me of https://www. Novelupdates. Com/series/spring-trees-and-sunset-clouds/ Spring Trees and Sunset Clouds

I only give it four stars is because I feels that toward the end of the story, I kind of rush to ended it. The "boss" is easily defeated and just randomly mention. But still it still a good novel.

I liked it! The plot twists kind of reminded me of the ones in Spring Trees and Sunset Clouds. I mean the actual content of the plot twists is totally different, but they have the same vibes: both depicting people living out their lives, seemingly idle and carefree, but looking deeper, there is hidden turbulence and unease. When reading, I would say to make sure to fully read the places where they explain what's going on in the plot. There are some slice-of-life vibes so you might be tempted to... more>> skim, but trust me it's worth reading through, because it will make the plot twists more interesting and less confusing. <<less

Overall: 3.5 of 5

What I like about this novel is how devoted and dotting the ML is to the MC. ML is literally best boy. Envious hubby material. I enjoy reading about their rural life.

What I don't care too much about is the transmigration part. I appreciate the authors attempt at trying to explain her transmigration, parallel universe, plus sci-fi elements of the story organic, but imho, it still feel like a convoluted mess. ... more>>
Spoiler

The rebirth part of dage isn't even touched upon. Don't even mention the thing with the jade dragon thing that says if ML follows cultivation path then the ML and MC will go separate path.

[collapse]
I'll just take the simple explanation that he died in his previous life and transmigrated into a parallel universe and forgo everything else in that mess.

Lastly, I feel like the author lost interested towards the end, so the ending feels rush like I'm just reading summary points. It have good potential to be a great story, but... yea. <<less

I forced myself to keep reading even as the plot derailed more and more. The author seemed to have just pulled irrelevant ideas out of nowhere every chapter, and took plot twists to the extreme but skimmed over the important parts of the plot.
Spoiler

Like wtf happened with the MC's awesome wine making skills? His gourmet shop? His third sister's husband's friend who took a like to him? And all the important details like how tf did the prime minister and his daughter get caught? It was just thrown in during the wedding scene like oh the Emperor caught them? Wtf b*tch HOW???

[collapse]

also the three star rating is a lie, my finger slipped and I can't edit it. 100% deserves less than 1 Star

kudos to the translator tho, they did an awesome job, shame that the plot was just bleh

3 stars

Really appreciate and enjoyed the quality translation. However, the story itself was a bit bland. Nothing overly interesting. The romance didn't have a spark. ML seemed to have a powerful background and I thought that could spark something (it was probably the most interesting thing in the novel and happened only in the latter half so the first half could be seen as a drag).

I actually thought that the most interesting couple was ... more>>
Spoiler

the emperor and his lover. Would have loved to see their love story more. I had some hopes for MC's brother's love story with ML's younger brother. But that side CP fell a bit flat too. I even felt that MC's brother himself didn't really know how he ended up with his lover. The spark wasn't strong. The strongest spark was the emperor and his lover.

[collapse]

So overall, a good read for the quality translation especially if one can get past the first half to the more interesting second half. <<less

It was a nice story.

Its main genre would definitely be slice of life. It was satisfying to read and I felt happy when the MC finaly achieved the life he desired, after all the abuse he had gone through.

There's a big big family motive, which I personally didn't like at first, but they all grew on me with time and the story wouldn't be the same without them.

The story took a little bit of a turn towards the end and the sole end was somewhat rushed in my opinion, a... more>> chapter or two as epilogue would've been great. There were some things left unclear to me, and some scenes felt like omitted or shortened, but I can't complain much considering that I am content with the novel in general. <<less

One of those novels that you hate and also like (not love though) . The novel feels like how you cram your whole semester right before the exam night. Too many elements mentioned zombie, futuristic, space travel, system, transmigration, rebirth, golden fingers, spiritual space. Bleh...

But the interaction amoung the family members and the romance fluff was actually good which is what I liked about this story.

Translator did excellent work !!

This story was really good in my opinion. Zombie apocalypse, transmigration, internal space, etc. Those are usually things I like on a novel, if used and done right. I feel this author did that. The only thing I disliked was:

Spoiler

The cultivation aspect came out of nowhere. Green dragon. Like, what?!!!

[collapse]

The story could have went without that and been perfectly fine. I don't understand why some people said the characters switched personalities. Everything was in line for me. This a nice story to read. I could have lived without some aspects but it wasn't as bad as others made it out to be.

To be honest, I am touched by this novel.

The mystery in the life of Lin Mo hooked me to read more and more. Since his life is so tragic, as a reader, I really want to see on how he l would achieve a 'retirement life.'

There were a lot of unexpected elements in the story as it goes on like ... more>>
Spoiler

time traveled eldest brother, transmigrated villainness and a general who regained his past life's memories

[collapse]
.

Besides the sad part, there were also some cute moments like interactions with his little brother, niece and nephew. I am glad that there is no useless misunderstanding or exaggerated drama between MC and everyone else. It is so relaxing to read and appreciate on how the ML tries to understand and be patient with Lin Mo despite having some secrets.

Lastly, it is important to emphasize that Cheng Yan is his redemption.

Without him, his life would be a repeated tragedy.

Why don't you try reading it first before you decide whether to continue it or not...? Because this is soooo good. <<less

It was so good, unit it wasn't...

There is a mix of genres and.... What's the best way to say this...? There is quite a bit going on...

... more>>
Spoiler

You have transmigration— Excuse me, you have triple transmigration, then a futuristic world, zombies, a system (that's useless). Then there is wormhole time traveling, mixed martial arts, and mpreg (but it's not important to the story) What did I miss? Psychological stuff, ect.

[collapse]

Basically it was a lot. His twin niece and nephew were cute though... Until they got older, and we had to see their story. Partly anyway.

Simply put— The author fleshed out characters that didn't need to be expounded on, and brought in a lot of characters, that had their story quickly told, and that was it. Their story and life was told within a few chapters, and then not discussed anymore.

It wasn't a horrible story. It just felt like a lot was thrown in (last mintue) then it was rushed, so it could be quickly ended. This is a quick read. <<less

A very nice novel. It was interesting, well translated. Everything was doing fine except the fact that the end felt like it was left hanging. The part of the conviction of those people who are the villains in the story was quite rushed for me. I was shocked to read that part when they are already in jail without any majot ruckus occurring. Anyways, it was a good read.

well after completing the whole story I can say that it was fine. It was such great story in the beginning but after chapter 40; it turned to a jumble of thought and sentences more than a story. The author needed to work more on the plot line and give it a sturdier structure than it had.
