One of the best couple. Realistic, theres no cinderella or saving, just pure if you like me and I like you, lets work hard to know each other.

MC and ML are both mature. I learned a lot from their opinions especially family and dating.

There should be more light novel like this.

I thought this is going to be a boring story but I was wrong! I'm glad I sticked around til the end of story. This is a realistic story, heartwarming and very beautiful in its own way.

Very good, though plot pace is slow. Pick it up if you're in mood for reading about normal people.

First of all, the translator's work is amazing. Not only the language is nice and clear, they even provide the notes at the beginning of every chapter listing characters' names and who is who - that is very helpful since Chinese names and addresses can be very confusing to an outsider like me. I think it was the first CN novel which I could read that easily

As for the plot itself -... more>> it seems to be very calm. Mainly, transmigrated FL approaches her life in a very sensible and adult manner. The only misunderstanding with ML so far has been successfully resolved. And for once ML matches to his description: he's nice, handsome, CEO-ish but not much of a romantic hero. Not much of that typical shallow ML stuff.

So, since all main characters are smart, sensible and have a normal personality, it somehow turned out to be a little bit boring. On the other hand, the plot develops slowly - it's been 20 chapters and FL is yet to understand that she's in a novel world (and we still hasn't seen even a glimpse of the original FL of this novel). I hope the tension will begin building up at some point, 'coz, ya know, we need some drama ;) #reader #popcorn

Adding it to my reading list! <<less

I'm giving this 4stars bcos I didn't finish the book yet, but it has already hooked me so much. Ohmyyyyyyyyy (〃ω〃) prepare to eat a mouthful of dog food (≧∀≦●)/

This novel is so cute! MC and ML characters are so realistic, at first I thought ML will be just like the typical overbearing and cold CEO!! But it's not!! Trust me! I mean he is cold towards other people but not like he going to mute all the time and let his "aura" scares or "answer" the people. Both of... more>> them was very mature, they didn't fall inlove at first sight. And especially when they first meet at the blind date and MC accidentally stumbled upon the ML, when she ignore him the ML didn't immediately feel like she is interesting like they typical ML would do.

Trust me! This is worth reading! I mtl this bcs I can't afford to wait for the new update ?

Hoping the later plot won't disappoint me! Orz(><;;)

I'll comeback to review when I'm finished d (o^v^o) b

edit: I forgot to add star ╥﹏╥ <<less

Initially I liked it, especially the characterization of both characters but I started to dislike GYC more and more as their relationship developed.... more>>
Spoiler

It felt like he turned into the stereotypical uncontrolled forceful ML and she became the submissive one when the whole reason that she liked him and they matched was because he was so mature, etc. For example, when he kept pressuring her for s*x without being careful at all, leading to her getting pregnant before she wanted. It seems like all the promises he made to her and her father (not getting in the way of her schooling, waiting, etc.) were thrown out the window once he got her.

Not everything that is written realistically is fun or interesting to read. But I didn't find this novel to be as realistic as the reviews make it out to be; the MC and ML literally talk like unnatural robots. The interactions between MC and her mom are way more realistic, relatable, and interesting to read than MC and ML convos, which is pretty sad imo. Maybe the author has more experience to draw from on that front. Sometimes the plot/narrative jumps around a lot which makes it feel disjointed (it... more>> also doesn't help that the translator chopped up the chapters a lot, but I'm sure that was preferable when the novel was still in the middle of being translated). This is definitely not a 4 star novel. <<less

TLDR Dropped it at ch 25, wanted something that wouldn't put me to sleep. 3 stars mostly for clarity and readability

Details: It's just dull and predictable. The MC is about as emotional as a spreadsheet. The ML is just plain boring. The only interesting characters were the mothers trying to ship these two.

Truly a hidden gem

I really love this novel, both FL and ML are clever and perfect with each other (A lot of cuteness and fluff ^-^)

No major or dramatic conflict

Its a balanced written novel (The development is there but you don't feel it as hurried)

Thanking the translator for the effort

Wow!!! I read the translations and finished the rest using MTL. All I can say is this really opened up my views in dating as well. Love the FL and ML’s thoughts. In life, u don’t necessarily end up with a passionate love, but a lasting relationship has to have Stability and someone with same wavelength as you. Awesome!

It's a short and simple read. The FL is ok. She's not super smart but she uses her common sense which saves a lot of time and avoids misunderstandings. The ML is ok too.

There's not much going on. If you want a "WOW" story, this isn't it. But if you just want to pass time without getting annoyed, this is for you.

MTL is easy to understand.

Overall, this story is a fairly straightforward one where the two met and got together. I do think that this is a decent read, but I would not recommend this to readers who are more plot and character focused.

Both the FL and ML are pragmatic people. The FL is very much an average nice person (no where near OP), while the ML is the typical OP male lead you see in all these novels.

Also, most of the other characters can pretty much be ignored, and there isn't much of a... more>> character development/ growth per se.

This is truly feel good and chill read with zero drama.

I will explain more on the story line and characters in the spoilers below.

Spoiler

Story line:

The ML and FL met through a matchmaking session arranged by their parents. The FL took the meeting very seriously, and wasn't initially that interested in the ML. The fact that the FL wasn't super interested and was taking the meeting very seriously was what caught the ML's attention, which I find sort of iffy.

Following that, FL tries to know the ML better and there was a bit of misunderstanding due to miscommunication, which was resolved quite simply, i.e., they talked, and they pretty much got together after. Subsequently, they have minor "issues" here and there, but that is pretty much it.

While this is labelled as transmigration, there isn't anything much that goes on, and could be a normal "non-transmigration" story, as it is almost a non-factor to the story line. For most parts of the development, it is attributed to the personality of the character and not "insights" per se.

Character:

There was an effort by the author to introduce some "drama" by having a "villain", but this story could really do without, as this character doesn't really do anything. Whereas, the friends of the FL and ML are sort of redundant as well. They do not add anything to the story other than serving the function of being "friends of FL/ ML".

The only side character who help along the story line, besides the parents, is the personal assistant of ML, who was the one who suggested that the ML go speak to the FL to clear up the initial misunderstanding.

It is really fluffy and chill and I did enjoy this novel, despite what I mentioned in the spoilers above. <<less

Actually, this is pretty much just a cliche novel. But what's wrong with cliche? I like this novel :)

I MTLed till the 3 epilogue. I'm pretty satisfied.

Even if cliche, but the MC and ML is not unreasonable. They are human. Human with normal feeling.

... more>> There are not love at first sight thing. There are not unnecessary bloody-dog drama going around. There are not damn revenge thing. There are not MC that likes do face-slapping to other people.

They just normal human with normal way of thinking. FL not suddenly fell for ML when ML confess to her. She wants to take their relationship step by step. I really understood why FL wanted like that. We can't suddenly accept other person that we just know for short time through blind date.

I really like when ML already fell for FL. He is really cute! I want someone like Gu Yucheng for me too!! He is a good husband and a good father. I wonder if the child of FL and ML is just Gu Yanrui? I want they have another child!

The trouble maker in the story is just Bai Xinyu. But her scenes are not much by the way.

Spoiler

Bai Xinyu is the protagonist in the novel. In her first life, she is married with Gu Yucheng but she is not cherished him well. She frustrated because of his indifferent personality and then she is fooling around with money from Gu Yucheng. But, she is dead because severe illness, and then she aware of how wrong she is. She regretted what she did. And then, she is reborn!!

Story takes Bai Xinyu already reborn and intended to stand side by side with Gu Yucheng. Unfortunately for her, the time when she goes back to Chinese, Gu Yucheng already fell for Sure Rui. In the alternate world too, Gu Yucheng never fall in love with her. So Gu Yucheng's love is just for our RUI RUI!!!

[collapse]

There is plot twist in the end. Turned out :

Spoiler

Su Rui is original citizen from that novel world. But she is dead when 13 y/o because drowned. Then another soul replaced her soul. That another soul is very rebellious.

After Su Rui is dying in the another world (the world that Su Rui thinks as her original world, where she read that novel with Bai Xinyu as FL and Gu Yucheng as ML), Su Rui transmigrated back to the novel world. The love story between Su Rui and Gu Yucheng begin~

[collapse]

Actually there are loopholes, but I will ignore them. I read this to read heartwarming story not for reading a science report. So, let's ignore loopholes <3

Alternate time world:

Spoiler

MC and ML's son suddenly appeared in alternate world where Bai Xinyu is Mrs. Gu. The time is before Bai Xinyu reborn. When she is fooling around as Mrs. Gu. So, Gu Yanrui (MC and ML's son) said that Gu Yucheng has bad sight. His mom is far better than Bai Xinyu. After that, Gu Yucheng divorced with Bai Xinyu. Gu Yanrui stayed in alternate world for a week, and being founded near in the Gu's company (the normal world time-line). I want Gu Yanrui scene more!! He is really adorable. When in alternate world, he said to the 'alternate Gu Yucheng' that he always fought with his father every day LOL.

READ THIS IF YOU SEEK FOR SWEET, LIGHT, AND HEARTWARMING STORY!! Don't read if you want face-slapping MC and bloody-dog drama lingering around. This is SWEET READ! ! ! <<less

This is such a nice story. Very simple and grounded, but at the same time, touching.

Although it is a slice of life story, it wasn't boring at all.

I like how the extras dealt with the parallel stories / lives.

Read this via mtl and worth it.

I haven't completely finished reading this series but up to the chapter 18 I find it to my very liking. It has calm and relaxing atmosphere. Well it's a cliche theme, with the MC is a transmigrated girl but I love the way she handled everything. She's very calm and take things slowly and objectively.

The relationship is also a mature one, basically I love a story with a good communication lol, can't stand the series of misunderstandings in every chapter.

I enjoyed reading this because no blood-dog drama since I'm so... more>> tired of reading such twisted character which actually was very unrealistic. If you're looking for some fluffy and sweet story, try reading this :)

Gotta edit this review after I finished reading this! <<less

Annoying as hell. No personal space, no "My life, my choice" thing; but "My life, mom's choice".

FL is soo amiable that when FL clearly doesn't wanna go to parties, but wanna go to company with FL's dad; but as "She's someone who knows aunties the best"; she'll go to parties as she knows her mom is good.

Garbage! Maybe this is the reason why I never wanted to read a Chinese modern setting novel, because there's no personal space!! While I like Chinese ancient novel very much, these modern ones... more>> are full of "Cold CEO & Sweet Cinderella" OR "Tomboy CEO FL & Calm, Poor ML" ! + No personal space.

Its an OK story overall. CP is generally portrayed 'normal' with real reactions. FL is the perfect wife, who has respect for elders, doesn't make a fuss, and is agreeable. I get what the author was going for, but its overall just meh.

ML is interested in FL because she's literally the first woman to act as a decent human being towards him. Parents are doting, bordering on excessive sometimes. FL's parents especially, are so eager to see their daughter paired off while she's still in school, but author plays it... more>> off as caring.

Novel is pretty bland for the most part, but veers off into another tangent

Pretty good read. Relaxing. Not too much going on. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a “cool down” novel after reading too much schemes and conspiracies type of novels.

I like the FL. Practical and has a very realistic view in life. ML’s character has depth too. Unlike the domineering male lead who can’t express his emotions. He’s just very career driven but he laughs when he’s happy, he’s playful when he wants to be, and of course very passionate when it comes to the FL. To be honest, they actually... more>> feel like real people.

I kinda lost interest around CH. 60, during FL’s pregnancy. I feel like the pregnancy itself was only used for the sake of ‘progress’ so it definitely feels rushed. I just skimmed it after that because by then. <<less

First of all, I'm an immature ass teen so the books that I'm interested in right now are fast paced with yandere-ish MLs and low-key op FLs.

Warning: spoilers

Unlike the novels that I usually read, the romance of this book progressed quite slowly. Although they did start officially courting at chapter 18 or so, they didn't "love" each other yet at that time. They were still in the getting to know each other stage and I actually really quite liked that. It gave off a more realistic feel to the story.

The... more>> characters are also SO DAMN MATURE like seriously. I like how the FL wanted her future husband to be someone capable and smart and "educated " per se, but I also disliked it at the same time. As a hopeless romantic teen, I see marriage as comitting yourself and spending the rest of your lifetime with the person you love, the FL kinda made it seem like marriage is needed to live a comfortable life so I kinda disagree with that idea.

As for the ML, I don't have much to say about him. He's one of the most mature MLs I've ever encountered but I don't know. He just wasn't my favorite. <<less

It’s a fun story without any unnecessary drama. You can binge read it and the translation is quite good.
Some people might find the age gap between the MC and ML a little troublesome. But if you ignore that part the story is fluffy and realistic.

The author tried for the "realistic" plot route but failed to capture that realistic relationships are not this "perfect".

To the point that the male lead would give way to the female lead in almost all scenario, like he was just there, with no opinion other than to be the orbit and give the female lead her halo.

The narrative is boring af and not relatable at all, and their conversations are so bland.

I kind of see how they fit each other, in that, they basically have no personality at all except... more>> be perfect... and uninteresting.

I honestly had a hard time finishing this book and I would give it lower stars but the translator did the job very well. <<less
