Reborn as My Love Rival’s Wife

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

There once was a very popular question on the internet:

If one morning, you woke up and realized that your gender had changed, what would be your first reaction?

And someone on the internet had famously responded:

First, give your bros a good time!

Su Jian remembered that when he saw this reply, he had slapped the table to express his admiration. What a good bro! Such loyalty!

But now that he actually encountered this strange situation himself, he could only feel an extremely ball-breaking alarm, shocked grief, and frightened anger. F**k your mom! Ah, f**k! F**k it!

Oh, a correction. The above is grammatically incorrect. After all, poor Classmate Su Jian doesn’t have balls anymore.

If I have one thing to say its the most wonderful novel I've ever read, do not mind Gendbend Tags, that make this work more interesting, its unique I don't know how writer able to produce the psychological of being male and female and I think that's what make it interesting, how su jian able to overcome the obstacle called gender and the character development of each person is perfect if by my standard, I hope I can have felling of reading it for the first time sadly I can't

One of the most refreshing novels I have ever read!

This novel basically had no special plot except for how MC gradually adapted to his new identity. But it certainly did its best to portrait the normal behavior of a guy who suddenly turned into a girl. The dialogues that only ran inside MC's brain were hilarious. As for cons, this almost had no schemes which made the novel a bit dull. Personally I also think the author should have let the ML know the truth as well.

Almost all the characters... more>> were lovely darlings with the exception of love rivals.

I would love this much more if MC wasn't a direct copy of those annoying straight men who only cares about visual eventhough it's obvious the personality is tr*sh af.

I'm not really sure about romance during the first part but during the later part, the story between MC and ML became sweet.

I think I laughed in every chapter XD. MC is really funny. There is little angst but they are not that complex which is less stressful to read.

Spoiler

Their kids are so great. I really novels where there are extras about the main couple's kids.

this story is full of classic melodramatic romance cliches that can boring, but it being from the point of view of a figurative and literal straight man is why it works so well. It's not meant to be taken seriously but I'm going to anyways. everything Su Jian does can be read as purposely dense but, like the author had to point out, he doesn't start to change his perspective until half way thru bc he doesn't expect to stay in the situation long term. He's just trying to survive... more>> so he can move on with his life. And from the other character's povs his actions can be read as an pure innocent girl, which is why her friend didn't think she changed bc of the accident, but bc of yixe. For such an over the top guy, jian is surprisingly one of the most grounded out of everyone bc he is operating by different rules than them. Everyone is a stereotype and he's the only one that sees how ridiculous they are. Jian seeing himself as man is why the humor of him being dense works better than it ever would if he was just another female lead. It would just be another romcom.

for what it's worth, I think the way he came to terms with his feelings was done well enough. Sexuality is a spectrum for some people. Sometimes you find someone opposite your perceived sexuality. While it could definitely be considered tired, the "expection" isn't that much of an unrealistic trope used just to move the plot along at all. That being said, I can see why it wouldn't be liked. It seems like it was done in good faith tho as the author made it clear that it would be mlm if the set up wasnt the way it is. <<less

Funny. Simple. Easy to read.

Like the author said, this is not a dogblood story, it's more of a comedy and 2 people coming together.

There are still exciting moments but they're not exactly the focus of the story.

What I most love about this novel is comedy. Romance is okay to me sometimes sweet. But it look a little forced. Their both very intimate moments are when MC was drunk or have aphrodisiac. Yeah, MC take initiative himself toward ml. But appreciate more if its when MC is fully sober. Upto now MC loves looks like come out after checking conditions and options. Not like I have fallen with him so now he is my lover or something. But its like my parents won' t let me with... more>> girl, anyway we have first time . But their is also some evidence of his love.. As he don't get attracted to anybody but ml. Anyway its a sweet comedy story, MC obliviousness and his funny comments make it hilarious. I preety much enjoy it. I have no problem with slow pace romance and I have appreciated if it come out more naturally instead of evaluating options. Yeah MC is a little narrow minded too, which I quite didn't enjoy it like thinking man eating sweet thing is not reputable or like a woman on entertainment circle at this age and time, how can she be pure or something. <<less

For such a highest reviewed book, I was expecting a whole lot more. This was my first gender bender book and while the plot was fine and the characters had some depth, it felt still too shallow. Questions important to the plot remained unanswered and we never got the see the biggest problem being solved. Overall, a decent read.

Very cute haha And the humour is top notch. The MC as a character is pretty endearing. And his actions as a male person inside a female body so he only knows the male way of thinking while everyone else treats him as a female makes for hilarious situations. And it's always so unexpected hahaha He's so distanced from thinking of himself as a woman now, so all the common tropes don't enter his head no matter what. So funny lol I stopped here because my craving was satisfied... more>> and didn't need to read until the end.

This was so well done. The gradual acceptance of everything (including the relationship), but always, always being himself. Even to the end. Super kudos to the author for the pronouns.

Spoiler

But two bros trying to figure out how to deal with his period was gold.

I LOVE IT!!! The romance is just exquisite, delicious, phenomenal. Honestly, I was, like all the other readers, afraid to read it because of the gender bender tag, but I persevered on because of the reviews. And let me tell you, I DO NOT regret one single bit. Sure, the guy who became a girl still had the mindset of a guy and he should have gotten used to being a girl, but HE WAS A GUY HIS WHOLE LIFE and he just suddenly turned into a girl, so his... more>> mindset can't just immediately change. So cut him some slack and continue reading it!! You'll love it. The humour and everything, the little sweet misunderstandings. One of the best books I've read in a while. <<less

If you are hesitating to read this because it's Gender-Bender, please don't. I hesitated reading it, but in the end, this is just a gem. First of all, the translation is great. There's a lot of chinese references that you can't probably understand from MTL, but is clearly explained by the translator.

This is the first cnovel I read where there's a lot of misunderstandings but it's not tiring. It's more like they think on different wavelengths most of the time and that creates a lot of comedies. But what I... more>> like is that they are both pure and honest so the misunderstandings don't create heavy drama.

This is very light read, but very enjoyable. There's no revenge. Although there's that white moonlight, she did not disrupt the MC and ML's love story. This is also the first time in a cnovel I read where the ML literally slapped his white moonlight for setting the MC with aphrodisiac. She deserves it.

It's a slow-romance, contractual marriage but it's full of fluff and comedies. Imagine the story is getting sweet and poignant from the ML's POV, then poof, instant comedy.

Spoiler

An Yize silently s**ked in a breath of air.

Su Jian said softly, “I like you a lot... ”

An Yize: “..... ”

Su Jian was still muttering, “I like you the most... ”

An Yize’s throat tightened up. He said hoarsely, “Jian Jian. Do you know what you’re saying?”

Su Jian was silent for a while. Right when An Yize suspected that he had fallen asleep, he suddenly spoke with a soft, frail, a bit coquettish yet very sincere voice:

“I know. In the past, I was the one at fault, the one at fault... Now, I’ve finally realized, ” Su Jian held onto An Yize tightly, “the one I love the most is you... ”

An Yize sat there silently and remained motionless.

The sound of his heart beating in his chest was louder than it had ever been.

He didn’t know how to describe how he felt. He could only lift his hand slowly and lightly slide his finger from the person in his embrace’s forehead to the corner of her mouth. Then, he cupped her face.

With her eyes closed, the girl obediently lay in his embrace as if she had finally found the safest place in the world.

An Yize felt his the c*ckles of his heart start to warm up.

For the past thirty years, he had been confessed to many times and confessed his love as well, but he had never experienced a feeling like this before.

He thought, so it’s like this that when a couple comes together harmoniously.


An Yize gave a light peck on the person’s forehead at his bosom, marginally tightening his arms.

The vehicles and pedestrians bustled along, except for him, calmly embracing his perfect one.

Su Jian laid in his arms, still muddle-headedly muttering, “I will listen to all your words next time... ”

Filled with gentleness, he replied with a murmur, “Mhm.”

Su Jian muttered, “I love you the most... Mom... ”

An Yize: “..... ”

[collapse]

The MC is so shameless, especially when she's together with the ML, but the catch is that he likes it. Eventhough it's a contractual marriage, they never act fake in front of other people most of the time.

Spoiler

I think Su Jian likes An Yihe but the hurdle they had to pass is that he's not ready to accept that he has to live as a girl for all his life. Thankfully, the ML is patient with her and MC was able to remove the doubts from his heart and is able to accept that he loves the ML.

[collapse]

ALso, if you're looking for smut, there's some here. MC was originally a healthy man who likes p*rn and after experiencing spring, he's very vigorous and adventurous. It's smutty and funny at the same time.

One of the review says it right, this has one of the best side-stories.

Spoiler

After they finished their meal, Su Jian laid on the bed and let An Yize hug him.

“Do you really not want to?” Su Jian lightly jabbed An Yize’s chest and sighed, “Didn’t you say you love me? I thought you would do me.”

An Yize kissed his forehead and said, “You’re too tired. Be obedient and sleep.”

The corner of Su Jian’s mouth raised.

He came here straight without stopping and was indeed tired, so he soon felt sleepy. However, before he fell into slumber, he asked dazedly, “Yize... when will you... open up... your... ”

Although his muttering was unclear due to his sleepiness, An Yize still heard it clearly. An Yize knew that Su Jian probably wanted to ask him why he wouldn’t open up his heart to Su Jian.

Nevertheless, Su Jian was too sleepy. Coupled with his memories of the things that happened, the “heart” he wanted to say became something else.

Su Jian: “Open up your... underwear... ”

An Yize: “..... ”

I absolutely love the MC. This is the first out of a few gender bender novels I've tried reading that I've actually completed and enjoyed. I've had this in my novel list for a while now and I'm so glad I tried it out before removing from my list. Theres so much fluff and funny sh*t here. Like I'm literally laughing my a** off several times a chapter. Might I also add that during the two days I've spent reading this novel I've been sounding like a squealing pig in... more>> my room.

10000000000000000000000/10 -ALTHOUGH THE AUTHOR WONT PAY FOR YOUR DENTIST FEE AFTER DROWNING YOU IN SWEET SH*T, ITS 100% WORTH IT!!DEFINITELY READ! <<less

Honestly, gender bender type is not my cup of tea. This is my first gender bender novel that I've ever read. Although the story itself is funny, I still feel that it's kind of weird. For me, perhaps it's better that in the past Su Jian is also a woman. But the story is still quite enjoyable if you're not thinking too much like me.

Oh, God. This is one of the most hilarious novels I've read, so far. It's a snickering, thigh-slapping comedy that you would not expect to fall in love with at the start. No convoluted plot nor overly dramatic encounters which, let's be honest, we are already tired of, at this point. I stayed up all night reading until Chapter 78, not caring that I had zero sleep for work the next day-- and I'm still reading right now!

I can’t believe how loud I laugh when I read this novel. Even when I don’t like gender bender genre, but this one is just so funny, and fluffy. MC personality is a little bit similar with mine, so I relate with him/her character. He/She didn’t fall in love immediately, we feel the MC’s struggle and effort when he slowly pursuit the MC to fall in love with him.

MC basically is a forever single male who died in traffic accident and his soul moved to the body of female who... more>> had same accident with him. Unfortunately the MC already married for 1 month to a super high quality male who always be a person that MC’s crush falls to. So basically he envy the ML, but now he had to live as his wife. And the novel is about their daily life and interaction between people around them. Highly recommended if you like comedic fluffy simple romance. <<less

[CONTAINS SPOILERS]

—————————

... more>> ~

When you actually get a decent romance body/genderswap story, that isn't just s*x or just plot being the character shout out that they're a "boy!" and the someone what of a tsundere silly romance happens, destroying the whole story, (quite typical of genderswap themed stories (particularly in Manga/Manhua/Manwha). This story takes itself on a bit more serious and emotionally depth note, which is very much too my fancy)

I'm glad that the story didn't go spiritual in the sense of 'Su Jian' and 'sister Su' was sharing the same body and everything becomes complicated and kinda uninteresting, though it does make me wonder where 'sister Su' has gone and why that Su Jian was able to enter 'sister Su' (like did she switch bodies with Su Jian and was the one to die in the hospital?), so I'm pretty glad that something where 'sister Su' did not come into the story and making difficulties in the romantic plot later on in which I was pretty worried about and would have dropped the story with in a heartbeat, to be perfectly honest, so I am pretty delighted that that didn't happen.

When 'Su Jian' finally awoken to his feelings for 'An Yize' And acted on them I got very excited in what would happen, I loved how he became aware of him, and how 'An Yize' was described In these moments, it got me feeling a bit "flustered", I would have loved there to be more of these passionate thoughts/moments coming and going in the story, wished it was a bit longer to just add these in, making more flustered bump ins with 'An Yize', and more foreplay from 'An Yize', yes please.

I do recommend people sticking to it, if you don't enjoy the internal dialog from the MC then just don't pay much attention to it! But it is quite amusing.

My first ever review on this site.
