My Husband is Suffering from a Terminal Illness

Description

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

Xie Yang struggled in the post-apocalyptic world for many years until he was too tired to go on. Then he transmigrated into a young adult entertainment circle novel where the protagonists have easy, sweet, and satisfying lives.

The male protagonist of the novel is not just handsome and smart, he’s also reborn. The female protagonist of the novel is not only beautiful and works hard towards her dreams, she also has a cheat in her hands.

There’s a lot of male and female supporting roles, each having pretty face, nice figures and someone strong behind them. Get into any one of their bodies, and he could close his eyes and just enjoy life. But he didn’t. Instead he transmigrated into a young idol secretly married to the biggest villain of all — the male protagonist’s maternal uncle.

His title is husband but it’s more like a nurse. Because this novel’s biggest villain is a terminally ill patient who is gloomy and sick in the head (actually sick). Their marriage was to counter the bad luck (illness).

Xie Yang: Who cares if you’re the male lead, female lead, male supporting, female supporting, villain or protagonist. Get in the way of my comfortable life and you’ll die (:

You know what 5 Stars is worth it just for the character Xie Yang alone.

Xie Yang is really smart. And his has a mouth where you can't win against. He used this very well through out the novel. You can't even argue back because everything he says is so reasonable and put you out of breathe if you try to argue back. I enjoy the most when faceslapping those haughty big wealthy family who try to look down on him. I do wish we know more about his first world... more>> history. I know Xie Yang seems OP but how can he not when he's facing someone who has a system, he generally doesn't use any power to get things done but very resourceful with his methods. He relies on himself most of the time and ML would help out sometimes because he knows about the troubles.

I do wish that we know more about the first book, some dialogues of what really happen with ML when he was brainwashed by the FL the first time. I actually never worried about the illness of the ML because it never got the point where he was dying. Although I was stress sometimes with the weibo things saying crap about Xie Yang, they would get face slap pretty soon. The love between them was a bridge that need to build step by step. It wasn't easy opening the heart of ML when you read you know how rough his personality is at the start. But once you get in he's very interesting in all sort of ways.

All in all the couple didn't struggle as much as I thought, I didn't think it was going to be a music industry, so there was surprises here and there. ML of the book isn't bad as I thought, So people can look forward to him. Mother Qiu also I love her so much, she's just a wonderful person..

The author could've done more with planting some love rivals, I didn't eat enough vinegar, haha. ML reactions is very funny so I wanted more of those scenes where he is jealous.

People would like this novel if they enjoy sweet caring love and want some faceslapping and fluff along the way. <<less

OOOF this is another winner in the slice-of-life/drama department. The setting is pretty vanilla (with just a few out-there elements), but there's a lot of excitement! More importantly, the characters are really lovable T.T OML, I seriously love the dynamics between the MC and ML, it's a very rare power!shou and tsundere!gong relationship and I---AHHHHHHH T.T I'll talk about it more later, but this is definitely highly recommended for those looking for something sweet and simple to read.

CHARACTERS:

The characters were the best part of the story! It had... more>> its share of pointless cannon fodder enemies and villains to act as a foil to the MC and ML, but they don't detract from the loveliness of the main characters and the more important side-characters~

Xie Yang (MC) : Xie Yang was from an apocalyptic universe (i.e., the usual type, with power ability users to counteract similarly powerful zombies). He ends up transmigrating into a novel that he had just finished reading as a cannon fodder character. This character had the same name as him and was pretty ruthlessly killed after he lost his usefulness in the original story.

The most important thing that you need to know about the OG!XieYang is that he was sold off by his family to the rich 'villain' boss, Qiu Xing (the ML). As for our actual MC, he's very musically talented and his goal is to live well in this new world -- which he does by depending on his talent and leaning on the powerful golden thighs of the world's 'villain' boss~

Qiu Xing (ML) : The ML in the original novel acted as the springboard for the protagonists of said novel. He looks very cold outwardly, but it's clear pretty early on that he's a tsundere~ His insides are extra soft! He slowly becomes more and more interested in the highly dependable MC, though he won't admit it~

ROMANCE:

As mentioned, the character settings for the main pair are a bit unique! Outwardly, the MC is definitely the one who is most proactive about the two's relationship (in every sense of the word!). The ML is also shockingly cute! He might be possessive and overbearing at times, but for the most part, he's really fricken adorable T.T As a result, the romance is very subtle at first! But it becomes ultra sweet by the end.

SETTING:

This is a Modern Setting, and there's a lot of focus on the entertainment circles. There are also some overbearing president themes because the ML runs a company LOLOL! As for the aforementioned surprises, that's thanks to the MC's previous world (wherein he was an ability user) and the golden finger of the female protagonist in the original novel!

Minor Spoilers:

Spoiler

The female protagonist of the novel had a SYSTEM! One that allowed her to swiftly move up in the ranks of the entertainment circles. Though the means are 100000000% dubious.

[collapse]

PLOT:

There's a lot of face slapping and drama in the entertainment circles. This explores that in full -- especially in the beginning stages! For example, the first arc focused on the boy idol group the OG!MC had been a member of. Said idol group was a veteran group close to collapse, and the MC deals with things accordingly! In the latter arcs, the focus will change to focus on the original female protagonist's side of things and the ML's terminal illness! Altogether, it's a completely packed plot, with the main character's developing relationship at the core~

RATING:

This gets full marks from me! Straight up! The characters are charming, and I'll definitely come back for them again in the future. Furthermore, while I can't tell how realistic the depiction of the entertainment world is, I can tell that the author really went through a lot of effort! The first arc, especially, is shockingly familiar jfslkajf T.T All in all, there are lots of feels to be had from this story and I can't recommend it highly enough! <<less

Their relationship is just AWWWWWWWWW! Sweet and heartwarming!

ML is your typical too powerful CEO. But he is never overbearing when it comes to his beloved. ML respect MC's decisions. ML sometimes get jealous because of MC's job, you know being an idol means MC has lots of fans who always post on Weibo that they want to kiss MC or do "cough.. Cough" hehe BUT our ML never get in the way of MC's job. ML let him do whatever makes him happy.

ML showes MC his scared n weak side. Sometimes ML acts like a spoiled child with MC. Yup they are sooooooooooo sweet!!!!!

[collapse]

Spoiler

one of the things I like about this novel is that author didn't make original ML (our ML's nephew) a bad guy. Instead author made him lovly family member who loves n care about his uncle.

I'm feeling all the love and heart-warming scenes between XY and QX. Wish I could have some I could kiss with as much love and warmth like they have. 🥰 HTI is the kind of feel good yet exciting story that you should explore about.

It never gets tired reading this all over again.

I'm feeling all the love and heart-warming scenes between XY and QX. 🥰 Kudos to Rainbow translation for your efforts and excellent work on this. Cheers!

The story revolves around our MC who transmigrated when he died during the apocalypse, as a cannon fodder married to a dying CEO, who's supposed to be the villain of the novel he had read.

I love the relationship 0f the ML and MC so much. There's a lot of fluff and sweet moments together, they are a very loving couple and protective of their relationship and very much respectful of each other's feelings.

The ML is sweet, shy and a very doting partner, but tsundere "little mouse". The MC is black... more>> bellied, he's smart, calculative and actually an OP character if I must say.

I only have some questions because he's too OP, I mean he's a total package kind of guy. He can sing well, play piano, violin and can act really well, aside from being too smart to crush all his opponents. I wonder about his previous life. But oh well it was explained a little. So, if you don't like this kind of character you may wanna skip this one. But who knows? Maybe try a few chapters?

Also, I cried about the story of the bird and the rabbit. That said, 4.5/5 for me. <<less

I love this so much. ML finally accepting treatment after countless pursuasions was such a good scene for me. Literally every step during treatment almost made me cry. Although I feel like ML is more three-dimensional than MC despite being the tsundere he is, I still love MC and his sassiness. He never backs down at all lol.

Read this months ago, and just wanted to leave a review.

Its a pretty fun novel, I feel like I remember a lot of face slapping happens and sometimes thats what you want in a novel. Though the last time I've read this novel... no offense to the translator, but there was a lot of small mispells and pronouns that were switched so it did threw me off but its not that bad. There were some plotholes as well, I think if the novel could make me suspend my disbelief even... more>> with a lot of plotholes, it would have a better rating in my opinion.

Random thoughts while reading : "ML is really funny as a hard headed tsundere, but in real life he is exhausting, cute moments with MC though, perfect match they match together" "XIE YANG IS SO COOL YES HIT THAT MALE LEAD WITH THE COLD HARSH TRUTH."

I've written in my notes that I liked ML getting slapped by the MC... so I guess something mentally ? and he deserves it? And that the couple are well matched? so this might be all of it.

Good couple ship + face slapping + HE = okay novel to spend few hours on <<less

This is a personal favorite that I am willing to reread countless of times. I've read this book twice prior to posting this review and it just never lost its beauty to me. The characters, their development, the plot, and the translation are all 5/5. I have laughed, cried, and smiled throughout this journey. I love how the highly competent MC and the cold-outside-but-very-caring-inside ML greatly complement each other. I truly, truly recommend this for I hope to share this great joy and wonderful story to everyone. I hope that... more>> you'll give this a chance and I promise that it will be worth it. <<less

I really loved reading this novel. This is my first showbiz novel I've read (or at least the first one that focused on the entertainment industry), and I'm super satisfied by the amount of face-slapping in this novel. I felt that the beginning of the novel was a bit slow, but overall the pacing was pretty good.

Xie Yang (MC) is cool and clever, and I like that he's ruthless. Qiu Xing (ML) is a tsundere, but it's not annoying at all, and actually rather cute because he's really fun... more>> to tease. Their dynamic was hilarious in the beginning, and I enjoyed watching their relationship develop and change. They both genuinely care for each other, there isn't any useless drama in regards to their relationship. The romance is pretty slow on this one, but it makes sense because QX is terminally ill, he doesn't want to enter an actual relationship with XY only to leave him widowed in the end. (Don't worry, this is a HE!)

Spoiler

At the end of the novel where someone posts a comparison of the two photos, captioned with, "I watched you go from the hospital gown to the wedding suit. The journey wasn’t easy. I wish you happiness." made me emotional sob

4.5/4 Stars from me!

I enjoy the story with a strong MC personality and Tsundere ML characters! There's no Angst detected for me. Just a little bit hurt/comfort.
Even though it felt like the MC was a Mary Sue-type of character, but I did enjoy the way the author write it.

I just want there's some touch of angst a little bit. But this portion was okay tho.

The character development between the MC and ML goes so well. It's a kinda slow burn but I really like their interaction with each other.

Thanks to Rainbow Turtle who picked up this story <3

I'm crying. Feeling so soft after reading all that. Re-read this again and I loved it even more. This is exactly what I was looking for in novels. Strong, dependable, witty MC and an equally strong, dependable and soft ML. The amount of face-slapping is good, not too overbearing and seemed to flow into the story well. And the amount of dog food was unbearable, I love them. The way the author writes how they work to overcome the difficulties they face never fails to make me cry out of... more>> fondness. They're so well-matched, I'm so happy for them and their ending. UGH! Now I have to suffer trying to find a novel that can top this! Thank you so much for this beautiful story, I'll never experience this type of love in my life!! <<less

This might be one of my all time favourite of china novels (the other being SVSSS). I have read this 2 times and I still liked it so much! I will probably revisit this again~

The author has improved her writing from One Useless Rebirth and My Boyfriend's Brain Is Sick (not available on NU, a hilarious novel with the best handling of unwilling parents and unwanted child so far). The personalities of the all the characters in the novel are well-written, not just the MC and ML. The villains are... more>> not dumb! They do not suffer from negative IQ points! The author also turns a certain cannon fodder character into a fan favourite! I would say the only flaw for the novel doesn't really reveal much on MC (Xie Yang) 's background before transmigrating into this world. There is also some unrealistic business part but acceptable.

Regarding Xie Yang's OPness, it's more or less in line with the in-universe's rules. It is established right from the beginning that he is an award winning composer and music producer. His good voice is only available in the current world. He knows some self-defence due to previously surviving in an apocalypse and his acting is mainly based on his feelings in the apocalypse. Kind of stretching it but still okay since this is a stated upfront feel good novel.

Spoiler

his special ability is also not a one shot cure all. That surprised me since I thought it is going to be OP! Also, the FL... ahhh...

[collapse]

I will have to say, chapter 100 shocked me as I did not expect the plot to go to that direction. As someone who dislike system story, I enjoyed the ending greatly. So don't be afraid to read it! Everything is explained!

On my 2nd read, the lines between Xie Yang and Tsundere Qiu Xing becomes extremely sweet as their interaction changes and they start to care for each other. AHhhhhhhh! They never outright says they like each other but their action and conversation! ahhhhhh!!!

The author has somehow not fallen into the trap writing the bottoming character like a woman unlike many, many CN writers. Xie Yang is a man and he acts and behaves like a man even after they got together. This makes the novel a gem in my view among numerous other CN novel. The author also breaks the domineering cold CEO stereotype for the ML by making him a tsundere but never too much!

Finally, with regards to the translation (I read to c120), it covers around 90% of the novel's original meaning and it's quite readable. I bought and read the raws as I wanted to support the author.

Please read and support the author if you can! She seemed to have ran into a wall for her latest novel. : ( <<less

Cute story with loads of dog blood and great translation.

This story is for those who don't mind drama with a super OP protagonist (to the point it's illogical), so OP that everything is a smooth ride, that is also covered in sugar (relationship between MC and ML is very sweet).

That part was honestly a con for me, but I really enjoyed the relationship between the MC and ML, their dogfood was delicious so I was able to continue.

I might even re-read this story for the dogfood in the future.

Spoiler

If there's one thing I don't like, it will be the ability core phenomenon. I actually don't quite understand what happened on the love system at the end. It's quite confusing.

Aside from that, I like how MC didn't overly involved his supernatural ability in his career because he's already competent himself. I'm glad that the author/s didn't pave the path in that way.

[collapse]

All in all, definitely a 5 star rating!

I absolutely love the mouse endearment lol

I also gotta say that the translation is superb! Thank you so much! P.S. Im not really aware that this novel has Shounen Ai tag so I was confused why MC is a male lol but didn't regret reading at all definitely <<less

This story is really really good. They are the power couple. And I think it is refreshing and different from other similarly genre novels. They learn how to love, how to live, how to cherish. And I love how both of them complete each other, and the gong is not the typical overbearing CEO This is seriously one of the best novels I've ever read ❤️.

I really liked the novel. MC and ML's relationship was enviable. What I liked the most about this novel was the ML, he wasn't the typical overbearing CEO with hardly any emotions. He was insecure, afraid and timid cause he was going to die but after being stimulated he finally confessed to MC. Their emotional journey was so beautiful. Although here are a few plot holes and MC is to op I still liked it.❤️❤️
