Transmigrated as the Stepmother of the Male Protagonist in a Campus Story

Description

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

Jiang Jinjin transmigrated into a book, a campus story and became the stepmother of the second male protagonist, and throughout the story, the description of this stepmother is very little, with a rough estimate of no more than two hundred words.

The male protagonist was sixteen years old this year which was the most rebellious period in a person’s life.

The male lead’s father was thirty-nine years old this year, mature and refined, self-sufficient and unfathomable.

He was not someone she can handle, so she slipped away.

Jiang Jinjin, who was very self-aware, was obsessed with money under the identity of Madam Zhou, but she didn’t expect that along with money, she had to manage the father and son at the same time.

Jiang Jinjin was stunned. Does father and son have some kind of weird habits. Obviously she only treated them as her tools.

No soul stirring romance but this was an easy read with a slice of life / family-centric focus. ML and MC are both very strong independent people who have their owns lives and goals and values — they aren’t the type to go “I’ll give up everything for you! You’re more important than anything else” etc. They’re realistic characters in that way, but it also makes the romance a bit lackluster IMO. The family component is heart warming and the son is hilariously cute. It got a bit draggy towards... more>> the end, but the extras were GREAT. I feel like the extras were better than the main story lmao
Spoiler

The son and MC travel back in time to the ML’s yourh and befriend him. ML still falls in love with MC and the school life romance is sweeter than their adult romance.

MTL'd the rest, so I can't fully say that it's a great story, but I can say that it's a good story. I don't know how I feel about the latter chapters. I would have liked it better if the writer kept the accepted way/reason that the MC came into the world in the novel. It would have made the story more grounded to reality, but then it would make the title a lie. Hopefully, the translator will also include the author's notes at the end of the story to... more>> help in understanding the whys and wherefores of how they lived their lives. <<less

It's quite an enjoyable slow-burn romance novel. Love the dynamic between the stepmother and the son especially. The extra stories have more twists in my opinion than the main plot. But, overall, it's a nice story to binge-read and mtl is not too hard to understand. Thank you!

It is a very well written, none cringey and witty novel. It hooked me enough that I mtled rest of the chapters. I love her relationship with the step son. It is refreshing that instead of developing the story into typical og mother is very bad and new mother is some kind of angel sent from heaven. The author developed the relationships in a very logical and practical manner. My fav part was the fact that instead of becoming mother and son they became each other's family in a sense... more>> that they could confide in each other. Their dynamics are a lot like bffs or maybe a super cool aunt taking care of her siblings children. Over all, I really liked it.

Plus, someone find me a man like mc's ML too <<less

Transmigration, parallel world are basic tags for this one. This was a bit different as the original owner of the body used to dream of MC in another world, so when the MC transmigrated into the body of the owner, she got clues by original owner's left behind drawings and paintings and clue in her diary, that the owner seemed to know of her.

ML was near 40 with a 16 years old son, MC aged 27 so the age theme was played well here. There were lots of points to be fully explored or personality issues to be fully played and solved but it wasn't the case. Story felt uncompleted at the end. Underdeveloped story, insufficient buildup towards the climax and the end. Pacing was slow. Characters were well rounded of the three main leads MC, ML and the son.

It was a light read till the end where it becomes open ended.

It’s a great novel. Loved the FL mentality of relying on herself first. Loved the step-son. He was so warm, he is my favorite character of all the novel. Loved the relationship between FL and her step-son. The ML was a bit bland. Strangely enough it’s one of the rare novels where step-family member are not striving to compete for their own interest at the price of morality integrity and human conscience. It’s a light novel more focused on family relationship than romance.

Holy shit. I did not expect that. This is an incredibly beautiful novel. Some may have a problem with the first half as I am seeing a lot of comments about MC's greed for money, and while it is true, it didn't bother me much, but once you get pass through that part, you'll find that this is a very beautiful, light-hearted, found family novel. The romance was slow moving at the first half but I absolutely loved when it developed. MC's relationship with the son is so cute, they're... more>> quite like siblings but I love how they warmed up to each other. ML was also quite fond and tolerant of MC's antics, I quite like their acquaintance to lovers trope.

Might I add, THE EXTRAS!!!! The extras are absolutely so so so so so SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! It;s so cute and so warm, it made me feel so fuzzy and made me sigh from emotion. SO good and so cute!

I also really like how there's a valid although kinda vague explanation about the transmigration. I read the translation at webnovel though, it was very clearly MTL'd hahaha. But it's fairly readable so you can go ahead and read it! <<less

It is a good choice to read light hearted story without being tired from thinking too much. There is reasonably no stepmother-son relationship (his biological mother is still alive) they are rather really like close friends who always fight with each other but also protect from others

FL was my fav type of girl so I definietly wasnt repulsed by her

I LOVE THIS NOVEL SO MUCH! Don't hesitate to jump into the pit, because this novel is highly recommended by me! (Who rarely writes a review unless the novel is THAT good). This is the kind of novel that makes you binge-reading & you immediately feel empty when the story ends.

You know, how to say it, it's decent, I mean you get the humor taste in this novel but not to the point it cringes you (like most Chinese comedy novels). The story is logical, I think there is no... more>> brainless plot. You can see that the author is really good at writing & actually paid attention to the detail. The face-slapping scene is satisfying and not so exaggerated, so I enjoyed it.

I especially love the interaction between FL & her stepson, Zhou Yan. They don't seem like a son & a stepmother, rather they seem like a pair of siblings who likes to bicker everytime & everywhere. I want to see more of the quarrel between the dynamic duo!

FL is a woman who has great combat skill (arguing) & makes the opponent speechless. LOL. She has strong principles & not the type of woman who likes to be led by men. However, she has a sweet, coquettish & funny side to act in front of ML, which makes me like her even more.

ML is a calm person. The author described him as someone who has a keen eye for something because of his age (the older you get, the calmer you are & the more you could discover people's intentions). Also, when I read this novel, I got a different vibe between the teenage ML & grown-up ML. I think it's interesting to see it!

My favorite parts in the novel :

Spoiler

Zhou Yan was also very tired. He had a habit of sleeping, that is, he liked to cover the whole person under the quilt.

Zhou Mingfeng stretched out his hand, as if he had done it countless times, and helped him open the quilt.

Jiang Jinjin glanced at him and understood in her heart that in the past ten years, Zhou Mingfeng had also woken up countless nights to help his son pull out the quilt.

[collapse]

Also :

Spoiler

When Jiang Jinjin walked to the entrance of the supermarket, she suddenly remembered that this was the first time the three of them had come to the supermarket together. Isn't it worth remembering?

"Wait a minute."

As soon as she said these words, the two men surnamed Zhou on the left and the right stopped.

Jiang Jinjin took out her mobile phone with a smile on her face, and motioned for the two to enter the camera.

"Come here, take a photo for a memento, today is the first time we have come to the supermarket to shop together."

[collapse]

But, there is still one unresolved thing.

Spoiler

When Zhou Yan accidentally found Xu Congjian's notebook & 'Jiang' is written on it, the author doesn't explain furthermore about it until the end of the story. The author just vaguely said after that Zhou Yan invited Xu Congjian to come to the basketball court and played together in a tacit manner until both of them were exhausted.

So, my question is, does Xu Congjian see FL as someone he likes (as opposite sex) or it's like a form of respect to FL because FL is kind of like his savior & he is grateful to have FL as his boss? Is it possible that Xu Congjian is the (passive) second ML all the way?

Still, I'm happy for Xu Congjian, in the end he successfully enrolled to medical school as he wishes. He is one of my favorite character in this novel (Though almost every characters in this novel are likeable, even the villains aren't so annoying, except the [OG] FL's ex-boyfriend's mom). I don't know why, but actually Xu Congjian reminds me of Shen Kuo, the ML from Back to the Years When My Father Was in School. Maybe it's because he is also a poor high school student with hard-working bones and doesn't talk much on a daily basis. Anyway, both of them are my favorite characters, I love calm and smart guys, haha.

I actually came here searching for the raws of the story "I became the male lead's stepmother after transmigrating" I read on Webnovel.

This is basically the same story with slight change in setting and character names. It's quite short and easy enough to finish so I treated it as my junk food entertainment. The story isn't anything new but the characters are not tacky and not annoying to read about.

Overall 2.6 stars rounded to 3

Enjoyable read. I rarely finish CN romance novels that I read nowadays but I'm glad that I found this novel which is worth reading until the end in my opinion.

I did not find the MC to be s*upid and selfish, on the contrary I think she was street-smart and mindful of others. She's eager to make and accumulate money but I did not think that it was a negative trait of hers.

MC and ML are the kind that do not say I love you to each other but will show... more>> their love in other ways.

I also like the extra chapters which is quite different from the usual ones.

Other reviewers wrote it better but yeah, would recommend this one. <<less

I dislike transmigration where people don't get full memory. Makes the person feel like an imposter vs. Merged and improved person. I think a lot of the weirdness in this is because lack of memories. She's able to extrapolate a ton from book, but her level of success feels fake. Like not recognizing people who are friends or family at sight, etc. This makes it difficult to suspend disbelief this making the entire story feel significantly faker than what I'm comfortable with.

Takes too long to get together.

Overall... more>> I enjoyed a fair bit, but a ton of it left me frustrated. <<less

It's a short and decent read.

There is really no overarching plot. MC just wants to make money and along the way she and the ML fall in love. He is the most decent and mature ML I have ever read about. There are no misunderstanding or angry accusations. Even when he is jealous, it's in a quite way and never hurtful. The ML's son was cute, and I love the relationship MC and he have. Rather than being his mother, she thinks of him as a friend and they mostly... more>> bicker and fight. <<less

Why the author describe the FMC of almost his/her novel to be so self-oriented, selfish, and ignorant/ indifferent?

Hell, and nearing the end, the FMC changed for the better...... And itu it so boring and plain

Good pacing, sensible characterisation and relationships.

Somewhat convenient and contrived story telling, but overall a memorable and enjoyable ride from start to finish; highly recommended!
