Zhai Xingchen has transmigrated into a novel about a rich and powerful love variety show. Almost all of the 8 guests have a combination of beauty and wealth, which can be called the pinnacle of a love variety show.

For example, guest No. 1 is notorious and cold. Everyone has to avoid him. He has only been interested in financial data in his life, but he has an extremely handsome face. A casual smile can make people blush and walk. He is the master of the Future Business Empire, and he can swipe his bank card at will.

Guest No. 2, a straight boss with evil charm, height 191, male dog waist, shark muscle, the son of luck who will be famous in the world. Now he is still starting his own business, but he will suddenly become rich in a year, and become the owner of a listed company at a young age.

Guest No. 3, a gentleman who is aloof and abstinent, his shirt is always buttoned to the top. Although extremely clean, he actually has a twisted and fiery heart. And he is a well-known domestic e-sports ace.

The other guests are all rich second-generation, such as the enthusiastic and gorgeous queen Bottom, the restrained and temperamental high-level intellectual Bottom, the mature and dignified Bottom and so on.

But Zhai Xinchen is the nobody in this romance novel. He does the most work and gets the fewest shots. He has never received a Touched Message from beginning to end. He is a complete nerd. Ah, this persona suits him so well!

Zhai Xingchen is determined to be the little match, to burn himself and illuminate other guests.

When someone was hurt by the indifference of guest No. 1, he comforted: “It’s only because of his unfortunate childhood that he was so dark. Don’t you want to be his only light?”

When everyone thought that guest No. 2 was too greasy and domineering, he explained: “Don’t you think he is full of the spirit of a king? He will definitely achieve something in the future, I am optimistic about him!”

As for the guest No. 3: “He looks so cold and abstinent, don’t you want to tear his shirt off?”

Thanks to his efforts, the show really exploded.

Guest No. 1: “He is my only light.”

Guest No. 2: “Only he understands me best.”

Guest No. 3: “What I thought in my heart, even if I say it, it will be banned from broadcasting.”

Four five six seven guests: “I love him.”

Zhai Xingchen: “…Ah?”

When the show first aired, netizens said, “I don’t think the guests seem to be in love.”

Later: “Every episode is a jealous Shura field, so exciting!”

“This is too damn sweet! My little face is flushed.”

An entertaining read. But also just really sad. Specially when you realize how each of them really love the MC and you know that they're just not gonna end up together.

Huo Chen: "I hope that all the wishes Di Xingchen made will come true."

Just heartbreaking when you know all that he is doing is for nothing. I stopped at this part lol Maybe I'll read this again when I gain the courage. 😔

I would say the translation is good, but that would be a lie. Honestly, I think the translator is either

1) Chinese, because there were so many cultural Chinese things/words that wasn’t translated and it’s just echoing in my head without any help. I’m not getting it more than I originally would in my first-time reading. There are some words I could guess, though. Like, ‘The novel DXC wore’ probably means ‘the novel he transmigrates into’ 🤔 So I guess they probably just read their own translation and thought it made... more>> sense...

or 2) a Chinese learner. Using google translate and the things which are left untranslated is the things that they, too, don’t know what it means 😭

I mean yeah I read it side-to-side with google translation and I get the general meaning, but it wouldn’t help clarify much from the google translation. I just do it cuz I have free time now 🫠

The synopsis had me hooked, though. Let’s hope I can stick around for a few more chapters before my headache kills me. <<less

Kinda mediocre.

The three blues were fairly obvious right in the beginning they’re gonna fall for MC with all the “glanced at Di Xingchen for fairly few seconds” yada-yada. But I think all 6 of them with diff personalities and experience in life falling for him romantically was really stretching it. I think some of them should have only been impressed/attracted to him platonically, like ‘I want that guy as my friend’ or smn.

But skipping that point, not to sh*t on MC or anything but he wasn’t all that very... more>> special-special. He’s definitely a school crushie with his nice and proactive personality, beautiful face, and refreshing smile. (+Talented dancer) But all 6 of them being totally whipped on him for what? 1 week? Maybe 2? Nah. He’s not that much of a heart stealer. (Also it’s annoying that apparently “he’s the best dancer” although he doesn’t have the best skills “he’s got the best looks” 🙄) Honestly the only people I find reasonable that fell for him is Pei Xu, Yan Zhi, and maybe Wen Nuo.

For Wen Nuo, he’s a kindred, same standing, WN is insecure and he takes care of WN.

For Yan Zhi, he left a good impression when YZ saw him dance at school and gave an even better impression when YZ saw him again.

And for Pei Xu, cause PX isn’t very emotionally mature, seldom get involved with people, seldom get approached without ulterior motive; so he can be moved by this sunshine boi.

Let’s be honest, Huo Cheng’s more on lust or smn and Hu Yi’s seems whimsical. ‘Cause first, HY is very experienced in relationships so I can’t believe that he really fell that hard on such a green DXC. Second, they spent a lot of time together + the pink atmosphere in the love variety show may have tweaked some feelings but I can’t be convinced it’s real.

Duan’s I don’t even know. Duan got caught with the atmosphere? Everyone’s fighting so hard for him Duan got infected with their fighting spirit or smn?

Anyway, so I was curious how would he react once he knew everyone’s fallen for him but it just got dull. From being a proactive ball of sunshine, he became very subdued and passive. Where has his personality gone? Where’s the sunshine? He became so dim and dull and everything’s dull. I gripped my teeth wanting to read to the end but it’s so dull I made a whole basket out of paper scraps instead. <<less

My heart is giddy!!! My ship is the endgame for this story and everything is beautiful and sweet and suddenly I want to fall in love as well.

First of all, the pace of this story is SLOW. You need to go through many chapters to reach the point where revelations might appear or for you to find the “genuine chemistry” that you have been looking for, but I promise it’s definitely worth it because after that, the story picks up AMAZINGLY. The plethora of characters that the author paired to... more>> the MC play a part on this.

Each one of them is very distinct from the other and as a result, it doesn’t bring any dullness to the story especially when it comes to progression and how the relationships are built.

Spoiler

It’s totally toes wiggling as you read on the story and pick up the hints of how the MC treats specific character (the ML) or vice versa. Their characteristics play a huge role in shifting this perspective that to notice it feels really rewarding, like you are in their secret as well.

[collapse]

The way the author portrayed love is very pure as well — it’s not only happiness but also pain that comes from it. There isn’t anything condescending about it in the writing and humane in nature. As a result, it enriches the relationship depth between the MC and the other characters, then the aftermath.

Pretty much every characters in this story is OP, they know how to do basically everything to the point their flaws might seem insignificant to what they can do (lol). Gary sue, yes, but I do think it makes the conflicts interesting with how they play into the traits played into the plot. <<less

Only one sentence that I can mention.

This is truly the sweetest novel I have ever read.

i swear 😭😭😭

... more>> it was absolutely sweet from start to finish.

204 chapters, that's really not enough for me. I can even read another 200 chapters 😭😭😭

how to say?

all the characters are absolutely perfect 😭😭

The innocent and mature Kaka Duan. I think he's really the saddest, but not that sad. He is happy in a subtle way 🥺

Liu qingning, I was worried for her for a while. However no, no annoying cannon fodder plot twists, he really is a really good friend and big brother.

Our cute Wunnong, a pitiful baby who grew up well in the end. I really liked how he and Qingning ended up being brothers who depended on each other

Hu Ying, our most beautiful boy. He always makes me laugh with his bright and sometimes sad character, he is still the most fun until the end 😅☺

Huocheng, our dashing elder brother. To be honest, some of the parts I cried were all part of Huo's brother 😭😭😭 Nice way he released Zhai was really gentle 😭😭

To be honest, I'm really sad for Yan Zhi. To be honest, from the start I chose Pei Xu even before the Shura mines started, but among all the characters, it's clear that Yan Zhi has the greatest chance of rocking. He is really cold and wants to make us his mother 😭🥺

and the two characters I love the most. Our most beautiful and bright star zhai and our handsome and extraordinary Pei xu. I really never found a cuter CP than them 😭😭😭 it's really a minefield full of dog food 😭😭. DAMN, THEY ARE REALLY SWEET 😭😭😭

I can never move on from them.

anyone who wants to be happy and sm
Spoiler

ile, I really recommend this story.

I really want the MC ended up with Yan Zhi ! It's not fair that the author making yan zhi character gets more distance towards the end and doesnt explore more on his pov. Making it okay for him to lose to ML. 😭

Although I’m not a fan of harem stories, I decided to read this because of the Reality Tv show plot that rarely appears. MC is basically a gary stu who attracts everybody and anybody. Despite being gay and being a 1 he makes everyone around him want to dominate him and not a single character doesn't want him. It’s weird how not a single person on the show falls for anybody else, he’s said to basically be the shows background character, but he’s oblivious to the fact he’s the start... more>> of the show. The MC is a gay man it’s hard to believe he doesn't realize they want him. <<less
