Even Rong Ci said that without the two of them (Rong Ci & Ming Zhan), Ah Li and Jingyang with Ah Xuan would live together forever.

--- very spoilerly, but the spoiler is for minor plotline ---

He was poor and his child had incurable sickness. MC help him made money. ML came and wanted to pursue MC, so ML also met this side character and healed his child free of charge.

On ML's bday, MC had a present for ML and one way or another the MC entrusted his gift to be given to ML by this person. Guess what? He said to ML that the gift was FROM HIMSELF.

I understand he was insecure if MC and ML got together than he would get abandoned. But let's be real.

• He is an adult
• He already had a child
• His decision of past events were part of the reasons that led him to his current circumstances (poor and his child's sickness)

So without MC he would still be poor and ML wouldn't cure his child.

But even after all that he still took MC's gift as his own credit. When MC questioned him (yeah, MC realized his gift wasn't conveyed), guess what? He said something like,

"He (ML) is the one who healed Ah-Xuan (his child), but I didn't prepare any gift for him on his bday so I felt bad and took your gift for him as mine. Don't worry I will pay you."

Heh. He's not grateful for MC's help in making money and ML's help in curing his child, not even a little bit, based on his behavior.

• Telling white lies
  --- I don't mind this
• Take credits which supposed to belong to your benefactor --- I don't like it but I can close one eye.
• Using innocent child as a reason to do those things above --- this is what I hate the most about him.

And it's not the only time he lies.

Author portrayed him as someone who really loves his child. Many people (in the comments I found) also think so. But from what I see, I can't fool myself.

Especially the 'love his child' part. The greatest beneficiary from MC and ML's appearance in his life is not himself, but his child. He can still get by without MC and ML, but not Ah-Xuan.

I know telling lies with kids as reasons especially when the kids needs help from the opposing party isn't everyone reverse scale. But it irks me when people praise this kind of person.

was forced by the system to be repeatedly r*aped just to conceive. The trauma he experiences throughout the story really broke my heart. The physical and emotional pain that he goes through during his pregnancy, and even the stress after giving birth frustrated me. There's a lot of time that I really just want to hack down the second system (p.s the system was originally kind and created to help women and do them justice from their painful relationship with their husband and parents in law, however, it accumulated too much hate from people it help so it's broken into two system, one which is kind, and two which is hateful and don't heed reasons, which is specially mad towards men who let their wives suffer.) I'm scared of children noises, so I can connect with his irritation when the kids are crying, it's really traumatizing. Maybe it's not for other people, but for a person like the MC who's used to being free and dependent, suddenly having to care for the children he didn't even want in the first place, is really too damn ruthless and just plain suffering

So, the novel... I read it in a couple of weeks' time.

The protagonist, Su Jiyang was a good fellow. The ML Rong Ci was a good ML.

I felt it was a bit slice of lifed in some parts. welp, it had a good pace tho and I wanted to know how the protagonist would end the plot. I liked the ML a lot, tho the very cold type. Something new tho is that they both were quarreling every second when they saw each other, hahahaha you know, it lived up the atmosphere wich made it different from other novels i've read, quarreling in a good way got it, tho I felt MC was sometimes took things too personal sometimes, it's good with his personality tho.

That system gave me a huge stomach ache of holding the mouthful of blood I wanted to vomit. Can't blame MC for having his thought, he was really a very good MC in terms of his psicological development. I also wouldn't accept something like that.

The progress of the relationship gave me a headache, given the title I was expecting something more fast foward so maybe it was that my expectatives weren't what happened that hit me.

Something I was in trouble with is that... There was this character Ling Li which became MC's family, I don't know, maybe this was also new for me, and that I wasn't up for this in this period of time when reading this, but I felt like it gave so much attencion.... I liked that character and not mention his son Ah-Xuan, he was such a cutie... but like, hmmm, it was also part of the plot actually now that I think about it. Not only this, as the story progresses there's also a lot more who take the focus in the story.

The protagonist was given with a choices of collecting positive energy and he had to do good deeds to others and others to be thankfull for him helping so he can leave or having kids, though at theend he still had to collect energy to help the "good" side of the system to eliminate himself and stop hurting more people....

So there was a motive for the MC getting so involved in other's character life and not being the sole center of attention... but it was too much for me sorry, tho I understand that this plots were also part of MC plots... ayiooo I'm confused what to feel ok?.

Tho let's be clear, the story never stops, it flows pretty well, really the author did well.

At the end I becameso impatient in those last 7 chapters that I skepped a lot of parts and only read few words in paragrahps till getting to MC's plot.

The last part satisfied my wishes, like, ok reading till this is at least worth it. I loved the ML and that finally the MC got to be clear with his mind, it was then that I thought, well he was like that all the way because that's his character and that's it, no big deal (i had to wait long tho to say this xd), ehn I say this I'm refering that he maybe was too proud to say some things he should've said earlier.

In that aspect I have to really appreciate how the author didn't make any character feel OCC, it was worthy they were all in their characters.

I liked the Rong Hua story, that scumbag suffered, and he became happy, sooo good.

Ling Li, I like youok?, but you got so much the center of attencion that I was getting tired lol hahahaha.

I began reading this because I wanted Mpreg, but it came so late and in susch a way it made me upset that I got turned down hahahahah.

EN RESUMEN:

Not what I was expecting, really not at all, I wanted to drop the novel a lot of times because I felt like it was getting so long.

Putting the novel on analisis it may be good. Just not for me.

Won't read again and maybe I may forget of this, Three stars is enough for me nor less not, it wasn't bad as to give it twostars, but four stars is also very far ahead for this one imo right now.

From tsundere ML who gradually fell for MC, to a stubborn, but with mature outlook who struggled to find his happiness as his world turned upside down due to a system, forcing him to finish task by giving him hope to return but getting caught up and bound to this world as he yearned for ML and his kids, from his BFF who made a living together and became good friends, and then his struggles as he lived with his kid who had been mentally harmed and his fear and desperation to run away from the soon to be emperor prince, and how he was harassed by the old lunatics and then the story of true protagonist rong Hua and his husband....

Anyways, the ML is kinda cute. He's definitely NOT as cute as Ah'Li. The injustice of this novel is beyond belief. I really wanted them to run away and raise Ah'Xuan together and I held on to that until chapter 60. After I realized it wasn't gonna happen I lost interest pretty quickly. Ah'Li and JingYang had so much chemistry. More than with the ML. JingYang is so annoyed at the ML the whole time and the ML is so f*cking rude, I wasn't convinced the whole time. I hate the fact that the ML is so pushy and forceful when it comes to love it made me feel f*cking helpless and distressed. It felt like JingYang was forced the whole time (he practically was) HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF THAT WITH AH'LI!!!!

THE ONLY TIMES JINGYANG HAD BODILY AUTONOMY WAS WHEN HE WAS WITH AH'LI!!!!! LITERALLY ONLY THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS EQUAL.

AND I KNOW IN ORDER TO MAKE THE ML MORE LIKEABLE THEY MADE HIM PATIENT AS f*ck AND MADE HIM PUT UP WITH ALL OF JINGYANGS CURSING AND VERBAL ABUSE BUT STILL.!!!! BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING ML PUT HIM THROUGH IT'S THE LEAST IMO THAT HE SHOULD DO, BUT IT FEELS NOT GENUINE. BECAUSE HE TAKES IT OUT ON HIM LATER ANYWAYS SO IT DOESN'T MATTER.

JINGYANG HAS BEEN UNDER CONTROL FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE NOVEL, EITHER IT'S THE SYSTEM BEING A f*ckING c*nt, OR IT'S THE ML BEING CHILDISH AND DOING WHATEVER HE WANTS WITH HIM! IT'S SO f*ckING DISTRESSING IT MADE ME ANNOYED. GENUINELY DISTRESSED AND ANNOYED.

THE ONLY REASON I KEPT ON READING WAS FOR AH! LI! AND SU! JING!!! YANG! FLUFF!!! BUT I COULDN'T KEEP READING AFTER THE WHOLE BIRTHING ARC SO I DON'T KNOW IF IT GET WORSE OR BETTER
