I enjoyed the novel, unexpected characters show up and give me more reason to wonder where can I continue to read??????

I've seen people completed this novel and here I am wondering how things had turned out.

The Main Character is honestly the best, I love his strong personality and his Male Leads are very, very, interesting. Although I do not like them at first, but seems like they are quite the character and are very opposite to the man they love (Tang Feng)

Spoiler

I'm having my doubts on Charles in the last chapter, I really can't see him as loyal (I'm trying to understand him) and I'm wondering if his 5 minutes talk would be him banging Ivan (which I hope not cause I would Yeet him off the place)

OMG best BL Harem novel !! I love the MC! He is not your typical girly weak uke. He is independent, rational, calm, and strives to be on top. He's just like Ming Yu from the novel Rebirth of a Supermodel. These two seriously could be best buddies xD

... more>>
Spoiler

MC ends up with 4 ML (s) so yeah its foursome guys xD I like Charles more though (Cute clingy Kaola) and I also like the other guy called Chen Ming Xu but too bad he is not included in the harem. Sigh what a waste of Tsundere character >w<

Our MC is always calm and collected bc of past life's circumstances but that one chapter where one of the ML's r*ped him was nothing to laugh about, I think even the most calm person would definetly feel frieked out when you, a guy, got r*ped. But okay, i'll let that one slide.

So far so good, the smut scenes are good but few since it focuses on emotions and how our Tang Tang pick up his harem.

I'm expecting more on how will Gino's character will develop and how it will... more>> end up for him since his family is "religious" and sh*t like that.

What I'm most anticipating is how Albert will take away his "Esmeralda" and what will be our Tang Tang's reaction when little Annie's mask comes off.

About Lu Tian Cheng's character, I don't feel right when it comes to him since he rarely express his feelings and the time he got to spend with our Tang Tang is little but I'm quite sure that he'll develop into a fine char., since he's starting to express more of himself to our Tang Tang, it's just that Cheng-ge's setting is cold so I can't feel it right away. But it's good.

To Charles, the tamed big brown bear, it was enjoyable reading his time with our Tang Tang and he's the one who knows more about our Tang Tang since "living together" cultivated their feelings more.

And to our dear MC, Tang Feng, I hope his character would open up. My baby learned how to hide his feelings ba!

PS: f*ck you harvey. <<less

I don't know why the other people gave this novel 1 to 3 stars but for me I'll give it the complete stars it deserved. The MC is very likable one of the best MCs out there in a BL novel! He is very clear minded, clever and sticks to reality. The author really did a great job making the readers understand the actions of MC and MLs.

Btw, to those who dont want to read it because of harem and r*pe tag pls read this. There is an explanation for... more>> everything and later on the story, the Mls are really sweet and very caring to the MC. They are all so precious??? <<less

I absolutely love this story. Its amazing how quickly the MC adapts to whatever situation he is placed on and how clever he is in making almost everything go his way. Most of the characters are likable and the flow of the story is well done. I'm excited to read more on how he would rise back to the top in a different body and how the various guys chasing after him would do.

There aren't many stories with yaoi and harem tags put together (and I wish there were more... more>> though) but I'm truly happy to have found this and read it. <<less

MC is a very realistic person, considering his background and experiences. He has emotions, values, and his own unique way of thinking.

For those that don't agree, they haven't read far enough/understood his character enough.

I truly appreciate the character-building of the MC and the dynamic interactions between him and everyone else as I feel that is the strongest element in this novel.

The MC is the typical "proven" brilliant person who has a rebirth opportunity: calm, indifferent, focusing on career and attracting a lot of males/females without doing much.

It's quite nice for a light, fun read. Not much tense and you will see an MC who is very mature and self-controlled in handling situations (no wonder considering his actual age haha).

Reading this still left me with a good feeling. I stopped reading because harem is not for me (well, at least I tried) :)

I have thoroughly enjoyed this. And safe to say this book would definitely be on my to-reread shelf.

I like the maturity and sensibility shown by Tang Feng (protagonist). He is such a level headed and clever person. At times manipulative as well. His powerful lovers are no match to him. Tang Feng sure lead them by the nose. That's the funnest part.

Another element I love about the story is the interesting characters created by the author. Each have their story and unique personality. It is also fun watching the interactions... more>> between Tang Feng and his lovers and also his lovers' interactions with each other. Because they are all trying hard to get into Tang Feng's pants, lots of amusing things as well as dangerous adventures happened.

Tang Feng is a steadfast and hardworking actor trying to make it big in the dog-eat-dog entertainment industry. Needless to say he encountered lots of unpleasant incidents along the way. I enjoyed following Tang Feng's growth as an actor and a reborn person. I like how he stays true to himself and does not easily bow to pressure.

There are stories within this story. Mostly stories of films Tang Feng acted in. I think it's included to show us Tang Feng's ability as a talented and dedicated actor. Some of those stories are pretty interesting as well. I read this book in Chinese but if you are interested, there is a fan translation in English over here;. But the translation is still ongoing though.

By the way if I am to choose amongst Tang Feng's lovers, I would pick Lu Tian Chen. So who would you pick?

The MC is very mature and intelligent (as in, he makes logical decisions to make the best out of the situation he's in, so you don't feel like screaming at him for being dumb). It's also funny sometimes because he can be too mature--he's older in soul as well so sometimes the love interests seem like brats to him. I personally love his mature temperament a lot; when he was dealing with the original body's mess, he had no choice but to relent (... more>>
Spoiler

agree to a s*x contract, basically

[collapse]
) but once it's not needed for his survival in the new world he pulled himself out of the disadvantageous position immediately. He's very clear about what he can or cannot do, and doesn't dive head first into something he can't handle.

Spoiler

Personal favorite scene: when one of the ML confessed, MC despite being somewhat fond of him, rejected him on the basis that ML is currently in a position of power over him and has done things to him he cannot yet forgive (selling him (or rather, the original body) to that s*x contract), and must work to gain his trust. I.e. MC is open to the possibility of getting together, as long as ML courts him seriously and they can have a balanced relationship.

....

Seriously, it's so rare to see a protagonist that respects themselves more than they love their ML. There are novels that have the MC starting out like this, but often they later make concessions for the ML because of love. In this novel, the MLs are the ones that need to grow out of their childish, egotistical nature to capture our MC's heart.

ngl, the MLs leave a lot to be desired. Some of them have their good moments, but most of the time they're, as the MC sees them, egotistical brats. But at the same time, they seem to show the aforementioned character growth, simply because the MC would never look at them as potential lovers without it. So there's hope that we'll end up with great characters by the end.

The story is not overly dramatic, so it's a nice read. Although, fair warning: it can drag a bit. <<less

If you dont want to read a BL novel because of explicit narratives, I recommend you to read this novel. It is a sweet and warm novel. The protagonist is having his own harem without him knowing it (blame it to his high intelligence). And be amazed on how the author loves Robert Downey Jr as the character reference :D

This story isn't that much good, but the love complex between main characters is a lot interesting and alluring. Beside, who can't admire and envious of person like Tang Feng, who knew everything and care none but stand in the hall of fame. He is the most ideal who most people want to be. Since lovable to read, fulff and cheesy, My CHOICE <3

Aaaaaaaaahhhhh. I like this soooooo much.......

*ahem* So anyways, let’s get started.

True Star is a beautiful cluster of things BL. The MC is a beautiful cluster of individuality, talents, wittiness, and emotional fortitude. Although the fact that he acts and keeps himself calm all the time because of his heart disease do get too convenient sometimes but it doesn’t get overly ridiculous, imo. He wakes up after death, in another body, and get drugged and r*ped on the first day. “All is fine as long as I can enjoy the bath... more>> with TV” is his kind of reaction. Oh don’t get it wrong, he doesn’t sell himself. He develops this attitude at first because he has no support from anyone except the man he’s being forced to sleep with, Charles. He can’t get out of this situation so he calmly follows the flow and analyze his position. This may seem cheap but that was the best choices anyone could make, imo. It’s also so very satisfying to find that very man falls in love so deeply. He turns a bit annoying though but worry not, there’s another guy, his boss. The boss, Lu Tian Chen, at first, hates the original persona to the core. He detested him, u can say. He was also the one who sold the original to Charles in the first place. After he interacts with the MC for multiple instances, he takes an interest and starts falling in love too. This happens when the MC gets out of “having to sleep with Charles for a month” situation. The boss takes him in and granted, he falls. Unlike Charles who is overly passionate, he is rational and self restraint.
Spoiler

To this last east update, he hadn’t had s*x with the MC yet, although he does try to but to no avail as the MC firmly rejects the idea of sleeping with his boss.

[collapse]
He cares a great deal about the MC and doesn’t keep a grudge as he accept the new MC and decided to support him regardless of whatever happened in the past. He is a man that doesn’t let his emotions get too much of him and his business. On the other hand, Charles is devoted, passionate, and obsessive to the core. Both of them are possessive and loving and are a bundle of walking pheromones. They officially become mc’s male repellant so as to keep others from getting close to him, lol. The way they share and divide the mc’s love is hilarious but personally I prefer the boss over Charles. There’s also another possible candidate too but he’s not getting too far (because of the 2 bodyguards). Honestly, a lot of people complain that this is all just s*x. It’s true, there’s a lot of s*x. But there’s also a lot of infatuation and this is more of an adult love rather than fluffy or light BL actions. I wouldn’t want it to change.

The story also gives a focus to the drama behind the celebrity world and I have to admit, it was very enjoyable. I do not know if it is realistic or not, as I am not a celebrity and am in no way connected to them, but I still enjoyed the angst regardless. I felt like “Hey it’s actually interesting if the real world is actually this way”. It’s just an interesting viewpoint of celebrities and rich people. Not only that, this has been slightly turning towards a more dangerous side of things like the underground world and I would love to see more. It’s gonna be much more exciting if that happens is how I feel.

The characters may not seem likable for certain readers but they have developed personalities and individuality. They have different viewpoints and different priorities and that’s beautiful. The plot is exciting and keeps at a regular pace. The romance is not too slow but not too fast. The MC is op and a massive combo of delicious. The side characters do need a little more complexity.

Just go and read it because it was honestly better than I expected and I just love the MC, freaking queen uke getting all these favorite types of possessive semes. There’s both hot sexy actions and light subtle touches and whispers of love. It’s gonna satisfy the yaoi selves and those looking for an interesting enough plot line. <<less

To those people who are not into Boy's Love, this novel is still a very good read. Unlike other yaoi novels this doesn't really focus on the s*xual acts but rather on the character development of the protagonist and everyone around him. I like how the protagonist is strong minded and calm which reflects his actual age. Although in later chapters there are times that I find that the protagonist's personality is inconsistent.

I also would like to commend how the author slightly deviated from the usual transmigration by having... more>> Fiennes acknowledge the important role of the original owner of the body, Feng Tan by wholeheartedly assuming his identity. I find it dislikeable when the original owners in transmigration/ reincarnation stories are just thrown away into the tr*sh bin and incinerated when the MC takes a full attitude change. This is displayed by how the protagonist refers to himself as Feng Tan and not Fiennes. On the other hand the romance, in the side of the MC is still a mystery to me. <<less

This has to be one of the more well written novels I have ever read. The plot flows very well. Characters are interesting especially the main Feinnes-Tang. His calm and collected characteristics are what I think makes this unique and the better read compare to other novels.
Spoiler

There are multiple semes in this novel and each of them are quite interesting in personality and their back-story. The only thing that disappoint me (just a bit) is that Tang relationship with the semes are very open. Since I’m more of a OTP kinda person it did give me slight disappointment but the over all plot and characters make up for it all. XD

This novel is a very good read! Give it a try and don’t miss out on it!

I feel mixed. I can't honestly give it a rating but that itself should be a sign. It's written very well, specifically the translator (Nannyn) did an amazing job. I loved the MC but man I haven't fallen for any of the MLs yet. I know there's gonna be character development but dayum I really dislike where some things are going. I guess it's not for everyone. I'd still recommend it.

I just don't love or strongly hate the characters. At the same time, I'm not particularly attached to any of... more>> them except the MC. Also this sounds cheap but for some reason I was looking for more dogblood haha <<less

Oh this will be a long review for reading 300+chapters. I will gladly do this. First I read the 2nd harem novel by the author before this one. I rather glad that I did because the quality of the first me fail in comparison to this one it was like heaven and Earth. The harem members over there are a joke compare to the ones here. It seems like they were 2nd generation pro type cheap batch goods trying to copy the the ori ginals.

Tang Feng he's so mature and... more>> using his acting in different situations. He has a strong will toward life because of his previous life has ended. He wants alot but you can't called him greedy because of his past. He takes the best out of situations. He will not suffer when he has the choice to enjoy with what's being presented. I like his mindset, this was acceptable because of his experiences, you know it maybe different it were some holy mary virg*n young pup put in his situations. The whole acting thing wasn't really as the main focus in the novel. Tang Feng is already a great actor with large foundation, his skills are impeccable. Any movies he acts would go big. His enemies are minor background characters which is not threat whatever. The biggest thing is his harem members and what's they do and how it threatens Tang Feng's life and how each of them put him in these situations where he had to grit his teeth and confront them. Therefore includes alot of crime lords, luxury boats, weapon smuggling, money laundering. Oh the police here are absolute useless here, especially the one who roll into the sheets with one of the harem members and is obsessed that he almost kill Tang Feng and that harem member. Speaking of the harem members they all started out as sexy hot, crazy, screwing men and women left and right bastards. Hey but they are the main attractions in this story. I will describe in the order of preference.

1.
Spoiler

Charles wasn't going to be my number 1 till later he really show me. They did not started well with Charles drugging Tang Feng and r*ped him. Then came the 1 month period living with him that he fell in love and became a a stalker. First he acted like this gentleman sweet lover gradually turn into this sticky, dumb funny, loving bear. The things he says when transforms had me laughing left and right. Then came to one time when Tang Feng really was angry with being lied to because they have to fight Lu Tian Chen's dad. He lied naked on the bed and offered his bu*t with pink ribbons to Tang Feng so he can do it him quench his anger! I am like this guy you have won! To go this far hahaha who can beat you seriously. He's so funny and you can't help but feel warm with the things he says, He also very smart and be productive when it comes to work. It was really difficult to choose who was the number 1 between him and Lu Tian Chen

[collapse]

2.
Spoiler

Lu Tian Chen, the one who send Tang Chen off to Charles bed in the first place, always has a cold face and you can't tell what's he's thinking. I also hated him in the beginning like our MC. He knew the original Tang Feng was commiting su*cide but he was didn't care and think just give him what he wants. Later we actually find out his was actually a sweet guy, had a different family background. He was the only one who knows MC's real identity and knows the most about MC. He did the sweetest thing on MC's birthday with fireworks and console him with he needed the most. He is the emotional support Tang Feng always needs, he so understanding. Though I was not happy during the middle period when he rejected Tang Feng's idea of them all get together or they all break up. He said no for a good reason but why can't he just tell Tang Feng the reason, if he knows he can atleast know why and would wait for him. All those suffering was nothing. Guess when you're smart and having everything, emotions about love is always lacking sometimes

[collapse]

3.
Spoiler

Albert, help with Albert, he's too mysterious. I don't know what he wants even till I finish the novel, hes mood change with a snap. In the beginning he potrayed at this monster who breaks people into parts after doing them. Like the evil crazy boss. We still believed when the whole luxury ship case happened. Later he tone it down and you feel less scared and gradually accept him as on Tang Feng's side. But you feel his very distanced and novel, like a mystical being and doesn't know what he really feels he never shows. All we know he loves Tang Feng by the end

[collapse]

Spoiler

Gino, sigh most disappointed in him. He wasn't in the harem in the end but could count as early one.I had high hopes for him because of his past history with Tang Feng in his last time. We even feel it was going somewhere with the more we find out about his feelings. But nope, he was shown the door between the difference of the other 3 and him and he gave up almost immediately. I want to see Tang Feng with some fresh flowers ahem, the other novel had MC going with his nephew and young police officer. Gino just couldn't do anything against the wall of other 3, he was shut out and became just a friend. There was no route for him to go, the most promising turned into bitter disappointment. Tang Feng might've accepted if he atleast tried harder.

[collapse]

I wish we had more of Assassin number 1 our handsome photograph guy x President Su, hehe, President Su doing so many evils and end up being topped over and getting addicted. I want more out of that, when one lion get top over by a stronger predator the thrill wow.

Also baby little devil 3, wish someone would take him in too. I thought he would get with Tang Feng's best friend in this life. They are a good match.

Read this for those harem lovers and read it for their adventures together and gang fights and how our amazing MC turn these strong tyrannical bosses with different personalities into his little honey bees that wound't let him go no matter what. (Last complaint! Where was my 3some huh author, I anticipated and came away hungry humph!) <<less

I gotta say that Albert is a difficult character that if its not MC, I think he'll never find his solitude hahahaha

I love MC haha he's so chill about everything lol which is reasoned well as he have to always remain calm because of his heart condition

I still have lingering hate towards Harvey lol, gosh the way he broke up with Fiennes in past is really unacceptable. Like really? Through a text message? And right after he learned that his time is almost up? And you got married right away? That's so f*cking painful for Fiennes. He leave him at the time Fiennes needed him the most! He deserve his regrets and guilts now lol

Anyway Fiennes is happy and pampered now as Tang Feng

just finished this novel.

4 stars for the storyline.

2 stars for smut..... (no mouthwatering graphic details which were truly heartbreaking)

... more>> 3 ML's after one MC wow... and all three ML's extremely hot/good looking/black belly

I liked Charles most... such a funny cute loveable character....

If you guys looking for a good story to read then go for this novel.

The last volume was kind of dragged on which was boring. I skipped or skimmed few last chapters.

I didn't like the concept of sharing MCs with the rest of ML's and that too with the consent of all 4 well everyone has their own choices so don't take my dislike seriously.

Happy Reading <<less
