Rebirth of the Film Emperor’s Beloved Wife

Description

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

Su Yanyi: The president of Resplendent Entertainment, the legendary Entertainment Queen, and the support pillar every artist wanted.

She lost everything to one scheme, and only then did she realize that the man she had always treated with coldness and indifference was actually deeply in love with her. At the end of her life, she was left with endless, irreparable regret.

“If I am given another life, I will make every single person who owed me pay me back a hundredfold, and I will do everything within my power to ensure you a safe and happy life!”

Maybe her persistence was simply too impressive, because in the blink of an eye, she returned to a time three years ago and obtained a very special System—The Virtuous Wife System.

Was this telling her that she had been the Entertainment Queen for too long, so she should try something new and become a virtuous wife instead?

Qin Jiran: The new generation Film Emperor, handsome and domineering, a lofty male god in the eyes of countless fans.

In his entire life, he only ever loved Su Yanyi. It was a pity that she did not love him back, and even after three years of marriage together, it was all still just a contractual transaction to her.

“Yanyi, do we have to divorce?” Hidden within the man’s cold, hard expression was deep sorrow and despair.

In both her past life and her present life, their fates intertwined. Su Yanyi was reborn back to the day they were supposed to divorce.

Will she adhere to the choice she had made in her past life, or will she embark on a different path?

With the help of the Virtuous Wife System, the dense and stoic Su Yanyi set out to pamper her oblivious husband, stumbling over her own inexperience as she tried to convince him that no, he was not having auditory hallucinations, and no, she was not feeling ill!

Just, why was the first task —make him smile genuinely ten times— already so difficult?

Overall: If you have a tendency for prejudice and cannot tolerate a) Sensitive men and b) Powerful alpha females then this novel will go unappreciated by you. Don't bother with it and please don't leave more hate here. I will explain why below. I'm mainly addressing the points I do not agree with.
    • The relationship is not balanced. But if the roles were reversed, it would be another great overbearing CEO novel and nobody would complain. I'm actually quite speechless by how much hate this novel and especially the ML is getting. ML IS NOT A 'SISSY'. What? Being a sensitive man automatically makes you a sissy? Being shy is not 'manly'? Listening to your wife makes you a doormat? Yes, he is almost fanatically devoted to his wife. And he's insecure. But what is his damn backstory? He was an orphan. Abandoned by his father because illegitimate sons are stains in his view. Faced unfathomable pain to even grow up to his 20s. And then the woman he loved treated him with utter disdain and contempt because he agreed to enter a contract marriage with her. And you say he should confess after that? How? Is someone as cold as MC going to believe that he genuinely loved her? Heck, if it wasn't for the rebirth, she wouldn't even give him a chance. She'd still think he married her for benefits or trying to woo her for more of them.
    • The romance is slow in this one. Everyone keeps harping about how it's been 80 chapters, why is it so slow, he's a wuss. Is he even a man? I mean, how long has it been in the story? A few months? Years of damage and a lifetime of bad habits should be fixed automatically through what? Love? Please, it doesn't work that way. For someone who's had his heart broken so many times, a man who had to spend 3 whole years in a loveless fake marriage where the woman he loved basically didn't think of him even on the level of an employee, he's supposed to forget all of that and be ok with a few words from the MC? Why wouldn't an orphan with abandonment issues be cautious with the only person he loves in the whole world? Why wouldn't he try to be perfect and overcompensate? It isn't entirely the MC's fault. There are so many men who are not assertive in real life too and take so much damage from all this spiel about being 'manly'. I find him to be incredibly strong, loving and caring to MC. If I had a man like him love me so much, I would gladly cherish him. So what if he's a 'sissy'? Hmph! He becomes better with time and love. Their relationship slowly becomes equal. It hasn't yet become so. It's a gradual process as it should be. He's unyielding in some things too and starts teasing her, etc.
    • MC is a selfish hoe. Coming to the MC, even she wonders why he's clearly so assertive to everyone else but behaves like he's in front of a tyrant with her. She noticed that he is insecure and believes that he will get better once he slowly figures out that she liked him too. However, I admire her for not lying to him. She doesn't love him. She feels gratitude for him. But after interacting with him, she agrees to be pursued and see if she can fall in love with him. This shows how much respect she has for him. There's another point of hate that I genuinely do not understand. If it was a man sitting there and waiting for someone to finish cooking and give compliments after eating, would there be so many people complaining? It is so outrageously s*upid for people to hate on someone for not knowing how to cook and like someone else's cooking. She doesn't even do anything bad. She even runs to the kitchen, acts cute and enjoys anything he makes. But somehow, because she doesn't cook or helps in the kitchen, she's a selfish b*tch? Which century are we in? All these people complaining, I'm sure they're very virtuous in their real lives for saying so. Otherwise, it's so hypocritical to nitpick this way.
    • I'm pretty sure after reading a majority of the novel, that MC must be on the spectrum. Like, high-functioning autism or having savant syndrome or some such. Because she was clearly born in a loving, affluent family. It isn't a problem with the environment. So the only reason she could have the personality she has is because she was born that way. So, expecting someone like that to learn how to love someone when they don't even have the capacity to empathize like a normal human? MC is cold even to her family! Even her grandfather! She keeps mocking ML for being slow while being incredibly dense and slow herself! Expecting someone like that to become virtuous in a few months when she reluctantly figures out that she kinda sorta likes her husband? Have some realistic expectations please. Then you won't be so sorely disappointed.
    • MC's revenge is childish: Dear God. Where do I even start with this one? Should she eliminate 9 generations of her enemies' families for her revenge to fit the 'queen' scale? What even is that? She's vicious. But not excessively so. When she finds her enemy to lack IQ, she stops putting too much effort into it and enjoys her damn life because she rebirthed lol. I'm glad she's not consumed by revenge. And villains of this level are not worthy for much time to be invested in them either.
CONS: Is this novel without any bad points? No. It is too Mary Sue & Gary Stu-ish. The villains are basically paper villains. The fans and basically everyone loves them too much. It's annoying, but not overly so. I've come to expect it from Chinese entertainment novels. The system is not utilized to it's fullest potential. I felt it was a shame since it was such an interesting premise.

I will update this as I read more. I may change my review accordingly based on my position then.

I liked the idea since usually ML is the overbearing one while the female is the submissive one. This one is the opposite which I appreciate, however, it´s a bit too much. There´s no balance in their relationship. MC is a narcissist with an unattractive personality. I really dont know what all the reviewers are liking about her. She only loves herself.

ML always surrenders to MC, always trying to please her and giving his all (cooking her food everyday etc) while all MC has to do is tell him the... more>> food is delicious, reward him with a smile, and boom- suddenly it´s an equal relationship. No.

I found ML adorable first at how he pays so much attention to her, acting like a puppy and always trying to read her mood. But after 50 chapters gradually I found him pathetic and a sissy. If you like her then tell her. Waiting for someone to love you back for months is ok, but years?! The author went overboard on ML´s personality. It´s no longer cute, just sad. She is an iceberg, but that´s no reason to take someone for granted and give back only 1/5 of their love and thinking it´s enough and they should be grateful.

One things for sure, MC definitely definitely doesn´s deserve ML. <<less

The summary really reeled me in here, but this novel was just... off.

The setting was good, we've been equipped with characters with good background and decent plot to flow with, but it just did not flow. I felt that the author wanted to show the MC's gradual transformation from rigid heart to tsundere? It didn't quite work out well and just kind of dragged on. MC came out as really bratty and uncompromising needing everyone to bow to her. And while that's all well and good, we need balance and... more>> reciprocation in a good relationship.

ML was good. He was really very good that he'd sacrifice anything for a bit of attention MC would give him at the start of the story. We see that developing a bit more, but that tendency to be be so sacrificial and a bit of a doormat hasn't even been fixed this far in the story. Their relationship is so unbalanced.

The story in itself had a good potential that was not used to its maximum capacity. Also, I saw a lot of contradictions and things that made me want to tear my hair out.

Maybe the story will change later on, but as it is now it just made my soul tired. <<less

When I read the summary, it immediately hooked me. Second chances? Realizing ML's love only after her death? Dedicated ML? It's like longer version of the story Love Me Again, which is one of my favorite piece in novelupdates. I'm in!

As I read the first few chapters of RFEBE, I realized that the writing is not as emotionally wrenching as Love Me Again, but I was still hooked to see where things are going. The Virtuous wife system was interesting, and the ML was likeable, why not?

The more I continued... more>> to read, the more the MC's revenge came across as petty and childish, opposite to her Queen nickname. She's the total opposite of cool, but what kept me reading was the maturity and commendable effort she put into the relationship.

I read further, and suspension of disbelief began to fail me. I was expecting a good background story for the reason why ML is so devoted to MC, abnormally so, even when he was pretty much taken for granted in MC's previous life. I'm at chapter 73, and so far no explanations.

The final straw was the couple's Mary and Gary Sue-ness. Everything they do must look good and be envied on, everyone ooh-ed and aah-ed on the littlest thing they do. Everything the bad guy do will be bad, no matter how neutral or small it is, even showing sympathy (yes, there's a clear line between bad guys and good guys in this story, and you'll know it right away).

Even the ML's extreme devotion began to look weird to me:
Spoiler

- ML has ethical bottom line as far as revenge goes, but when it's related to MC, it's okay. Let's torture this person who's already hospitalized and most probably never walk normally on her feet again even more.

- MC implies to dislike someone, but never really explained why she disliked the person. ML and MC's family will all join the gang to bully that someone, all with this in mind: who MC dislikes must be a bad person! I understand the devotion, but MC is not God. Please be reasonable.

[collapse]
At this, they both hit my bottom line. I had to drop the story, simply because ML's devotedness reached my limit, especially when as far as I read, he does for no reason. Done! <<less

I enjoyed this novel a lot and read it all very quickly maybe because I was very tired of novels that is too “dramatic” as in where the main lead would meet with a lot of problems one after another. I feel that the novel is sweet and very cute.

Personally, I think novel is quite unique since although the female lead is cold in nature but when she expresses her love and thoughts to the male lead it is unexpected cute. The entire novel also explains their train of thought... more>> which always makes me smile, especially when it comes to the female lead’s train of thought. I felt some parts were very entertaining and I couldn’t help laughing by myself.

As I said earlier, the novel isn’t too dramatic in my opinion. This is where the female lead seeks revenge for the people who harm her in her past life or whoever that harms the female lead or the male lead in the present life. The revenge part is not really the main part of the novel. I think that the building of the female and male lead’s love, trust and character development is the main part of the novel. It really suits my current “needs” with novels currently which made me enjoyed it a lot.

I feel there’s quite a sufficient amount of character development where the main leads would grow differently based on trust, which is mainly a good thing for the female lead since she was really too cold in the beginning. And that’s why I found some parts entertaining too since she still tries to make an effort to change.

The translations I have read for the first few chapters are very good to me as it is similar to the raws. As for the raws, the only cons I feel is that there’s always typo errors in the vocabulary but then it does not affect the reading since it’s read in the same way.

All in all, I really recommend this novel to those seeking for novels that contains mainly the fluffy love. I would not recommend this novel if you are looking for a book that has a fantastic revenge plot. <<less

6 chapters in and I'm shooked!!!

This is one of the instances where I really really wish I can read the whole raw novel.

I love how the novel is a little bit different and unique from the others. We still get the same revenge, rebirth and romance genre, but a lot more thrilling and lovable.

And, I love how both the protagonists are uniquely awkward with each other.

The romance is sweet and funny, but the base of the story is not. The MC is portrayed as some kind of super-human model/banker/CO/martial artist/mafia heir, but still in her previous life fails to some low-level plot. This is especially weird because the MCs family is apparently a big number in the information broker business, and they fail to notice a plot to cripple their "queen"? What a bunch of amateurs.

In conclusion: The romance is nice to read, the misunderstandings are funny, but the author kills the golden goose by... more>> surrounding it with too much unbelievable bull-shit. 3/5 <<less

So far I've only read 11 chapters and I'm not exactly impressed. I don't think I've ever met a character (a female to boot) with a lower EQ than the heroine of this novel. Where exactly in her childhood did the film break for her to be that inhuman? Her family doesn't seem to on the stoic side, so what's up with this freezer like person? And her male counterpart is a complete wuzz and a total masochist. Who in the world would want to stay for three years in... more>> a loveless marriage where the wife says: "I will treat you well?" - he is not a dog little miss! You might as well just throw him a bone and say: "Go fetch, s*upid". <<less

This is unbelievably cute. ? the MC and the ML both have facial paralysis so the outcome of the MC trying to woo the ML is cutely unfruitful in the beginning.

Picture : your cold wife of three years decides not to divorce and instead is being.... Nice?

The ML is worried. Extremely worried. And the MC can't figure out what she us doing wrong. ?

Super cute and adorable! Usually we have cold ML with cute MC, but now we have cold MC that awkwardly trying to woo her husband with the help of Wife System. While MC doing her best, the ML keep thinking he need to check himself up at hospital because he thinks he got incurable auditory and illusionary halucination. I love their interaction, plus her family totally ship them.

At first it was good. But after the 50ish chapters, it's getting boring. I found myself pausing my reading or wanting to read another story a lot of times. Usually, when I'm interested in something, I would stay in the same page until I finish the story. It wasn't the case with this novel.

Like I said, to me this is very boring. I thought after the ML confession, their relationship would become a little bit more progressive. But, it was still the same. The MC was so dense and thought... more>> the ML's s*upid, while she herself never realised her shortcomings. I guess that is her ultimate characterization in this romance story that would somehow become some sort of comic relief (?). I don't kow, I'm not sure, however I would say that she is the female version of overbearing-cold-possessive-CEO trope that can be found in any other shoujo novels. But, that kind of CEO trope itself is slightly better than the MC, because they would at least grow to be romantic, while she's just.. uh.. I don't know how to say it, but I found her to be kind of irritating. By having the system, I didn't hope her to suddenly become a virtuous loving person, but rather hoped she would become more aware of her flaws and learn to be more tactful in dealing with people and emotions. Because from the beginning of the story, it was told that she is a very cold expressionless person. I thought this system will somehow help her to be less self-centered and realise that all this time she is actually not a quite normal person. However, until 80ish chapter, she's still pretty much the same as when she time-travelled in 1st chap. Well, she did try to get to know the ML, but it was more like due to accumulating points, completing missions and whatnot. She did grow to fond of the ML, but she never expressed it or expressed it implicitly in a cold manner. It also felt to me that her fondness is more like possessiveness towards an object, instead of a genuine like/love. She also wanted the ML to realise by himself that she liked him, but how can he knows if you keep acting like that?! Huft... With all this cold manners, sometimes petty childish behaviour of MC and also her dense sensibility, as the reader I can't help feeling emotionally frustated.

The ML too wasn't any better. At first, he was decent and I was eager to see what's he's going to do after his confession. There wasn't much that he's done, because he's inexperienced in dating and somehow shown (slowly in the story) to be sort of submissive to the MC. His inexperience is understandable, but this submissive attitude is kinda rubbed me in the wrong way. One of these is the part where he kept telling the MC he will do anything the MC told him no matter what. Well, once or twice, this would be very sweet. But every time they discussed things about their relationship or if he made a slight clumsy mistake (well, it was the ML who regarded it as mistakes, the MC didn't mind it at all), he would become wary and say this over and over again!! I mean, I get it. He got inferiority complex due to his past and current circumstances. But seriously..... Man Up! Also so far, the cause of his blind devotion towards her has never been explained clearly besides because of the sole reason that she was his love at first sight. It was too abnormal/too much for it being the so called 'love at first sight' that could make the ML devote himself so much to MC. I just found this reasoning as really uncreative, unbelievable and bland.

Feels like in this relationship, the ML has to give more compares to MC. While in a healthy relationship, it's supposed to be a balanced give-and-take between the two sides. Despite how some reviews said this story has realistic mature progression, I think if there's truly a relationship like this in real life, it would be so tiring for both of them. They wouldn't last long irl. But this is just my opinion, alright.

The further I read, I found this story is really not for me. The premise is really good, but the story itself is too boring, too slow and too tiring for my taste. Some readers would say the MC and ML are cute couple. Some would think like me. If you're interested or looking for a story with (kind of) reverse personality trope, I would say this is for you. But beware, the progress of the story is realllllyyyyy slow. <<less

At the first I like this novel.

However after MTLing, I come dissatisfied with the character development and plot.

MC is still too overbearing and given so much advantages from the system.

ML is such a great guy who loves MC so much, but I think he really shouldn't surrender to her everytime.

The relationship is too unbalance and not my cup of tea.

This novel would have worked better if the MC wasn't described as a superwoman in the corporate world. As it is, it is quite difficult to accept that such a professional, calculating and business savyy person could be so utterly clueless when it comes to personal relationships. The story talks about her regrets and wishes to change for the better, yet her behaviour after her rebirth/time travel has her stumbling around with the exact same personality that caused her so much grief. The things that changed drastically were the actual... more>> decisions she made.

So far, this isn't a story where a cold person making actual effort to be warm and kind and thus scaring the crap out of people; this is a story where a cold person who made the wrong choices still remain an iceberg but this time making the opposite decisions.

Still, it is still a decent read. Many of the usual suspects abound: the scheming enemy family, the irritating gossip media, business rivals etc... Perhaps a nice difference than the usual is the fact that the MC's family is actually kind and understanding to her. And they are powerful and influential to boot. <<less

MC is too self centered and her EQ is so low. ML and everyone else's behavior could be explained as a reaction to her past strictly proffesional cold self... ML's compliant nature is annoying though. But it makes sense, in a way, since he was the only one in love.

... more>>
Spoiler

I am annoyed at MC though, her character...

Lets put it this way, ML just have made headlines/scandal. She decided to have lunch date further flaming it. Then decided to repress the gossip even though there was evidences.

ML during said date asked what's up with her, though it made him crazy happy but he is rational enough to know that something is up. She said 'let the past bygones be bygones' WITHOUT APOLOGIZING AND WITHOUT EXPLAINING HER INTENT TO COURT. Cue dramatic, lengthy misunderstandings.

[collapse]

I will finish this, just for the ML.

Rating might change later.

Edit:

Spoiler

MC is really... Ah, she is not a bad egg just, her emotional development... I don't think she would ever understand someone else.

She treated ML well, but sometimes its borderline like she is treating a pet. Sure, she get revenge on those messing with him but its about right to call it her sense of possessiveness/jealousy as in 'He is mine, you can't take him or hurt him' but there is no love. As in romantic love. There is lust, yes, but there is no feeling genuine 'I want to do something for him' kind of feeling.

All she had done also was spurned by the mission.. just, read it. You might understand it better to read than reading this

[collapse]

Its like that. Though, I can't find it in me to hate her, I can't like her either. <<less

Wahhhhhh so fluffy~~~~ *ahem* *ahem*

I can't help myself not to read it all!! The air isn't heavy, its not too dramatic and although it is a generic rebirth but it is sooo U.N.I.Q.U.E!!!

First, the FL isn't too incline in vengeance. Although it will make the reader think, "is she really angry?", BUT there's a reason for that! And that is because of the system. I'm really enamoured because of this reason. She's really cute in expressing her feelings, the both of them. She wants revenge, that's noted but she's the... more>> type of 'dying is too lenient' people so what will happen? Thinking everything on how to make the Wangs suffer? Nope! Thanks to the system, the FL didn't go astray because the FL has to go on missions and that is the reason why the novel is not boring rather it is fluffy. The missions is very cute unlike other violent missions. The FL has a facial paralysis (lol) but her actions is so s*upid but her efforts is heartwarming although the reason is to do the mission but half of the reason is because she wants to treat him well.

The ML is not your typical over-bearing, heartless and possessive type. Outside he is the generic male lead of rebirth novels but inside he is just a cute shy boy, deeply in love with the FL but the selfless type. He also has the facial paralysis (lol). He misunderstood the FL often but there's also a reason for that and the way he misunderstood the FL is not annoying rather you will think that it's very reasonable. He's loyal to the FL and a very good cook. I can pictuce him as a puppy wagging its tail when he is alwayd with FL.

The mini theater is good too:

Film emperor husband: Wife.... are you sick?

Beloved wife:Ur the one who is sick. UR WHOLE FAMILY ARE SICK

Film emperor husband:... but my whole family consists of you

Beloved wife who have been indirectly called sick:...

And instead of being 'the man is capable, the wife is beautiful', it became 'the wife is capable and the husband is beautiful'.

Sooooo ccuuuttteeee!!!!!!

I recommend this for those people who craves rebirth novels but hates drama. <<less

So far so good. A refreshing read about a reverse-role of an overbearing female protagonist and a guy she sworn to "protect". Both having a face paralysis and zero romantic skills with lowest EQ possible, which contributed to giving a plenty of sweetness to smile as you read on.

I like how she gave not a second thought about how the others look at her for being with the ML, showing how much she cared about him even though she herself didn't realize it.

I... confess that ever since chapter 2, I've been imagining the MC as a domineering and territorial Maine Coon cat trying to woo her confused human hahahaha

So

I fell hard for this novel ever since the MC said: "Jiran, from now on, I'll treat you well."

It's definitely an unusual showbiz romance where the role-reversal is handled so beautifully. I like that for once, the female lead in a showbiz novel is a strong, no-nonsense girl who won't take anyone's bs. And the ML is the sweetest awkward bun, ever. I'm wondering... more>> which part of the ML is sissy, as other reviewers said -_-

Don't listen to them, they obliviously read too much chauvinistic novels on steroid lol. Boys can be sensitive and shy, too!

And now, as of Chapter 144, the cons of this story are

Spoiler

1. MC's attitude is getting worser. It was fun in the first and middle parts of the story, but it's unsettling when she's still so cold and harsh towards her children, I'm wondering if she might be sociopathic.

At one point, even her monologue said that she's fine if her parents take the children away, she doesn't care because she'd still have ML by her side. She rarely took care of them and began thinking of them as tools for completing missions. It's borderline child abandonment.

Her monologue I hated the most is: [What Su Yanyi does is to look at the children when she remembers, and then silently retracted her eyes with disgust.]

2. A side chara gets even more annoying

3. Her revenge towards the antagonists is overdone and tacky

4. One-month old babies that doesn't act like one-month old babies... They're so abnormal

5. Uncreative use of the system. Should've been a big idea for a few subplots. Rather than making the readers anticipate the full potential of the (very useful) system, if the author doesn't want to write about it they should've just make the system a normal one

6. Author's irresponsible advertising of rare and protected animals' trade (and also beast fighting arena). I get it, they're rich af. But this is the kind that is f*cked up. It's not fine just because they're rich

7. Oversimplification of foreigner side characters, as usual with CN authors who can't write about foreigners.
