Its quite fun but just some inconsistent part from start to end.

Like that ex-boyfriend of Yan Jin when xiao yu still a hamster. His so powerful and smart but hook by a scum? They are photograph in a hotel together but in some part media is so afraid of yan jin. How could it happen? 😅

And it stated to that MC is ML first love... Just hindered by xiao yu traitor friend so they never meet.

Plus Chu Ge had so many ex girl friend while his real gf in coma... more>> for 10years? 😅 how is it acceptable? The girl just accept it like that?

It is fun but a little disappointed and so many plot hole along the way.

Well positive side is I really enjoyed this story. So fluppy. So sweet. So meng. 🥰😍💯

You will never regret reading it.👌💯💘 <<less

It was funny alright??hahaha with our MC adventure as a hamster and knowing about the ML. You will also be irritated with fake/copycuts person. There is so much going on with ML's life and mysteries. The story is slow and give hints here and there. ML is really caring about his hamster because the pets he used to have dont live long.

With regards to MC getting a tablet.... Read the story guys hahahaha it's just a coincidence &that MC got a random Ipod from ML. ML needs all the genuine... more>> love huhu Fighting for our MC too regarding his works!

It was already laid on the story the flaws of our couple. Take note too- on how they grew up and the people around them.

You will eventually see that the charas are not perfect. MC is easily deceived. ML really has a cold attitude and he has some special powers contributing the fact he can sense people emotions/ animals. How did he got it?

Spoiler

he is from an experiment from Nan /He or Yan family in the past

[collapse]

MC can become a Hamster why??
Spoiler

that's the ancestral genes of Xiao family that will awaken due to needed circumstances

[collapse]

MC got a disciple called Nan wei ahhaha due to circumstances and congrats to that sweet childhood friend who finally got a name after 120 chap?? <<less

My brother recently got 2 pair of winter white dwarf hamster. I especially love one of them; fat, cuddly, friendly and the most cutest of them all. He's also grey... When I read back to the 1st Chapter, I'm kinda mad at the lady for abandoning "him" outside when "Predators" would love a bite of "him"?. I'm aware it's fictional, but the thought of it and looking at my lovely Lil hammy... Nope still sad..

Anyway, as always great translation and good story but gave a 4 star because of the... more>> storyline gets a little draggy at point. Still good read for if you really ran out of novels to read.

Thank you for your great effort in bringing this story to light? <<less

A solid 3. 1 star for hamster pics

The story is cute for around 60% of the novel. Then it goes downhill. Almost gave up a couple of times. Sigh...

There was so much unnecessary stuff added at the end......

... more>>
Spoiler

What cat clan, gene project... Ugh. Ridiculous. I never really understood which big family that super hacker was from. I find it hard to believe that ML did not destroy MC's senior after what he did. ML's mother was from Du family. Father is Yan. Then who is the Gabriel family. Is that the "English name"? I am confused.

[collapse]

Enjoy the fluff in the first half. Second half is tedious. <<less

Love the story, hamster life adorable and human life still keeps it interesting.

ML does lie a lot (cuz he wants MC to not hate him) ML hasn't done anything bad but has some history he told later to MC who accepted him.

Some parts felt rushed and would have liked more detail on (especially his old workplace) but overall good stuff. MC and ML are like made to be together:
Spoiler

ML named hamster MCs nickname without knowing which was very convenient for MC.
ML had a crush on MC (cuz of his work) since university. ML grandfather was also a designer who MC trained under so his style was similar for ML to want to find him.
MC's aunt who took care of him was a scientist that was working on childbirth through a lab which ML was born in so they knew each other right away.
A bunch of stuff links them together which I find pretty cool

[collapse]

Spoiler

Also what I really curious about is what would have happened to MC if ML didn't figure out he's a hamster cuz before he turned back, his human body was in an accident with ML killing his hamster body (which caused him to swap back to human). Cuz of hamster death ML was mad at MC and was slowly ruining his life getting him fired and preventing him from working anywhere else while getting his lawyer to get 30mil out of MC who everyone knew didn't have that much so MC would have gone to prison and ML would have probably tried to get him into the worst kind. It's also lucky that ML figured it out when he did cuz MC old rival was gonna kidnap him to kill him or something but cuz ML figured it out just in time MC was saved. But I'm still hung up about what ML was doing and how would things turn out if he found out MC was hamster months later when MC either at his lowest of even dead.

it’s so cute!!! And the translations r good (plus rlly cute hamster pics lol).

Spoiler

my only qualm is how quick they accepted that he turned into a hamster and specifically the hamster that the ML took care of and loved so much (which also I found strange) and I don’t think it was ever explained how the ML could understand animals?? Maybe I didn’t read carefully though

[collapse]

suspension of disbelief aside, very cute story!

This novel is.... very fluffy. The MC is adorable and silly; in a lovable way. ML is also cute. I mean, who gives a hamster an iPad? Anyways, I believe I just got to when Fishy was turned back into a human. So, naturally, I can’t really say anything about the MC intelligence once he got transformed back. If his IQ really turned into, as another reviewer stated, “100 to 0”, then I wouldn’t know. BUT, the beginning of this novel, at the very least, you should read! For Fishy’s... more>> sake, won’t you? <<less

It's a cute, fluffy series.

Gave it four stars since I don't like the ML's action,
Spoiler

especially after MC become human again

[collapse]
He's basically the embodiment of bad boss you should avoid, but the author write it off as comedy and it's all ok because it's male lead, and male lead are overbearing, right? I dislike the overbearing, manipulative, black belied ML trope. He's just too horrible to both MC and his employees

The story is well paced and doesn't leave the readers bored, always pulling the readers to want to know what happens next (with all them cliffhangers *cough*). The interaction between the MC and ML are very cute and they don't start at the beginning liking each other as some stories have it, their bond builds as they spend more time and interact with each other. The author and beautiful translator (WHO IS A MIRACLE!) has done a wonderful job of being able to evoke sympathy and sometimes wanting to make... more>> the reader cry at the events that occur in the story. (Not even mentioning the events that cause the readers to blow their lid off and want to shake a certain something and smack them down.)

I would highly recommend the story to those who want a slice of life but still in the realm of supernatural. There is also many fluff scene between the XY (MC) and YJ (ML), not to say that it is smooth sailing all the way as there are some mishaps and irking situations in the story. Unfortunately for some rotten women... It's tagged as 'Shounen Ai' so be prepared to just get soft soft soft love. <<less

it's okay but still thinking who was shao yue's partner. I'm thinking of someone but chue ge implied that it was someone from HR and denied the one I'm thinking about.

anyways full of fluff and the twist and turns are to my liking, someone said the opponents are dumb well kinda agree with that but they were like c*ckroaches indeed, was hoping to know what happen to ML's mother but she prolly won't be better with her family being full of schemes. Rotten to the core.

Also not sure if I... more>> read to fast and got confused, Chu ge is from that family and he and ML our cousin, ML's mother is the daughter of that family but what's with the different surname and back from the story ML's mother went back to her family and cried to them (I'm MTLing so maybe some details are jumbled) and may have been the reason why the project was halt.

So most prolly the Grand mother is a daughter of that family and the husband is Du that's the reason Mother's last name was different. Well just rambling lol. <<less

Was enjoying it at first but it slowly went downhill as it got more serious and the problems in the author’s writing were magnified.

Pros: lots of fluff, some funny moments.

Cons: many plot points are dropped or not fully fleshed out, a lot of things don’t make sense or are very unrealistic, everybody and their mother turns out to be the heir of a rich family or a genius. Sooo many coincidences, everyone is connected somehow. Also the plot is just boring tbh, they find some stuff out but nothing actually... more>> happens and nothing is resolved, the status quo is kept.

Some dropped plot points I remember off the top of my head:
Spoiler

the truth about the MC’s family and his father. The He family, I think - mentioned once during an important conversation and never again? Why his teacher left SI and why SI was against his student, the MC. Why the girl in the coma had an accident. The incident that caused Chu ge to leave his family. The ML’s fight against the Yan family. If MC’s senior was the one to cut the brakes or if it was his mysterious backer (he later teams up with Nan Chan, but she wouldn’t have motivation at the time of the crash?) And so many more..

[collapse]
So much stuff is just mentioned once randomly, like it was put in just for the sake of it.

The MC is supposed to be a genius designer but after the first few instances there’s always someone putting in a good word for him or using their connections to help him instead of him earning these with his own strength. Like when
Spoiler

a collaboration happens with the world’s most famous designer and the narration outright says that it only happened not because of the MC’s talent, but because the ML used all of his connections to make it happen??

[collapse]

MC is okay, oblivious and he really has a habit of just accepting that people are shitheads and not doing anything about it. And ignoring when the people around him have terrible morals lol.
Spoiler

Also he literally had tons of moments where he would have evidence about his senior’s plagiarism, all it would take was a screenshot or two, but instead he just yells and tries to punch the guy?

[collapse]

A lot of the industry stuff is contrived, not at all how things actually happen, which was disappointing as I would love to read more stories about designers.

The male lead is disappointing. He’s a pet s*ave who will spoil his pets and build them entire playrooms but a bunch of his previous pets died and it’s noted that he’s actually a horrible pet owner. The MC thinks that he would have died a couple of times if he was a regular hamster that wasn’t magical. How is the first thing you do when you get a pet not looking up what’s dangerous for them and how they should be treated??

As a boyfriend, he moves fast when they haven’t known each other as humans for very long and keeps a lot of things from the MC because he thinks the MC doesn’t need to know, even lying straight to his face.

Also there are numerous instances where he harms regular people, some of them being innocent, the most clear incident being
Spoiler

against the MC himself- when the MC was clearly innocent due to the brake malfunction, ML tried threatening him into saying he did it on a competitor’s orders, saddled him with a 30 million debt, taking him to court, (does he not have premium insurance on his expensive car?) and blacklisting him from the entire industry. MC even thinks that most regular people would have committed su*cide at this point, he just had the hope from being the hamster pet. Not to mention when MC confronts him about the plagiarism and he protects Mr. Mystery, even mentioning it as a selling point that he protects those he loves even if they’re wrong.

[collapse]

Anyways, if you like stories where people throw away morals and ethics when it comes to those they love, this is for you.

I’m gonna go look for some stories where people actually have professional ethics and build their careers through struggle and hard work ~

Kudos for the fantastic translation. <<less

First off, this novel is completed, dunno why the links are incomplete.

Now to summarize this novel and literally every comment in this review section;

Awesome, amazing story with loads of fluff and cute, witty hamster interactions until MC gets his body back. After that the novel is sh*t :)

I agree with literally everyone of these comments btw, author should have stopped at giving MC his body and happy ending cause he messed everything up afterwards. But overall I'd still suggest to read this novel cause until the mess starts, it's... more>> a gem. <<less

Spoiler

the MC turned into a human again

[collapse]
around chapter 100.

The MC became s*upid, naive, bratty, spoiled. The only good point of him is that he is a good designer. Other than that? He is suck. He goes blind with everything else and just depended on the gong. He doesn't care being lied by the gong. If I am in his position I wouldn't want to get fooled by the gong. Even if it's a white lie.

Seriously this kind of overbearing president is becoming a boring plotline for me. And considering I didn't read that much of danmei.

And for those people who doesn't like description of a detailed settings or detailed jewelry I wouldn't recommend this. I skipped all the description of the place and the jewelry designs. And because the theme is jewelry business, it has A LOT of it. Well author from China has always put a lot of unnecessary description into their story because of how their story is being commissioned. They commissioned based on how many words the story has. <<less

I can't with the MC! How can he result to harming himself (the human him) like that while he know how much he suffer in his last life because of this.
Him wanting to take revenge from Lin Zhou doesn't give him the excuse to hurt himself like that and then sit and cry about how he was hurt in last life as it's him who are hurting himself! He should choose another way, even if to try to reveal somthings to the human him as sort of protection, even... more>> if he know that the human him won't believe this immediately, he can try once and two and three times untill at least make him be aware of what is going on with Lin Zhou behind him. <<less

Such a cute story. So far as what I've read, this novel has a light and warm tone (since this focused on pet). Each chapter isn't a bore. MC and ML's interactions are really, really cute and their interactions with other supporting characters (aside from the antagonists) are hilarious. Translation quality: thumbs up.

This was so good until the hamster episode. I loved the sassy little hamster and his interactions and pet s*ave male lead I couldn’t put down the novel I was obsessed and then he switched back to human and all that sassiness evaporated and left me with boring soggy chapters I had to take a break. I am miffed that the couldn’t keep up the momentum.

I can only say I really have enjoyed this book thus far.

I love how cute and absolutely blonde MC is and how ML just wants to protect him from all negativity after he goes back to being human. My favorite character is definitely Chu Ge, smart and tragic all at once. I really hope to see the rest of the translation soon and THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK?❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The story is very cute! But I'm kinda lowkey hating the slow paced of the story. I'm just so excited to find out if the MC would turn to a human or nah.

Anyway this review was supposed to be 5 stars but I can't seem to find a way to edit the stars or even delete a review.

I still have a question. So who is the bigshot behind Lin Zhou back?

And in my opinion regarding hamster xiaoyu (fishy) and human xiaoyu I guess it's kind of loop. The mysterious designer is nobody but Xiao Yu in the first place. There is not any mystery designer at all. Mystery Designer born because of Fishy knowledge about future human Xiao Yu, and repeat. Who knows what is the starting point of this?

But again, this loop's plot is only my opinion since the story didn't tell us the detail. I... more>> got an idea about the loop kind of plot cos of korean novel called Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. You should try it HAHAHA.

I kind of dislike how naive and foolish Xiao Yu is, and how manipulative ML is sometimes, sigh. Like after Xiao Yu became a human again (when Yan Jin doesn't know that Xiao Yu is Fishy), Yan Jin attitude of shutting Xiao Yu from the world is really cruel. I hate him so much at that time. And Xiao Yu didn't even got suspicious at Yan Jin! He thought that the lawyer and cyber bullying is the bad one. He never know that behind all of those is Yan Jin, and Yan Jin didn't tell him and let him misunderstand. I'm so dissapointed. And it tooks so much time for Xiao Yu to know and understand what the heck is happening with Ya Jin circumstances (like Yan Family, Nan Family, Chu Ge, Nan Wei, etc). He will got fooled first and get to know the fact one by one casually, smh. It's good that he's not really care about it.

It's 14 chapters left, will Yan Jin ever tell Xiao Yu what's happened with Yan Family and He family 20 years ago? Will YJ tell XY that he's (YJ) the successful gene experiment? I hope so, really. For god's sake they're married already. If Yan Jin still had the gut to lying and covering things in front of his beloved, even when his mother in law (XY's stepmother) already tell YJ to promise to tell XY everything. I am done with Yan Jin.

Recomended...... I guess. It's fluffy, yes. But to me Club Raising Association, Daily Raising of a Wealthy Woof, and Lazy Merchant is more fluffy than this. Yes this is cute, the interaction between Fishy and Yan Jin indeed cute. But imo it's still lacking, like somehow too illogical haha. Oh yes, it's because Fishy is too human like when he is a hamster I guess? But that's not it. I just feel something is lacking with the fluff interaction. I don't know what though, forget it haha <<less
