Strongly Pampered Male Wife

Description

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

How long would a marriage be able to sustain itself when it had nothing to do with love? Then how would a marriage based merely on power and a monetary transaction be able to last?

The person in Shang Yushang’s embrace was his male wife. A temporary wife that was bought to get rid of bad luck. But ever since the moment he had this person in his arms, he decided not to let go of him.

He Changning obeyed his so-called family’s decision and married himself off. Thinking that, when this transaction was over, he can live his own life happily ever after. But, little did he know that he had just stepped into a big net filled with warmth that was specially woven for him, and that he would never have a chance to get out of it.

4.5 /5 - pretty much a braindead story where the MC got strongly pampered by ML. If you compared this novel with others (with the same trope) this one is pretty good 👍🏿 the story is well constructed so you don't feel like you just reading some nonsensical shit

I ACTUALLY REALLY WANT TO READ A CONTINUATION ABOUT THEIR KIDS, BCS I THINK THEY'RE CUTEEE. I want more interaction between MC & ML with their kids. And the last extra is so unnecessary, I don't really care about xiaowu. I care more about the doctor and his lover tbh

4.5/5!

Really don't understand low rating... This is a wonderful and satisfying read!! And translation is very good. Recommend if you love (or don't mind) mpreg.

Super sweet, super rich, doting ML who treats MC as his biggest treasure. Dialogue between CP are very good in comparison to many other novels especially in beginning.

A couple that does communicate??? Yes! They immediately tackle any possible misunderstandings early on. There is so much love, caring and trust between them from the beginning. ML is really, really overprotective. CP are a power couple that are... more>> super rich like in many novels.

Only somewhere in the middle does all the pampering seem a bit too much due to lack of other interesting developments but that only lasts for a few chapters. Then the story picks up again.

I especially loved the pregnancy part. That was so much fluff but in good way as there was also a lot going on with the family plot combined with some angst.

What could be improved is a couple inaccuracies like a doctor that can deliver babies as well as other medical treatments in whole other medical fields. Also this doctor gives wrong medicine during a crisis. Author has clearly done too little research.

Villains are quite dumb but I didn't mind it really.

Usually, I deduct points for above mentioned flaws, but the feels at the end are really good, so still full 5 points.

Overall, super satisfying read. Great break from the scum gong and heart break stories. Just to catch some breath in between all those heavy stories. <<less

This is a sweet novel with a bit of face slapping and a short moment of angst.

Infos of the two main characters. Potential spoilers be aware!

MC: He Changning

... more>>
Spoiler

Age twenty, Yin family's third child, mothered by Yin Zhinian's first wife. His mother committed su*cide when He Changning was two years old. Shortly after, the mistress took over his mother's position. He Changning, who was less than three years old at that point, had since been taken care of by the helper, Aunt Qin. His presence in the Yin family was not prominent at all. In front of the Yin family members, He Changning had always been an obedient child. He didn't have a strong presence, and he was even neglected at times, but he had never cared about any of that. Or perhaps it could be that the current situation, where he seemed like an invisible person, was his plan all along. His occasional appearance in front of the family was probably for no other reason than to provoke those people on purpose. He had exceptional academic skills that allowed him to skip levels at a jaw-dropping speed. In a short time he was already able to graduated from university.

He also had another identity that was unimaginable and hard to figured out (Which attracted ML). In the recent years, there had been a extremely popular online writer.

His personal motto had always been – Everything will turn out for the best.

[collapse]

ML: Shang Yushang

Spoiler

He is from an aristocratic families. He was a person that was very hard to get along with because has minimal facial expressions, he was a man of few words, he had a mild obsession with cleanliness, his character was unpredictable, and he was known to be a moody person.

Taking over the Shang Establishment Group at the age of twenty-two, within eight years he had evolved Shang Establishment Group from a middle-leveled enterprise to the multinational corporation it was today. The group involved hotels, food and beverage businesses, entertainment businesses, construction companies, and many other industries. The large-scaled shopping malls under the group's name were scattered over various major cities in chains.

A person who had a decisive way of dealing with things in the toughest way in the business community – was he a person that could be easily swayed by others? Otherwise, why would he promise to marry another man as his wife? Even if he did prefer men, he should marry a person that he likes, shouldn't he? There was no reason why he should accept his family's arrangement and marry a man that he had never seen before.

[collapse]

Reason I paused reading (chap. 56) :

Spoiler

MC's blood related father and ML's grandmother are so shameless and inconsiderate! Thinking they have the right to take MC's children to raise and push all their work (career wise) at the parents. Are they any different than the villain in this story (MC's maternal Grandfather) ? MC even dyed (for a few moments) to give birth to these twins! *Rage*

[collapse]

I continued reading and:

Spoiler

They were able to hold the babies in chapter 62. The author just wanted to play us. *Smiles and sends blades to the author*

MC took over his father's company in america, both their company's development thrived and after a few years MC got pregnant again. The last chapter is an extra of the side CP (ML's shadow bodyguard x trained secretary of MC's father, nicknamed foreign devil)

[collapse]

My evaluation:

A really nice novel with a supportive and overbearing gong and an intelligent, familial love seeking shou. We also get to see a bit of the babies growing up.

I would have given this novel 5 stars, but considering ML's selfish action at the start of the novel, the angsty part and the chapter where the great-/grandparents were so unreasonable, I had to deduce a star. Btw. The translation quality is great! ^^ <<less

This is one of those novels that is not so realistic but I am still loving it so much to the point that I mtl-ed it until the end. It is a bitter sweet story though while I was reading this I was having a hard time because I have to auto correct the sentences in my mind (those chapter that are mtl-ed) but I still love it. The translator did a wonderful job translating it though he/she was not able to finish it but I am still grateful because... more>> I was able to have the gist of the story before the mtl-ed chapters that almost blown my mind. Anyways, it was a good read. Highly recommended for those people who like reading sweet but somewhat bitter stories. (It was bitter because of the family not the main characters). <<less

It's ok. Let's say it's a light read.

On the negative side: it's insta love from the ML. The MC say he isn't gay and don't want to be too touchy, but that get thrown to the dogs the following chapter as they kiss and act lovey-dovey.
The antagonists are not very well written, typical no brain Chinese vilains in order to face slap them easily.

Still, I've seen worse, you can try it if you want to read a fluffy BL story.

So, this is my first time making a review because this novel is really something. I am speechless about this novel.

Sorry but this is one of the worst BL novels I've ever read. There is no problem with the translation, what is problematic is the original novel.

The beginning of the chapter was very good, that's why I decided to read it. But as the chapters continue the story gets messier. Especially the villains are really annoying, there is no IQ and EQ.

I'm the type of reader who will continue reading... more>> even if the novel doesn't match my expectations or not my cup of tea. But honestly, this is the first time I'm really fed up and don't want to finish reading.

Oh seriously, author, I'm really disappointed with this novel. <<less

It started well but the last four or five chapters made me so angry I wanted to kick the author. Translation was amazing, the by-play between the translator and editor was adorable. Ending made me outraged, but not for the reasons you would think. Worth a read, be prepared for the ending anger.

I read this two years ago? Idk but it was a long time ago. It was my second first pure fluff Danmei the first was TPWD. Before idek this kind of genre or this type of Danmei exist cos my recommendation list is full of serious well written novel which is obviously a tearjerkers and for a fragile heart like me it was exhausting and painful so once in awhile you do need type of brainless novel. Just a feel good one and full of ur teenage fantasy? Romance is... more>> abrupt and very early but as someone who believe in love at first sight and Dont believe in "it takes time to fall in love" it was the perfect novel for me. So don't mind the plot hole and the low rating read this to refreshed ur mind from all those dog blood and misunderstanding cp and enjoy the ride. I do read this once in while when my brain need to rest as in I don't need to think of anything at all 😂 <<less

This was a nice read. But there were a few things that I did not like that's why I haven't given 5 star. Like the ML at first agreed to marry MC because his (mc) ability to get pregnant and he (ml) did not tell MC that. Though ML mentioned that he needs to say something when MC was unconscious. But he did not tell him. Atleast it was not mentioned in the story as far as I can remember. Another thing ML imp**gnated MC without telling him (mc) and... more>> also without disclosing the fact that MC could get pregnant as MC does not know that he can get pregnant. Another thing was the old people in the family did not let the MC and ML spend enough time with their children after birth for like 3 months. They did not even let them (MC and ml) touch them their kids for more than a few moments. While I get that MC needed to get rest for the first month. But they still didn't let him aftet the 1 month. And they also did not let the ML be with his kids that much even though he was not sick or anything. I specially hate the grandma. At first I liked her a lot. But she was the main person who did not let MC and ML spend time with the kids. And they were finally allowed to touch their kid after the kids 100 day party. But even than the day after the MCs father have the MC and ML to go run his (MCs father company which he hand over to MC while MC was pregnant). The MC wanted to spend more time with his child. But they did that on purpose so that the old people have the kids for themself. This behaviour of these old people was shown in the story as their love for the kids and in a cute, funny way. But honestly it's not right. The MC almost died giving birth to the kids. MC and ML was their parents. They have the right to be with their kids. Ughhh I am so frustrated. I guess the same thing will happen as the MC is pregnant again. <<less

I really think ML fell too fast and too hard all in the span of maybe 2 chapters, he went from vaguely interested to "I care way too much about you and safeguard you against those who want to hurt you. You're mine!!!" Like you barely met! Most of what you know is from a P.I. MC went from "I'm straight, as soon as this marriage is over I'm gone" to "maybe it won't be so bad, let's kiss now." Pretty quickly too except not as fast as ML. I... more>> don't like ML's attitude to MC's caretaker, she raised MC for years yet when she was unknowingly used to harm MC, ML was ready to boot her if it wasn't for MC's love for her. As if it didn't involve him, albeit indirectly. Then later on he keeps the knowledge that MC can get pregnant and is pregnant for as long as he could. He took away MC's agency right there. His pampering is ridiculously overboard, like he lost braincells every time he banged MC. Ugh I just don't like ML.

The MC's family (both sides) are cartoonishly evil, having no shame to say they raised him up and took good care of him, when they pushed his mom to sui/cide, neglected him to the point where he had to get a job & maintain his own money for food and paying his caretaker from when he was just 15. This family is greedy and the dad's attitude is disgusting. He's so blinded by his crone mother and shrew wife yet also feels guilty towards his son but he doesn't do shit! ML's dad is also a garbage man, also cheated on his wife except this caused his son to not see his mother for decades. Like what's with these men who only think with their bird, expecting everything to be fine and dandy after messing up their kid, wanting their kid to be the bigger person in every scenario. I wanted to kick them in the face!!!

The plot is meh, like a lot of drama happened but no real character development, I personally didn't enjoy it. My biggest problem is we hardly get any time with the leads, both as individuals and as a couple. Almost everything done was related to outsiders. MC's background is deeper than you think but by the time his maternal kin showed up, it already felt like overkill. I really tried kept going because it was a short story and was already 80% done. But good God I couldn't finish 😩 <<less

Contract marriage turned to true love story, with added bonus mpreg, lots of fluff from devoted ML and interesting side pairings. The author's writing style was rather simple, sometimes exaggerated and the story was a bit too plot-orientated for me. I prefer character-orientated stories, for e.g slice-of-life type. This story follows a specific script, like movie dramas or soap operas, where the antagonists s*upidly keep creating pits for themselves and never learning to stop after the first or 2nd failure, when common sense would dictate such. Although I like face-slapping... more>> and revenge p*rn as much as anyone else, but when the villains keep repeating the same mistakes, I was thinking they are no better than poor old Tom continuously chasing after little Jerry lmao. Otherwise, still a great light-hearted book to read. <<less

The tags should be added with an R-16 because of some morbid scenes hahaha.

So far, I'm liking it. This couple is both open-minded, have good communication skills, and quite capable on their own. Their open-mindedness resulted into their fast getting together; I think they're just both pans*xual ahhaha.

I'm not too sure how to rate this because I've seen some reviews and its downright bad. Edited:

The villains are indeed too dumb; the 'dramatic' scenes a hyperbole.

I really liked the first parts because they were really interesting and it had been a few months since I've read it, but why is it that the more I reread it, the more I dislike it as I find contradictions and ridiculous progresses?

Furthermore, just like what someone mentioned upstairs, the last 15-20 chapters just spiralled down.

MC was showing promise until the ML shows up, then he becomes a weak, pathetic doormat. Because the ML is an abusive SOB, overly controlling and disgusting. Nothing to enjoy about this crap novel.

I've done readjng this long ago via Mtl now am reading it again

Our MC is not a pushover despite being alone in that vicious family:His personal motto had always been – Everything will turn out for the best.

MC can stand on his own, spew right words to villains though at the same time have fragile moments and happy that our ML is there to support him

His family? According to MC their just:
"were all petty-minded, cruel and unscrupulous bastards with no sense of honor."
Yep which is true what a bunch of Hypocrites

ML of course investigated his future wife which was chosen by his grandma. (Just read the novel for more details) Shang Grandma and ML is also very clever decisive people and quick at analyzing the situation. At first MC past pick ML interest but it's still our MC personality which made our Cold ML to see him wholly&really love him.

Love the combination of MC and ML. MC know when to draw a line and fight for his rights. ML, our overbearing cold pres fell to our MC~cause why not?our MC is really charismatic (/^▽^) / good chara development. A doting hubby. Somtimes its like they can read each other minds. They Support each other!!!

Som ML line soothing MC like:

Spoiler

Yushang tightened his arms and calmed the restless little lad with his deep voice, "Changning, now that I've agreed to marry you, it's only natural that I would treat you with sincerity. No matter what comes our way, please believe in me, and that I'm marrying you out of my own will."

[collapse]

ML does not use force, patiently waiting for MC. Both leads are honest to eavlch other so there are no loooong misunderstandings unlike some novels but it also made the story kinda boring sometimes.

ML talking about his love of MC to his doctor friend:

Spoiler

doctor decided to start the conversation, "You're being serious?"

"You use your eyes to breathe?"

Bai Mo felt more unwilling to give up his inquiry. He wanted that fellow to admit it himself, so Bai Mo asked again shamelessly, "You really like him so much? You don't seem like a person who easily falls in love."

"When you meet the right person, falling in love is like catching a cold; you can't stop it from happening."

So, how did you find out about those things that your precious had?"

"When granny decided that I'm going to marry a male wife, I got my men to investigate everything about Changning. It was by accident that I realized that he had such a unique physique. Plus, I really liked him, hence the decision to marry him."

[collapse]

Like I typed it's not all about MC past but also how they interacted to each other eventually making the ML really love him and decide to be married.

ML pursuing MC like:

Spoiler

Changning, stay with me forever. My embrace could only handle you. So please, like me, fall in love with me?" I too, wanted to be that missing part of your life, so that I could complete your life and make it perfect.

[collapse]

Mc&ML's combo is reeallyy nice, Sweet revenge indeed too for those villains.

ML being happy cuddling with MC &thinking :

Spoiler

His shy and awkward lover looked really alluring, and made Yushang thankful for the choice that he had made back then. If he had not chosen Changning, he might end up living a boring life for the rest of his days.

Yushang dotingly nuzzled his lover's face, "Remember it well Changning, there's no need to care about others, you shouldn't even be considering everything because of me. I just want you to be safe and live happily."

[collapse]

Like let's Us have a hubby like ML okay???? The Gap moe of the pres according to MC was really big hahaha well so sweet and doting.

There's no reincarnation/transmigration just straight up danmei and Family fluff - though with problems of Family/work here and there

Story was good:4.5/5

Translation:5/5 kudos

Character:4.5/5

Went into the story openminded despite reading the reviews and I should've just minded my business. I can usually ignore nonsense and turn off my critical thinking when I read this type of novels but this was something else.

Spoiler

literally ML fell in love with MC out of nowhere like this man did not meet any of the descriptions that author set him up to be. Like it made no sense that he fell in love with MC from the second they met. Also the author just did not even try with the villains T T.. It was so bad that I wanna laugh. Also wtf was with all the r**ing... Like that was insane. What took the cake was when ML literally drugged his own best friend so the dude chasing him can get with him. After that, I just couldn't take this nonsense.

[collapse]

This was a waste of time. On the the other hand, Translation was good. That's the only reason this is getting 2 stars. <<less

Fortunately it just 64 chapter, well although as I said before this novel not bad and not good either, u can read it to satisfied ur curiosity about it <<less

I think this novel deserves a higher rating and that is why I am leaving this review. It is a sweet story about a loving couple. Of course there are some annoying parts but I still think they make the story more fun. The seme is really dedicated to the uke which made my heart warm. I had a great time reading it. Thank you so much for the translation!!
