The Antelope and Night Wolf

Description

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

LingYang spent 500RMB to buy a ladyboy account, and it came with a husband?

Just after logging into the game he was informed that the account was in debt, and he had no choice but to sell himself and act as a couple with his ‘husband’.

LingYang: I only bought an account, why must you force a husband on me?

YeLang: You can also choose not to take the husband but the debt instead.

LingYang: Dear, can I not have the free gift?

YeLang: Sorry, it’s a bundle, no returns allowed.

At first glance, it’s a story about how a little antelope accidentally entered the embrace of a big-tailed wolf after escaping from a tiger’s den.

But it’s actually an inspirational story about how an innocent straight man was actively turned gay by a little bottom with a boots fetish, then went through a series of complex mentality changes, finally becoming a cold-blooded, black-bellied S top!

    1. The are a lot of names and side characters. There was around 2 or 3 pairings introduced beside the main pairing, add in the in game name, and you will get confused. At least I did get confused and gave up remembering everyone else that was not the main character.
    2. It has boot fetish and a lil bit of sub dom relationship. Now, I do not mind bd*m. I just do not realize that this novel was one until around midway and booth fetish become one of the core plot. I really wish the author could introduce it more slowly from the beginning.
    3. Both the MC and ML are not the usual "straight/good" character. The MC is a liar, the ML was an egoistic brat. I love them since that was how people act irl. Personally, I find the ML not being no1 player really refreshing to read. For those who want the character to be more idealistic, this might not be for you.
    4. Everyone else are gay too trope. Some like it, some do not, but yeah. Every single one are either gay or bi, unless they are not that important or has little screen time.

3.8/5 (almost 4)

A very solid online gaming dramedy. I haven't read any of the other related works.

Things I liked:

    • honestly HILARIOUS. I was busting a gut laughing
    • balance of angst, sm*t, and comedic fluff. Really kept the flow of things well-paced and equal
    • the relationship between MC and ML is really fun; I love a coquettish, bratty shou who's also competent who gets pushed down by the jealous, badass ML. Cliche but so enjoyable
    • gaming terms were easy to understand
Things I didn't like:

    • keeping track of characters' names AND online handles AND schools AND relationships ToT
    • I feel like I could have used a wall with string and pictures to identify all the intertwining relationships here
    • was a bit difficult to tell the MC's white lies about his past from what actually happened, since up until the penultimate chapter, you're learning about his past from other people whom he's told varying degrees of lies to
Overall though, a super funny and enjoyable read with some ~spicy~ scenes and great character/relationship development. A definite recommend! I'll be reading the author's other works too~~~

I read Lemon and Mango’s story first, and I came to this story because I was curious about Antelope’s cameo. Author didn’t disappoint. A lot of people were complaining about MC lying all the time, but sometimes it just becomes a part of you. And ML also knows that and accepts it. Maybe many people haven’t had any relatable experiences so they aren’t able the sympathize with MC. MC didn’t tell any harmful lies, they were just to protect his identity from being revealed, or to hide the truth from... more>> his friend because he knew his friend would blame himself. Lying was his defense mechanism, but he never did it with bad intentions.

If MC didn’t become the ML’s wife, he wouldn’t have joined the guild and have the same experience. Maybe he would’ve ended up with Tiger. But that may not have been the best for him, as Tiger was pretty shocked by the nature of the relationship between the ML and MC. I can understand why MC didn’t talk to Tiger when he was in the hospital. MC risked destroying their precious relationship and confessed but didn’t get a response. Not a single word. The next morning when he feels guilty, unworthy, and ashamed, he gets scolded by the most important person to him. Again, no reference to previous confession. MC gave up his dream to save that person, and his other dream was again crushed because of that person. At his worst time, that person he was willing to give everything up for scolded him for the first time in his life. He couldn’t accept it and avoided him. Not everyone is a perfect human being who can make decisions without being influenced by their emotions, which is what makes the novel so special.

I think ML and MC were a very good match, with MC being able to completely rely on ML, and ML doing his best to fulfill MC’s dreams. When ML wants to overcome his fear of heights so he could learn to fly a plane and take the MC, it felt like it was worth it. When ML apologized and felt like he failed as a master because they were almost caught, it showed how much he cared about the MC although he may have acted otherwise. Even MC daring to confess to ML after the previous experience was sweet.

I actually read a part of the other novel from the same author about the actor and was interested in it, but didn’t finish it because the translation was yet to be completed at that time. I only found out after coming to write a review for this novel. I think the author has a very healthy view of such relationships and wrote them beautifully. Overall I recommend reading this novel if the fetish mentioned by the author doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable. <<less

2/5*

Is it because I'm not used to E-sports stories that I have a hard time to just follow what is going on??

The in-game dialogues are hard to follow for me. The whole flow of a normal story is gone. Just checking who said what in the in the game's chat box and remembering all the in-game names made me dizzy and gave me a headache.

I guess I can't handle these type of novels and format? Also, I really don't care about all the in-game fights, guilds, disputes, relationships etc. Since,... more>> it is all a game to me, I'm only invested in what happens outside of the game.

Maybe I'll come back to this story just to read about their 'real life'. Too bad. This story has a few good reviews and the back story sounds promising. <<less

Read this 3 times already... love it every time, although the drama and backstory hurt each time but the MC is my f’ing hero. I know many others have complaints about the ML, but I believe everyone has their own way to show love and care and I wouldn’t pay attention to those who wrote the review before finishing the story. All characters truly develop, grow and improve a lot, including the ML.

Aside from the fact I love some good BD*M and smut, this story wasn’t totally about that. All... more>> the forum posts, guild chats, side convos were simply hilarious. I love this story for the comedy. Especially that of the MC.

The audio drama is great too! So check that out if you can understand Chinese. It’s too bad it doesn’t cover the whole story but surprisingly it does reach the first NSFW scene. ::wiggles eyebrows:: <<less

4.5! okay this is the first time im giving a novel something that is below 5

but hear me out... this novel is actually really reaaaaaally awesomee if not for some shortcomings here and there

like someone below said... its chaotic but I liked itt

i felt bad for the MC... like seriously he went through so muchhh that I cant even imagine... he had to give up his dream and his love and ahhhhh soo much and too much u just will feel painn... but thhen comes the ML he actually loves... more>> our MC so much!! even in their dom-sub relationship

there is this one place I actually understood the ML

Spoiler

in the later chapters there was this inner monologue of the ML thanking MC for surviving until he found him ah that really broke me!! just a silent "thank you" while hugging our MC

" From now on, let me be your MT, your shield, and bear all your hurts for you." AHHHHHHHHHHH

[collapse]

i kinda didnt like a certain side cp... thats why im hellbent on not giving 5 stars ahahaha

but dont worry it wont affect the story line of my main cp

I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCHHHH!! fellow readers... do give this book a try ne... it unlocks a door to a different dimension

this is my first book which contained bd*m ah... imm REALLY not into it but here I liked it actually!! smut was just woaaaaahh *shying away*

and also in my opinion I think author actually created a person who had a fetish really well... it was hinted from the beginning but came to light at the latter half of the story

i loved that there were texts from forums in the beginning of the chapters... that make us understand what is going to happen and add some comedy ah

those forums were just super awesommeee and the gaming part was I dont know it was kinda unorganised I could say (its not like other game focused novels)... it was there to make the plot movee ahh yess its like that!!

i criedddd while reading this... thats why I will remember this book ah

One of the best I have read so far, especially after the MC and ML got together.

... more>>
Spoiler

This is my first time reading a Chinese BL novel that revolves around dom-sub relationship so I'm quite surprised and pleased with the turn of events.

[collapse]

MC: He was a fun and outgoing character. His vulgar words and shameless flirtations with ML had me hooked from beginning to end.

ML: The plotline was unique and the ML wasn't too OP even with his background. His character developed as the story goes and he also has his shortcomings.

Spoiler

Both the MC and ML fit each other just right, and even with their dom-sub relationship and the dominant aura of the ML (after he became a full-fledged dom), they still banter and hit each other playfully (unlike in other dom-sub I read where the sub is always a shy type even outside the play).

[collapse]

The plot wasn't too dragged out and the misunderstandings was actually funny. It's quite relatable and realistic in a sense with human response and reasonings. It's also a mild story and there's not too much drama. You'll feel sad about the MC's experiences but it will not necessarily make you cry because the MC's comments and jokes are always there.

Although some of the things done by the characters are quite weird...

Spoiler

Like tiger telling his whole life with MC using a loud speaker in the game. Him letting his gf spread rumours and her girlfriend getting away without any punishment. In short, Tiger's character has a weird kind of thinking. It feels like he was just added to have a "love rival".

[collapse]

All in all, this is an excellent read if you're looking for a funny and short one story. The interactions of both MC and ML isn't cliche and really fun to watch. They're not that typical gross couple full of sweetness, their banters are so funny (It's a shame I can't see more of MC's and ML's interactions now that I finished it).

I actually want more of ML's and MC's future scenes, but "there's no banquet in this world that doesn't come to an end" so I'll just have to reread some parts to satisfy myself lol (இωஇ) <<less

Honestly, one of the best novels I’ve read so far. I really liked the plot, the characters, the drama, and fetishism plus SM relationship were a nice fresh touch which really explained MC and MLs fitness for each other. The second part of the novel finally moves from mainly in-game story development, and takes part in actual life, and that’s when I really fell in love with this novel.

Also I’d like to highlight some details which made the story feel more life-like:

1) partners treat each other as men irl, bottom... more>> is not all lady-like, tiny and elegant, shy and always surprised by top’s s*xual desires.

2) smut scenes are well written, some details made me think that author knows what she writes about xD (e.g. the MC’s reactions during the very first interc**rse).

the only thing that made me wonder is that it felt like everyone in that town is gay, even the characters whose preferences were not directly indicated...

Also, the BlackBox TL translation is brilliant! I loved it so much, thanks a lot for it! <<less

Not sure about other but the couple caught my interest after he resemble weiwuxian and lanzhan. MC is happy go lucky n funny. ML is slightly wood starting but warm up full of protective instinct. The author gave all the couple's a story inside that I'm happy nobody actually left out except muheng. But damn if all good looking and yummy guys is bent..... where left for the girls in this world.I also want a hottie's like them.😭

If ppl are worry about BD*M... honestly these are super mild. If you... more>> can be open minded about gays why not BD*M. Author did give a good impression on it anyway.

What an absolutely awesome novel. I love the characters really do. The MC has an amazing personality. The ML is great, I loved the S tendencies he displayed while still being caring and good to his lover. Loved the other characters. The plot was interesting, the story was good and loved how funny it was. I really cant get that grin off my face. Reading it was so much fun. Absolutely one of my favourites and sure to reread.

This is a great read with a slow and maybe a bit of a hateful start. Especially, since there are many misunderstandings between MC and ML. Plus the MC has a lot of people with enmity with him. There were many times I thought of dropping it but I persevered. When I read ML's inner monologue in chapter 79:

Thank you, for wrapping yourself in sheep’s clothing and coming close to me.
Thank you, for having the courage to confess your feelings to me.
Thank you, for those little lies.
Thank you, for not running away even after we got a divorce.
Thank you, for shielding me with your lies, while you suffered with the truth.
Thank you, for going through so much, but still, be able to smile like that.
From now on, let me be your MT, your shield, and bear all your hurts for you.

I was touched and was glad to persevere with this story. This was probably one of the best relationships there is between the MC and ML. The problems, later on, get solved flawlessly and excellently. <<less

I'm really not sure what to rate this. Reason being that it definitely wasn't the smoothest read for me and parts of it seem quite questionable. I don't regret reading it though.

As for why, see below. This is definitely a bit spoilery but not really plot wise, just in terms of their relationship (dynamics).

I copied this from the comment I made after finishing it.

... more>>
Spoiler

It was quite interesting... one of the reasons for that being that reading this kinda made me anxious like seldom anything does XD BD*M has its appeal, it's just, in this case it really... uh weirded me out how their dom sub ish dynamic wasn't confined to bedroom matters. With YeLang's (ML) chauvinistic ways and all, having to be in control of and stronger than his partner. Is that common? Guess I'll look into this later ?

I didn't expect some of the controlling/encroaching/superior-inferior/dominant-submissive aspects to also be present "irl", so that definitely took me by surprise and made me apprehensive of how far that'd go. I guess I'm not accepting enough of that yet... as long as the people involved like it, it's probably fine no matter how they treat each other. It's just that I couldn't ascertain whether that really was the case for LingYang (MC). It seemed like he doesn't appreciate it when YeLang acts overbearingly in normal life situations. So while I was quite into their s*xual play stuff, their interactions otherwise seemed a bit questionable to me. Putting it extremely, I'd approve of and probably appreciate reading about the interactions of a couple that's into 24/7 master-s*ave play including all areas of life; if that's how they want it. That all encompassing appreciation doesn't seem to be present for LingYang though with the way YeLang acts sometimes. So yeah... omfg I'm not sure whether this finding faults habit of mine is good or bad xD. On the other hand, it was nice how they came to care for each other and complete each other. Also, I've never read boot fetish stuff before, so that was a new experience ? there also were some really beautiful moments~ like when YeLang thanked LingYang in his mind for all the things he did to reach this point in his life where they could be together. This was primarily just really interesting xD [end of comment]

This just... well, it just seems I don't like the ML much. His personality... uh. There were fair warnings by the author and translator that this wouldn't be a common type relationship, that they wouldn't be equal. And that's certainly what it felt like to me. Don't get me wrong, the ML really comes to love and care for the MC. However, loving and caring for someone doesn't mean you see them as your equal and respect their thoughts, feelings and wishes. It irked me quite a bit cause I really value respect in a relationship. This may be kinda offensive but it reminded me of how you can love your dog more than anything and still not respect it.

If what I wrote above triggers you, you may not wanna read this. Otherwise, go for it~ it's interesting and entertaining.

Good story and translation.

This is one of the few novels where the MC is better than the ML. MC runs circles around the ML. Lol

There are some sad parts to the novel (the childhood flashback of the 3 friends made me bawl) but overall its a fun read.

The MC and his friends are all crazy OTT characters which make for a fun read. Keep logic aside and enjoy the mayhem. My only complaint is the part where the MC wants to confess his identity to the ML. It was... more>> draggy. Also, this story has too many coincidences. But its fine. Its a story anyway.

Overall a good story.

This novel has an interesting story-building. I've seen ppl commenting how they find the last third part with the swift developing of SM relationship too sudden, although if you read carefully you'll realize all the foreshadowing, some of which was obvious and blunt, especially MC boot fetish, which was explained early on.

But let me share on this one. Why I say it's interesting in its' development is because when you step into the story you meet rather carefree MC, who is trying to hide from ppl and runs away all... more>> the time. Only with the story going forward you start slowly realizing the motivation behind his actions. It's not like he couldn't say it, he simply didn't want to expose the things that happened to him knowing the consequences. It's not that simple as it may seem at first sight. This slow reveal tries to show how beind sometimes cheerful facade can be a bleeding heart and not everyone copes with trauma by depressing themseves while shutting down. Basically the first part shows that this person is same as everyone else, they just have their own preferences in s*x and stuff that turns them on, although they try to shut it down real tight fearing the exposure. So the chain of lies that MC spouts is a defense mechanism, why he doesn't want to talk he doesn't want to expose some things that may hurt people he cares about.

ML actually has the same problem. He has his domineering nature. Yes, many don't agree with such stuff, but nature is nature and he was born like this forcing himself to adapt and act accordingly to be socially accepted. Until he met MC and could finally let himself go. His in-game temperament actually gives a clear idea on how he feels inside and lets himself be that way only with MC where they find each other a perfect match both in life and especially in bed. So basically nothing comes down abruptly, everything developed right from the start.

And tbh I liked how the whole SM was handled. It's nothing excessive, but I feel greatful for the insight on it, although when it came to mentioning the circle it sometimes seemed vulgar and shameless (like scenes at the bar etc.), but it also touched more profound things like struggles of ppl, also coming out not as gay, for example, but actually for having a peculiat taste.

This is the second work from this author that I've read and so far I like their style and stories.

PS: I skipped the extras because I didn't really care about other pairings, they had their time in main work and it was fine like that. Also, the only thing that makes me lower the stars to 4, 5 is the part when

Spoiler

ML goes to voice chat and hears MC's voice loudly and clearly, but only because a while later when MC's account is handled by Little Buckle and MC is with ML, which makes ML think that Bell and MC are two different people, that part really lacked foundation. There were also few mild mistakes here and there, but who doesn't have those.

After reading the whole novel, I would like to change my rating to 4.5.

I enjoyed reading about MC and his group of friends. Although I felt there were too many mysteries hinted at the beginning (which get explained at the end), it is still a great fun read for the unique characters (especially the ML who is far from being perfect, who can’t fix everything, and can be seen as very flawed human being who grows over time along with his relationship with MC). Great side characters as well,... more>> and I wanted to know more about their stories as well. <<less

Ooh, this story, this story...

As someone who loves online RPGs, and who has experienced the bitterness of online dating, this story really touched my heart. All characters have their hidden facets, but the one who takes the cake is MC.

Totally recommended. I recommend this so hard.

Translation is brilliant, thank you translator!

Spoiler

The BD*M stuff in the novel is shown lightly through the beggining and slightly heavier towards the end. MC little Anteloupe has a fetish for boots, to the point of being worshpful - this does not really mean he's a true submissive (at the beggining of their s3xual) relationship or that he likes bondage per see... But as the ML comes to know about the "circle" MC is part of, he discovers his capslocked D self and MC trully sinks into the psychological relief of letting go of all control.

The MC himself "forces" a BJ on ML to "calm him down" lol.

The commentary going on through the forums at the beggining of each chapter is the cherry on top lol. A lot of MC's actions are derived from the answers he gets from there... Like "how to bend a straight man" the answer MC obviously focused on was the "do him a BJ until he gets addicted to it and bends" - thus he chose that method to "repent" and "confess" his feelings..

Spoiler

chapter 52 foward

[collapse]

ML is not a cad though. He is just simple minded and goes through a quiet revolution. He accepts MC's quirks and help him get over his complex, emotional past. ML is also realistic enough to know he has fallen for a man irl, breaking up with his "wife" in game when he thought thats what MC wanted (even though MC was secretly said wife in game). He panders a lot to MC whims, even learning more about BD*M, finding out he likes being a Dom and having MC as a sub.

I personally think that this is a lovely story. Not so much BD*M, but there really is. So be prepared especially when you're not a fan of this genre. If you're one, then welcome, this is certainly for you - an adorable romcom revolving around gaming, and sprinkled with a touch of kinkiness.

MC and ML are not acquaintances to begin with. They were just, say, cyber friends who don't even know each other's real name, let alone face. Their actual romantic relationship starts somewhere around the middle of the story,... more>> growing more steadily and sweetly henceforth.

The MC is overwhelmingly bright and likeable. He's positive, yet has a tendency to keep hiding his true emotions deep down. This lovable boy is hinted to have gone through some real troubles before the main timeline of the story, on which I will not articulate more for fear of spoiling your reading. I can only say that MC's past story was bitter, and definitely regrettable.

The ML has a strong and dominant personality, sometimes even authoritative. He may seem, well, insolent and unruly at first. Yet, as the story develops, he grows more and more considerate of our MC, and even falls very deeply in love with him at that. He protects our sweet MC pretty carefully, in-game and real life alike. I would say that he is a reliable man to be with.

It would be an unforgivable slip to review a gaming story without mentioning the gaming element. Well, the author's writing skill regarding this respect is precious. She describes the game settings in moderate detail, coupled with some useful background information and context, making it easy to follow but not bland at one bit. Also, her description of game battles is of high quality - this author includes the skills the characters use and how they use it clearly and logically. In the game, some playing tricks are indeed hilarious, yet when it comes to battle skills badasses are all over the place <3

To sum up, this is a good story. I finished it in around 4-5 days. The romance isn't cheesy but very moving, and the gaming is exciting and coolio foolio. Highly recommended. Have a good read! <<less
