Luo Wencheng made a deal with a certain existence and went back in time to ten years ago, when he had just been released from prison, still young and healthy, not yet pushed to the breaking point by Luo Wenjun and not yet used by him as a prop to test drugs for profit until his tragic death.

This time he was going to trample Luo Wenjun underfoot.

The first priority was to steal Luo Wenjun’s future backer from him.

YunYun the translator is here :) So, what kind of story is it? The MC, Luo Wencheng, lived a miserable life, died a miserable death, made a deal with a "system", was reborn, is bent on avenging himself on those who hurt him and wants to hug the golden thigh of the wealthy and powerful future ML. The MC is also a fake young master who is kicked out by his former family when the real young master is found - not a spoiler since it is revealed in the... more>> first page of the story. Oh, and don't let me forget: the MC was raised as a waste by his father so that he couldn't compete with his elder brother for the family's business. Then the MC drove his car into people and went to prison... sounds exactly like the beginning of another novel I translated - Rebirth: Different Way - right? It looks like the author decided to gather a bunch of the most common tropes in this story. Well, if you're tired of these tropes, you probably should stay away from it. If you love these tropes (I certainly do), you might take a look to see what is different here.

For me, the main difference is that this story is not shuangwen. The MC might have suffered before his rebirth but after his rebirth his road is smooth and successful, with satisfying face-slapping and the ML who is pampering him... not about this story. Everything the MC gets comes for a price, and a pretty high one, including his rebirth and his golden finger. Initially, I was pulled into the story because I was interested to see how far the MC would go. Pure emotions are always fascinating, including pure hatred.
Spoiler

And the MC is literally stripped of all other emotions. So, for his revenge he is ready to do anything: he doesn't mind pretending to be pitiful, doesn't mind using people, doesn't mind being humiliated, doesn't mind selling himself if necessary. His bottom line? I wanted to see it - and when it appeared, it made me even more interested because it made the MC vulnerable. So the question was: what will be stronger?

The MC does manage to pull the ML to his side and get the ML's help in his revenge (even without sacrificing much, actually), However, it is another pitfall for the MC. Because the ML helps him, protects him, deals with his horrible family for him... but the ML's heart is occupied by a person who disappeared ten years ago... and the ML keeps waiting for his return. And no, he doesn't use the MC as a substitute - and he even has some feelings for the MC. But the person he waits for is still more important for him, more important than anything and anyone.

The revenge on the MC's former family is just a part of the plot, and not a big one. I liked how they were dealt with, especially the elder brother. The father is an idiot and the real young master is a psycho and a sadist, not complicated, but Luo Wenhao, the elder brother, in my eyes was actually the worst one, and I felt happy that the author seemed to think the same. The message that condoning evil is no better than doing evil comes across very clearly in the story, and it is very close to my heart.

Another part of the plot is the MC's real family (very sad, very touching). And there is also the evil medical experiments subplot that I didn't particularly enjoy but it tied the loose ends from the MC's previous life very well. This is one more thing I like about the author's writing: she really paid attention to everything. Nothing happened for no reason, everything that was mentioned made sense. Even the fact that the MC initially approached the ML to use him was addressed eventually in the way that made me very happy.

[collapse]

I liked the author's style, too. Mostly it is pretty simple but there are moments when her writing was so sweet and sad at the same time that I felt tears in my eyes. <<less

Oh. My. Freaking. God.

I absolutely love the system in this one. It doesn't have much of a screentime but it's the real mvp here.... more>>
Spoiler

It expends its own energy to give MC chances again and again, to the point that it loses almost all its energy and has to go to hibernation. It also breaks so many rules because even though it's supposed to be cold and emotionless, it's got so much kindness and compassion for the MC and ML.

In the end, as MC and ML are dying of old age after a life of love and happiness, it finally gets to reap the benefits of its hardwork, but it decides not to convert the love and faith MC and ML had for each other into energy, because according to it, that love and faith is more precious than energy. I do not have words for how touched I feel, I feel like I'll never be able to come across a system as good as this one.

[collapse]

The MC is smart. The ML is powerful. There are a lot of cliches used very well. There's pain, hurt, more hurt and even more hurt with some smatterings of bittersweet comfort in between. This entire story was planned really, really well. Very few plot holes and quite a lot of logical thinking.

There are too many parts that I like here. MC isn't overpowered. He does get a gold finger, but the price he pays for it makes me wonder if the gold finger was worth it. Tbh it was more of a way to survive for him, he'd have died again if not for the gold finger. He pays a big price for everything that he gets.

Although it's tagged as yaoi, it's more shounen ai, since the MC and ML barely kiss thrice on screen, and that's it. However, I'd say the romance is top knotch. The way they love and support each other and go mad when the other is in danger..... It's peak level romance.

The story has been written and translated very well. XiaoYunYun did a great job at translation. This story definitely deserves 5 stars. <<less

Good read with interesting twists. The story slowed down in the middle but geared up again with a happy ending.

MC, Luo Wencheng, died as a result of human experimentation at the age of 31. A system gives him a chance to be reborn again 10 years into the past in exchange for his love and hope. MC agrees and comes back to when he is 21 and just released from prison. Shortly after, he meets ML, Lu Chong aka Lu Jiuye, and decides to use him to help accomplish his... more>> revenge.

This spoiler reveals the twists. So if you read it, it might affect your enjoyment.

Spoiler

ML helps MC with his revenge against his family. The process was much quicker and easier than MC expected. MC falls in love with ML but although ML has feelings for MC, he won't accept MC. For the past 16 years, ML has been waiting for the person he loved. The person disappeared and promised to see him again in 15 years. The time has passed but he has not given up.

A BIGGER SPOILER...

....

...

The person ML is waiting for is actually MC. When MC was 15 years old, a system sent him 10 years into the past when he was 5 years old. His physical teenage body was sent back, so he was able to see his other self. Since he did not want to affect his past, he stayed away from his house and encountered ML. ML was 16 and had been kidnapped. MC rescued him and also picked up a kitten, Ribs. They stayed/played together for months at ML's place in the capital.

However, the time to return to his timeline is coming up. MC tells ML to forget about him but ML confesses his love to MC. MC then promises to see him in 15 years, by then MC should be 20 years old and be able to travel. ML is actually 11 years older than MC, so by then he would be 31. ML promises to wait.

On the day MC was to leave, he was shot while protecting ML. Because his life was in danger, he was pulled back to his timeline. The system went dormant and his memory of the system was wiped along with memories of ML. That's why MC did not remember ML.

THE OTHER SPOILER...

...

...

In MC's first life, when he died at the age of 31, ML was notified by the system of MC's death and revealed MC's identity. ML uncovered the truth about MC and killed the people who abused him. ML also exchanged the remainder of his life energy to allow MC to be reborn 10 years in the past. Without this energy, the system would not have been able to give MC the option to be reborn.

Nothing makes me feel more satisfied than reading a story where everything is just right, where the author answered all my questions, where I don't want to add or erase something. This one was an unexpected gem. The title is so bland, the summary is so cliche, it is like the story tells you "I'm nothing special, don't pay attention to me". But if you still decide to give it a chance... whew, all my free time was consumed by it for two days, all of it.

What a rollercoaster of... more>> emotions. I came for revenge and face-slapping, and I got it. I also got the MC that is very good at being a green tea b*tch but there is a lot more about him.
Spoiler

Luo Wencheng won my heart at the moment when he accepted the cat food to eat. I love characters who are ready to do whatever it takes and pay the price to achieve what they want, and it is another apsect of this story that I liked very much: nothing is free there. Being reborn for the MC is just a start, every next step has to be paid for, and the price is quite steep.

[collapse]

What I didn't expect was how heartbreaking some parts of the story was. There were chapters were I was crying my eyes out. But it was not tears of frustration, of feeling helpless and resentful. It hurt but it hurt good, and the story never stopped moving, going forward and forward, there was always some light, even in the saddest parts.

As for blaming the ML for his choices, but
Spoiler

what should he have done? Should he have forgotten his promise, choose the new because the old was too long to come? My heart was broken because "the new" was our MC but objectively speaking, isn't the ML's choice honorable? I have to admit I kinda wanted the ML to hurt a bit more after the secret was revealed - and then there was the extra. The ML paid his dues, he paid them in the previous life.

[collapse]

I also loved Ribs, almost ridiculoulsy so. She is so alive in my heart that it seems I can see her sitting in the doorway, looking at me with her round amber eyes.

For me, the story was all that. It was. <<less

To be honest, after I saw the "system improves your looks by 20%" in the first couple chapters, I was very skeptical whether this story was going to be good. But I am glad I stuck through with it because it indeed did go in directions I hadn't expected.

I wouldn't recommend this story as a first-read to those unfamiliar with system or rebirth style CN novels.
Spoiler

You really need to experience of the crappier stuff out there before you can appreciate this presence. It's like Madoka - if you didn't know what magical girls were or anything about the genre, you wouldn't really be able to appreciate the dark and interesting twists that Madoka created.

[collapse]

So yes, I'm making that comparison. I thought this story would be like all of those other types of "system/novel transmigration" stories; it's not. BUT it pretends to be, at least in the beginning, before turning things on its head.

What other "system/transmigration" novels do badly (and a frequent complaint from readers to this effect) is that oftentimes, the transmigrator's bonuses or effects are never truly integrated well into the story. Not so with this one.

Spoiler

In this one, you can see a strand of karma or scales or "equivalent trade" in the works. For every reaction, there is a counterreaction. In every wish/bonus the MC gets, there is a payment the MC needs to make. There's no free lunch in this world, and this story utilizes that beautifully to the max.

[collapse]

And it's reflected in the dark sides as well -

Spoiler

the author utilizes the plot point of the evil scientist to show the reader that, good and evil are two sides of the same coin. For example, certain scientific breakthroughs in the past have not used the most ethical means. Of course, that's no excuse and humanity is always trying to get better, but the world isn't black/white. And so this horrible, evil, researcher who did the worst things to the MC, also, in part, contributed to his salvation through his ownership of advanced technology from his experiments.

[collapse]

Another point I really enjoyed is just the daily interactions between the MC and ML, as well as the steps the MC took for his revenge. I always love a smart MC and this one is super relatable. He struggles with his feelings of guilt as well as his traumas and judgments. And the relationship progression between the two leads, their tension and slow romantic process was built up and woven together wonderfully.

The emotional conflict was also great as well. Not pure angst, but a great balance in between.

Again, beautifully written story with a fantastic translation.

It's definitely worth sticking through to the end.

Thank god I read the story, it was a gem for me, it wasn't unique 'cause I had read some before similar to this one.

But idk I just felt there was something different in this, it was really nice to read and while doing so I felt my heart undergoing certain emotions.

It's a rebirth revenge story, basically ... more>>
Spoiler

MC died and was reborn 10 years prior to his death, found a backer (Ml) and destroyed the luo family.

[collapse]

MC in the story was quite restrained, cute yet heartwarming, even though he was using ML but it was moderately, he was not arrogant and despite undergone such torture in his previous life he was not cruel. I really liked him alot I felt quite distressed for him. Even though in later stage he fell in love with ML he was not overbearing, he respected ml's decision and left him silently, he was really an endearing character, that no one would hate. Despite being reborn he was never over ambitious, he just wanted revenge and to live peacefully, if he had not fell for ml, I think he would have rather killed himself after his revenge.

And ML ohh we was really caring and so good to MC despite knowing MC was using him. He was lovely and yet frustrating to me sometimes but I know he just wanted keep the promise he made.
Spoiler

After MC started living with him he looked after him, took MC's care and helped him in every possible way, when he realised his growing fond feelings for MC he tried to distance himself for MC, I really cried at that time. But I don't hate him he wanted to keep his promise and wait for his love who he met during his teen years, thank god it was MC either I don't know if I would have completed the story. After knowing that MC was the same person his personality took a drastic change, he turned from a cold caring ML to sweet coquetish ml

[collapse]
Despite being cold and ruthless he was really very caring, it could be seen from the way he took care of MC and his close subordinates and his lovely cat. Cat (ribs) was basically his child, so when she died I felt my heart tightening. I really liked him alot.

The story has a good plotline not excessive it's just right. I loved the extras, knowing that even in his previous life he took revenge for MC but it was already late ಥ_ಥ, but still it was a relief for me.

And yes I almost forgot while reading it do keep tissues with u, u would need it. I read this story without sleeping straight till 6 in morning ahhh now I need sleep so bad. I would I highly recommend it to everyone of u, it's really an amazing story, so dont overthink and straight dig in I can guarantee you would love it.

And I would also highly encourage everyone to leave a review as it could help others to give a try to the story.

It's a wonderful story and I fell for it.

5/5* - RECOMMEND

It has been a while that I read such a gem!!

This story was so much better and deeper than you may expect from the summary. It's not the usual rebirth/revenge story. It was so tragic, yet so bitter sweet too in the first 2/3 part of the story.

In the last 1/3 part things are reveiled. And WOW!!!! The backstory, the system, the ML... the plot is so well executed and these deep layers... The side characters were distinctive and their precious cat who died of old age made... more>> me cry so much.

This is a truly great story! So beautiful!! Great leads, great plot, great pet, great system. Well written, well executed, excellent story and excellent translation! <<less

It has fake white lotus, selling misery, reborn, face-slapping, great MC and ML. This is the kind of story that I've been looking for a long time, and what put this story on my top favorites is the selling misery, i.e. MC getting hurt or injured and ML worrying over him. The story done that very well and it really fulfills my 'hurt/comfort' craving (which is not that common for CN BL).

This is a very biased review because I rarely came across a story with my favorite trope, whump or... more>> hurt/comfort, so I will mention that a lot.

On to the story, it's built on common tropes as the translator said, with clichés you can find in other novels. I like that already, and then this story sprinkled a lot of whump doses and I fell in love that I binged it overnight. The revenge sub-plot is probably pretty predictable, but the romance was quite fresh for me and intriguing. At some point, I was totally okay if the story ended as tragedy, but not to worry, it's HE.

MC:

Spoiler

What I like the most about him is that he knew ML's gentleness, and he used his misery (getting hurt and injured, both intentionally and unintentionally) to gain goodwill. But even so, he did that in moderation--not only because too much will become annoying but also because he wasn't comfortable lying to ML. The prices he had to pay to stay alive satisfied my sadistic heart, and I love that it was never forgotten as a daily occurrence. I like MC's character in this, not overtly cunning, still has a heart, and high EQ.

[collapse]

ML:

Spoiler

He was first shown as a common domineering gong, but man, I love the fact that he loves someone so determinedly that even though he came to like MC, he stood strong with his first and only love. He has a soft spot not only for MC but also his subordinates. He knew his heart was wavering because of MC and he took precaution early on to diminish his feelings. He cared about MC, but he couldn't put MC as no. 1 so he made sure MC knew that too. This character of him is really the point where I'm really fine if the story ended as BE/tragedy, but thankfully his love was actually MC himself, this involved the rebirth and system sub-plot.

[collapse]

Romance:

Spoiler

I've been looking for a story about moving on from old love, and this story shows great progress for this plot, only to basically end up in BE (since ML stayed true to his first love). And then, when ML knows about MC as his first love, their relationship progress engagingly. I cannot type it exactly, but I love the how their relationship develop from beginning to end.

[collapse]

Not really a fan of the 'researcher' arc, but as the translator said, it tied up all loose ends. <<less

I liked it very much!

I've been looking for a novel that could move me. I think this one has everything I was looking for, in just the right mesure.

It made me both happy and sad. Making me laugh one moment and cry in the next. *Chef kiss*

The plot has many ups and downs for the protagonists, but everything is wonderfully connected by the author's writing.
In my opinion, there could be a lot more of drama if the author wanted it, but I think it would be too much... more>> of suffering for us to bear.
Spoiler

If the author wanted to make us suffer, we would have to follow the MC through all the suffering of his first and second life. And I think it would be too much to bear, which is why I think everything was in the right proportion.

One of the most amazing read I've had since a while. The number one thing I love about this novel is how everything connects from the start to the end. I VERY much recommend you to listen to your sad comfort playlist or depressing/heartache playlist if you choose to read this novel. There are angst, bitterness, and heartache, but even from someone who dislikes angsty novels, I very much welcomed it as if this book is my comfort pillow. This novel has a good end, which is such a sweet... more>> tears moment for the ones who stick out to till the end.

Personally, the song I chose to listen in repeat is "A Dazzling Season" by Yangpa. The english translated lyrics of this song very much resonates to this book. Truly. <<less

If you are here for face-slapping plot, you won't get a lot but there are some face-slapping scenes. The story mainly focuses more on MC and ML's true love for each other. I fell in love with the MC character after just 10 chapters, lol. It took me a while to fall in love with the ML, mainly because the ML is such a stoic character.

I cried twice in this novel. The first time was when the MC found his real biological father and he decided not to tell him... more>> for various reasons but when he heard why his father started a new family, it was sad... for both the dad and the MC. The second time was when Ribs, the cat, passed away. Ribs was the only one who remember the MC and was trying to spend his last few days with the MC before she passed away.

Overall, I like our MC and how much he is willing to sacrifice for those that matters to him... he's also not as vicious as some other rebirth character MC in other novels which make his character more humane to me in this sense. <<less

It's HE... Don't ever doubt that! But I do wonder if this should have a Tragedy Genre or not. It feels like it and also not really at the same time.

It's also has One of the Cruelest System I have ever know without being Evil nor Villain. ... more>>

Or at least that was I thought until we get to see the Extras.

I'm sorry System for Doubting you... ˚‧º· (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥) ‧º·˚

I really liked this novel. The way the system works is pretty interesting, and I liked that both the leads are multifaceted but still likeable. Both of the leads are quite smart as well. I cried a few times while reading. I liked the ending and how everything is resolved, although it is a little bittersweet. I felt there were some parts in the last 1/3 of the novel that felt like they dragged on a little bit, but I still enjoyed the novel a lot and recommend it.

Wow, One of the most satisfying BL novel for me. Ofcourse the story is beautiful and has flaws in it with some cringe or corney parts and other but the author did a good job playing with emotions and satisfying my curiosity and answering to all of my questions.

This novel is full of Emotional Package for me. It not only made me feel Happiness and sadness, it also made me feel angry, annoying and frustration while reading this novel. The author also played with emotions really well. I also... more>> cried so hard, especially in later half part.
Spoiler

I cried when Rib (Cat) Died. She was precious existence to the main Characters and to us. They should have added tragedy tag for killing one of our (MY) favorite Character/Animal.

I cried even harder when after Rib's death MC was telling ML, he would definitely fine someone else and be happy with them and ML to not care about him and then suddenly he brust into tear hugging ML asking him to consider him for one last time......... dude that emotion was so well and so beautifully written, I just couldn't stop my tears from flowing.
At that time, my soul was screaming to accept MC and not let him go. His 1st love was right before him and him unable to recognize it and even hurt MC feeling...... ufffffffffff
Even if MC wasn't his first love, I swear I wouldn't have minded him going back to his promises and accept MC.

But well, ML didn't and actually it was good that he didn't. I love ML who are loyal to their lover to death or even after death and I don't usually like typical tropes of replacing old one with new one. Being Substitute of other. If ML had accepted MC at tha time, it would have looked like that

[collapse]

I personally prefer character like ML. His love and faithfulness for his lover. I love how he ultimately stick to wait for his lover despite the temptation (mc)...... That too the lover he had spend time together for only 3 months and waited for 16 years. The dedication toh..... ufffff. Not that I don't like or support 'move on' and 'new love', I also like that very much but concept like loving only one person till death, remaining faithful to their lover even after their death..... this kind of people really attract me so much.
Though this time it was also bit sad, annoying and frustrating
Spoiler

because the other person involve was MC and ML was at fault with his misleading action...... how can anyone not fall for such treatment and actions..... very misleading and the most frustrating is that MC being the one he's waiting for but he couldn't recognize and hurted MC feeling

[collapse]

I saw a lots of negative comments on MC being green tea b*tch, selling misery and manipulating ML........... and although he was at first and I also didn't like it much, but I can understand and feel his actions though it was not right, it was necessary for his revenge. Honestly, The revenge was his 1st priority and so this was bound to happen...... so, what if he did used ML to obtain it easily, he didn't harmed ML (mentally or physically), it was not like ML loved him at that time and MC was using or playing with ML feelings. He was just using ML kindness towards him. plus he did regret his action and felt guilty for lying to ML. Also Later He fell for ML first and really hard and his feeling were genuine and he also suffer some setbacks.

Overall, it was a good read to me. Full of Emotions. Though the ending was bit rushed and it could have been better, it was a very satisfying ending novel.

*wiping tears* Finally the HE they truly deserve.

There's fluff but not too much, there's angst and a lot of familial drama/conflict on MC's side (the rotten family btw). The MC went through so much but now he has a loving and fulfilling life with the ML❤. But I feel that the ML suffered so much as well while waiting for his beloved to return. Anyway, they both deserve a happy life together since both went through a lot of pain and suffering and made a huge sacrifice.

Also this story... more>> is not actually for beginners who hasn't read rebirths/system/transmigration thingy, it might get a little bit confusing for sure.

ALL I WANT RIGHT NOW IS TO BUNDLE UP MC AND ML TOGETHER AND GIVE THEM ALL THE LIVE AND PRECIOUS THINGS IN THE WORLD OKAY???!!!!

They suffered too much in both of their lives that I need to see more of their fluffy, domesticated life for my weeping heart to be happy 😭❤️

I have a fragile heart so even if this novel has a happy ending, the sweetness between the couple throughout the end doesn't erase all those horrible feelings when I'm reading the couple's suffering. How I wish there... more>> were more extra like adopting a new cat or something 😔 now I must ready a fluffy novel to heal my heart. I should've read the novel Filthy Rich Hamster in the Apocalypse after this novel instead of before *sigh*

I'm sure many people would love this esp. Who loves torturing themselves so it's a must read!! <<less

This is such a hidden gem. At first I thought it would just be similar to all the generic stories out there about revenge and regression but the plot in the later chapters starts to pick up and you start to feel so many emotions. I felt happy, sad, angry, and most importantly cried a lot especially in the later chapters. You get to experience all the raw emotions that come with heartbreak, parting, reuniting, with the main character and his beloved Mr. Lu. They both are not perfect but... more>> that's the beauty of this novel. I literally finished this in just two days. If you still feel apprehensive about reading this novel, then you're missing on this piece of art big time. <<less

This is, I dare say, one of the best novels I've ever read. The MC is not at all some op sh*t, everything got reasons, and he have to pay heavy prices for everything. MC also able to survive on his own, not really reliant on ML, tho ofc ML makes it easier. I love how both MC and ML didn't immediately become "love at first sight" like some of the common troupe, and how ML is very very loyal without all those substitute white moonlight stuff. MC and ML... more>> obviously have their own principles, and stand by them.

Some added notes, I cried a whole lot from the start of the story until halfway because of the desperation and depression felt and experienced by MC and ML. I remember reading the reviews with someone saying they used up three whole Kleenex or something and I agree as I almost drenched my blanket and pillow. So be prepared, I guess.

Also, RIBS THE CAT, RIBS THE CAT, RIBS THE CAT (important things have to be said thrice). She's one of the reasons I cried buckets. I love her a whole lot as she loved MC so much and recognized him immediately even without him remembering her.

The translation was amazing, I really applaud the translator, and the writer weave the story so flawlessly that I felt fulfilled and satisfied after finishing the story.

I recommend potential readers to read it when you need a good stibby stabby straight to the kokoro, a bit of salt to the wound, rub it in, and then get comforted with a soft blanket in front of a fireplace in the winter with a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows. Oddly specific, but I hope you can enjoy the whole ride, cos I did to the point I finished everything in a day. <<less
