An alright novel just enough for the short content.

The story main focus was on their bonding. MC was the typical sunny and popular guy. To be honest, he was very ML-ish at the first half of the story. He's the one to approach the ML, got attracted, and chase. He spoiled him, tease him, cared for him and protected him.

As for the ML, he's the silent and enduring guy. I wouldn't say timid, just that he's numb and doesn't care for others.

Their relationship was sweet although with a little sense... more>> of unbalance. MC's the active one chasing ML around while ML slowly let him in. You could say mostly that since MC have more initiative, the rein in their relationship is also in his hands. But this wasn't so obvious as the ML can also be stubborn.

Later, they change dynamics in which ML turn domineering and now have the reins. You could say that the two were always in an unbalanced relationship but with the short story, it's the best that works for them. And really, their personalities were at the opposite of each end.

I'm in awe at the Author's writing to be honest. ML's and MC's good and sweet traits were shown to be flaws as well.

Spoiler

Like for MC, he was nice and sweet, and really like a sunny little prince. This was his good traits and also what makes him able to move ML. But it also his greatest flaw. He was too soft and sheltered that he couldn't really stand up for ML.

Before ML's change in personality and identity. MC's friend Song schemed for ML to be r@ped. Later, ML returned blackened and broke his legs. There's a small misunderstanding here as MC find that the soft bullied boy turn out to be a domineering bad wolf. When the truth came out, MC was lecturing ML on why he didn't say it so that they could solve it.

Anyway, he still have awkward friendship with Song.

MC have another friend Wang who was smarter and later confronted ML why he ultimately send friend Song abroad. ML then said that others may think he is the most important for MC but in truth, others also have a heavy weight on MC's heart. MC can say they will fix it, he will protect ML and won't allow him to be bullied. But MC cannot say to break his relationship with Frriend Song. Maybe it's ok today, but given a few chance, he will feel sorry for Song who has been limping.

I can't exactly explain it, but you could feel the instability MC have. Specially compare to ML who now have many enemies and many wanting to kill him. Tbh, if my friend wanted someone to r@pe my S.O, forget broken legs, I'll break his junior. It was ok since ML got taken back to his family. But if he wasn't, he might be taken to the police for excessive defense and the initiator jumping happily.

Now that I'm talking about it, it actually makes me so irritable. Yeah Song was his childhood friend but fvk that. How could MC not think it's a huge thing that this guy plan so meticulously to lure him away and then make someone catch ML. This guy even plan so well, he find someone else as a partner and have this partner be the scapegoat if MC found out.

It was no wonder that so many things were happening in ML's family but ML never talked to MC about it.

As for ML, he has always been a stubborn guy. In fact, he was so stubborn that MC end up being the shou for him. ML was the son of a really powerful family. He was neglected and he just doesn't care anymore. But his father have other plans all along. In order to have him inherit, father move many people around MC. Anyway, they separated for a few months and ML return oh so domineering. He was so stubborn that his possessiveness just went off the roof. Well I'm kinda uncomfortable with the transition but it's understandable. He was bullied so badly if I may say. But it's kinda frustrating how a 17yrs old took over a huge company in a matter of months! And then went back!

[collapse]

The story end with a... open ending? There are many more things that can be developed and I feel that the mains relationship dynamics isn't fully establish but I didn't feel that it ended abruptly, just at the right pace. <<less

Seems very interesting so far, our MC is a nice person and gong is very introverted, often bullied in school which resulted in his gloomy personality. Looking forward to this novel!
