Description

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

As a rising Formula One race car driver, Ye Ci had always been criticized.

“Aloof and indifferent, unable to be reasoned with.”

“Suspected to have a mental illness, is this person really suitable for the track?”

“He doesn’t really love the sport, racing is just his way of venting his violent emotions.”

Huo Tinglan’s demeanor was always elegant and protective in front of the media, and he said that his husband was just quiet and introverted. After five years of marriage, they respected each other and were quite harmonious.

It was not until Ye Ci died unexpectedly during a race that Huo Tinglan gradually realized . . . . . .

He wasn’t quiet and introverted, but instead lifeless. Before finding his refuge, Ye Ci had gone through too many dark and painful moments.

After enduring years of suffering and longing, Huo Tinglan was unexpectedly reborn. Ye Ci was only eighteen years old this year, and everything was within reach.

Huo Tinglan was cheeky and went directly to his door to ask for a kiss.

In my defense, I was conned by the synopsis.

I expected Ye Ci to be assertive, cold, and mature, especially considering how he was portrayed as a fierce racer and a strong, ruthless fighter in the starting chapters. Instead we get a weak, quivering kitten who seems like he'd melt into a puddle of embarrassed/nervous tears or faint each time Huo Tinglan opens his mouth.

Ye Ci's age being 18 only seems to be so the 30 years old Huo Tinglan wouldn't be committing a crime when he lusts after him. In... more>> reality, Ye Ci comes off as a child entering puberty who's confused and uncomfortable with the changes occurring to his body as he is in the process of going through his second differentiation into an omega from an alpha. He's nowhere near being a mature adult ready to contemplate a lifelong relationship. So him panicking when he was suddenly married off to a much older stranger as 'medicine' for that alpha's susceptible period is understandable.

Huo Tinglan, as we're repeatedly shown, is really excited to take advantage of his new husband's vulnerable condition while pretending to be a decent gentleman uninterested in him so that Ye Ci will let down his guard. Reading how Huo Tinglan hides his lust and tailors his behavior to best manipulate the unknowing Ye Ci into trusting him is kind of disturbing. It's repeatedly emphasized how Huo Tinglan is attracted to Ye Ci's innocence, purity, immaturity, and inexperience, basically all his childlike qualities, making him seem like a downright p*do sometimes. The gap in their maturity is also repeatedly emphasized.

To his credit, Huo Tinglan does always stop himself with great effort before pushing Ye Ci too far, at least to the point I've read. But the fact that his desires are so fierce towards the young Ye Ci in his current vulnerable state, to the point that Huo Tinglan has to exert such a remarkable amount of willpower to stop, is kind of concerning. His care and protectiveness towards Ye Ci and his future is still undeniable though.

I can see why aspects of this type of romance can be enjoyable to a lot of readers. I also enjoy an occasional age-gap BL. But unfortunately this just made me uncomfortable and is clearly not for me. <<less

Sooo MC and ML are a married couple. They're in love with each other so when the MC died, ML was devastated.

Then, ML suddenly wakes up to 5 years or so earlier (when he and MC haven't met and MC was at the lowest point of his life)

MC is 18 now and ML is 30 so I can't help but think that what ML's doing is kinda like 'grooming'

I get that MC is experiencing a lot of bad things at 18 and ML wants to help him. I also... more>> get that ML doesn't want MC to think that he's just a 'family member' so he kinda makes little moves that makes the MC like him but yeah I do feel like that's grooming someone

Anyhooo, the story's pretty laid back with a porcupine MC in the beginning but when he fell in love with ML, his spikes become soft and gentle.

A lot might say that MC's personality changed but I think it's only when he is with ML (which we only get to see since the novel doesn't really show much of his interaction with other people aside from ML or people closely related to ML). After all, he's fallen in love and people in love would tend to be soft and not put on a brave front anymore in front of the person who loves them.

Soooo the story becomes quite cliche after some chaps... a porcupine MC and a gentleman ML (with a bit of bad side)... turns into a gentle MC and a pampering ML

So yeah, I'm stopping at chap 40 cause there's no excitement for me anymore

But you can go and give this a read, compared to other novels, I do recommend this for light reading <<less

I really like this series... Huo Tinglan is quite the pe*vert (both in the honey and paranoid senses) but he takes so much care to protect and respect his baby that even when he’s being a downright horndog it still drips honey everywhere lol.

The families are also particularly good (of course, because Ye Ci’s only family is his mom, otherwise it would be a different story), and I really like how it was constructed.

HTL’s insistence on YC’s education is also quite funny and sweet lol.

Good, quick read, very funny and... more>> sweet. <<less

Alright I'm done reading! Don't want to continue. Sooo plain, sooo boring. Gosh.. the summary made me pick up this story, well... strong omega character is always my cuppa coffee. I'm also fine with weak one but ayyaaaa... this one is totally out of the list; fierce and crazy and as strong as bull on track but a salted fish, weak as newborn kitten when he's with HTL. Seems like the author wants to tell me 'pity Ye Chi, he's been through a lot of childhood trauma, he deserve to... more>> be loved.. so never mind his switched personality' and it annoys me. Lke c'mon.. this not the first story of male alpha turn omega or poor and parentless omega i've had read but non as dissapointing as this character, a weak cry baby🙄. I thought I would be reading a story about an amazing and fierce omega racer but naaaaah. Not my taste, but for those who loves slice of life and light story this is for you. <<less

It's almost like reading Beloved Marriage in the High Society. A mentally closed off young shou with a much older gong. Only, the gong here is a reborn person pining for his jagged, experienced, closed off lover in the previous birth. There was a line where Ye Ci, the baby shou thought that Huo wasn't looking at him when he was looking at him, as if he was looking at someone else. This line only came up once, which made the story a bit incomplete even with all the extras,... more>> because the person whom Huo actually wanted to pamper was the Ye Ci who was his spouse for 5 years, pampering young Ye Ci was more like the "what if" situation. It means, the whole time Huo was substituting adult Ye Ci with young Ye Ci.

Moving on from that, the story was adorable with Ye Ci being sweet and pure, and creepy for Huo being downright pe*verted. Ye Ci was clearly manipulated by Huo into bed, no one can deny it, no matter how much this reason is white washed by Ye Ci's love and dependency. But I forgive Huo because he genuinely cares about Ye Ci.

I like how there wasnt any excessive face slapping for the step mother, considering how the step mother herself was a victim in this story. The original scumbag was the father, a hedonistic guy full of greed. Punishing him is more than enough.

I would've loved some buns in this story because it's omegaverse, but that dream didn't fulfill.

All in all, it's a good read. <<less

The translator did an excellent t job, it’s not their fault the story fell short

The synopsis has nothing to do with the story, except to lure those of us who like strong Omegas in. If you like blushing, stammering, innocent Omegas who are in a relationship with an Alpha almost twice their age, well this is the story for you

It’s not for me 2 stars plus 1 for translator

Didn't read the extras, lost interest by the end of main story. 4 stars is probably a bit too kind, but felt 3 stars was too low, it was still a fairly decently written story.

Generally I'm not a fan of very innocent, feminine-coded omegas who are constantly blushing and naïve, and I also dislike the trope where the shou can't initially accept the bottom position just because of his ideas about what makes a 'man', but I didn't want to give a lower rating just because of my own personal... more>> preference. But word of warning, the shou is not the strong type, he completely relies on the alpha gong, so it's a very stereotypical dynamic.

This novel lacks the humor that I find is the author's strength, and the CP were kind of boring. It's mostly because the shou is kind of generic ABO shou, late bloomer omega who initially was an alpha (seems weird that he changes secondary s*x just like that, I think this should have been explained, never came across it in other ABO novels) and then transformed into an omega and struggle initially to adjust to being of the 'feminine' s*x. I felt it was a bit abrupt when the CP finally did the deed, but then the actually s*x scene was completely censored and you only knew it was happening because it had been mentioned previously that

Spoiler

interc**rse and knotting is a part of permanent marking.

[collapse]

Regarding marking, I felt the novel should have taken it a bit more serious. In most ABO settings, marking is very serious, and a permanent mark is a lifetime decision, way more serious than marriage. So

Spoiler

I can't believe the shou didn't think a little deeper about whether he wanted the permanent mark or not, and the gong didn't explain to him what getting a permanent mark meant.

[collapse]

To me, this was irresponsible of them both, especially the gong as the older partner.

Overall there's not much to the story except handing out sweets and dogfood to the reader, doting and protective alpha gong x down-on-his-luck, poor and vulnerable omega shou. Shou undergoes a 'second puberty' during the story, which to me made the gong's attempts at getting involved with the shou a bit morally dubious. Not grooming exactly, but it did make me think that the shou was not in a position to get married considering he wasn't sexually mature at this point. Like marrying a 13-year old in real life. <<less

If you’re looking for a short and sweet story with not much drama and angst (except for the past), but not much plot either, this one’s for you. Just turn off that brain of yours and read it. I’m giving it a 4 stars because I really need it these past couple of days. If it was any other time when I’m a bit more critical to what I read, then it’s gonna be rated lower.

Pure fluff with very little conflict or drama. And many river crabs.

I admit, I was bored. I wish the shou had kept a bit more of his alpha fierceness that he displayed in the early chapters. I know most of that was played off as trauma response, but it was the only interesting bit of his personality. Without giving too many spoilers, I felt that could have been handled differently.

Anyways, if you're in the mood for pure decently written fluff, enjoy.

Like others have said, the only reason it wasn't creepier was because the MC did clearly love the ML very much and did have his best interests mostly at heart, and they had been genuinely married at a point where there relationship would not have been nearly that exploitive (hopefully) so I kept comforting myself that it's fine, it's fine, he's not just a pedo, put up with, it's fine... But eventually there was just, ok, how does the MC trick the ML to go the next step, ok what... more>> about the next... It got boring. <<less

If the ML were anyone else than who he is, or any less genuine, this would be a very alarming romance.

MC is technically an adult, but nowhere near grown up mentally, and ML is a lot older than him, and possesses a lot more life experience. Fortunately, he genuinely has MC's best interests at heart in all things and loves him deeply, otherwise the power imbalance would be even more off-putting for me.

If you can ignore what seems to be a big gap in maturity between the two leads, this... more>> is a very sweet, simple story. <<less

4.5 ⭐️

Super cute. But I have to say that the MC is really a blank sheet of paper so if you enjoy reading badass and cunning MCs then maybe this is not really for you. Also, there are some reviews that mentioned that the MLs actions are like grooming. I don't disagree but at the same time, I can totally understand why he behaved in that manner after he returned to the past. Anyways he really does love and dote on the MC alot so im okay with it.

Very sticky sweet cute story.

I thought there would be a little more drama after rebirth, but everything goes smoothly for the MC, who is too clever and scheming. Read this story if you're looking for unending fluff!

Big age gap between the main leads, and the ML is just a bit too different from his OG personality shown in the beginning. There's no cold aloof character here, just a super squishy innocent teen. I wish he was able to parry back a bit more compared to the MC, but MC pretty... more>> much dominates their interactions.

But the relationship was portrayed pretty well. I just wish there was a bit more layers behind the fluff.

Translation is excellent! <<less

I didn't know before I read this that this is an omega verse story so I kind of imagine this story also if it is not omega verse or if MC remained an alpha. I also expected MC to have racing as his career, though it's okay for me too that his career path is different in the second life (well that's given) I just can't not think the WHAT IF's

BUT Overall I enjoyed and had a great time reading. &Lt;3

A Truly Complete Perfected Second Chance.

It's like usual Second Chance and not at the same time.

It's not a Slow Romance, but it wasn't rushed either.

... more>> And not like the summary, Huo Tinglan, our Alpha, is not as straight forward as the summary tried to implied.

He know how fragile Ye Ci is, even though not as fragile as the 'future past' self who had gone through more traumatic life than this Younger Ye Ci. So his step by step Courting was not rushed, but not slow either.

Ye Ci was slightly Naive, but not too THAT Naive. Huo Tinglan really know how to show himself as Gentleman. Sure it's not a Fake actions nor a Fake kindness. And Huo Tinglan, was truly tried his best to Hold back and be Patient. But because all this Gentleman actions, Ye Ci really thought his Alpha has barely have bottom line (?), so he dare himself to help his Alpha who was Enduring his big problem.

Honestly that scene was Interesting. Nothing was crossed (no s*x whatsoever) but their 'development' was faster than Huo Tinglan even expected.

Anyway, Ye Ci doesn't stay ignorance. He can see how Black Belly his husband can be. But he Love him just the same.

Beside that, this novel really gave us Great Satisfactory!

Ye Ci get the Life and Happiness he deserve! Ye Ci's Happiness is Huo Tinglan's Happiness!

Absolutely SWEET PERFECTION!!! AND I'M TRULY LOVING IT!!! <<less

3.5/5 but gonna put 4* because I don't think it deserves 3*. It's not bad and also not great. It's just not my cup of tea and some might like this. Hence, the rating.

Before anything else, lemme just say that I don't love the gong. I know his actions are coming from a loving place and good intentions but his thoughts are just icky sometimes. He screams possesive, manipulative, and maybe grooming. The age gap doesn't even covers it. I know there was a stated 12 years age gap... more>> but this man went back to the past so there might be a greater age mentality gap. Yet, this grown-ass man kept going on and on about how young, beautiful, and fresh the shou is compared to the man (shou) he married on his first timeline lyk ghorl? Get a grip. It doesn't even help that he's thinking of boinking him every chance he gets, even on the first day the shou moved in!! I know he restrains himself but the way he acts somewhat manipulative to the shou and creating chances to "tease" the shou? Girly, it's good that he knows that he's a pe*verted b*tch.

The first chapters, imho, is good but as the story progress it just fell flat. I prefer the attitude of the shou before the reincarnation happened and I thought that was what I was gonna experience reading this. Actually the first few chapters before he met the gong and he did some racing hooked me. Idk what happened that he changed so fast into a naive and timid child. The story said that he grew up fighting and building that cold ass persona because he neeeds to protect his mom and all but what happened?? He had that internal struggle of not accepting becoming an omega and having to come to terms that he's an omega but it wasn't written as convincing. I said this because, even the first moment he had with the gong, immediately timid and naive. He was just made with clashing personalities, I guess.

Actually, while reading the story, it's kinda hard to picture the shou as an adult coz he doesn't act like an adult or 18 for the matter. Maybe on the first fews but when during the duration he is with the gong?? A literal child. It doesn't help that the gong describes him as pure and young. Idk if its because of how the author wrote the stutterings or just how he acted that made him appear younger than he is.

I'm kinda disappointed that the racing aspect which was vital to the old shou's character was removed in this timeline just because. I guess it's because he doesn't need to have that outlet anymore since he doesn't need to vent anything which is for the best buuttt he seemed so cool during those times!

Anyways, this was a light read that doesn't really offer anything but fluffs and some 'teasings'. It wasn't a slow burn which I wished it was. I personally think it progressed so fast, it already became boring for me by the 30+ chapters.

I didn't read the extras so I don't know if it offers some fun tidbits. BUT! I'm just gonna say that the last chapter with the shou going to school away from the gong where he showed his strengths that he possessed as an ex-alpha?? Love that for him! <<less

The story is good, it is rare to find an alpah as gentle and understanding as Huo Tinglan who can even hold her own. For an omegavers world setting this is a very good story.

Although it is a bit lacking in the part of what if Ye Chi also remembers the past life, but I think with an ending like this it is also good, YC will not feel a bit of the previous life.

Huo Tinglan is the best ML for now, he is possessive but still buys free space... more>> for her partner, much needed as a role model for other danmei ML stories. <<less

It's not too great but it was good... There are ofcourse rare pieces which have no room for improvement.. But I still like this one.

I like that most of the time ML choose to be rational. Because if one see perspective of real-life occurrence they may try to to secure person as much as possible might choose irrational way of doing things.

I like the approach and it was good one. We all know it's not eady to create masterpiece and it's not important either.

I honestly expected a little bit more but it's just like those age gap stories where the younger shou is borderline infantilized. The characters here though have a little bit more personality but that's about it. The plot is just so-so. Nothing significant truly happens. The writing was interesting in the beginning but the quality deteriorated as the story progressed. Even important events were glossed over with chunks of text. It seems like the author was keen on ending it as soon as possible.

This series was cute and fluffy. Hou Tinglan was a devoted and doting lover to his husband. You can also see the development in Ye Ci and how he slowly accepts the love of his husband, learning that he can also give love despite of all the things happened in the past.
