Description

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

I know the future. This is a BL novel, and the boss I work for is destined to ‘imprison’ the flower shop owner. But things are taking a strange turn.

“You know, Chief Jung, you’re quite fascinating.”

A chill ran down my spine. The attention of a boss was never a good thing. Especially when said boss is the country’s top chaebol heir and had the peculiar trait of being a (soon-to-be) obsessive lover.

“Haha… What do you mean? I’m just an ordinary office worker,” I said, deliberately lowering my gaze and scratching the back of my head awkwardly as I forced a smile. “But if my efforts have helped the vice president even a little, I feel fulfilled and happy.” Subtly appealing to my diligence was a nice touch.

“No,” A cold, emotionless expression crossed my boss’s face, accompanied by a brief, inscrutable smile that quickly vanished. “It’s strange. Your face is utterly plain, yet why…?”

Is he dissatisfied with my face? If so, maybe he should pay for plastic surgery or something!

…is what I wanted to say, but I thought about my credit card bill and paycheck, and wisely kept a poker face.

“Why do you keep bothering me?”

Well, you’ve been bothering me too, but okay…

But then, his next words left me speechless.

“Date me.”

What? Why would I date you?

“Jung Juheon. Answer me.”

The (soon-to-be) obsessed CEO unexpectedly asked me to date him. Not the florist like in the original story, but me, the chief secretary.

Somebody, please save me.

An unexpectedly cute, healing, & wholesome love story. There's a few cliches, but overall it's a better take on the obsessive maniac genre than most typical toxic BLs. Let me explain:

1. The ML's tendency to get overprotective & paranoid, & his desire to lock up the MC as 'protection' is treated as an actual mental illness stemming from childhood traumas that they have to address. It's not an excuse to just forgive the ML for being too controlling & suspicious.

2. The MC is not a helpless damsel in distress, &... more>> despite what the description seems to suggest, he puts his foot down with the ML when he feels disrespected. He does tend to underestimate how evil the villains can be due to not seeing them as a threat in the original novel, but partially I blame the author for hiding the real big bad behind a bunch of incompetent clowns.

3. There's minimal conflict over them being the same gender or incompatible traits, and the MC mainly rejects the ML due to his own struggles with seeing the world as a set-in-stone novel despite things being so much better in this timeline due to his changed choices.

The MC is an unreliable narrator when talking about how much he doesn't love the ML & how he'd be just fine with being a normal employee. He's not the most emotionally savvy, but he's also not a dense black hole of oblivion like many protagonists tend to be. Their feelings get confirmed fairly quickly after he finally starts viewing the ML as a real person & not just the psycho obsessive vice president from a novel. The writing is also pretty good at letting you feel the difference.
Spoiler

Literally, you don't even know the ML's name before that pivotal chapter, around ch 60, when MC realizes he's not the character from the novel

[collapse]

Spoiler

It wasn't necessary for their happy ending so I didn't like the MC becoming an Omega that much, although it was done better with more hints and foreshadowing than the typical cliche Omegaverse - i.e. At the very beginning, it's stated that Betas becoming Omegas isn't even news anymore, and the ML was also thought to be a Beta for all of his childhood. Paradoxically, I also wished they had had a happily babies ever after since MC's trait had changed and he should have been able to get pregnant, but I guess I'll have to hope for the extras.

[collapse]

Overall an imperfect but really enjoyable read that fell into familiar tropes but wasn't too overdone, and definitely not the toxic mess that these obsessive BL novels tend to be. The current rating is too low so 5/5 <<less

The story is more or less the "transmigration-ABO: chaebol boss x secretary" trope. As such, although there are certainly heavy topics, you can pretty much see what will happen next and it becomes a light read. But cliches always hit good and that's why they're popular.

There was a surprising amount of introspection from both the ML and MC when it comes to their behavior and choices. Even the reason MC tries to reject ML was explained well. I appreciate that the author didn't just brush them off and actually gave... more>> the characters some depth. It's also nice that even though the villains were so typical, there were unexpected revelations and connections.

The progression of the ML and MC's relationship was enjoyable to read. The beginning was comedic and it even took 60 chapters for the readers to learn the ML's name. Their dynamic wasn't boring and the interactions didn't seem too ridiculous or forced.

Verdict: Plot is cute and not too complex. Tropey but fun.

Spoiler

I loved the ML and MC equally, but my favorite character ended up being the OGMC. He's adorable, funny and strong in character. I can totally see him being an MC of his own story. I also liked how he didn't get the treatment authors usually use where he ends up being the main bad guy behind the scenes or becomes the corrupted rival. He's just doing his own thing and winning in life haha.
