My Husband is Suffering from a Terminal Illness

Description

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

Xie Yang struggled in the post-apocalyptic world for many years until he was too tired to go on. Then he transmigrated into a young adult entertainment circle novel where the protagonists have easy, sweet, and satisfying lives.

The male protagonist of the novel is not just handsome and smart, he’s also reborn. The female protagonist of the novel is not only beautiful and works hard towards her dreams, she also has a cheat in her hands.

There’s a lot of male and female supporting roles, each having pretty face, nice figures and someone strong behind them. Get into any one of their bodies, and he could close his eyes and just enjoy life. But he didn’t. Instead he transmigrated into a young idol secretly married to the biggest villain of all — the male protagonist’s maternal uncle.

His title is husband but it’s more like a nurse. Because this novel’s biggest villain is a terminally ill patient who is gloomy and sick in the head (actually sick). Their marriage was to counter the bad luck (illness).

Xie Yang: Who cares if you’re the male lead, female lead, male supporting, female supporting, villain or protagonist. Get in the way of my comfortable life and you’ll die (:

This story feels like a similar world that could've been in QWTFOTD and so people have mixed opinions on it. I liked the story even with the characters being one-time-use. There were deviations from QWTFOTD that were also interesting. Overall, not a bad story at all.

So good! So well-written!

I was actually reluctant to read this at first bcs of the title... I'm not fond of BE or any kind of angst so when I saw the title, I just put it in my "To Read" list but never started it. Now I would say this book is the best.

The ML and MC of the novel is cute (so as their relationship). They occasionally banter (with ML losing lol), you can say it's a love-hate relationship. The ML is a big tsundere while the MC is... more>> a big tease. At first, the ML is the only one with power and money and everyone thought the MC is just hugging his thigh... not until he build his own business and start wiping out those who ever tried to step on his way and block him from achieving what he wants. The MC is independent and they are powerful both as individuals and as a couple. Also the MC is really smart especially in planning to make everything under his control. You can say that the universe of the book and all the characters in it are wrapped around his fingers after he entered the novel. So badass...

The thing I liked the most is the sense of equality between the MC and ML. The ML was a henpecked husband but the MC never take advantage of him. He never let anything and anyone stain the most important things/person to him.

Spoiler

In the Qiu family (family of the ML), the MC was like the guardian angel. First of all, in the original story, the Qiu family isn't rlly what you call the 'family/root of the villain'. They never did something wrong (except their relatives but the main- the ML and his mother is a good person) but run the business Rongding. The main 'villain' which is the ML was taken advantage of by his nephew and his nephew's wife (the male and female lead in the original story- I hate them btw after I understand the supposed to be original plot line of the novel he transmigrated to). You could say the original plot of the novel he transmigrated to was an anti-hero? in other terms. Anyway, him entering the Qiu family and changing their fate than following the original plot line leans in the good side than the bad side even tho they're the so-called 'villain'.

[collapse]

You'll understand more if you read it so pls read it (Don't hold back bcs of the title like I did or you'll miss out).

Moreover, the story was rlly enjoyable and the plot is well-written. No angst! No angst! No angst! And it's not BE!

ALSO THIS AUTHOR'S OTHER BOOKS IS A GOOD READ TOO! YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT! <<less

This was so f*cking good. This got one of the best perfect ending. It was such a beautiful journey.

The story was very well written for me. The characters.... the plot..... the world building and the reason, everything was done so well. Usually I have lots of question or doubt that are not answered or cleared but in this one everything got cleared as we got near the end.... more>>
Spoiler

I really love how we didn't went to the dept of the story related with system but also didn't ignored it completely..... like we got the basic clue and reason for system existence.

[collapse]

Love the CP..... Tsundere gong X Mischievous Shou (I love this kind of pair so much). Though the romance was slow..... it was one of the best Romance.

MC is one of my favorite MC. I love his strong personality.... love how badass and frank he is, love how smart and cautious he is while dealing with enemy. I also love that he's the active one in relationship.

ML despite being an overbearing type he's actually very mature and sensible character who really respect his lover. I love how he's very shy when it comes to flirting and love matters.

Also this novel got very good face slapping moments.

Now I got another author in my favorite author collection......... also, just noticed that he's also the author of one useless Rebirth (another Rebirth story I really enjoyed❤️)

Lastly, thanks to the translator for translating this novel. <<less

I've read this novel twice (or thrice?) : once mtled, when translator updated again I read and mtl again? or not?, and now completed translated version again.

I have to say that

  • This story's plotline is well planned.
    Spoiler

    MC's transimgrated into the book and all the charactors in the book are in the setting and almost no plothole.

    [collapse]
  • MC-MLs' love interest is so cute, so sweet, can handle each other's personalities.
  • Spoiler

    MC, Xie Yang, tho deals with the book's protagonists... mainly female protagonist, Mu Zhou Yi, he don't step out of the limit until that person provokes him. So when FL provoked him tho.. all he does was protecting himself and the ones he cares. Even when FL has been lowest, he didn't hit her hard, just solve the problems cleverly.

    [collapse]
I saw someone say about MC's charactor that no one notices he changed, if you saw this I didn't mean to offend you, but it's just that original owner knew nobody and no one cares about original owner. All the friends MC got was after his transimigration and only person that could have noticed MC's changed was the former agent. (But that guys too do not have much contact with original owner so....)

I strongly recommend this book for ones who loves fluff, sweet and warm family stuff. The author gripped the every single things or events or charactors in well controlled and creat this book. And thanks the translator for bringing us this beautiful novel to us. Bless you.

TOTALLY WORTH IT

This story is raises main plot about entertainment world, and as we know plots about the entertainment world usually have the same general topic. But in this book there are other elements that make the story different (Although it is not something extraordinary, it is still an element which is rarely found in other common stories)

For me, this story was really moving and have a lot of things that make it fun to read. The reason is due to the nature of ML where he has a... more>> tsundere nature who followed by a clumsy and shy nature.

Although I think there are still some clichés about some minor characters, the secrets behind the system and the reasons for transmigrating. But I think it wasn't something that really got in the way of the main plot and ruined the story, so it could actually be seen as a passing thing.
Spoiler

Even MC himself hinted that he didn't really care about the mystery of the system when he managed to swallow the last pieces of system data.

[collapse]

And this is was my favorite part in the whole story... 😭😭😭

Spoiler

Qiu Xing lowered his head and allowed Xie Yang to act. Mother Qiu and Qiu Xing were calm while Xie Yang's expression was relaxed. He even smiled while teasing Qiu Xing's hair. It was obviously a very warm scene but Feng Qinglin was inexplicably sad.

[collapse]

Here the other of my fav part😭😭😭

Spoiler

In the first photo, Xie Yang sat on a chair in the rest area of the coldly lit police station with unbearable fatigue in his eyes. There was a bouquet of broken roses in his arms as Qiu Xing half-kneeled in front of him, bald, thin and in a hospital gown. The two of them stared at each other and their eyes made people feel sad.

In the second photo, in a corner of the brightly lit and warm auditorium, Xie Yang had finished the wedding ceremony and sat on a chair with a large bouquet of champagne roses in his arms. Qiu Xing was half-kneeling in front of him and reached out to help him tidy his hair with gentle eyes. The two of them stared at each other and the scene was so happy that people couldn't help smiling.

The one who posted the photo was a small blogger and she added the text: I watched you go from the hospital gown to the wedding suit. The journey wasn't easy. I wish you happiness.

Netizens saw the two contrasting photos. At this moment, they no longer felt envious of the grand wedding of the two people.

Instead, they envied their love.

The MC and ML interaction is really fun to read. It will make you laugh out loud. There no major misunderstanding between the couple and there is no unwanted drama. ML try to portray he is tuff but actually he is very soft inside. Some people might not like this novel as the MC is too OP and it’s like he can predict everything that will happen; and some time it’s too much (one will when you read it). But it was fun to read for me as I don’t... more>> use much of logic to read novels and some will disappoint you.

Just finished reading the novel. The faceslapping is satisfying. Unlike some novels that the problems need many chapters to resolve, this novel's not. The MC is calculating. He knows the very move of people who wants to harm them. All in all, it's a good read.

Tsundere gong x cunning shou.

Sheet, I love yang yang so mush he is so cunning and calculative his tongue is too sharp! I love how he can be patient with the tsundere gong.

The writing of the story gives me goosebumps especially when its about Xie Yang acting and music.

Spoiler

When Yang yang sang the reincarnation song I imagine him sitting in the broken window and writing a song also at the back of the car while driving pass some zombie and him suddenly going to this peaceful world being amaze. Having hope and peace. Dang just how much of pain and endurance yang yang experienced in the apocalypse for him to endure his throbbing brain and nausea and perform normally. I'm guessing Long Shuyou has perfect pitch.

This is one of the stories where it feels like there is a divide in slight quality between the 1st & 2nd part. To be fair overall it's still good.

However I'm not sure if it's just me but the first part was better paced out and more interestingly written than the 2nd part.

There is a sense of the 2nd end half ish being dragged out as if the author themselves didn't know how to end it. I think it bothered me that Yang's own company, artists, the nephew, and people... more>> we got to know in the 1st part felt meaningless and almost non-existent compared to the MC & ML. Its a feeling of ok so you're just gonna throw them away and give them almost no meaning near the end?

It's not bad at all. Don't get me wrong. In fact, the ending could be quite interesting if it was condensed more and I think edited more so there's less of that feeling that the author is trying to figure out how to get to the ending. I think they had a solid outline but the execution near the end felt just slightly too 2-d in writing. <<less

Don't let the sparse low reviews push you away from reading.

This is one of the few novels here that I can say is very complete in every sense. All the loose ends were tied together in a satisfying ending. Both the MC and ML experience actual character growth through the story until the very end.

... more>>
Spoiler

The ML, Qui Ying, is your overbearing CEO, but! With a twist, he's a rare pokemon that has growth throughout the story. He's not omnipotent. He's vulnerable. He's sensitive. He is self destructing levels of considerate. He's not your average wolfish ML that only knows how to treat his partner like a damsel and only thinks about s*x all the time. Dare I say it. He has layers.

He's a tsundere, sure, but he's like that for a viable reason. He doesn't want people to close to him because he doesn't want to hurt them long term. From the very start of the novel, it's clear that he's already resigned to the fact that he's going to die.

This man's life is so tragic. He deserved the happy ending the novel gave him.

[collapse]

This is an entertainment business novel. So, read with the expectation that there will be a lot of netizen/ weibo interludes- which I personally enjoyed reading. Almost all of the instances which feature them are used to push the story forward.

Spoiler

My own personal interpretation:

Excuse me for purple prosing, but I totally believe that the movie the MC acted in Crazy Musician was a foreshadowing for the third act's villain. The pe*verted artist that hid in the shadows, gaining inspiration from the macabre.

Tao Yang was definitely not a character I expected to find in an entertainment type novel. His level of antagonism is more of what you would typically see in a mystery novel. Had he been a serial killer instead of a pe*verted artist, he could have made a very terrifying character. The levels he went to hide his every action just to see the five seconds of despair on the ML's face is beyond unnerving.

And, if I'm correct, and the movie was a foreshadowing of events, then it's only natural to assume that the true mu*derer all along was the System.

Something I liked about the explanation of the system's origins is that it's not clear whether the MC was transmigrated into an actual novel or into an alternate world, and the novel was simply a fabricated prophetic reading sent as the world's collective consciousness's last sort of salvation. Here take this, obstruct the system. Keep my world from becoming an apocalyptical one like yours.

Truly great!

MC is a mary sue. A huge one. He has so many unexplained skills. Alone, these skills are acceptable. Together, it's just unreasonable.

Some serious topics are skipping over like nothing. For example, the MC's father sold him. This is unacceptable, but the father is let off. The MC's father is even supported by the ML. It's disgusting.

Half this story is just the netizens saying how cool the MC is.

MC becomes a CEO of his own entertainment company. He says it's much more calming to be a boss. But, he keeps... more>> doing all the things an idol will do: acting in movies, singing in concerts, modelling, etc..

MC and ML are both strong characters, without a doubt. I especially love how MC was straightforward and was not afraid to show his feelings for the ML. It's really not a typical characteristics you find in a BL story. He wasn't hesitant when accepting his feelings for ML. His actions spoke for itself.

Yes! This is EXACTLY what a reverse villain transmigration story should be. The main character doesn't just directly replace the protagonist, instead, he highlights all the flaws of the original protagonist's golden finger and easy success. He doesn't try to capture a bunch of love targets, or use people for his own good. Everyone he befriends are just friends; if they help him, it's the kind of help a friend might extend. If they give him excessive help, it's because of their own self interest, not some inexplicable burning love... more>> for him.

I like the slow love that develops between the main character and the former villain. They don't magically fall in love with each other, but instead tentatively circle each other, live with each other, come to notice and like each other, and realize that they want more. Their relationship isn't smooth, and just like a relationship in real life, it requires work from them both. The villain learns to express his love openly, and the main character learns that he doesn't have to rely on just himself. They continue to have lives and talents independent of each other. They never become that boring couple that make each other the center of their lives. Rather, they both live in harmony, doing their own thing, creating their own career, but still finding ways to support each other when needed. I love the perfect balance of independence and dependence this couple manages to maintain throughout this book.

The other thing I love about this book is how suspicious it is of something that's too good to be true. It doesn't take the system at face value, apparent friends at their word, or even the transmigration as mere magic. I love how tidily the author ties together the supernatural parts of the story.

Spoiler

The apocalypse world that the main character came from is actually a world that has already been destroyed by an energy-gathering system like the love value system. These systems help people aquire love while they're alive, so they can gather the maximum grief energy when they die. These systems were sent out from a world that s**ked up all the energy of its inhabitants in order to survive. Finally, a rogue system infected with another world's consciousness tries to fight back by finding people with abilities to send into worlds infected by the system. By having these people capture and infect the system with their abilities before the system returns to the main world, they are helping to poison the main system, and will hopefully eventually end the energy harvesting.

[collapse]

Of course, I don't think this book is perfect. There is an evil genius villain who I think is not very realistic. He's too much a stereotype of the crazy, genius artist.

The portrayal of survival as a matter of will and medicine was also a bit overly optimistic in my opinion. I think it is very reasonable for a person with terminal cancer, cong**ital problems, and heart disease to not seek aggressive treatment. The book portrays the villain as a bit of a coward for this decision, but he has a terminal illness, with very low chances of surviving even with treatment. Aggressive treatments will typically make the patient feel horrible. He's giving up a ~1% chance of recovery with treatment in order to use his remaining time to prepare his family for success. Without the main character's ability, undergoing treatments would most likely mean the villain wouldn't be able to work and live normally even for the short remaining time he has. In a book, the main character refusing to plan for the worst and constantly urging the villain to reluctantly undergo treatment is fine. In the real world, this would be considered manipulative and foolhardy. Thank goodness this is a book.

Overall, I loved this story. It's heartwarming and shows characters that grow and find a sweet love against all odds. It teaches us that nothing comes for free, and if you want a happy ending, you should put in the effort. <<less

Amazing. I read it all in one go. The love is so sweet and enduring, it came slowly and grew with time, understanding and a lot of work from both parties. There is so much respect between the MC and the ML.

And really it is comedy gold. Their bickering is short, funny, and sweet. The tsundere of the ML is the real kind 🤣 not abusive, but shy and awkward; the type to reply “Lawless” to shows of affection. It’s adorable.

It should have felt like a long read but once... more>> it ended, it didn’t feel long at all. I wish I could’ve read 100 more chapters. The translation quality is as expected from Rainbow Turtle: excellent. <<less

One if the best transmigration stories have ever read!

The plot at first seem like average transmigration story, with the villian having system but when read it further you realize the actual impact of the system even on the villian and its also quite pitiful for the villian. The protagonist is smart and bit OP but never in extreme way. The ML gives the MC space and lets the MC figure out this his own problem. The villains are amazing, they actually gave a hard for MC to even find them... more>> and figure them out. It been a really long time seen such a good villain. The book has consistent pace and you can see the character development in every character including the villains! Truly I will never stop praising how good the villian are, there are truly interesting. Even after they lost everything, they still gave a really hard for protagonist to find them. The MC is cold hearted but he knows when and to who to show compassion. The ML is tsudere even in end of book he still remains as tsundere but you feel his love and passion for the MC. The MC in similar form, you feel the love and passive for ML and how much they love each. Truly honey stacking sweet in the end. The cannon folder also quite contribute quite a bit in the development of plot and progress, all the cannon folder are clue to finding the villian but it's never 100% correct which makes the plot very interesting and makes want to read the next character.

My final thoughts in this book would be that it quite the interesting book, from the protagonist to villains to cannon folders. I would highly recommend reading it. <<less
