My Nemesis Has Finally Gone Bankrupt

Description

The nemesis that Ji Ran had been unable to stand for many years has finally gone bankrupt.

All his scoundrel friends asked him, what now?

Ji Ran laughed coldly, you still have to f*cking ask him?

Of course, it’s to use this opportunity to torment, humiliate, and trample upon him.

Therefore, Ji Ran waved an arm and threw a card towards his nemesis in mad glee, saying that he’d ‘sponsor’ him.

However, the next day, he sat up in bed with a dumbfounded expression. Feeling a sore ache in his body, he recalled the bitterness of last night, as well as their ‘fight’ and the tears he’d wept…

F*ck your mom.

Motherf*cker.

Qin Man, you dog, I’ll kill you!

MC: Ji Ran

ML: Qin Man

The quintessential tsundere shou paired with the devoted pup, actually a wolf, gong. It’s a classic dynamic, and when classics are done right, they work for a reason. This was such an enjoyable read.

Ji Ran is a spitfire. He’s a really fun, layered character. I honestly expected him to be annoying and self-righteous, but he’s actually so endearing. He complains about everything, but in the end, he always does what his shixiong, Qin Man, asks him to. And he does it with so much attitude that... more>> it becomes hilarious.

He’s like the cutest, most prideful kitten, walking around flashing his claws at everyone. But if you’re sad, he’ll quietly meow and let you pet him. Of course, you can’t just pet him, he bites. But if he chooses you, you’re done for. I’m so soft for this character. You just want to hide him away and protect him. And yet, he’s incredibly strong. Not in a dramatic, over-the-top way, but in how he carries himself. He’s the complete opposite of a damsel in distress, and still, completely adorable.

I loved their interactions. So funny and full of charm. Ji Ran actually reminded me a bit of Hiroki Kamijou (Hiro-San) from Junjou Romantica when it comes to the adorable but prickly vibe.

The best friend bond was another highlight. I always appreciate when authors take the time to write solid, meaningful friendships, and this one felt real. Ji Ran was an amazing friend.

One thing I loved about Ji Ran is how straightforward he is. Sure, he has tsundere and slightly oblivious tendencies, especially when it comes to Qin Man’s feelings, but he’s always honest about the important things. He doesn’t beat around the bush. He gets to the point, and I respect that so much.

The number of times I smiled thinking, “God, Ji Ran is adorable, ” was probably the same number as Qin Man. The author really lets us see Ji Ran through Qin Man’s eyes, and it works. He’s the perfect tsundere. And you know what? That kind of character can easily become irritating if not done right. But not here. The author added just the right element to balance him—she made him emotionally direct. So it never gets wishy-washy or frustrating.

And wow, Ji Ran is badass. The way he handles his family issues really struck me. I think he made the right call by choosing to stay away. There’s not much face-slapping or revenge, which I found refreshing. It felt realistic, and honestly, it was enough.

I didn’t expect to like this novel as much as I did, but I truly adored it. The author also doesn’t forget the little details, those random moments that give the story continuity and flow. It’s that kind of attention that makes everything feel natural and cohesive.

Absolutely adored it. <<less

This story is just as the summary/title, MC trying to irritateML by proposing to support him but oops he drank a lot and end up having a night stand with ML! So they establish a kind of financial-benefit-keptMan between them. This MC is very different from the other MCs of this author that I read (Yan Yan, Jing Huan). But I like him, He has a temper but so soft hearted*aww* (-_-). He is a whole book : you will laugh so much at his teasings, get annoyed sometimes at his sarcasm and be sad for him when he's being bullied.. He smart, so capable, and so fierce haha (I love powerful mc).

This ML is a cunning one! He acts so obedient, poor and fragile in front of MC but he is a cold tiger to other people but not in bad way though. He cute and calm and don't get mad at MC (find everything MC does Cute and funny) haaha.What I love most about him is that he puts the desires of MC first and always try to do everything to satisfy him, I feel that usually The Mls/Semes in novels just care mainly about their own pleasures and fills but this one was described a bit different which I like . But is he a masochist? Loving all this suffering.haha lol anyway..

Spoiler

ML is not bankrupt, Well he is not him.. He has his reason for letting MC misunderstand, >_< He is so lovestruck abt MC

[collapse]

and the interactions when they got together were cute (*_*)

Finally poor Mc'best friend Cheng! Luckily he got his man and his HE, cute side couple!

At first, you might find the novel it cliche but it is interesting after: face slapping, fluffiness and drama!. Definitely recommend, light and Good read!

This is more of your traditional dog blood drama BL novel.

Like any traditional dog blood drama, there's misunderstandings, family infighting, schemes, and love rivals adding sources of conflict to the plot. None of this is anything new or extraordinary.

However, what makes this novel shine is that the characterizations are very strong. MC is the despotic green-haired (lol), hated illegitimate child of a high powered family. He's not a good person. He smokes, drinks, gets in fights, and is generally good at nothing. And he knows it. However, he sticks to... more>> his own convictions and is not afraid to confront those who challenge him.

On the other hand, ML is a former Mr. Perfect who takes full advantage of MC's conditions. Towards MC, he is relenting and forgiving, although to others, he's a ruthless businessman.

Although other reviews have characterized him as someone who willingly underwent bankruptcy in order to chase MC, that's not really the case.

Spoiler

Actually, ML's father willingly underwent bankruptcy because he didn't want to drag down his wife and son. ML was intending to start up his company immediately but held off after MC slapped him in the face with an Amex Black Card. Since ML was already in love with MC, he decided to pretend being bankrupt a little longer to stay by MC's side but it's not as if becoming bankrupt was part of his schemes.

[collapse]

The side characters are MC's true bros and the extras involve one of their CPs. While I can't say they have the best personalities, they were great friends.

Spoiler

Yue Wenwen is a big hot mess. He's an unwilling construction worker by day, drag queen by night. Lord knows if he ever got his life together.

Cheng Peng, the scummiest of gongs, gets over the white lotus who screwed him over serves you right you big bag of dicks and ends up together with the devoted shou that he doesn't deserve.

MC is rude and short temper, school bully image. He treat stranger like shit, only being nice with trust friends, Very real rude guy.

ML is cool and aloof image but he sell miserable to hook up with MC. Being cheap and sell well hahaha and I think he have stalker tendency....

MC soft heart toward ml.

... more>> It well writing. I love this author work. No any boring drag out. It wrap up well but I like fairy happy ending so the ending a bit lacking for me (it's peaceful ending type).

I really enjoyed this, recommend it.

Ps. l like wanwan guy sadly no extra story of him. <<less

This one is a good story if you just want to find something fluffy and funny to read. The romance and the dog blood drama makes it a bit boring.

But here are some reasons that I feel like it's even more boring for me personally. It's not like a spoiler but I'll just put it in a spoiler box so if you chance upon this it'll not ruin your desire to try.

... more>>
Spoiler

I don't really like the ML way of courting the ml, from the other reviews they found this cute but for me I feel like the ML is too much. He just cheat his way to somebody life using the other person naivety and kindness (s*upidity?). From the first chapter you can see that both of them has slept together but even if it's actually the MC who said he'll sponset him, the ML just make his way and sleep with the MC. He's a little bit manipulative too, in some chapters you can see that he'd use any scheme to get the MC agree with him while it seems like a cat playing with a mouse. As I mtl further to 30+ chapters I started to feel that the story itself is very boring. Especially, the antic back and force between the two main characters, it looks as if this story is without plot. More than ever, the story doesn't shows the MC good point (or I haven't reach that stage yet?), anyway it's a little disappointing. I still feel it somewhat lacking.

Anyway good story if you just want to see sth new and relaxing, but I feel like I've read too many story that this kind of plot is (boring?).

However, don't mind me try to digest the story yourself to see if you can enjoy it.

Basically a s*x comedy, with plenty of heartfelt moments. I died laughing especially in the first few chapters, the author really knows how to draw in a reader.

MC is a wild one, a total tsundere, vicious in his words and his actions, a ride or die kind of friend, someone who definitely puts his foot in his mouth but decides rather than embarrassment that he's just going to go in guns blazing instead. He's so entertaining to read, and the way he's straightforward about everything is very refreshing. He doesn't... more>> let misunderstandings sit and he's brutally honest. I loved how he clapped back at anyone, and went into every situation with no fear.

ML is the kind of person that is only soft for MC. Everyone loves and wants to suck up to ML but he only has MC in his eyes—the way his smile drops immediately every time MC leaves his field of sight hahaha it's hilarious watching him scheme his way into MC's life, as his intentions are very clear from the start. He's completely shameless, but very good at hiding it lol, only someone as equally as shameless as the MC could possibly handle him. The nemesis part is very clearly a one sided thing because ML is one hundred percent a simp no questions asked.

The side character besties also added so much to the story. Especially loved Yu Wenwen the crossdressing hot mess hahaha every time he was in a scene I was so so amused.

Overall a fun and lighthearted read! It'll make you laugh for sure. By sheer entertainment quality a solid 10/10. <<less

More of a 4.3 rating for me, but I'll give it a 5. One of the author's weaker works for me at least ^.^ The MC was a *bit* too tsundere for me; if it wasn't due to ML's patience and love obsession towards him, I don't think anybody would really have the perseverance to fall in love. I would've liked to see ML's story on how he managed to see past that tough exterior, and gradually fall in love, to chasing MC. I actually love the side CP the... more>> most, but it felt incomplete, it left a bitter taste for me wuuu T^T <<less

its generally a pretty predictable story, but theres a reason that the classics are the classics yanno? MC is a type of character that im finding (and loving) more and more in chinese bl; the school bully, rich second generation who would otherwise be cannon fodder x a black bellied ceo ML who is desirable and cold etc etc you know the type. I really like the development of the MC, because at first he is an unlikeable character, but as time goes on you uncover more and more about... more>> him that makes you like him but not in a way that feels forced, like I feel like you start to like him and then all this tragic stuff about his past comes up to make you understand why he is the way he is, and I like that hes not a "woe is me" character but actively tries to do things even if its super petty and mean. He does have a "moral code" as do many other characters of his type, but again even without that moral code, he would still be well liked character and man I just really want the two of them to be happy. 5 stars lol <<less

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!$#&$:3-#-#;_+$+

I didn't know this was completely translated or that it had been picked up recently 😭😭😭❤️ my heart 😭

First three chapters in, it hit me like a train. I've read this before!! And I loved it just as much as I did when it first was translated more than two years ago.

I reread Dummy Novel's awesome translations, and loved the MC even more. I'm not usually a fan of tsunderes, but when the author does it just right, they become my precious baby forever. Oh, and the ML was great... more>> too lol.

MC deserves all the good things in the world honestly, and luckily ML is the type to want to do just that. Give him the world and more.

Small TW:

Spoiler

There is some mention of victim blaming, and it's handled pretty well, but still might be triggering for some. No SA happens within the timeline of the actual story itself, but it is mentioned that it happened to MC's mom in the past and it really is very tragic what happened to her.

I enjoyed reading this story. It’s basically about the black-bellied ML who hides some truths and pretends to be poor to get a chance to be closer to the MC. The MC and ML were actually schoolmates but they were having a petty rivalry then, much like boys pulling on pigtails to get the attention of the other person. ML never expected that when his family went bankrupt that the MC would offer to support him like a sugar daddy and despite not needing the money (since he’s actually not... more>> really poor), he takes on the offer to be a sugar baby anyway. Now the ML gets to have s*x with his crush and make his crush fall in love with him!! ML is such a schemer.

Our MC on the other hand is a boy that I want to protect. Most of the time when reading this story I am filled with so much sadness whenever MC’s past is revealed.

Spoilers ahead regarding MC’s rough personality:

Spoiler

He is supposedly the illegitimate son and he grew up being bullied by his cousins and friends of his stepbrother. He had no one to protect him after his mother passed away and MC had to have a tough demeanor so that nobody would bully him. Sure, he swears alot and he is rough around the edges but that’s just his way of protecting his soft inner self. I feel so sad reading about how he suffered and is still suffering whenever his terrible grandma and father wants to make use of him.

[collapse]

Truth about MC’s mum:

Spoiler

In the end we find out that MC’s mum was actually r*ped by his father and she wasn’t the mistress after all.

[collapse]

MC had a tough time in his rich family household due to his identity. He acts like a rebellious child and has a rough personality to protect himself. I just wish there were more faceslapping moments. I also find that this novel is more “realistic”. MC had a tough childhood because of bullying and he had no power to faceslap his enemies then. Even when he grew up, it wasn’t easy for him to go against the Ji Family and it took time before he finally got his revenge and that’s with the help of the ML. It wasn’t easy for the MC, not like some novels where the OP protagonist has everything going their way. In this novel, our poor Ji Ran had to suffer so much before he finally got someone to help him and protect him.

This focuses on the romance and relationship building between the MC and ML. ML is a schemer but I understand that without him doing so, he might never have won over the MC. MC has just been hurt too many times. ML acting that way is how he made MC believe in love.

A good novel to read.

I love MC’s friends who are so loyal and true to MC. I wish the author wrote more on how these three became such good friends. <<less

Ohhh I like this one! I hated MC's family sm, well mostly dad and grandmother. Step mama may get a pass! Last two chapters (I'm not counting the extras) showed some 'interesting' things about MC's mother; Considering how much she resisted presure, she really did love him. I hope she rests in peace after 10 long years.

ML is truly shameless btw lmao, my man really is whipped for the MC.

There's quite a few stereotypes used in most danmei that aren't really used here, and that's a very good thing.

Both of the main characters are pretty tough, with neither of them taking sh*t from people they don't like. Aside from their first time, there's isn't much about the physical aspect of their relationship being painful. The standard argument about who's on top and who's on bottom isn't really made out to be a big deal. There's an active g@y community around them, with none of that "I'm not g@y, I... more>> just love you" stuff. Both characters admit they're g@y, and aren't that shy about it.

I like Ji Ran's best friend Yue Wenwen. He's hilarious and the very few chats we see from his circle of sisters are funny too. Everyone needs a Yue Wenwen as a friend.

There's a bit of drama in the story, some amount of dogblood, but nothing over the top. You can do the dogblood cliches well without going overboard, just like they're done here. Most of it is actually fairly realistic. I was especially surprised they didn't...
Spoiler

Go the route of the rich family mu*dering Ji Ran's mom, instead leaving it an accident and trying to pay off the person who caused it to keep them from talking.

[collapse]

Ji Ran's dad and grandmother are horrible, but his brother Ji Wei... I feel like, by the end of the story, he deserves a bit of leeway. He doesn't need forgiven for treating Ji Ran poorly, but... his position is slightly understandable and Ji Ran didn't exactly make an effort to bridge that gap. Not that Ji Ran should be expected to, he doesn't owe anyone in that family anything just because he exists.

Ji Ran is a th**ny little honey-badger, fighting anyone that crosses him but taking care of his own people ferociously. I love him and all his attitude.

If this story had one downside for me it'd have to be Qin Man. He's a bit scary with his obsessive behavior and he falls into a lot of the same traps of danmei MLs. Tons of dark and brooding, silent and imposing, strong aura energy but very little personality outside of that. He's still better than most MLs, but with all the other interesting characters in this story, I felt like he could have had more depth.

Overall a good story, and a nice break from some of the cliches and stereotypes that are common in a lot of CEO danmei stories. <<less

I love MC, he uses rough words and acts arrogant but he has a soft heart and is really cute. He only behaves the way he does because he's been hurt too much in the past and needs to defend himself. In the beginning I didn't like ML, but with time he really grew on me. I HOPE IT'S NOT DROPPED BUT IF IT IS THEN MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT, PLEASEE.

So good. I was invested with the extras though. I felt sad but happy for Jiang now that he finally got Cheng Peng but I felt sad because he was disregarded by CP before and Jiang was already so inlove with him. Pure love 😭 I'm kinda hurt that his love was so innocent and I felt like their relationship now needs more security and assurance for Jiang. Coz my boy Jiang is so innocently cute that needs the whole world to protect and cherish him. Now that CP is... more>> with him seriously now, he MUST love Jiang with all his life ot I will enter this novel to tear him down!!! 😂 <<less

They're so cute. Both characters are also interesting. I like MC non-pushover character. I like ML too, and they're both compatible 🥰 It's nice reading their journey.

The side couple are compatible too and it's nice reading part of CP relationship life even though his character wasn't still fully explored, lol. It'd be nice if it were longer or even a separate short story.

Thanks to the translators, good translation from both translators 🙌

I loved this novel. Really liked it! Loved it so much!

This must be emphasized three times 😭🙏🏻

This novel is like a dark comedy full of drama, really, this novel does not lack conflict because from beginning to end, this novel has the right story structure, from the orientation of the story, the emergence of problems, complications or the peak of conflict, the resolution of the story, to the satisfying ending that everyone wants. I really love the way the author narrated this story and the way the translator executed this... more>> story well 😭🙏🏻

From the story of their teenage years, to their adulthood, all moments are packed nicely!!!

If you've seen any of my previous reviews, you'll realize that I'm the type of reader who really hates heavy stories full of drama and conflict. And honestly this novel has it all, the annoying antagonist family, the discrimination, the inner turmoil, all the annoying things about 'heavy for me' novels are in this novel. BUT I REALLY LOVE THIS STORY 😭😭 kudos to the author for creating 2D characters into 3D for me, they look, but really they are very human, all the problems are present but not overwhelming, this is what makes me really love this novel, the writing presents the problems without having to make it so dramatic, even the revelation of 'lies' that should be annoying only made me feel scared in some chapters, because the author is a genius!

The author really impressed me with the way she created her characters. Our tsundere MC, he's ferocious, but I really wanted to let our ML always hold him tight, and that's exactly what he did. I love the ML's 'dark' way of possessing the MC, it's crazy, it's sweet, it's evil but it's all very sexy and tender 😭 very contradictory, but really the presentation of this story is really interesting.

Even the ending, when I they weren't happy enough, I wanted more, but I just accepted it, because the extra really distracted me 😭

Honestly, when the author mentioned that Extra belongs to a side character, I really didn't want to read it. But the right time allowed me to discover a very interesting short story.

I wanted a separate novel for them 😭😭 it's the dark side of showbizz, but again the author created characters that were able to minimize the conflict.

I want to read more of their story 😭😭 <<less
