1. So I had great expectation for this coz I loved the concept and the summary. I wasn't even fazed by r*pe tag. I was like it can't be that bad I was totally ready for some hurt comfort drama but boy did it disappoint me so much.
2. 1. Characters are flater than my ass no kidding.

2. SEME IS SHIT. Its not like I hated him. Its more like I didn't wanted to read about him. Hoped he got his retribution like the ML from " The 10 years that I've loved you" I'd rate this story 4 star. I'd have love this if Uke died soon after the r*pe and Seme regretted it and lived with it. But no he died 10 years later and seme didn't even remember him or regretted it for 10 years?? You ruined someone's life and that's it??

3. For Uke: I love his development. If only this was not rebirth more like uke revenge story it would have been better.

4. My problem with seme. HE FREAKING r*peD SOMEONE AND THAT SOMEONE DISAPPERED NEXT DAY AND HE DIDN'T CARE??? FOR 10 YEARS?? HE FORGOT ABOUT HIM. I'D HAVE GIVEN HIM BENIFIT OF DOUBT IF HE ONLY JUST SHOWED THAT HE REMEBERED UKE BUT NO HE FORGOT ABOUT HIM TILL HIS su*cide LOOOOOL. YOU r*peD SOMEONE AND FORGOT ABOUT IT SHOWS YOUR CHARACTER.

5. I'd have no problem if seme wasn't so gentlemanly after rebirth lol you are sick don't act like you are some kind of Saint. And his form of redemption was treating uke like a baby? His property? Buying everything for him. And the way he fell in love thats hog shit.

6. "Looking at the lively campus, Chu Xiong's hand could not help tightening. He was wondering if, without him, if Rong Hong didn't have depression, he would be admitted to A University smoothly. Then, on the day of the freshman's report, would Rong Hong be alone with his luggage and walking among these blankets? Among the freshmen surrounded by family" See his superiority complex lol. So if you bit*h didn't r*ped him he would have just been lonely and not dead ryt haha.

7. In short there's no redemption just seme seeking self gratification.

8. Lastly his reason for raping someone shows his character. As someone who have read a lot of danmei and manga to think that's what bugged me the most shows a lot.

9. But if you could ignore this then you can read it easily. Its a light read with shallow story. I did complete it for uke and Si Xian

As someone completely unaffected by the r*pe tag, I am unable to understand how a novel with such a nice premise has a rating lower than 3.5. Although the translator used present tense a lot of times, the lack of an editor makes it completely understandable. Because, when a chinese text is MTL-ed, the entirety is written in present tense.

As far as the story goes, so far I am loving it. Rebirth- check. Responsible and protective gong and delicate yet strong shou - check. And I hope there is a... more>> little bit of face slapping, but a short, sweet novel where everyone is happy from beginning to the end is fine by me. I really hope that the translator is not scared off by the low ratings and continue it. <<less

It's an easy read.

I have no complain with the plot or characters. Despite there's a r*pe tags, the novel itself actually didn't promote and beautify r*pes like other novel usually has. The r*pe was not described and only mentioned, but this novel truly deal with the aftermath properly, and didn't justify nor romanticize the act of raping at all. The MC is not your general scum or slag man. What this novel hinted is actually about parenting. Two kinds of parenting:

1. 1. A bad parents who can't express their love to their son, are too busy with their job, and give too much freedom to their son to the point of driving them to be unrestrained and unruly----- resulted in their son rebelling, going astray, and the lack of education makes the son r*pe someone else irresponsibly.
   2. A worse parent who got divorced and each marry someone else, abandoning their son because the new spouse didn't want the extra step son, the son had been left alone for YEARS-------resulted the son being depressed, lonely, sad, and finally being bullied, even got r*ped once, and commit su*cide when he could not go anymore.

So, did you want to blame the MC for raping the ML? Or are you going to blame the ML for being too weak and soft?

In fact, everyone commit so many mistakes when they're young, either a small mistake to a big mistake, due to so many circumstance and reasons, consciously or unconsciously.

The thing is, after committing those mistakes, can you realize it and repent on it?

There's a lot of bastards who feel no repentance upon their mistakes, and even boast on it.

And the MC here is one of bastard who is able to truthfully realize his mistakes and fixing it sincerely.

The MC is indeed a bastard for inflicting a final trigger that makes the ML fell into depression in the last life. But, THE MC IS NOT THE CAUSE. The ML had already been depressed because of his own parents and also some school bullying. When the MC finally commit a mistake and r*pe him, it's only the final trigger. Regardless, that's no excuse for him.

However, the MC regret his actions so much, and is willing to repent and compensate the ML when given a second chance.

Whether you like it or not, that's it. The MC is not the one who bully the ML, the MC is not the one who makes his life bad at the first place, the MC is not the one who makes him depressed at the first place. He's not your usual scum man who was the root of everything.

Perhaps, that's why I could still accept and forgive him despite him being a bastard in the last life...

I liked the blurb and then saw the r*pe tag... and it took me 5mins to make a decision if I should read it or not. I like redemption stories. Man, uke is so pitiful. I just want him to find happiness.

And I'm curious about what happened to seme. Did he die or just fell asleep? Will he come back to his original timeline where uke is dead? I have lots of questions. (+_+)

One thing that might turn off for some is only the r*pe part. And that is just only the beginning of the story. Although I generally don't like that part it's not the whole part of the story.

I can say that the story is very heartwarming and kinda cheesy, but I mainly like the characters themselves.

MC is the gong is actually a jerk during his highschool years and has matured a lot as an adult. His death was triggered by the ML (shou) and was rebirth. Now I do like... more>> MC but as a character he is already mature and from his perspective he only focus on his shou. He resolve to amend his wrong doings he decided to make the ML happy in his intire life.

MC is mature and responsible, and in the story you can only admire how loyal, responsible and communicative he is with his lover. And that's the kind of husbando that you would want. He is absolutely determined to make a future for him and his lover.

Now there's the ML the shou. He has a background of his own that explains on his current (past) mentality. He shy but is a hardworker and learner. And while he is shy it doesn't stop him from facing difficulties. Due to the support that he doesn't have from MC timeline, the ML has grown to be more confident.

The ending is pretty normal I would say because there are some part of the story that I wish to see but didn't appear. There might be some side story but I couldn't read them. So I would say it's a semi satisfaction.

A lot of side CP but I do wish to see their interactions more. And boy there is a lot of white lotuses.

In my opinion I like it. It's not a bad story per say but I do enjoy it. Mainly how ML has grown to be an adult. The interactions with the characters are really nice too and I think it's really what makes the story enjoyable to read. <<less

Now many people are going to have alot of mixed feelings about this one, mostly because of all the r*pe staff going on, but I think it's a great book.

You don't understand how hard it is to find a highschool theme book that is not so repetitive. You actually see the progress here.

I love the MC and ML. ML was a bit of an a**hole before but this time he's mature and devoted and I'm here for it. It's not like those rebirth novels where the MC comes back and... more>> he's so angry at everyone and cuts off his friends and fights with annoying relatives and bla bla bla. This MC actually gives his friends an opportunity to change, not more than necessary, but it's atleast there. So it's going to save us a lot of dog blood drama cliche.

Overall I love it. It's great <<less

there's something very wrong both with his "I r*ped you because I like you" confession and the MLs calm acceptance of it. I almost stopped reading right there but some of the other comments made me keep on despite myself. RongRong acts more like a shy maiden then a boy and is very passive and accepting with the personality traits of a carpet. He's very intelligent, knows he's gay and his EQ isn't zero, yet at the same time he's yet another shou who has to be petted and taken... more>> care of as though he were a child, rather than being treated as an equal partner.

that being said, thankfully there is some character growth for both the MC and ML. The ML learns to be a much better person and the MC becomes mentally stronger and more confident as they near the end of the novel. There isn't much hardship for the two and very little struggle. The unintentional influence they have on their roommates is pretty funny to watch as well, though most of the main story is focused on the MC and ML

Spoiler

eventually everyone becomes gay

[collapse]

the story was free of the normal angry and disgusted parents and while it had its share of the usual scheming green tea b*tches, it also had some decent female side characters that weren't selfish or crazy. If your looking for a story with a lot of drama, potholes and bumps on the road to true love than this one isn't for you. It's sweet and a little shallow (surprising, given how it started with a brutal r*pe) but the end will make you smile despite yourself. <<less

love this. I've re-read for like 5 times :D

yea the r*pe tag is there but I'm not really affected by it. In my defense, the MC does regret everything he has done to ml. After his rebirth, he tries to fix his mistakes and return the love ML has for him. It's a sweet journey of love ah. They fall in love slowly but the affection starts from the start, like they start the relationship from 'like' first, then it slowly turns into love.

sweetness: 10/10

story: 4.5/5

drama: 3/5

Actually, I feel uncomfortable at first because of the ra** scene and my heart aches for the shou. Even hate the Gong when he confessed that he just did that thing because he likes Rong Xun (ML). However, I find this novel so good to read. Maybe because of the character development of MC and ML.

Chu Feng did actually made up for his mistakes: he pampers and take care of Rong Xun... And Rong Xun is such a good baby for me... Uwu, my "mother" heart is aching for him... more>> at the beginning and I want him to be happy..

This novel may not be the best but I like reading this! I don't think that it deserves the rating it currently have in NU. This has a good plot actually. I hope that someone will pick this up soon to translate the remaining chapters. As for me, I just finish it through MTL.. Nosebleed is real. <<less

So fluffy and sweet. I was nervous bout chu feng choice to become an actor again but all is well.

I really wanted to read this after first read the description, but I was busy for a while so I didn't get to it until later. Now, I wish I'd taken a closer look at the tags.

... more>>

Spoiler

I wanted to give this 3 stars, because I do like redemption stories and have some of my own, but the r*pe really bothered me for someone that's seen/read a lot of bl with it. I gave an extra star, because it wasn't glossed over. He didn't go back in time to before it happened, but right after, and he took responsibility. While I feel like it was still swept aside really easily, at least he feels bad, and I hope he continues to feel bad.

[collapse]

For now, it's not so bad that I can't keep reading, but my opinion might change depending on how things go. At the moment I heavily dislike, but not necessarily hate, Chu Feng and look forward to him making up for his actions. <<less

Premise is kinda iffy, the execution of the rest of the story is great, while the ending is meh. I get that this is a fluffy sort of stress-free story, but,

Spoiler

Rong Yun’s script getting picked up by a director is all well and good but having all his friends becoming part of the crew is kinda cheesy and way too convenient for my liking... what happened to Chu Feng’s career after they came out afterwards is also a mystery, and that was the part I was looking forward to the most.

[collapse]

I appreciate that Rong Xun will be happy in love and life this time around, but I can't help but have negative feelings toward the MC. It is inconceivable that a person would r*pe someone and just forget abt it, in his case, he went on with his life like nothing ever happened, despite hearing the rumours abt Rong Xun leaving. That state of mind is rather disturbing, his rebirth was right after he r*ped Rong Xun and his way to solve it was to say he loved him and... more>> couldn't control himself, in reality, that's more than enough of a reason for the victim to disappear, why does seeing the ML beaten and bleeding turn u into a less than an animal. The confession made me sick, read up to chapter seven and can already tell, it's going to be a happy ending, he's going to be possessive, and jealous and will place himself in every aspect of Rong Xun's life. Rong Xun has family issues. And the MC will help him and vice-versa. Close to the middle of the book he will fall in love with him and dat da da da. Because the friends were introduced and somewhat had distinct traits at the beginning, their love life will be a side story. Fluffy, dog food. Then a happy ending

. ILL FINISH READING WHEN MY MOOD IS BETTER <<less

I loved the story. (/^▽^) /

It's just...I hope there was a closure or face slap bet ML (shou) and his parents esp his mother. (￣^￣)

I really like it so far, the seme is really sweet? He come back just after the r*pe, and he did his best to repay it. But, I'm not affected by r*pe tag, so maybe this story not for every one.

-edits-

Mtl-ed, its actually cheesy and ML become too perfect in my eyes? Too sweet, almost flawless, its a bit annoying. I wish for a bit more.. Rough patch and angsty bit but suprisingly all goes sooooo smoothly its almost frustating. But yeah, cute story.
