Salted Fish Stutterer, Both Reckless and Timid

Description

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

Overwhelmed by pain, the submissive character ultimately takes his own life.

Chi Ya accidentally transverses into this world, becoming the scheming character with the same name. Touching his empty pockets and looking at the wealthy and handsome scoundrel who avoids him, he realizes: he’s stuck in a script meant for a resigned, aimless life.

From then on, Chi Ya is genuinely kind to his true friends, deceitfully amicable with the scoundrel, making sure to keep him at a distance. He lives each day wildly, waiting for the moment his rival appears to graciously step aside.

Yet, he fails to notice the changing gaze of the eldest of the Gu family.

Gu Huai Zhang, a man of pure heart and few desires, has scorned the notion of “love” for thirty years, becoming known in the elite circles of City A as a formidable figure.

—Until his younger brother brought a handsome young man before him.

Gu Huai Zhang knows his brother doesn’t love the young man, but the young man is deeply infatuated with him, trying every day to seduce him.

He watches coldly as the young man secretly smells clothes his brother wore, stealthily brushes his brother’s leg under the table, and quietly sneaks to his brother’s bed at night.

But…

The clothes were his, the legs under the table were his, and as for the bed…

Gu Huai Zhang falls silent as he watches the young man climb into his bed.

The effort is genuine, yet so naively executed.

So naive and yet so brazen, his brother probably couldn’t handle him. Gu Huai Zhang thinks sternly.

—It seems he must take matters into his own hands.

I don't have much to say about the novel other than that it's exceptionally boring. I struggled to get through it, and the romance wasn't really my type. The romance was extremely slow and it bored me to death. They get together very, very late. Overall, this novel was not really well written or interesting in my opinion. I had high hopes from the summary but I was disappointed.

Just finished the main text. Now I need the extra!!!

I read it on the MTL+Edited version on asianovel, so keep in mind I might miss few things.

This novel is Unique! If not for a fact it was Complicated. But in a Unique case. At least I haven't read story like this before not even in a QT novel version until now.

... more>> MC Transmigrated into a Reverse Forced Boyfriend of the ML's brother. (Aka the Original body was the one who forced the brother to date him)

So since the beginning it was a mutual dislike between MC and 'his boyfriend'.

Without the summary many of you probably can't guess who's the real ML or at least the final ML.

Also I will fight people who think or put Love Triangle tag in this novel. Because it's NOT! MC NEVER Love this 'Boyfriend' he has. Especially because 'Boyfriend' somewhat hateful and except the part that he's Good Looking as supposed Male Protagonist, our MC NEVER interested toward him.

MC may seems to be like a Salted Fish, but except the part that he get a Free Food for living in the Gu's House and get the second handed clothes (which actually mostly ML's; the housekeeper doing), he's So Poor that his entertainment is the Flowers he likes, the Dog, and his phone. Until he finally get a job, he has limited entertainment and no money at all.

It took ML to realized that MC was not 'with his brother' for money especially because his brother who suppose to act like Boyfriend, never give him money or buying him things. And it was ML who 'remind' his brother to provide MC as boyfriend.
Spoiler

which thank goodness MC reject it! More wall on their supposed relationship and no debt need to be repaid!

[collapse]

Anyway the brother keeping acting as Arrogant as*hole and MC doesn't need him to change because he doesn't like him anyway.

While the ML keep being good to MC withing reasons and then keep growing fond of him.

Sure there was time where ML scared MC, but that was because MC 'dare' to bicker with his brother and included ML in the topic. And in 'normal' view that was inappropriate. But the point is ML NEVER harm MC. And he always know how to apologize when he did wrong or showing with his action that he doesn't stay angry long toward MC.

MC truly well protected by ML.

While the 'supposed boyfriend' never stand a chance because he was the Arrogant Ass who MC never need.

If anything was the story was a little Dog Blood-like because the final act of MC trying to get away from the Gu's House was climbing to [...] bed to disgust ML's brother after the Arrogant brat already like MC. It would be 'Heartbreaking' if not for the fact he's not likable for me.

But it was 'Heartbreaking' because the final act involve ML and confession and create 'Drama' between MC and ML.

Anyway It's a Late Romance kind of novel where it took the last 20ish (I think) chapter from the main text for ML to finally let himself 'approach' MC when he realised he can fall for MC and court him.

But I do love the characteristic of MC and ML with all their flaws. Like how I love MC can let out tears many time without being an annoying crybaby.

I do hope when I can finally read the extras, it would give us the Fluff we need.

Sure it's not a Heavy novel, but I won't call it a Light one either.

No Villain, but has a Real Plot. It was Entertaining till the end.

I Love it and I need the Extras now!!! 🙏😭 <<less

A guilty pleasure read! Author makes the characters pretty dimensional, which is a surprise. I think the relationship needed further development in the end, and so did the loose ends (MC and his brother’s relationship, MC’s career for violin, the transmigration, etc.) Maybe that got addressed during the extras, but I feel like those are better suited for the main text. A fun read, would recommend if you’re bored, but don’t think too hard about it because there’s a lot left to be desired.

I basically read about a quarter to third of the novel before not continuing due to liking the dynamic of MC with his fake boyfriend more than with the typical cold elite overpowered ML tbh. So this is nota review but first impressions

Both the fake boyfriend and MC are aware they are in a fake relationship, and one seemingly started off as blackmail by the oriMC. However, fake boyfriend doesn't really seem like scum to me like the other review insinuates because fake bf and MC kinda have a... more>> teasing kinda relationship. I like that off the bat already that fake bf already has various conflicts set up for him like a distant relationship with his older brother, disdaining how he was forced into a relationship with the oriMC but growing to like MC more, arrogance yet growing empathy, etc. And I liked how the MC would tease him too. In that way, unfortunately the real ML was more plain white bread to me <<less
