This is the Yourwei novel that most has the '渣攻火葬场' thing where the ML doesn't know he's in love until he loses his love, and has to chase him back, except it's yourwei and it's done without a lot of the angst or dogblood. The characters all have morals and principles, so if you don't like that sort of lacking part in things like 188, then you'll find this novel more to your liking. (for example, no protagonist is breaking the law, we are all law-abiding citizens here)

Thinking on it again, Shut up you fake fan is one of the Yourwei novels that has the most dogblood angst tropes in a way. There's a white moonlight, there's the sugar relationship (misunderstanding), there's the orphan thing, there's the chasing after the break-up. But 🛰️ pulls through, he matures... or it should be said he really comes to understand YJY when he couldn't before and does so respecting him and his boundaries. In the end, he may still not understand YJY fully, but it's usually pretty impossible to perfectly understand someone else in the first place.

However, this is also the novel where the main characters face the least troubles..... many of the others have to deal with a lot of stuff outside of their relationship (like criminals scheming against them, time loops, the government, really terrible 'family', kidnappings, etc)..... they're really the favoured children hhhhhhh

Also, I am pleasantly surprised about Feng Dan (gong's dead older sister's fiance's ex fiancee). Her background design (fiance broke engagement when she was pregnant and asks for the baby to be aborted because he fell in love with gong's sister, which then make her confront sister and present the facts, resulting in sister breaking up with fiance) would usually make her to be one of the villains that would oppress the sister and gong. But no, she became sister's friend instead and has even helped gong. I am curious what happened to the baby and the fiance though, because she ended up with her childhood sweetheart (fiance's cousin) and no further info was told, maybe it's on author's other novels.
