Description

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

Tang Zhou dreamed that he was cannon fodder in a novel.

Because of prejudice, he misunderstood and hurt the villain, and later was framed by his illegitimate younger brother and became impoverished.

After waking up from his dream, he looked at the innocent and harmless young villain in front of him and decided to change his own ending.

*

Fu Shen knew about his background long ago and had been plotting for many years for this reason.

He agreed to Tang Zhou’s harsh demands, pretended to be harmless, and kept a low profile.

His original plan was to turn around and leave naturally after the deed was done.

But unexpectedly, after one night, this person seemed to have changed.

Peeled off the coat of indifference, there was actually a piece of small sugar cake inside.

Fu Shen was born with a sweet tooth, and after having a taste, he couldn’t let go.

It’s a heartwarming novel. I like both our MC and Ml. Their relationship was healthy and cute. I can’t help fell in love with their love story. They are both lonely pitiful children who found a home in each other. They are both smart and capable.

there is a thing I couldn’t understand. Our MC only saw his future so how could he say that he was in a novel? Not only that, he said that he is cannon fodder and the ML is the villain then who is the main... more>> character? Don’t tell me it’s the brother!!

MC really broke my heart. From the outsider's point of view, he has everything but he is very empty inside.

Spoiler

the doll thing really broke my heart

[collapse]

he’s very afraid of emotions because of his family circumstances so he didn’t let people near easily.

Spoiler

even with the Ml. He was afraid of his feelings so he wanted to run away - he didn’t in the end-

[collapse]

I didn’t hate his mother and I understand her. It’s not that she doesn’t want to take care of her child but

Spoiler

THE GRANDFATHER TAKES THE CHILD AWAY.

what else can she do? I was angry every time the MC say his grandfather raised him so he is grateful. Excuse me he was the one who took you away from your mother.

[collapse]

that’s why I hoped the MC would be softened a little to her. I feel like he was just afraid of believing in her not that he didn’t want her love.

Spoiler

the MC adopted sister is so cute. She seems to like our MC so much. Maybe if our MC gave her a chance he would have the family love he wanted.

[collapse]

There is something you MC said a lot but I strongly disagree.

Spoiler

He always says the ML love made him no longer want his family's love. I don't agree with that at all. Someone's love can be the same as your mother, father, sister, brother, and friend's love. Every love is very different from the other. Your lover's love can't take the place of other kinds of love.

Tang Zhou and Fu Shen are both capable and cunning, they have their own moral compass but that is not to say that they are evil or a pushover, just the typical behavior of a normal person. Their relationship is smooth sailing, it didn't have many or even one misunderstanding. The respect and adoration is lingering in the air, the only drama there is about the Tang Family. That's kind of messed up.

I am kind of meh whatwith the grandfather and mother. I feel like they wasted a potential bond.... more>> Man, I would have loved a supportive one but what they gave me was the typical asian "I know better, what I will do is for your own sake". :&Lt; I'm happy that Tang Zhou did not tolerate the toxicness of that relation. Feels kind of pity to the adopted sister.

Spoiler

To be honest, it is more like a time-travel genre. I'm not sure what is the use of giving it as "realizing Tang Zhou's a cannon fodder and his frienemy is a villain". The "book" did not have anything to help Tang Zhou, all his moves were just what he "had" seen in the future. The rest were just his brain working out which ones are worth the investment or something.

I love the tidbits regarding the last 4 chapters. It was Tang Zhou waking up to the reality where everything from the future had already happened, and he knows he have to woo his husbando, which is pretty cute especially since Fu Shen kept the birthday present he was given??? That's so adorable and sad? I am just happy they got a happy ending for the second time.

Last but not the least, divorced gals are strong here!

[collapse]

Get you a man who will learn to crochet to make you your own stuffed toys. The effort??? That's really nice. :&Gt; I'm still stuck at learning to basic crochet, for two years I haven't finished the WIP of my bag. Lmaooo, the time it took!!! <<less

The ending is kinda rushed, and there isn’t much said about their careers in the end, but it’s good. Nice, fast paced story, not much drama (specially, no relationship drama or major misunderstandings), and the interactions between MC and ML are very cute. Their personalities and characterization are good as well, and there’s a couple more-or-less fleshed secondary characters, but overall it’s just a short, sweet romance between MC and ML.

It's a nice story with no angst, no cumbersome misunderstandings, deserving of almost 5 stars.

I really liked the MC and ML in this one, they're both defined and explained well, the progress of their relationship feels natural and I can only say the story leaves you feeling warm and comforted.

Definitely read it, especially if you need a break from angsty and plot-heavy stories.

... more>> It's not like some stories with pure fluff, but there also aren't any confusing schemes, and antagonists get what they deserved with no over-the-top revenge or face-slapping.

The story mostly follows the MC and how he solves the things he regrets from the dream he had seen of his future self as he also slowly learns more about the ML and falls in love with him.

The ML is very respectful of MC, and honestly, one of the best MLs I've seen so far in the danmei stories. He respects MC's ambitions and feelings, and waits for MC to return his feelings before doing anything. Definitely not like typical overbearing president MLs you usually see in other stories. Their relationship and mutual respect as well as tacit understanding really makes this a worthwhile read. <<less

I like the MC. He's basically not too cold, not too hot headed. There are moments he shows what he believes in and MC is basically what I call a man of his own principles.

5/5, I get fluff so why not.

I love this. This is the only novel I have read that have ML making (crocheting) a birthday gift for MC.

It is sweet, really. Not much face slapping which is good since I really like the dog food more than face slapping.

And the ending is unique. MC actually get back to previous timeline and managed to get the ML, again.

Love this. Read this if you want short sweet novel.

Plot Quality: 3.5/5

Entertainment Value: 4/5

Heartwarming story will lots of sugar. Both the MC and ML have rough childhoods, so it's incredibly touching to see them find comfort in each other. I really like that the story focused on their romance and how they helped heal each other's emotional wounds rather than on face-slapping.

... more>>
Spoiler

Example: in the OG timeline, the ML destroyed his scumbag father's company since the father had abandoned them do he could marry a rich woman. In the current timeline, the MC reveals the scumbag father's real nature to the father's wedded family. We don't hear about the dad again until the very end, when it's revealed that his wife successfully divorced him and got him jailed for economic crimes.

The story doesn't focus on this much, but being with the MC helped the ML let go of his hatred too. He hasn't forgiven his scumbag dad, he just doesn't feel the need to take revenge on his father personally since he just wants his future to focus on the MC.

[collapse]

Spoiler

Another example: MC doesn't spend time on his family despite their mistreatment of him. His mom, who had allowed him to be raised coldly by his grandfather, tried to make amends with him in the new timeline but he refused her. The MC seems cold, but it's understandable why he doesn't want to build a relationship with her. She was barely present in his childhood and now that the ML is with him, the MC is no longer desperate for affection.

As for the major scumbags, MC's dad and half-brother, they don't have good ends entirely because of their own moral failings. The MC barely attacked them, they fell on the sword of their own selfishness.

Finally, the MC barely interacts with his grandfather throughout the story. At first, he was hung up on the old man's betrayal in the OG timeline, but the ML helped him realize that he should move on instead of stressing himself out by testing whether the old man would betray him again. In the current timeline, the MC becomes his family company's chairman after his dad and half-brother made a mess of things. His grandfather also stops trying to get the MC to marry a woman, since he realized that having the MC lead the company well for decades is better than having it collapse right now under his own son's incompetence. Still, the MC remains distant with him. He still reminds the grandfather's Butler to take care of the old man, but he doesn't want his grandfather's validation anymore.

It was such a cute story! Both the MC and ML were such green flags. I completely forgot about the revenge like the ML did. All he wanted was to be happy with the MC.

Tang Zhou was such a cute character but also cold and logical. Usually with these novels it's the ML (gong/top) who is all powerful.

Fu Shen is powerful though. He's smart and capable but Tang Zhou is as well. Tang Zhou already has a place as one of the best young businessmen. He stepped in to help... more>> Fu Shen when he really needed it.

Tang Zhou seems very cold and unapproachable but that was a shield he was taught to make impenetrable since he was young. He didn't have a childhood and was forbidden from enjoying it and was instead stifled and forced to be almost robotic-like.

From the small snippets we get from Tang Zhou about his previous life (pre-rebirth), I think Fu Shen might have fallen in love with him then too. It's hinted that Fu Shen was protecting Tang Zhou in Tang Zhou's previous life because Fu Shen kept him by his side as a personal assistant even though he didn't need to.

Even Tang Zhou was confused as to why he did that. He had Tang Zhou cook for him when he couldn't cook. At that time, Fu Shen was very wealthy and successful and he could have hired someone more capable but he didn't.

There's also other little events Tang Zhou reminisces about that hint that Fu Shen wanted to keep him by his side and protect him even though they didn't talk a lot and were cold to each other. It was because of their circumstances and misunderstandings that they could get rid of thanks to Tang Zhou's rebirth.

Overall, the story was a refreshing read. Although revenge wasn't the main point in the story, I didn't mind it. There were still face-slapping moments so I was satisfied. I like that Tang Zhou got away from his toxic family and made the grandfather face the consequences of his actions.

Tang Zhou and Fu Shen's love was beautiful. They could both let go of the facade they put in front of others with each other.

I give it 4.7 stars. It's a pretty light read with some angst but a lot more fluff to sooth your heart. <<less

Absolutely a new favorite for me.

The relationship between our MC and ML is beautiful. After rebirth/the dream, we see our MC slowly attempting to mend his relationship with the ML while also navigating his own devastation over being betrayed by his family. Thanks to the power of alcohol, the relationship between the MC and ML rapidly improves, and the ML learns about the MC's soft heart and childhood trauma. We get some hesitation from the MC about his feelings which is logical due to his distrust over relationships and emotions... more>> from his stifling upbringing. However, he is rapidly forced to confront his own emotions and ends up being quite proactive. There is so much dog food after the couple get together and some of the parts about their love were written very beautifully. You could really get a sense of the obsessive love that the ML had for the MC, as well as the tenderness and reliance that the MC had for the ML. I usually don't like AU extras, but the storyline about the MC falling in love with the ML in the dream was also super wholesome.

Would definitely read again. I'm obsessed with our couple's relationship. <<less

I was going to write a review after finishing this, but I got distracted reading another novel and then another. I wasn't too worried because I thought I'd just write the review for all 3 novels after I finished the one I'm currently reading but... then I couldn't remember which novel this was. That's how unmemorable this was.

Don't get me wrong. This novel isn't bad.

This novel is actually good. It was a very pleasant read with a healthy, fluffy couple and for that alone it deserves a good rating. Normally,... more>> I would give 3 stars to novels that are not very memorable but are entertaining enough, but this one had a really nice couple on top of that, so for that I gave an extra star. It's a sad reality that Chinese novels lack healthy couples that are supportive of each other. This one deserves the extra star for that.

This novel won't change your life, but if you're in a pinch looking for something pleasant to read, this one is a good one. <<less

I can say that I like this very much 💕💕💕

Although the revenge is not really satisfying as the villain only end up in jail, , but I think I am too narrow minded too think that because this is novel then villain has to die by the protagonist's hand, , in reality all of their misdeed should be given to the government and law to take care of 😂😂😂

Maybe they are shortcoming and flaw in this novel but they are overshadowed by fluff, , I can feel the love in... more>> the air from the first chapter and honestly that's enough for me, ,

Even occasional touch or words become so lovely by these two protagonist, ,

I am a sucker for fluff and I won't change it 😆😆

So this is really good, , no deep thinking and the misunderstanding is non-existent (even if there is it's so beautiful), ,

My cup of tea ☕ <<less

Oh my god!!!

It's such a sweet, fluffy story with not much of angst.

I really really loved it, it's probably one of the sweetest one I have read for quite a while.

... more>> Both the ML and MC were way too nice, sweet and loved each other too much.

ML being such a cte caring sweetheart, he was really super duper nice and unconditionally loved MC only if I could find someone like him (probably have to be single for life 😂) and MC at first had a very cold type of persona but later he was such a softie.

I didn't like MC's family though, our cute MC.

I would highly recommend it u guys, trust me it's an really very sweet story.

As the story is not translated, I have to read it through google translate, but it was readable.

I would like to thank the author very much for such an amazing story. <<less

I love this novel 😍. The chapters are short, but its enough. The story development is not diluted. The build up of the story is also adequate to make the readers involved.

What I love most on this novel is that it is sweet, but it is not the sticky or industrial sugar kind. But sweet like the sweetness of fruits. Not too sweet but naturally delicious.

Overall 5/5

This novel is So Precious...!!!

I'm so tempted to put Cute Protagonist tag on this novel because our MC is Precious!!!

He's Cute when he drunk. And he's Cute when he finally together with ML. But most of time he's Calm and Rational, so he's not the Standard Cute Protagonist.

... more>> Anyway he's Sweet, and ML know it.

It even implied that in the 'Dreams', ML doesn't seems to hate MC, and MC realised that.

So it's not a story where MC try to make ML doesn't hate him, because even ML mentioned he never hate MC before, just had a normal feeling toward Acquaintance/Boss.

The relationship truly Lovely!

When ML know how Cute MC is, that's probably how he slowly fall for MC. And the rest, their relationship develop naturally. As Natural as ML secretly Flirt on him, and also like to Dote and taking care of MC.

Love how MC also straight forward at helping his friends to Grow so they won't face the same Tragic Future as his Dreams.

Anyway this novel is Truly Lovely, Sweet, Cute, and Heartwarming so I LOVE IT SOOOOOOOO MUUUUCH!!!

Pray the final chapter and extras is a good till the end!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 <<less

Really a sweet story. And there was a twist with the dream world vs reality but Tang and Fu got their happy ending. While there were a few plot holes and alot of things could have been taken further in developing the story, it was still a easy read and heart warming story of salvation through love and what is really important in life... sigh.

It's short but it's so loving. MC is a stuff toys lover and ML is a sweet lover both are just both strong men with these quirks that's so perfect for each other.

I thought it was going to be back in the childhood s transmigration because this whole sweet thing would start from childhood. But they were both young adults already and have cross paths with their different interests, cold and aloof males gods, it was very interesting.

As usual family is full of scumbags, cheating and illegitimate child all of... more>> the sorts. But the face slapping make it so much more enjoyable, especially when they don't cover screen time in the novel and sit there waiting to be slapped.

MC and ML's fluff is so delicious to eat, ahh big handsome men with these quirks is so adorable and it doesn't damage their image one bit It added a layer of character with them.

Both are business gods and are so smart, friends are so great, no emotional BS drama of mis understanding. Oh if scum family won't accept men being together, screw them I HAVE MY OWN COMPANY AND IT'S BETTER. While watch their own family business dying because of their choices so satisfying!

This can be finished in one day, it's sweet and satisfying both MC and ML are perfect for each other and has so many layers about that. I love them both and other characters. Fully recommend <<less

A cliché, but still a heartwarming novel. I really like it despite its premises/setting.

The author just wrote the characters, the scenes, the plot, etc. So well. The novel will really make you fall in love with it once you read it.

Overall, it's a 5/5 stars for me. Recommended.
