The main good thing about this is that this author is capable of a lively turn of phrase. The MC can come out with some silly quirky ways of saying things and the ML is genuinely a bit biting with his sarcastic responses:

Father: Why did you two come out of the door together?

ML: Where should we have come out of, the chimney?

(From memory, so not verbatim probably.)

It's pretty fun to have an ML with a bit of personality like that. The author does also provide nice supporting characters. Although none of them are deep and all of them basically serve as backdrop for the MC and ML, there is some sense of different personalities for most of them, especially the other two adoptive brothers. That is the limit, though.

The whole story, although pleasant, is one where you somewhat have to check your brain at the door. Don't examine too rigorously. And we're getting a totally stereotypical naive dumb baby shou x perfect powerful doting gong (doting but at the same time is as biting with his sarcasm to his MC love as he is to everyone else).

And the MC... urgh, so, I genuinely like the sweet and slightly naive MC x powerful and protective/nurturing ML combo when done well. This isn't. The MC is just so extremely baby it's hard to bear. Sure, this body he's now in its more fragile and prone to illness (when it suits the author), but the MC can't walk without tripping and being caught by the ML, can't get undressed or dressed without getting tangled and helped out by the ML etc. etc. It's like... how on earth did he even make it out of the house each day back in his original world with no ML to do everything for him??

And we don't really get any backstory on the MC other than that he seems to be an orphan or not really have reliable family and has completed some kind of degree to do with law. And so when he enters into business with his friends, he actually is shown as the only one with ideas and has a absolutely no issues. Somehow he managed not to trip or get tangled in his clothes even once...

Which is fine, but it's dramatically inconsistent with how immensely childlike he acts the rest of the time. It's cute a bit, but a lot just starts to make the whole story feel inane. I haven't really been given enough to understand why he's so cutesy s*upid hopeless but sometimes not. I think I get the balance and nuance the author was going for but it is not pulled off, it just feels illogical within the story. It's not that I dislike the character - the author often makes him feel lively - it's just not enough to carry me past the poor aspects of how he written.

And really, truly, nothing is really happening. (Wait, isn't the ML supposed to be the "protagonist" of the original story??? We never even find out what was supposed to happen to him originally.) Events so that the MC and ML can banter and flirt, which is sort of fine, but once again we get the tired old thing where the MC is constantly scolded/warned not to stir up the constantly h**ny gong. Like, I get that in this story it is supposed to show that the ML is not a robot, that he feels deeply for the MC and is deeply attracted to and affected by everything the MC does (i.e. "romantic"), but it's really tiresome that he MC can barely even breathe without a "Don't provoke me, " from the ML. And we're getting events that are basically pointless other than to provide opportunities for interactions like these.

Again, I get that a lot of people like stories that just have a lot of teasing interactions and fluff, eventually leading to all the typical milestones of romance and intimacy. But In not finding it interesting.

Kudos to the third brother who has figured things out early and voluntarily runs interference. Bah to the domineering MC (oldest brother) who still jealousy intimidates and squashes him every time he gets close to the MC, who he likes a lot as a brother. Why is it cool to be a jerk.

I'll admit, I thought the reviews that I'd read here prior to starting were probably from the type of reader who has low tolerance for naive MCs and doesn't like or wasn't in the mood for one of those simple, lightweight danmei confections. But no, this one comes close, the author can clearly write that kind of story and there's enough in this one to have me pause it rather than decidedly drop it, but ultimately they fail to really satisfy me with this one.

first, I feel kind of disappointed with the 2nd brother's setting author put him in. Author probably thought it was funny to show how everyone forgot his existence and MC's strand of hair got more attention than he was. He's actually an interesting character, a serious man with secret affection over doll--i guess?

second, I know there is comedy tag in it, but after reading for awhile I get tired of the banter. There are no serious element either in their line of work, or in the talk of their relationship, and even in sexy time they still joke around sheesh.

third, the transmigration part is shallow. At the beginning author mentioned of some golden finger? That golden finger is only MC's knowledge of the novel. There are no golden fingers. Also, MC throw away his original identity a few second too fast. There are some mentioned about his previous life's psychological condition, but MC is just a happy go lucky person, what is sadness what is loneliness?? Better trade idioms with ML to make the plot seems well-literate.

in my opinion, his actions are just an upgrade level of the original's : being coquettish and blowing rainbow farts. But since he's the MC, the rainbow farts are blown in a more right timing and the people around intoxicated by this smell more than when the original's did it. Well, it's called the MC's halo.

Ooh, the original character was socially inept and ridiculed by everyone! How will he get through-- oh he kind of glides through with the two named characters who seemed to really dislike him in that initial start but now are business partners kinda.

Business partners? Yes! Some proactive work, knowing that he's been taken off the household register he's investing in a wine company-- casually dropping in there that his OG not-character self went to law school (never brought up or shown again) and while it's mentioned a few more times it's more to make reference to why we're revisiting the friends.

The casual mention of having studied law is a frustrating mention because when he's working with his brother he's literally left reading a dictionary while Big Bro/ML goes off doing other things. While it could be suspicious him knowing a bunch of legal jargon, the fact that he doesn't do some self study to then justify that hey, he happens to have a mind for law, isn't that convenient?
