Transmigrating Into The Heartthrob’s Cannon Fodder Childhood Friend

Description

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

The protagonist shou, Xie Sui, was a proud son of heaven. He had an illustrious family background, was cold and removed from desire, and attracted many (psychopathic) admirers. From the gentle senior to the paranoid president, to the haughty and proud arch-enemy, these big guys were all top leaders of their respective fields, yet they were all crazy about him.

After pushing him down a series of mentally and physically abusive paths, the three of them decided to join hands to destroy the Xie Family, imprison Xie Sui, crush his pride, and turn him into a pet that could only rely on them.

While the crowd of readers howled “Wuwuwu the feels~”.

Song Yu was already so angry he was going crazy. Not wanting to read any more of this eye-searingly bad novel, he cursed, “Idiots.” and hurried offline.

As a result, when he woke up, he’d transmigrated.

He’d transmigrated to become the Third Young Master of the Song Family in the novel, who had only been briefly mentioned in passing, would die of a terminal illness, and was Xie Sui’s childhood friend.

Song Yu was terribly upset. At the same time, he’d already come to a decision in his heart––those three idiots, had better not think about wanting to get close to his little childhood friend!

Xie Sui was born cold-hearted. In two lifetimes, he’d never tasted the sweetness of love, nor had he ever experienced the feeling of being protected.

After destroying three big families and personally killing his enemies, he was reborn back to when he was 15 years old. He had to hide the violence and coldness in his heart and pretend to be the youth with a gentle and clean appearance that he’d been in the past.

Everything was the same as before, except that the little childhood friend who was nothing but a vague memory in his previous life was exceptionally different this time.

Like the spring breeze that thawed the frozen soil, someone reached into the abyss and grabbed his blood-stained hand.

Song Yu tore apart a love confession letter like he was venting and fumed, “Don’t pay attention to those people, don’t believe in their sweet words. They’re all scum, and their love is worthless. Don’t like them, okay?”

Xie Sui gazed at him for a long time, then laughed, “Alright, I don’t like them.”

I only like you.

What else can I say? This novel is amazing.

This novel doesn't have many chapters and has a pretty heavy plot. But a great thing that the writer can finish everything so well.

There are no holes, no overlaps, and no insignificant parts of the story.

I actually was curious about what happened to Qin Mo after system get destroyed.

Because different from Zhou Ziyu, Qin Mo was not connected to the system directly which made him not remember his past at all.

So maybe Qin Mo didn't get to much effect after system get destroyed, which this might also be the same case for Sun Henguang.

But from the start Sun Henguang himself had given up on being in a relationship with Xie Sui, because of the butterfly effect that was created.

Leaving Qin Mo as the only unexplained dangerous variable in this story

Note : For me, if the writer could be more patient and extend the story longer (in terms of explanation and background) this story would be more perfect. <<less

Ahhhhhhh the story's so goooood ;_; I like the MC very much ahhahaha 6666+ definitely bad ass. Our ML also suffered so much during the past life- although some scenes were not really acted in reality but still ML got too much heartache. They are a good couple~ Me cheering for MC : Punish the evil and promote goodnessxD

Finally they got a happy ending, there were twist and turns at the story so it was exciting reading this. Read it now!!!

A rather sweet and simple story. The MC is hilarious and refreshing considering he actually attempts to communicate with the ML. The ML himself is one of the better ones in terms of respecting MC and his feelings. It's not particularly deep, but pretty worth a read.

I like the story. The MC is 'kind, cute and smart' ? He is witty and is a very sociable person. The ML treats MC very well while hides his strength in dealing with enemies. They both have a great dynamic in this story.

Spoiler

The MC was brought by the system to fulfill his "role". However, he later realized that he is actually the 'Song Yu' in the book and was only transported by the so called Lord god to another world. Well, the MC never really did what the system required him to do. He followed his own method. Read the story to know more. Kekeke.....

I'm looking forward to have this story properly translated. <<less

This story is a GEM!!

Our MC is such a troll, and he's funny and badass.

Our ML is so sweet to the MC.

This review isn't doing the story justice, but just go read it. 5 star reviews are there for a reason.

This is so cute!!!!

One point though,

Spoiler

wasn't ML stated to be on his 3rd life in the beginning? So this is his second rebirth. But at the end the world only restarted once and ML was only reborn once. Is it a misunderstanding or did the author forget? Orz

I really liked this one!! I absolutely tore through it in a day or two. The plot is engaging, the characters are loveable, the conflicts are dramatic enough but not overdone. Highly recommend.

The translations by XIIN are pretty good, as always, but since she's been on hiatus for all of her translations, I just decided to read this one to the end via the raws (yay for being bilingual).

Plot: A big portion of the early half of the novel can be categorized as kinda similar to a 爽文 (don't know... more>> how to translate, it's like the genre of face-slapping novels). A lot of hateful antagonistic characters show up but our MC beats them all down. That kind of thing. But IMO the author treads a fine line between satisfying and exaggerated. It pleased me to no end to see the MC be cool as f*ck, and I was repeatedly genuinely infuriated at these antagonist characters, but I didn't find myself cringing or becoming exasperated at the overused cliche. It didn't really feel repetitive, and there was a lot more going on in the novel, especially later on, than just simply the MC being cool and shutting down all the villains. But the MC is really f*cking cool and that doesn't change throughout the entire novel. He's f*cking alpha as f*ck ngl, like he's so good at fighting with both his fists and his words. He's such an interesting character to read with a very strong personality. However! That doesn't change the fact that he's cute as f*ck with the ML. He has his shy and embarrassed moments and the gap between them and his usual alpha-ness is so good.

And boy do I love the relationship between the MC and ML. It started as a very cute and generally lighthearted (despite all the traumatic backstory we learn about) story between an incorrigible and dense-as-f*ck straight-man MC and a reincarnated black-bellied ML who's pursuing him. But then like three plot twists and a lot of confusing timelines later it becomes so much deeper and suddenly?? There's angst??? I really wasn't prepared for the feels to creep up on me the way they did and then at some point (s) I ended up unexpectedly crying. Like I would be fine one moment and then the author would drop like one emotionally-packed line and I would just be gone (the author writes very powerfully during emotional moments, and I'm not sure if it carries over in the translations). Without spoiling much, the relationship between the two actually has so many hidden layers, and all of it gets disentangled at the very end of the story. So don't give up on the story if it gets too confusing, it all makes sense in the end! Though I gotta admit that I wasn't entirely satisfied with how everything got resolved, it felt like the author was forcibly trying to make everything make sense. And the way that it happened didn't really mesh naturally with the rest of the story. But like, I think it's admirable that she even tried to provide an explanation for everything, when most authors of transmigration novels would just kind of explain the whole system in broad strokes.

For me, the ML wasn't as memorable as the MC. He's technically just another one of those perfect characters with a traumatic backstory. That's not to say that he fell completely flat, it's kind of like... whenever he interacted with the MC, he felt very three-dimensional, vivid, alive. But he didn't feel very real outside of that. Of course, this is a reoccurring issue in a lot of romance stories, where the ML really only exists to love the MC. But! That's not to say I didn't like the ML! I wholeheartedly and very willingly fall into those traps of Mr Perfects who's cold and emotionless except for when with the MC. I love that sh*t keep giving me those cliches. And I think this story also technically falls under the umbrella of "sunny MC pulls gloomy ML out of the darkness" cliche BUT. B U T. IT'S DONE REALLY WELL SO IT'S FINE. Also, the MC isn't the naive and super innocent benevolent type that plagues this cliche. He's bright and pure, for sure, especially when put next to the ML, but he also is ready to beat up everyone who gets on his nerves.

The side characters were very cute LMFAO. The classmates of MC and the ML are f*cking adorable (except for I think that one kid in the very beginning I already forgot the name of). Like the author is so good at writing lively teenagers and immature yet undeniably really funny banter. And tbh that's why I like reading school life novels so much, because of the youthfulness of the whole atmosphere. And the author brings forth that youthfulness so well through all the side characters and the way they act and talk.

Anyways. School life + reincarnation/transmigration + some brain-boggling plot twists + a fair amount of face-slapping + OP MC + OP ML + cute side chars + really sweet romance + a sprinkling of angst + MC is a total f*cking badass did I mention that already. Highly recommend. I think pretty good re-readability too. <<less

100/10!

I registered here just to give this review😅

Anyway, this novel is the best at pulling at my heartstrings like a thread. I felt a lot of overwhelming feelings while reading this novel, and my heartbeat barely settled down to its usual rhythm due to it.

You will not regret reading this!

The author is really awesome for writing such a beautiful work. And I thank the translator/editors for working hard to give us the chance to view this masterpiece.❤

This is my first time writing a review. This novel is really good. I don't really agree with the comments if the Ml's character is too much, I think the background of the cannon fodder itself is bad. And the MC is so cute and yep he really works hard to learn. MC and Ml's relationship is also very great, there is a bit of sadness too. But I feel less I still want to see their relationship, but yeahh its already complete

THIS STORY'S SO GOOD AND FUNNY, I literally binge-read it in a day! Serving us a witty and shameless, but not embarrassing MC and a cunning, powerful, and sweet ML who likes to tease the shou! The plot's very interesting and the supporting characters were also well-built and funny! I had lots of good laughs and anticipation! I'm currently waiting for the latest chapter translation, but I'll give this one 10/10 right away!

I liked this story so much that I actually decided to read the MTL version! The main couple was adorable and I just really loved their dynamic.

One of my favorite parts though is how they explained the transmigration in the end. Everything comes full circle and it was just so satisfying.

Plot wise there were some loose ends that weren’t wrapped up by the end of the story, more like leaving their ending to the readers imagination. But overall, I think the plot was solid and pretty fun to read!

(some sort of spoilers)

I love this story so much!!!! TOT!!! To be honest I wish this was a bit more longer, but that it followed the same narrative line (like, I rlly like the narrativa path, but if the novel had at least 200 or so chapters some things could be better explained I think).

But, in overall, I like how the system and the universe lines were deal with, I like how "mental Power" was the way to put the main characters above the system self.

I think I... more>> only wish deep down that there were more extras, I rlly want see more of their University and Adult life, it doesnt need to be full explained or connected, just Sweet or funny episodes would be fine too :') but thats just a wishful thinking :') in any ways I am grateful for the extra Chapter 106 then ~ it was a quick peak but delightful ~

In the beginning the story was light and fun. All about face slapping bullies and scums. But then the dreams the MC had and the system (a.k.a as*hole of the year, tho the Master behind the system was the real f*cker) moments started to bring more drama to it. To be honest a sensitive person like me felt hard to follow up the mood swings in the narrative, like when the dream showed a plot twist and u feel Crazy bout it, but then in the next second MC force himself to calma down and goes to peaceful and funny and Sweet warm mood again, but this is not a bad thing, it makes the end (conclusion of the drama) even better (which makes me want to give a shot out for main cp dynamic! They are rlly wonderful for me! Most important, when they felt necessery (with out waiting much) they communicated! Most important characteristic in a couple rlly! I love their soulmate feels ~ with all their short falls and good points, they protect each other tenderly and never asks for more when they see that the other party is not willying, and I think that this "giving you space to think and live Your own thoughts" rlly sweet and wonderful ~

In any case, its a rlly nice story (plus, I, personally, dont rlly like System Transmigration stories coz Mc's always have to go through lot of sh*t coz of it's rules; and thats exactly what I love in this novel, MC doesnt give a f*ck about the system, he literally ignores it and even fights it, I love him so f*cking much-- I love a good fighter, strong mental capacity and witty Personality MC <3 nothing better ~ and even tho he is a little slow and shy in matters of love, after admiting and accepting his love for ML, he becames even more clear and sweet (still strong and cool ~ so handsome my Husband brother Yu ~) <<less

Good story, author is good at bringing a funny line for MC, I laughed at every chapter and whenever MC opened his mouth to speak. But ending is a bit rush for me even though it's an HE. I hope author would add some extras after they graduated from the university but it finished when they started university ahhhhh >_< I want more MC and ML fluffy love story.

plot twist! Haha, the villain isn't those 3 guys but the system and the so called "creator god" which actually is a greedy thief from the interstellar world.

MC is reborn 2 times. ML is reborn 1 time.

Spoiler

they got together (confession) around chapter 80-ish.

You might find the story a bit complicated because of the reborn and the dream (actual memories of MC and ml). Another problem, most characters from the beginning of the story just disappeared into thin air cuz author didn't mention them anymore, the older brother of MC, the cousin, the Gu guy, the Xie father, the Xu family, the girl who had a crush on ML.... and at the end I don't know whether MC's father approved of their relationship or not.... aiii still need more of this story.
But it's a good story. You can read this one if you want some funny BL and fluffy love story of the childhood sweetheart. <<less

This is such a good read, at first I thought there will a bunch of drama but then again I checked the genre and there was slice of life. I finished reading it and I'm so satisfied of the ending of how all the event played out. At some point in the middle of it I was like the child seeing there parents fighting but in my case I'm the child and the parents are the ML and MC, and it not really fighting MC just has to realize something... more>> to love ML. If you just came out of finishing reading a questionable novel that broke your 3 views then I recommend to read this cause the interaction of the two are so cute than I'm here smiling like a creep. <<less

It's pretty good

More fluff than anything

It's cute seeing them go from desk mates to lovers

Personally the romance was like a lively puppy and black bellied cat

Its amusing to watch

It's good for a quick read although the drama was resolved fairly quick

A small bit of angst but other than that

I reccomend

I have a huge weakness for troll MCs, so this story made me super happy! I love the way the MC boldly messes with everyone. The snarky face slapping left me very satisfied.

The MC's forum posts/internet trolling is my favorite.

I also love the way the MC keeps smashing the ML's enemies to protect him, not knowing that the ML has been reborn and is OP. The translator's comment, "Song Yu to the (unnecessary) rescue!" is very apt.

This is a story clearly meant to be fun and it hits the mark.

An enjoyable read but it does have a rushed ending and unexplained questions.

The beginning is great. I love the MC and his "righteousness" lmao. His no nonsense personality really resonated with me because in stories like these, the ones where the protagonist transmigrates into a scum novel, I feel like they don't show their anger as much.

To be perfectly honest, some of them aren't ruthless enough and when they find out the "original protagonist" of the novel did to their enemies the "transmigrated protagonist" always feel uncomfortable. That didn't make... more>> sense to me because those characters were scum.

But Song Yu? Nah, he'll beat your sh*t up. His indignation really connects with readers.

Additionally, the leads relationship development was really good but like I said, towards the end everything felt rushed. Around chapter 70+ I checked how many chapters were left and I was surprised because I think the novel needed a bit more to flesh out the love relationship and characters.

However, considering the fact that the story is a campus romance, aka studying and the like, there wasn't much too work with as it'd get repetitive. Adding onto the fact the ML didn't want to deal with the scum personally and wanted to watch them bite each other, there really isn't much to work with once again.

All in all, I still rated this a 5 star because I enjoyed the story. It was fun and the descriptions of the lively forums made me laugh.

But I was still disappointed with the unexplained answers about the "cube" and "smart civilization". And the lack of papapa despite the snippets of "adult" language here and there.

Anyways, an enjoyable read to past time. Many of the reviews already posted have said a lot about the Lead's characters and plot so I didnt bother.

5/5

Kind of read this (raws) a long time ago, gave up then came back because I saw more chapter being translated. Think I gave up because I didn't understand most of the chinese slangs. So really thankful to the translator!

It's a really fun and hilarious read, MC is a refreshing character and I liked his chemistry with ML (ML teasing him was very cute). The cast of side characters were lively and added much humour to the story as well.

Plot wise, it ramps up 180% towards the end of... more>> the story from a nice school life story to
Spoiler

system and other stuff that kind of threw the story off a little but was needed to wrap this story up. It wasn't the most convincing, in my opinion, but it was good enough for me. Also note that the 3 scums actually don't make much of an appearance in the book. The first scum appears the most, the second one was only briefly mentioned. But I liked how the story went in that aspect.

Just one thing about the extra:
Spoiler

I was a little disappointed that they didn't fully reveal MC and ML's relationship to the others? Haha I kind of wanted that final bit of face slapping. But alas, it was a nice wrap up reminiscent of the scene at the start of the book.
