Determined to expose the truth, Yu Mian chooses to forsake those who betrayed him from his past life, embarking on a captivating face-slapping adventure within a romantic reality TV show. Fortuitous circumstances and karmic retribution align, as love追逐着他的步伐. The entire series was an endearing and fulfilling read, with the readers' comments delightfully reveling in the comeuppance of the绿茶. The newfound pleasure of watching one's lover suffer alongside the antagonist's downfall has become a delightful trope. Many thanks to Rainbow Turtle for the translations.
I'm not really into this type of thing. I didn't enjoy how quickly everyone fell for You Mian; their behavior towards him annoyed me. Initially, I thought they deserved it, but constant repetition became unbearable, especially when it came to dramatic scenes. There were numerous plot holes that bothered me, like why nobody questioned the sudden appearance of the heir for two years.
I empathized with the other Guan Tong and Shen Nanxiao, trapped in a confusing three-sided love situation. I wasn't expecting the reality TV aspect, which caught me off guard. It wasn't surprising to see Bai Lin exploit others' work, or the father's damage control at the press conference, or the lawyer's actions regarding You Mian's adoption and past. You Mian's exceptional skills and genius status were predictable.
I didn't like the rushed shift in focus from Bai Lin to You Mian, which happened abruptly. It felt like a 50-chapter story stretched out due to repetitive elements, which disappointed me. However, there were some positive aspects. Pei Huaiji and You Mian's relationship had moments of sweetness, and I appreciated their connection. It was heartwarming to see You Mian rely on Huaiji, open up to him, and let him support him through tough times, considering Huaiji as his little genius.
The Guan Tong, Shen Nanxiao, and You Mian friendship was adorable. Overall, while there were flaws, there were redeeming qualities in the story.
"Here's a heartwarming and feel-good story that's perfect for those seeking a healthier, yet indulgent reading experience. The main character, ML, is lovable and respectful throughout, making every moment with Mianmian worthwhile. The narrative is light and enjoyable, thanks to the translator for their hard work. If you're looking for an uplifting tale, this one is worth exploring; the story only gets better as you delve deeper."
The story had me laughing out loud! The author playfully subverts the cliché of the stern CEO with stomach problems, an icy demeanor, no family background, and a tragic past. Pei HuaiYi stands out as a refreshing change from typical male leads and his cuteness almost wins me over more than the main character. The Pei family is a delightful contrast, full of lovable, kind individuals, not like the scheming uncle or the secretive grandfather.
However, the You family is a different story – they come across as despicable. It's hard to believe their actions, from stealing a baby to manipulating it for their own gain, suppressing the child's talents, it's all just too much. The main character is truly pitiful, and Bai Lin, or whatever her name is, is a conniving nobody.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this novel despite its low rating. It's a lesson in not judging a book by its cover. And to the translator, your work is beautifully done!
The book provides a delightful, feel-good reading experience. The main character (MC) handles toxic relationships by cutting ties decisively, which is refreshing. Although the MC's abilities may be overpowered, it fits the narrative. The development of the characters who initially ignored him is well-written, showing their growth as they realize their mistakes. The male lead (ML) initially demonstrates respect for boundaries and patiently waits for the MC to open up, creating a comfortable dynamic.
The storytelling structure is engaging, focusing on both the show's events and the characters' personal lives, giving readers a realistic TV show-within-a-story feel. However, the book falls short with excessive description in certain sections, making it difficult to read at times. The translation and the author's tendency to elaborate on physical details excessively contribute to this issue. Had the author tightened the prose, the novel could have easily been a five-star read. Despite this, the overall positive aspects make it a solid choice for a light-hearted contemporary story.

通常我对后宫题材有所保留，所以当初看到这部小说有这个元素时，我犹豫了。但后来发现，这其实并不是真正意义上的后宫，而是纯粹的一对一恋爱故事。虽然有许多角色对主角表现出兴趣，但他们从未真正成为情敌，主角始终只关注男主角。尽管有后宫元素，但我非常喜欢这部作品。
结局非常令人满意，那些曾经背叛并无视主角的人最后成为了追求者，而主角坚决地划清界限，这是我很欣赏的地方。男主角是主角的理想伴侣，他是个典型的霸道总裁，但在主角面前却懂得克制，从不强加观点，他真心赞赏和支持主角，即使面对追求者，他也选择让主角自行处理，展现出体贴的一面。他的情商可能不高，但对主角极其用心，绝对是一面鲜明的绿旗，是我读过的耽美小说中最温柔的那种。
当然，小说中也有一些小瑕疵，并不影响整体阅读体验，因此我给它打4.5分。但总的来说，我非常喜欢这部作品，强烈推荐给大家。
