Ren Xingliu transmigrated into a world in troubled times, struggled for half of his lifetime, and eventually achieved success and recognition, working as a good general and minister. Then he returned to modern times, when he was just about to graduate from university.
Ren Xingliu who had his fill of wind and frost: I’m beat. Simplicity is the way to go.
—
Ren Xingliu, the ignorant, incompetent, reckless and daring young master of the Ren Family, was about to graduate. Everyone was waiting to watch him turn the Ren Family completely on its head. One with malicious intentions even deliberately introduced him to an honest person without status or background, Bai Juanqiu.
Never did he expect Ren Xingliu to be so content with this honest person.
Ren Xingliu: He seemed to be someone who could live a carefree life with. Alright, let’s make do with this.
Bai Juanqiu had been putting on his honest persona for twenty years, but those people still wouldn’t let him live in peace and went ahead and introduced him to a notorious silk pants. Bai Juanqiu decided to stop pretending.
Afterward…
Bai Juanqiu: Well, let me just eat my delicious words, because I can keep pretending for two more years.



This maturity is evident in his interactions with other adults and in how he manages conflicts. Instead of losing his cool, he remains level-headed and in control.
The male lead (ML) is also quite straightforward in his goals, primarily wanting to break free from his uncle's influence and pursue his own path. While their relationship is described as complicated, the uncle’s presence is minimal, and the issue is resolved efficiently and without unnecessary drama.
, it's a smooth and enjoyable read, and the translator's notes on idioms add a valuable layer of insight. It’s great to thank both the author for crafting this story and the translator for making it accessible to a wider audience.
This isn't a novel that will leave a lasting impression, but it's a good choice for a quick read.
The first part of this novel is genuinely hilarious; the author has a great comedic touch. It’s even funnier if you have a basic understanding of Chinese sayings, slang, and internet culture, but the translator included plenty of notes, so it’s not a problem if you’re not familiar with them.
I’ve always felt that comedy as a genre can either be a hit or a miss, depending on:
a) Whether the author is actually funny or just thinks they are, and
b) How well your sense of humor aligns with the author’s.
For me, this novel’s comedy was definitely a hit. However, the later parts shift away from comedy and focus more on emotional development, which becomes more serious. The main characters have a very healthy relationship, and their interactions are smooth and easy. While I didn’t feel an overwhelming chemistry between them, they were certainly cute together.
This is not your typical brainless, face-slapping, nonsensical rich young master plot. Most characters are intelligent, except for the male lead’s somewhat dimwitted cousin, but that adds a touch of realism. The plot is centered on the romance and character development, avoiding clichés and maintaining logical consistency. There’s surprisingly little drama, which is refreshing.
, it’s a nice read. High quality, but not outstanding. The early chapters had me laughing out loud.
That said, I'm a bit disappointed that the 'god of war' aspect doesn't really come into play. The MC is intelligent, and there's a team-building mini-arc where he's overpowered, but the whole idea of him being a brilliant general and an amazing fighter never really materializes due to the current timeline's circumstances. I kept waiting for him to showcase some incredible feats that earned him the 'god of war' title, but it never happened. While it makes sense given his original body wasn't that of a fighter, it still feels like a missed opportunity. There should have been something more.
Additionally, every chapter had me giggling uncontrollably. The comedy was excellent. Sometimes a chapter starts off really sweet and romantic, but the ending has me laughing out loud. The main character is so chaotic, and the love interest’s attitude is always, “Well, what can I do if my heart is already his?” 🤣
The translation is also very satisfying. I loved every footnote! Thank you so much, dear translator! ♡ (˶˃wt˂˶)
