3.5Short, sugar (baby/daddy) to lovers novel. Summary is somewhat misleading, both the NU Vers and original Chinese vers.Mc- reborn after dying an unpopular star, summary says he wants to be a salted fish but not really. He likes acting and being praised for his works, has been grounded down by the unfortunate reality of acting into a semi-inferior complex. Gives off a certain youthful, almost naive charm despite his second life.ML- president archetype, actually wanted to support MC with no uh benefits but MC kinda misread and formed a physical relationship. Nice guy, never really know what he's thinking.Romance- decent emotional depth, but suffers from novel being too short. Would do well to get a bit more angst and character interaction development. MC seems to fixate on ML as the turning stone of his new life. Not bad but somewhat lacking, can kind of understand why they fell for each other but also just not quite not enough convinced of it
