I’m Pregnant With a Wealthy Old Man’s Child Chapter 79 Discussion

MTL'd which was doable.

Pretty cliche and was unexpectedly containing fantasy elements - which I didn't pick up from the sypnosis, so I was a bit surprised. Tbh it's kinda random in the novel, it's like a separate plot setting. I did expect more moments with the MC's child! But it all just seems to involve the child crying and needing either parent to coax it back to sleep... disappointing. MC is also SOOO awkward with the child, it makes me wonder whether it was actually the ML that gave birth.

I liked MC and ML's relationship in the beginning though I guess it is a bit hard to go over MC's (or the original body's) misdeeds before the transmigration.. I just can't fully click in with their romance and felt it was a bit dull.

I thought there'd be more focus on how the MC works to avoid the supposed flow of the novel's plot, but that wasn't really the case. MC just accepts whatever happens and doesn't really make an effort to change the tide (or run away - as he initially planned when he first transmigrated in the story) for instance whenever the female lead is involved in the story:

Spoiler

MC gets pressured by the flow of the media and forwards the female lead's reposts of his original posts. Never tries to avoid interacting yet wonders how he finds himself tangled up with the female lead.

Accepts his new agent despite knowing that the agent also has the female lead under their assignment..

I am quite happy that the author has given MC some personality compared to the usual wishy washy, meek MCs I've seen. Grateful for his 180cm height, the fact he's not unusually lightweighted, etc or any characteristic that'd make him comparable to a girl in appearance.

I figured I'll just stop here as there really isn't anything else motivating me to read beyond this point. Not a big fan of the fantasy plot which only seems to act as an excuse for MC to have security against backlash or his initial lack of funding/financial independence. Confession wasn't really fireworks-worthy either.. There also weren't any fixed antagonists in the story that would make me want to stay.
