I'm glad I picked this up. After so many sweet and light novels, I needed a bit of drama and tears to unwind

ML exhibited some red fucking flags but at least he had an actual personality ayyyyy usually I can never bring myself to really enjoy an entertainment industry novel but this one was surprisingly pleasant and didn't assault me with cringe that much

I was very much into reading entertainment industry danmei this year all cause they were all so heartwarming and lighthearted read, this was one of them. Loved the dynamics of the main characters so much.

I absolutely loved this so much! This is my second rebirth novel and this doesn't disappoint me. I actually expected a lot of angst because I experienced it in my first rebirth novel, and though the angst here is not major, there were few times that I felt my heart ached. But overall, this novel is fluffy and sweet.
Bai Lang (MC), after getting betrayed by his friends, family and lover in his past life and was pushed to his last breath, he was then given a chance to start over again 10 years prior to his death. His relationship with Qiu Qian (ML) in his past life was actually not that good. He was constantly offered to be the latter's kept lover whenever he needed money for his family's debt and because of the feeling of being repressed and cornered by Qiu Qian, he didn't really have a good thought of him. But after his death, he only realized that when no one was there when he died, Qiu Qian was the only person who mourned for him. Their relationship in his second life also didn't start in a positive light, but what I love is how their feelings progressed from there, from being a 'paid lover' to being a real one.
Qiu Qian is a possessive partner but he NEVER forced Bai Lang into doing things he never wanted. They have a great communication in their relationship. At first, because of the idea of his rebirth and what happened in his past life, Bai Lang always kept his feelings to himself, but Qiu Qian is a straightforward guy. Though he's not eloquent enough in saying his feelings, he can still be blunt and sincere about it. So gradually, they established a very healthy communication in their relationship. They talked with each other and discussed things like an adult. There's no unnecessary misunderstanding and drama between them. They sincerely trust each other. They have a very sweet and fluffy relationship and I'm all for it! And Qiu Qian is a very supportive lover. When Bai Lang wanted to do something, he wouldn't stop him, instead he would stand by his side and support him. He would only interfer if it might affect Bai Lang's health, but most of the time, he's very encouraging. I really love their relationship so much!!
Also, introducing Qiu Qian's son, Xiaohai, was one of the best things that happened in this novel. He's an adorable, sweet little cinnamon roll that everyone would definitely adore!! He is the sunshine of both Qiu Qian and Bai Lang and he completed the harmonious family of three. I also find it so heart melting whenever he clings himself to his Ah Bai. His cuteness would make one wants to adopt him!!
Aside from the fluffiness of the family of three, there would also be a lot of face-slapping moments that would really satisfy everyone. And also, don't forget to read the extra chapters as well. We've got to see a short time-skip of the kids Xiaohai and Rong Zan in their teenager year and it's absolutely lovely!! Everyone should read this!! I highly recommend this novel to literally everyone!!

Siento que es una lectura sencilla, justo lo que buscaba para volver a la lectura sin agobiarme demasiado. Aunque eso también es problemático, ya que al final no me gustó tanto la relación de ambos personajes como esperaba.
Al final mi conclusión es aceptar que tengo un conflicto personal con las novelas chinas. Ninguna termina convenciendome todavía, ya sea por motivos de narración o la forma de construir a sus personajes.
ACABO DE ACORDARME QUE TAMBIÉN ME CUESTA LEER ROMANCE QUE SEA PURO ROMANCE SLICE OF LIFE AAAA DOLOR, OPINIONES PERSONALES Y ESO

I only started reading chinese novels last year and this is my favorite so far. I loved Bai Lang and Qiu Qian together and Qiu XiaoHai is the sweetest and most adorable baby.

A nice rebirth romance without unnecessary misunderstandings--main characters are adults and behave like it. Starts out slightly problematic but quickly turns wholesome. I really enjoyed this.

Such a cute and fluffy read. No smut, which I was surprised because the plot seemed as though it would have one but it wasn't a big problem nor did it lessen my enjoyment of the book. Definitely a rec, especially because the kid was cute. Very domestic scenes heavy. They just love each other.
