I had no clue about this book. And while I do love bl dramas and books, I don’t actively look for them and just go by what everyone is talking about. So thank you to my friend Dany for recommending it to me and I didn’t even realize that this was by the same author who wrote the amazing Golden Stage. 

Apparently this is kind of an AU spin-off of Golden Stage, but you won’t realize that unless you’ve read GS and are more than midway through this one. But that doesn’t matter. This book is ultimately a very cute and fluffy romance between a rich businessman with family problems and a genius professor. They seem like such an unlikely couple but fall in love pretty easily and I loved how seamless their relationship was. There was hardly any angst, probably just one chapter with some jealousy which ended up being hilarious, and some business intrigue which resulted in a couple of absolutely badass scenes. I still can’t decided if I like Sun Zinan or Tang Kai but they definitely are perfect for each other. 

Overall, this was just super fun. If you need a break from all the angsty bl novels and just want a short novel with some fluff, this one is perfect. It’s a very quick read which will bring lots of smiles on your face.

 This was simply just sweetness. Watching these two go from an unlikely bickering acquaintance to a sweet, strong, and supportive relationship suffused me with happiness. I just really enjoy how much these two communicate and get along; how their bickering leads to laughter, all the card game jokes, the little bout of sulky jealousy, MC's supportive uncles, the MC's practicality and unwillingness to disrespect others
telling him almost immediately that he wanted to marry him to retain his inheritance! Wanting to break up immediately upon finding out his father only wanted them together to use the ML's family! He was so willing to potentially hurt himself in order to ensure the ML wasn't disserviced
  T__T I loved them both so much. I could just keep listing all of the things.

It was sweet, low conflict, and a wonderful relationship. Highly recommend if you want to read something short, light, and guaranteed to put you in a good mood.
