Mini Reviews: Why is the Holy Son So Delicate?; In Order to Support Me, Big Shots Kneels Down Before Me!; The Daily life of the Apocalyptic Passerby

Title: Why is the Holy Son So Delicate?
Author: Gu Yan
Chapters: 75 chapters 
Publication: 2020
Summary from Novel Updates:

Pei Xia transmigrated into a discontinued western fantasy novel and became the unlucky cannon fodder who had a pure body that was coveted by evil spirits and was constantly suffer death threats.

The protagonist of the novel was Lucifer, the holy son from the Church of Light. He possessed a beautiful appearance and divine purification ability.

The novel’s description:

The Holy Son, who had a charming physique, feels extremely distressed by his popularity.

Therefore, Pei Xia decided to become a guard for his chastity to avoid the fate of being possessed by evil spirit.

It’s just that…….

When his admirer overbearingly pursued him, the Holy Son weakly leaned against Pei Xia’s arms, pitiful and adorable, “He is so fierce, I’m scared.”

When the demonic beasts attacked, the Holy Son held Pei Xia’s waist and buried his head into the crook of Pei Xia’s neck, shivering, “Xia, protect me.”

When assassins struck, Pei Xia blankly watched as the Holy Son decapitated one of the attackers with a single slash of his sword. His blood-stained lips raising into a seductive arc, but the moment he saw him, he let out a wet sob as he fainted onto the ground.

Pei Xia, “…..”

Holy Son, “Why don’t you have wicked thoughts towards me?”

Pei Xia (who actually does have wicked thoughts but has forcefully suppressed them), “Because w̶e̶’̶r̶e̶ ̶b̶o̶t̶h̶ ̶b̶o̶t̶t̶o̶m̶s̶ I am very pious in my faith.”

Lucifer smiled and said, “In that case, join me in my room tonight, and let’s hear the lord’s voice together.”

3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

This was hilarious! Both of them lied about themselves, so the misunderstandings kept on building and building, which led to hilarious situations. The best misunderstanding was that Pei Xia kept on assuming that Lucifer was a bottom and that there was no way they could get together since he was also a pure bottom lmao. It didn't help that Pei Xia was too oblivious to notice any of Lucifer's hints lol.

Summary from Novel Updates:

Mu Yao has been living a miserable life by working hard and saving money as much as she can. Meanwhile, her blood-sucking auntie will always take her hard earned money by saying guilt inducing words to Mu Yao about her dead parents.

The foreman of her performance group owed her many of her wages, while, the brother next door, who she had a engagement deal with, hooked up with a Bai Fumei (White, rich and beautiful girl) and abandoned her.

One night, when Mu Yao went to the vegetable market in order to grab groceries at discounted price, three elegant and luxurious cars suddenly stopped right in front of her.

The three handsome guys, who looks like stars, walked towards Mu Yao together.

Each of them took out a black card and said: “Sister! Come home with us!”

Mu Yao: “Wait a minute! Let me just grab some discounted eggs!”

Her three brothers were reborn, so they knew about Mu Yao being their long-lost little sister.

In their last life, Mu Chunchun, the adopted daughter who was regarded by the family as their own child, has been trying hard to prevent Mu Yao being found by the Mu Family.

Now that they were reborn, they are determined to give double the favor and wealth robbed by Mu Chunchun to Mu Yao!

Multinational group bosses, entertainment celebrities, national treasure-level directors, young scientific research, stars..

Almost every big shot with a good looks are holding big gifts and begging Mu Yao to spend their money.

Brothers:? ? ?

3 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I liked it enough. 

This was a different perspective on transmigration and rebirth novels. For once, Mu Yao, the main character has no idea that she's living in a book world or that her brothers are all reborn and that another character transmigrated into the book. This leads to a lot of people knowing the general direction of the book except for the main leads themselves lol. 

Mu Yao's growth in her career and romance was a nice slow burn, but I got tired of the internet opinion sections being used to serve as future faceslaps because it became repetitive and boring after the second time it happened.


Title: The Daily life of the Apocalyptic Passerby
Author: 对游绝
Chapters: 92 chapters
Publication: 2020
Summary from jjwxc:

Pei Qinqin is an accidental book wearer. She is neither the protagonist nor the supporting role. She is not even the cannon fodder ABCD. At best, she is just a nameless passerby who participated in the beginning of the end times without any psychological preparation.

When she escaped from the dead and was driven to a dead end, the "God" came bathed in morning light.

This "God" was wearing striped pajamas, carrying a simulation|gun, and stepping on the cobblestone roof with his white jade feet. It was immortal and grounded.

Seeing that he had finished solving a wave of zombies, Pei Qinqin quickly wiped his face to promote himself: "Brother, brother stretched out your hand! I can do laundry, cook, and clean, and I can also tell jokes and warm the bed!"

No need.

Qin Chuan glanced at her sadly, then turned around to go back to the house.

Pei Qinqin looked at his vegetable garden, then watched the new wave of zombies yelling: "Brother! I will grow vegetables, fish and hatch chickens!!"

Hatching chickens?

Qin Chuan throws away the simulation|The gun stretched out her hand and said: "Jump over!"

Pei Qinqin looked at the distance between the two floors at least half a road wide: "..." If I can jump over, I still have to ask you for help.

3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I really liked the main characters and their bantering! I loved how Pei Qinqin kept on testing Qin Chuan's bottom line to see how far she could get without making him angry in the beginning and seeing how their dynamic slowly changed as they spent more time together. 

Pei Qinqin's pet plants were also super cute and hilarious! 

I liked the twist near the end as well. The villain really is a super delusional creep though.
