Webnovel Review: Run With the Ball in the Last Day by 萝卜精

Title: Run With the Ball in the Last Day
Author: 萝卜精
Chapters: 67 chapters 
Publication: 2021
Summary from JJWXC:

Fangcheng lives very humble. 

The last days are coming, Xu Yi is still the strongest king, but he is so ordinary, and finally died in the tide of zombies. 

After rebirth, he wants to live well in troubled times. But I didn't expect that the supernatural power evolved by the body was actually to give birth to a child, and also picked up Xu Yi's cub? 

Leaving quickly while no one noticed. He started farming, collecting supplies, and establishing storage stations. 

When we met again, Xu Yi gave him a hand and pressed him against the wall: "Are you running?"

2.5 STARS - IT WAS OKAY

MY REVIEW: 

I felt like the story wasn't fleshed out well because it started abruptly and ended pretty quickly. From the summary, you find out that Feng Cheng was reborn. He knew that he was a substitute for his boyfriend's white moonlight but still fell in love with him. 

Since he was reborn, he decided to breakup with Xu Yi and focus on saving himself and his friends and family instead. You'd think with this type of set up, there would be some backstory on why they got together or how they fell for each other. It just seemed that Feng Cheng fell for Xu Yi one-sidedly while Xu Yi just kept him around him?? There's only a few chapters in total where they interact with each other. You don't understand why Feng Cheng loved him or was heartbroken because of him, so the relationship doesn't seem very real or even forced. Xu Yi doesn't even show up until near the end, so the romance is practically nonexistent. 

Feng Cheng's whole pregnancy was almost nonexistent either. I expected more pregnancy content, but it was brushed off with a time skip. Once the baby was born, he had more existence in the book but not much other than to show Xu Yi what he was missing out on. 

I was a bit disappointed that there was no extras. I wanted to see how the baby was doing in the future.
