3 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I completely MTL'ed this book, and it was pretty confusing in the beginning. That definitely didn't help when you're trying to understand the characters as they're being introduced lol. 

The relationship was nice and funny as they reunited, but I think I would have enjoyed this a lot more if it was properly translated.

Summary from jjwxc:

As an interstellar female major general, Ren Tingxiao, a peerless straight daughter, died protecting the empire. When she opened her eyes, she found that she had become a coquettish bitch/good female supporting role in an interstellar novel. The female supporting role continued to fight to the death, competing for the favor of the emperor and the heroine, and was finally killed by the heroine. When the war broke out again, she became an abandoned child, was taken away by the enemy and died of humiliation. 

Ren Tingxiao: The old man on the subway looks at his face on his phone. 

She originally wanted to make a quick decision, finish what should be solved, and continue to do her own thing after finishing the plot. But she found out, why does this emperor, who is called iron-blooded and unintentional in the original text, look so much like Ling Zhuo, who was once the most beautiful man in the universe and also her best friend Ling Zhuo? 

She quickly flipped through the original text, and found that the hero Ling Zhuo had Bai Yueguang, who died young ten years ago, and he never forgot it. This Bai Yueguang's name is Ren Tingxiao. 

Ren Tingxiao: ... Good brother, you are so loyal. 

According to the plot, Ren Tingxiao met her brother and best friend. In this scene, she was supposed to be a stalker and must become the only concubine in Ling Zhuo's empty harem. 

Ling Zhuo looked at her, a violent wave of memories arose in the depths of his pupils. "She's my empress." 

Ren Tingxiao: ... 

You've made a brother out of nowhere! 

The war broke out, and Ren Tingxiao returned to the battlefield. The moment she held the joystick, she ruled the world like an emperor. This is her brother's country, how can you wait for her to be presumptuous! 

Later, when she stood on the top of the interstellar world, all the four corners of the universe surrendered. When all races mention that powerful country in the distant Milky Way, the first thing that comes to mind is that bold figure. She is not restricted by her identity, not trapped by race, but is crazily revered by all living beings, making the evil species of the universe kneel down. 

Ling Zhuo, who was already her husband, held the crown, walked past all the soldiers and civilians, and knelt devoutly on one knee in front of Ren Tingxiao. "I have paved the way for you ten years ago, and now I can finally give it back to you." Behind him, thousands of subjects saluted together, looking at her with eager admiration, expecting her to take over the crown. 

Ren Tingxiao: ...help. 

The heroine is the strongest, super strong, and invincible! Has heartthrob tendencies. Everything serves the heroine Qiang He Shuang.

4 STARS - I REALLY LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

There was a lot of faceslapping in the beginning, which I liked. I also liked the flipped gender roles. Ren Tingxiao was a self-assured charismatic leader while Ling Zhuo was her hopelessly smitten (and suffering) support throughout their time together.

Summary from Novel Updates:

Shi Yunnan was sent out of the country by his parents since he was young, and lived like an unloved child, but he still played around wantonly and relied on his appearance to make trouble~

As a result, he was deceived by his elders into returning home and was informed that he was about to marry the young master of the Luo family.

“What kind of feudalistic ideology is this? It’s outrageous!”

Shi Yunnan packed his luggage that night, planning to escape the next day, but when he fell asleep, he dreamed of a terrible scenario——

He dreamed that his life was just a supporting character in a book. Because he didn’t get along with the protagonist who transmigrated into the book, he eventually ended up in a situation of being forsaken by everyone.

All tragedies began with this willful escape from marriage.

After waking up, Shi Yunnan hadn’t had the time to let everything sink in when he was blocked at the door of his own house——

“Second young master Shi thinks that our Luo family is not worthy of you?”

The man in front of him had a heavenly face, his temperament was abstinent and outstanding. His whole body was wrapped in luxurious outfits. Even those long legs, which relied on wheelchairs, wildly shook second young master Shi’s aesthetic point.

Sigh, I’m a good boy who listens to his parents and matchmakers!

Shi Yunnan pretended to be reserved for three seconds, then nodded like a chicken pecking on rice, “Worthy, of course, you’re worthy! Is the wedding banquet ready? Husband~”

The man stared at his smiling face and answered subtly, “Let’s do it this evening.”

3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT

MY REVIEW: 

I really liked Shi Yunnan's wholesome relationship with his brother and his found family. Instead of the usual being competitive and jealous of your sibling, especially in wealthy families, you have brothers who support and care for each other. Little Goldfish was super cute and lovable, too!

Shi Yunnan's playfulness and Luo Lingsheng's endless doting was also pretty fun. The misunderstandings between them weren't too unrealistic and just to get the plot going.

There's a lot of faceslapping, which was great, but it did get tiring since it happened so often. Like, Shi Yunnan would run into a fight almost anytime he went out somewhere, which seemed overdone and unnecessary.
