Summary: Very sweet and awesome. The following review contains spoilers; please click with caution. First, let me state my own preferences: I'm a balanced reader with a slight emphasis on the dominant partner, and I'm not a protagonist-obsessed reader. I enjoyed reading it very much, loved it, and would recommend it to everyone.
Brother Shen's character is absolutely fantastic. He's a time traveler from ancient times, possessing the elegant demeanor and exceptional talent of a noble young master. He's also incredibly magnanimous and intelligent. Crucially, he's handsome and has superhuman martial arts skills. In modern times, he became an internet addict and had a bad temper when he woke up.
Honestly, I felt the contrast in this story was incredibly striking. From starting out in a small county town to becoming a CEO and top star in a big city, their relationship in the middle was truly heartbreaking. I kept hoping they would reconcile, but they did just that after a couple of stops.
Amazing! Our Clan Chief Shen is incredibly gentle. In the early stages, Yuan Yuan was insecure because he couldn't see, but Shen Muyan patiently guided him and helped him overcome his insecurity, enabling him to balance their love. Muyan is like a guiding, fatherly boyfriend, teaching Yuan Yuan how to be strong, love others, and love himself.
A journey through time, a tender and loving two-way journey. Although there are separations, they truly value this relationship, and the separations are only for a better reunion. The supporting characters are also adorable. Brother Shen truly deserves to be called a heartthrob; he's so charming that I feel like no one could help but love him, and that the whole world should love him.
Yuan Lin and Shen Muyan are both gentle people. My favorite line is from Shen Muyan: "I never doubted your feelings. There were no misunderstandings between us, only the unpredictability of life and my inability to handle you." It's great that the author didn't force the tragedy; indeed, you never know what tomorrow will bring. But!
I came from the first two books. I personally really like the author's style. The writing is delicate, solid, and bold. In particular, it has the unconventional approach that the author mentioned. I love the author's style. I look forward to this book coming soon.
Xiao Shen's character really resonates with me. He exudes a calm and steady aura, always able to act with a clear conscience no matter what happens. He's someone we should all learn from. Of course, we might really need someone like Shen to guide us during our formative years, like a calming presence amidst the confusion and excitement of our youth, providing a sense of security.
This is truly the most morally upright duo of male protagonists I've ever seen. They don't use profanity to insult women, they respect women, and they defend mothers. (Insults to women are a trigger for me when reading books, so I pay extra attention to this aspect.) The characters are well-developed and engaging, the plot unfolds gradually, and the writing style is top-notch, even by Tomato's standards.
It's super, super good! I finished it in one afternoon. The plot is amazing, both heart-wrenching and sweet, with mutual affection between the two characters. There are definitely some angst in the middle, but the ending is a rollercoaster of emotions as the character tries to win back her love. The love is direct and straightforward.
