Xu Fengyang's Perspective:
Staying up all night is one of the main causes of sudden death among young adults. It's true.
And if you're doing it to read a novel with a terrible ending, you really can get so angry you feel like you're dying.
Xu Fengyang is reborn as an insignificant passerby in a sci-fi novel, with the task of saving the aloof male supporting character before he turns evil.
But Xu Fengyang is a lunatic. Armed with the script of a wish-fulfillment novel about being reborn, he becomes a doting mom to a beautiful, powerful, tragic man.
The beautiful, powerful, tragic man treats him like a tool, but Xu Fengyang has the right attitude and plenty of ways to handle it;
The beautiful, powerful, tragic man plays the game of loving someone as a substitute, and who gets to enjoy it is anyone's guess;
The beautiful, powerful, tragic man says he never trusted him. Xu Fengyang says, "Son, beautiful women can't be trusted, and beautiful men definitely have ulterior motives."
None of that matters. Really.
If one day you discover that the whole world is against you,
please believe me:
It can only be the world's fault.
Xie Bian's Perspective:
At the age of twenty-four, Xie Bian already knew that you have to trick your wife into loving you.
His beloved likes aloof beauties, so he loves her to death while pretending to be indifferent;
His beloved is kindhearted, so he hides his bloodstained gloves in the garden;
His beloved wants to complete her mission, so he carefully manages his emotions and pretends to be saved;
His beloved says she loves him, so he pretends to believe her.
Whatever Xu Fengyang wants, Xie Bian gives him.
Once Xu Fengyang is satisfied, he won't bother to see through Xie Bian's act.
He tempts Xu Fengyang into his arms. He wants this person to willingly fall into depravity for his sake.
He won't allow anyone to save him, and he won't give him any chance to leave.
He wants his god to fall from the high altar,
to be covered in mud alongside him, with every path back cut off.
Don't say you love me. Don't leave me.
Theme: Being imperfect doesn't keep me from loving you.
It's so well written. ❤️ Looking forward to the follow-up.
