See Weibo @Liu Gouhua for details.] According to unofficial histories, the Great Liang war god Huo Wujiu was once captured by an enemy state, had his meridians severed and both legs crippled, and was locked away in a dungeon.

   October 5, 2026. The protagonist (gong) is practically a prisoner, facing imminent death, yet he remains incredibly arrogant. If he values dignity more than life, why doesn't he simply commit suicide to avoid humiliation? If he values life more than dignity, he should at least behave himself, or at least conceal his arrogance. The protagonist's attitude is somewhat jarring. The other protagonist (shou) is clearly the one with the power to manipulate the protagonist, yet he acts cautiously, always sleeping in bed, while the protagonist replies with an extremely arrogant tone. Furthermore, his subordinates are utterly absurd, causing various misunderstandings and displaying bizarre thoughts; they seem merely tools to advance the protagonist-shou relationship, bordering on stupidity. There are also various outdated misunderstandings and plot points (although this book is indeed from several years ago), so clichéd.

   October 3, 2027. I'm not very interested in folklore, and more importantly, I don't like the romance plot. Also, the protagonist is extremely sickly in the early stages, but he's gone in the second arc, which is a shame considering I like the sickly trait. I'm also really indifferent to love-hate relationships. I only read the beginning of the second arc, and there was already a romance plot (or rather, interaction between the main characters) right from the start. I originally wanted to see the main characters' adventures, but seeing the romance plot made me lose interest. I usually quite like infinite flow romance plots, but I really don't want to read this kind of love-hate relationship anymore; Nightmare and Shocking Training are both like that.

   September 24, 2027. A classic merman romance novel, overall quite good. The downside is the slightly awkward romance between the main characters. The main character calls the other character "commander," and the other calls the main character "brother," which are actually acceptable in themselves, but I don't know why they feel so awkward in the story. I basically stopped reading after the synopsis; it got a bit boring later on. Also, the other character is really too kind, or rather, very polite and kind to others, sometimes appearing a bit naive and innocent. This character type didn't particularly appeal to me.

   Curator note

   September 25, 2027. Everything else was fine, except the scene where the protagonist (uke) got drunk felt a bit abrupt. He'd had similar dreams before, so why did he want to go to a bar this time? And why did he call the other protagonist (seme) while drunk and even kiss him while looking for a condom in the car? This really felt like a character departure. The plot was moving too fast; the protagonist probably hadn't resolved his inner conflict yet. However, to be fair, the protagonist in this story wasn't the type to harbor intense hatred and desire for revenge from the beginning (although I think he should have been more hateful to fit the character). When he dreamt that the other protagonist forced himself on him, he was more shy than hateful (actually, I think he should have hated). And all of the other protagonist's friends were incredibly love-struck, almost to the point of being mentally deficient.

   August 30, 2026. It's pretty good. The protagonist is very cunning and has a high IQ, and he's sickly from beginning to end. The political intrigue is also good with no major flaws, and the plot doesn't drag. There aren't many romantic subplots. The male lead isn't just a background character, but when they're together, they mostly talk about serious matters, and there's not much flirting or ambiguity, so the romance doesn't feel like a lot.

   Curator note

   The writing is terrible, the plot is incredibly stiff, and some parts are completely nonsensical. The character development is also mediocre; I haven't seen any redeeming qualities yet. // I saw recommendations saying that "The King of Hell Marries a Wife" is extremely good, and I've been holding back until now. The plot and writing are slightly better than before, but the story of the Moon Goddess and the Morning Goddess really infuriated me. I hate this kind of plot; there are always misunderstandings without any dialogue. It doesn't feel like a slashing scene, just infuriating and disgusting. // I came for the romance, since most infinite flow novels focus on plot and have less romance, but the romance in this one is also very mediocre. First of all, the seme is basically "love at first sight," meaning he has full affection from the very first meeting and is extremely kind to the uke. There's no process of falling in love. The uke is a little slow on the uptake but not completely clueless. Then, the seme often has some very inexplicable thoughts (not even misunderstandings, since it's one-sided), like whether he thinks I'm not good enough for him, or whether he looks down on me... I get annoyed every time I see these. In every aspect, it's lacking. I feel it's still a problem with the writing; some parts of the plot made me increasingly frustrated. The plot is riddled with holes. For example, in the third world, the protagonist enters to save his friend, the sole survivor. His friend's mouth is cut off by the Slit-Mouthed Woman on the first day of the dungeon, and he remains there until the end, leaving him with no information. The protagonist enters to help his friend recover. He knows nothing because his friend saw nothing, but were there no other streamers who entered? You could watch other streamers' recordings. And even if there were no other streamers in his friend's group, weren't there streamers in the previous groups? How could a C-rank dungeon be entirely populated by ordinary people without any streamers? Most ordinary people would go to E-rank dungeons, so the reason for not obtaining any dungeon information is absurd. The main issue is that the streamer's audience is from the real world, unlike the parallel/high-dimensional inhabitants of other infinite flow streams. Here, the audience and streamer live on the same planet, making many settings from other infinite flow streams seem very strange. The author may not even realize the difference between their audience and those of other infinite flow streams, writing in the same way.

   The beginning was incredibly good; everyone was so kind to Mianmian, she had that "everyone's favorite" vibe. It's a shame I didn't really like the later career storyline.

   I initially thought the seme would be the gentle, loyal type, but I didn't expect the seme's reaction after the uke watched the striptease at the bar to be so forceful.

    It seemed like a sweet and fluffy story from the start. I initially thought that after the seme woke up, the uke would just be a little disoriented for a while, then gradually realize he also liked the seme, and the two would smoothly get together. The story even mentioned that the uke felt something different about the seme before the seme woke up and had gotten used to being with him and holding him. However, after the seme woke up, the uke kept avoiding him and mistakenly thought the seme was a pervert who had secretly loved him for three years, so he tried to run away. I don't know if he actually ran away, because I couldn't stand that part. The beginning seemed like a pure sweet and fluffy story. Sweet and fluffy stories shouldn't have these messy, illogical misunderstandings and obstacles, okay? I'm already fed up with misunderstandings, silence, and endless back-and-forth. I didn't expect a sweet and fluffy story to have this kind of plot. Finally, to briefly describe the characters: the seme is aloof and unapproachable to others, but his actual personality is very childish (not in a derogatory sense), a huge contrast, and a little immature. The uke is hard to describe; he seems like an ordinary, generally positive uke, without any particularly outstanding characteristics. Little Sun isn't exactly a silly or silly character, nor is she gentle; she's just a bit greedy.

    The protagonist (shou) is a bit assertive, at least in the first world. It's not really a matter of who pursued whom; initially, the seme (gong) became interested and tried to seduce the shou, but the shou resisted, leading to a cold war. Because the shou resisted and gave the seme the cold shoulder, the seme simply stopped contacting him. Essentially, the shou wanted to maintain distance but didn't want to completely sever ties, which angered the seme, leading to a complete break in contact. The shou, being the type, didn't continue pursuing the seme, and the two remained out of contact. Finally, the shou heard someone liked the seme and couldn't resist anymore. The reason I don't want to continue reading is that it either leans towards the seme or involves mutual pampering; this one leans towards the seme but isn't quite the main character, which doesn't satisfy my needs.

    It's so good! The protagonist (shou) has a slightly aloof yet adorable charm, with a dry sense of humor. The atmosphere within the secret guard group is incredibly warm and cozy, without the oppressive feeling of a superior-subordinate relationship. The antagonist's empathy is truly remarkable; I've never seen a character like this before, I'm genuinely amazed. The antagonist is truly exceptional. Nowadays, most ants are domineering and aloof; gentle ants are already rare, and those with strong empathy are even rarer. Moreover, this antagonist is quite cunning, a trait that seems so seldom seen these days. I remember it being incredibly popular when I first started reading novels, but it's practically nonexistent in recent years. The antagonist's cunning is also well-written, perfectly matching my understanding of the cunning archetype—intelligent yet capable of feigning weakness, with a touch of scheming. The antagonist's personality is further enhanced by a gentler side, perfectly capturing the essence of a cunning character who overcomes strength with gentleness and intelligence rather than direct confrontation. It feels incredibly fitting. I've only read a dozen chapters so far, and the synopsis didn't initially impress me, but I've been pleasantly surprised by so many delights. The writing style is light and natural, not awkward, and right in every aspect at this stage.

And it's not just one or two words; the entire setting is strongly connected to reality, and it's even about technology. It's so embarrassing I can't continue reading. The writing style also feels very formulaic and stiff, and the protagonist is too overpowered, making it really awkward to read.

    So boring! I've only read six chapters, but I don't want to continue, even though there aren't any major issues. //I searched for spoilers, and the later parts seem to be about the two protagonists working together to tacitly fight against the system. It's actually quite similar to the author's series on fixing bugs. In that series, the protagonist immediately gave up the body of the protagonist who had been swapped, and despite the protagonist's many suspicious points, he still trusted him. The two had a great understanding and worked well together. This one seems to have a similar tone. Actually, I quite like this kind of story; it's probably a case of two strong characters, and this kind of tacit understanding where the other person understands with just a glance is really sweet. I quite like it. I think I started reading this book when it was being serialized, but the synopsis at the time didn't make any sense to me (and it still doesn't). The system wanted the protagonist to do tasks, and the protagonist kept saying he wanted to eat jajangmyeon (noodles with soybean paste). So, was he trying to show off? Did the protagonist love to eat? Was he disobeying the system? In short, it was quite confusing at the time. Now, after reading a few more chapters, I understand the plot a bit better, but for those who haven't read the main text, it's probably still hard to grasp the meaning. However, the main reason I'm dropping it now is because the first few chapters were boring.

    I think I read this book when it was still being serialized, and I was particularly impressed by the wolf-like setting. While browsing recommendations for other books by the same author, I noticed the name looked familiar, and after checking the author's column, I realized I recognized several of their titles, which reminded me of this book. Its strengths lie in its excellent first-person perspective; the seme is a wolf, and the uke is his destined one. The seme craves the uke's blood and becomes frustrated if he can't have it, and this is his one true love. Moreover, this setting is a pure love story, without any coercion or oppression. A wolf only needs a drop of blood to survive a week, and emotions take precedence over biological instincts. I really like the way the seme and uke interact and their character designs. The uke is strong and somewhat capricious. The seme is gentle and restrained, and very respectful of the uke. The story is basically about the seme chasing after the uke; the seme falls in love instantly, but the uke is somewhat indifferent. Although the uke is also moved, he is strong, has a somewhat cold and capricious personality, and is a bit of a fun-loving person, so he seems a bit colder than the seme. The two main characters (the seme and uke) likely knew each other before, but the uke has lost his memory. Based on some of his memories, it's speculated that the uke becoming a main god and coming here to fix bugs is related to the seme. In his memories, the seme has been chasing the uke through many worlds, and the uke is gradually moved. The downsides are that the plot feels a bit uninteresting, fixing bugs is somewhat tedious, the uke is a bit cold, the plot is slightly awkward, and the earlier flashbacks are a bit confusing.

    This is insane! While I enjoy revenge tropes and the author's portrayal of the doppelganger's awakening is quite compelling, this book still doesn't really suit my taste. The protagonist's cheat ability is excessively powerful; he's incredibly intelligent. The other protagonist is completely insane; seeing someone with a face identical to the protagonist makes him want to kill them. He escaped from a mental hospital, and in his past life, after the protagonist's death, he locked himself in a tomb, intending to commit suicide. This tomb is later unearthed and becomes a tourist attraction, but the current tomb is actually a decoy; the real tomb's entrance is in a hidden spot on a nearby mountain. It's a bit far-fetched, set in the modern world, but many of the settings are absurd and almost beyond the realm of science. The other protagonist is completely indifferent to his body, a total lunatic. He wants a new identity in front of the protagonist to be with him, so he gets plastic surgery. I feel like I don't understand the plot. And almost all the supporting characters are incredibly disgusting. I've never seen such disgusting supporting characters before. In other novels, there are at most one or two in a book, but in this one, almost all the supporting characters who have some kind of grudge against the protagonist are extremely disgusting. He's a violent, promiscuous, and double-crosser; his father is gay, and after his lover's death, he adopts his son and then falls in love with him. The descriptions of these disgusting supporting characters fantasizing about the protagonist or the uke were truly nauseating; they were all villains. The good points are that I quite liked the premise, and the uke's intelligence and resourcefulness are also my type. Plus, the uke is genuinely sickly—a beautiful but fragile character. I'll drop it after chapter 30. //After rereading, this revenge plot actually feels quite similar to the submissive uke's awakening. It's watchable if you're bored and don't think too much. However, the misunderstanding between the seme and uke in their past lives feels incredibly absurd and low-brow. The seme is madly in love, to the point of death, and this is misunderstood as the seme hating him and wanting to kill him? It doesn't fit the uke's intelligent character at all. And let alone intelligent, I don't think even an ordinary, normal person would have such a misunderstanding.

    I can't take it anymore, I really can't read it. The beginning was so good, the first twenty? Twenty-five chapters? The "Most Popular Character" was written so enjoyably, even better than those serious harem/harem novels. But it felt like the story got progressively dumber towards the end. The protagonist isn't supposed to be stupid, but even though it's so obvious that others like him, he still thinks they like the other protagonist. Then, after the other protagonist helps him recover from the herbal medicine, he thinks he slept with the other protagonist. It's not just the romance; the plot itself is also a bit awkward, I can't stand it. And the emperor, the royal uncle, and the cross-dressing protagonist—these guys really don't suit my taste. They lack respect, sometimes even force themselves on him, they're just rotten romances. Can't the protagonists who claim to like someone but do things the protagonist finds repulsive just stay away?! I can't stand these kinds of protagonists. The reviews say this book started slowly but improved, but I really can't stand it until the end; the writing is a bit weak. For me, the beginning before the paid chapters was better; a large part of the middle was quite bad, and I just couldn't continue reading.

    To be honest, I didn't realize it was an infrastructure-building novel at the beginning; the synopsis and pre-VIP chapters didn't even cover infrastructure.

And the antagonist hides his military tally in his hairpin… The antagonist is a prisoner, he's definitely going to be searched, and what prisoner would wear a hairpin from when he was emperor? The story even describes the antagonist as being so bold as to hide the military tally in his hairpin, trying to create the illusion that the most dangerous place is the safest place, while also showcasing his boldness and intelligence, and fitting the plot development (here the antagonist needs to obediently hand over the military tally).

    Curator note

    I liked the tropes and character designs, but I didn't quite understand the plot development and logic. The protagonist (uke) travels twenty years into the future and sees his cat transformed into a human and even a governor. His first reaction is, "It's my cat!" He goes to the police station and tells the officers it's his cat. Here, the uke doesn't seem particularly afraid and even actively seeks out the other protagonist (seme) at the police station. However, after meeting the other protagonist, he keeps saying he'll only stay one night and then leaves, rejecting any contact. It's really strange. When you see the other protagonist as a human, you're not afraid and even want to find him, but after meeting him, you become hesitant and seem very resistant. Even if it's because you overheard the police saying the other protagonist would eat him, it doesn't make sense. Because the other protagonist proves through his actions that he won't eat the uke and treats him very well. And the premise of the police saying a pet eats its owner is that the owner has abused the pet. But when the other protagonist was still a pet, you had a good relationship, and you never abused him. It's not that you can't be afraid—fear is perfectly normal—but you can't be fearless at first and then inexplicably become afraid later. It feels illogical, like the author deliberately created an emotional obstacle. The seme (dominant partner) cares deeply for the uke (submissive partner), but his character is sometimes gentle and sometimes fierce. However, compared to the uke's attitude towards the seme, this is insignificant. This is supposed to be a sweet romance novel, but seeing the uke's inexplicable rejection is annoying and tiresome; I'm tired of this kind of plot and find it exhausting to read.

Why does the protagonist in a top-dominant story also have the other character controlling him?!

    I distinctly remember this author writing mostly top-centric stories, but I feel like top-centric readers won't enjoy this one. I'm a protagonist-obsessed reader, so I read both top-centric and bottom-centric stories, though I usually read more bottom-centric ones because top-centric stories are rare. I've also read a lot of insectoid-themed stories; basically, as long as the protagonist is happy, that's all that matters. In this story, the bottom does have a high status, and the unequal status is quite normal and acceptable, but the top seems somewhat afraid of the bottom, which I don't like. The top seems to be dominating the bottom (at least in terms of status), and I don't like the feeling of the top being inferior to the bottom.

    Overall, it's lighthearted and humorous, quite enjoyable. The seme (dominant partner) is gentle and composed, occasionally giving the uke (submissive partner) a little attention, but his fatherly nature isn't overly strong, which is good. The biggest problem is that the uke falls for the seme very quickly, and because the uke is very direct, he's often rejected when he tries to get close to the seme. The seme initially treats the uke like a younger brother, very gentlemanly, only realizing his feelings for him midway through the story. This isn't great for those who prefer the main character, but overall, I still quite liked it.

The protagonist is fine overall, quite fitting the synopsis. The main issue is the male lead (seme) and plot development; the writing feels a bit weak, overdone. The male lead has a somewhat "hypocritical" feel—not in a derogatory sense, but the word is very apt. The plot and the male lead's character development are a bit lacking, which is a shame.

    While the "cremation scene" plot is classic, the characters' personalities and behavioral logic are really strange. The male lead seems to realize he likes the female lead after she lets go of her past, and after she returns, he intentionally or unintentionally approaches her, but on the surface, he remains calm and collected. It's so contradictory; they want to maintain the male lead's perfect image, yet they also want him to go through a "cremation scene" to win her back. Many books are like this; no matter the situation, the male lead maintains his dignity, rarely truly falling into despair. He's always composed, or rather, he might fail, but he won't be pathetic. Also, after the male lead starts pursuing the female lead, the "white moonlight" (his ex-girlfriend) returns and asks him if they can't have a beginning. The male lead replies, "If I didn't want you to get married, you wouldn't have gotten married in the first place." So what do you mean? Are you saying you don't actually care that much about the "white moonlight," that you don't love her that much? Then weren't your previous actions when you treated the female lead as a substitute quite bizarre? Ultimately, it seems that "cremation scene" novels inherently create this sense of dissonance. They try to maintain the male lead's perfection while simultaneously demanding his "cremation scene," requiring him to have a "white moonlight" (a devoted female lead) to initiate the "cremation scene" while also demanding his unwavering devotion. Ultimately, this leads to the conclusion that the male lead didn't actually love the "white moonlight" that much. Besides this, the plot, writing style, and logic have many strange aspects. Scene changes are frequent and abrupt, and other characters appear unexpectedly, leaving the reader confused about how things developed this way. Only after rereading word by word do you realize the abrupt scene changes and many jarring details. Some plot points are also quite absurd. For example, after the male lead tells the "white moonlight" he doesn't love her anymore, the "white moonlight" happens to see the female lead (it's just that coincidental; characters often suddenly appear in various places), then rushes up and slaps her, who slaps him back. The "white moonlight" is incredibly evil, and inexplicably so; this plot arrangement is quite frustrating. After reading a few more chapters, there are so many things to complain about. The male lead seems so pretentious. Even though he knelt down, he still acts all high and mighty. His tone towards the female lead isn't very nice either (at least he's not fawning or humble). He also does things that the female lead doesn't like. Is this how you pursue someone?

    The plot and characters' decisions became increasingly incomprehensible. I really loved the "sickly beauty" trope of the shou (bottom), especially since he was always ill. He's a heartthrob, incredibly beautiful, but besides the gong (top), he has so many unwanted suitors, lacking the satisfying feeling of being a heartthrob. Seeing those unwanted suitors only evoked disgust and annoyance. Also, the descriptions of the shou and the gong's constitutions felt like the author's nanny-like tendencies had exploded (like a flower market setting?). The gong seems to have fallen for the shou at first sight, and the shou always seemed somewhat reluctant towards the gong, leading to rapid development, but the romantic relationship (from acquaintance to love) lacked any significant ups and downs. Finally, the Buddhist cultivator, a supporting character, was captured by the villain (I think it was the villain, I didn't finish reading) and taken to the River Styx. The villain said he would make the Buddhist cultivator comfort others with his body, which was a deliberate act of humiliation. This was because their sect's previous leader had stayed there to feed the demon, saying he wanted to convert him, but he was now dead. Later, the villain asked if the Buddhist cultivator was his reincarnation, and after realizing it might be, abandoned the idea of humiliating him and simply imprisoned him. I don't know if they'll develop feelings for each other later, or if they had any past hardships, but I'm really tired of this kind of plot. Maybe it's because the Buddhist monk helped the protagonist that I actually like him a bit, and I don't want him to be tortured or hurt. Faced with all this messy romance, can't we at least give him a normal partner? I'm not against side couples at all.

    It didn't offend me in any way, but I was rather indifferent to the plot point of the female lead taking a position in the male lead's palace; I found it a bit boring.

    The male lead really does seem like a psychopath (no offense intended), eccentric, and somewhat capricious and indifferent. He even dressed in women's clothing, wanted to get his ears pierced… He likes to eat fish, competes with the female lead in beauty, makes her call him "uncle," and even tastes the fish when she vomits.
