After The Apocalypse, I Was Saved By My Ex-Boyfriend

Cui Xisheng had chased Meng Jiangtian for three years, sharing the most intimate moments for just as long. He thought they had been in a relationship for three years.

But on the day Meng Jiangtian’s white moonlight ex-girlfriend returned from abroad, he left without hesitation. That was when Cui Xisheng realized he had only ever been a “regular friend” whom Meng Jiangtian called upon at will.

Heartbroken, Cui Xisheng ate three large bowls of food in one go, only to end up vomiting so badly that he was rushed to the hospital.

When the doctor congratulated him on being one month pregnant, Cui Xisheng nearly got into a fight with them. After all, he was a man—a pure-blooded man.

Yet, as someone who studied traditional Chinese medicine, Cui Xisheng ran multiple self-checks, all of which confirmed the impossible: he was indeed pregnant.

There was only one possible father—Meng Jiangtian. But Cui Xisheng chose not to tell him. Who needed whom, anyway?

That belief was shattered a month later when the apocalypse suddenly struck. As an ordinary person without awakened abilities, survival became nearly impossible for Cui Xisheng.

When he was on the verge of being bitten by a zombie, he instinctively shielded his two-month-old belly.

But the expected pain never came. When Cui Xisheng opened his eyes, he found himself staring at Meng Jiangtian’s cold, indifferent face once again.

At that moment, he wasn’t sure whether to feel relieved or devastated.

Rain in the sunny morning
I have a lot to say about this novel and I'm only on chapter 54/190ish

I'll start off with the good things:

-short chapters, easy to read 50 in a sitting

... more>> Now let's head to the bad things!!

MC (Cui XiSheng) :

-Not much going for himself

-Average, not really likeable, not really hateable

-Kinda spineless!! He was in a friends with benefits type of relationship with the ML then got heartbroken cuz the ML saw him as nothing but that.

-Atleast he wasn't s*upid overally s*upid. For instance: He knows he can't share food with like 100 people when it's scarce and recognises when people are going to 'sell' him out.

-Sleeping most of the time so far

ML (what ever his name is)

-He agreed to date a girl (who's lowkey b*tchy and coerced him into it) for like 2 years although he only saw her as a sister. His whole reason is kinda sham but understandable.. It still makes him a s*umbag as the only reason he agreed to date her was to hide the fact he and MC are gay as it could ruin their future.

-Why's he lowkey a cannibal. I read it through MTL so it's give or take but every description made it sound like he's a cannibal.

-He's also merciless and enjoys (?) watching people starve/become desperate due to starvation. I guess he likes them beg while he's in control?? Like having a tank full of precious food in front of starving people and not letting them eat is kind of wildddd. ML's not obligated to give (other students) them anything but still wow.

GF (Liu something)

-White Lotus who's lacking severely in braincells

-I think she like begged or coerced the ML into dating her?

-b*tch

update: ML would definitely vote for s*avery again and violate every human rights there is 😭😭🙏 <<less

I finished this with MTL.

It's an okay story. The story telling is okay, but plot development needed a lot of work. The story reads fine and it's enjoyable, but sometimes I felt like that author didn't know where to take the story. I kind of feel like a lot happened while, simultaneously, nothing happened at all.

World building wise... I feel like the author depended a lot on readers knowing this common (chinese specific) apocalypse troupe rather than building the world themselves.

Another thing, as someone mentioned, the MC (bottom) was not... more>> the main character. The ML (top) was like 90% of the narrative. Even then, it's baffling how little screen time MC (bottom) had (i shouldn't even be calling him MC but a lot of people refer the MC as bottom for some reason).

The story starts with MC (bottom) finding out he's pregnant. He broke up with his ex (the ML/top) like 2 months prior. They were dating for 3 years and all of a sudden his man wanted to breakup, and said they were only friends with benefits (so the other reviewer here is incorrect. they were actually dating and not friends with benefits. MC is right to be angry). As MC (bottom) just got settled into a hospital for his pregnancy (he took a leave in school), the apocalypse broke out. ML (top) saved him and picked him up from the hospital.

There's talk about this roof arc and yes, after this roof arc the story focuses a lot on the ML's narrative. It becomes less about the apocalypse (or even the shift in society due to it) and more about ML's (top) story in getting stronger. Because he needs to protect the MC (bottom) who can't protect himself.

But the thing is, there isn't anyone who can challenge the ML. It's just that ML never has the time to strengthen himself because people always come by to make trouble. So it's just a lot of frustration from people who just don't know how to quit until they die. If you're into that, then yea, a story for you.

My biggest frustration when reading this:

Spoiler

The ML (top) is the most infuriating character in my opinion. Like, if he just communicated, a lot of the sh*t that happened would've been fine. He never explained why he broke up with the MC (bottom) until... f*ck, I don't even remember when. It honestly might've been when they got to the first base. Either way, it was so long into the story, MC (bottom) was so insecure at the point. And the ML says that he never said anything because he liked watching him be jealous.

He broke up with MC (bottom) because I think one of their school counselors/advisors found out. And they're both studying to be doctors, so it's this really prestigious (uptight) profession in China. So like, it's understandable why he chose break up with him as to not hurt both of them and their careers. But he didn't say the real reason because he didn't believe MC (bottom) could continue going to school (or something like that) after knowing that someone else knows.

But the decision to f*ck up the MC (bottom) by saying that they were only s*x friends, and that he had a girlfriend (Liu Anna, a childhood friend he was using/taking advantage of)... is a little f*cked up.

Beyond that, ML (top) always notices shit, like with the fire dude from the rooftop arc, but never f*cking checks in with the MC. Which led to MC being pinned down, almost sexually assaulted. (like MC (bottom) never brought up how creepy this fire dude was to you because you lied to him and never told him the truth about the breakup, so he doesn't trust you. but you see him trying to hide from the fire dude and do exactly nothing about it)

Or even towards the end, this motherf*cker comes back from a task/mission after finding out that his childhood friend (Liu Anna's big brother) wanted to kill him so that he can take the MC (bottom) for himself. He didn't tell anyone that there was a hit out for him even after finding out this friend keeps coming around with food (and "saving" MC (bottom) and MC's mom). Oh, but he decides to leave them all alone again to go power himself up. Only for them to be bullied, because everyone besides them believed that ML (top) died in the previous outbreak. MC (bottom) didn't want the friend's things or the relationship with the friend, so this friend decides to turn off their power and water. Send people over to hurt them and abort their child.

Like, mother f*cking ML, say something. Because MC is so confused since he thought the friend was a nice guy.

If this mother f*cker actually communicated, this story would only be half of what it is.

[collapse]

Another thing about this guy:

Spoiler

Oh my f*cking god, can this ML (top) kill these f*cking clowns? Why does he keep letting this f*ckers live? He was so overpowered and yet he let these bastards live until they died by themselves or he finally killed them out of frustration. During the rooftop arc, he killed the space user without any qualms (and then took his ability) because he was afraid that the bastard would come back with a grudge against the MC (bottom). But then after that, he kept letting more and more f*ckers live. After finally killing the childhood friend (Liu Anna's brother. they were more like just neighbors), ML let the bastard's family intimidate him. Like... I would've been like, ya'll better stop unless you want an accident like your son had. But no, he gave them money (for taking care of his parents. but he already gave them money for that). And he made them sign a contract to never bring up payment or marriage with their daughter (Lui Anna) again.

Like dude, just f*cking kill them. You killed their son, so who f*cking cares at this point? In reality, I would've killed Liu Anna at the rooftop arc. She was so annoying. Like childhood friends or not, if you trying to act like this without offering anything, just die.

This ML (top) be practicing selective ruthlessness, and I just wanted him to be ruthless to the end. Some parts of him are f*cked up and then others... you wonder if he's even the same character.

Also, he should've just stabbed his dad into obedience. He had healing power, so the man wouldn't had died anyways. The dad was so annoying.

[collapse]

I have a lot of complaints but I enjoy a coquettish MC (bottom). It was cute. He had nothing else going for him because he literally ceased to exist in the author's mind, apparently. And also, I loved the pets. They are so funny and cute. Honestly, the lack of actual characters was probably because they were replaced with animals. The story should've developed where they could actually communicate, because ML was struggling to coordinate with them.

Last thing:

Spoiler

MC is pregnant during the whole story. In the end, there's quick time skip (4 months) for the birth and then, quickly, another one (6 months) for the ending. There is no childcare element in this story.

And a lot of characters are just forgotten and not even mourned. Like what the f*ck happened to the MC's (bottom) roommates? They vanished.

[collapse]

This has a 4 star for me because of the power of a cat and a ferret. Animals be cute. Especially animals that get their own screen time. If you're not into that, then don't read this story. Even the ending was a little abrupt. Again, I don't think the author knew where they were going with this story, but it was fun while it lasted. <<less

Riddled with inconsistencies, plot holes, and shaky logic. The only thing this novel had going for it was that it’s an easy read and that it had an interesting premise.

Execution failed to live up to its premise though.

Another reviewer already mentioned most of everything, and I mostly agree with their observations. I just wanted to add a few things too:

  • After the characters left the rooftop, MC (Shou) was no longer the MC but an accessory the ML has tied to him and ML (Gong) has now become the new MC
  • Characters becomes more and more brainless as it goes on.
  • ML is extremely overpowered that he could breeze through any struggle and problem via sheer force and author granted golden finger
  • After the rooftop, it felt like it became one of those novels with male protagonists levelling up, meeting beauties in different bases, and surpassing their problems with little to no effort.

Meng Jiangtian (gong) x Cui Xisheng (shou)

A novel about apocalypse but you will forget about that because of all the headache you will feel with all the characters.

Anyway, what a ridiculous and irritating sh*t. At first Cui Xisheng was the MC, but from chapter 40 onwards he practically has no more narration and becomes the "little white rabbit" because ... more>>
Spoiler

ALL THE MEN fall in love instantly.

[collapse]
This may be a skill, it may even have an explanation, but what a bizarre and disgusting mess this author did here.

Meng Jiangtian is even worse, he is a grown man with a golden finger who "doesn't know what he did wrong" and the worst? MC is totally dependent on him (because he has no powers, is pregnant and apparently after chapter 60 becomes a cute little white rabbit).

I hardly ever get angry with any reading, but this one manages to hit all my weak points.
Spoiler

It's like a 1v1 harem, cause everyone wants Cui Xisheng. The protagonist at first has a sharp tongue, but later he is just a cute little angel who needs to be protected (ALL THE MEN want that).

[collapse]

At some point, I even considered Meng Jiangtian's childhood friend to be the least annoying of the bunch, despite being the damn stereotype of a dumb, spoiled, "white lotus" woman.

Damn Meng Jiangtian broke up with Cui Xisheng, but what a horrible way to do it
Spoiler

and then pretend like nothing happened, on top of using his "dear" childhood friend (two bastards, but he still used her anyway).

[collapse]

I lasted until chapter 76. By chapter 40 I was already rolling my eyes in anger, but the chapters are pretty short, so it was easy to read. I don't recommend reading it, it's full of hateful characters, I wanted them all to disappear and I was still just rooting for MC's well-being because he's surrounded by disgusting and irritating people. <<less

Dont waste your time honestly that ML/MC Meng is dumb af, nothing redeeming about him and I had to stop reading because of his s*upidity despite being the top of his class. Cuz I see this pattern of a flag being obviously left alone just so it can spring out and be another drama. Honestly, rather than a BL this is more like those shounen straight harem but instead of the "main wife" its Cui. Like, rather than cheering for them to be together, I just want Cui to either... more>> leave and not be so dependent on Meng, like this poor guy just wants to live and move on with his baby and now he's being "protected" by this idiot. IDK everything just felt so shallow where I stopped at. Its like their intelligence degraded, anyways most disliked is that Meng guy. Like, I didn't mind him at first cuz I felt like an ML with a personality like this feels unique especially in the apocalyptic setting but I just can't continue when he's just becomes more brawn and less brain now. Also, his reason for breaking up with Cuiz really didnt make me empathize with him. Something about him I dont like and his degraded intelligence just makes me stop wanting to read this. <<less

I wouldn't read this again in my life. I only gave 1 more star because it was easy to read and super short

I can write better myself, it shows that it was really just random jumbling as the author wrote it with no planning.

MC did nothing the whole novel but get fed by ML. I think ML is the MC because MC really did nothing the whole nothing but Sit/puke/eat/being jealous and repeat.

... more>> Cannon fodders have IQ of minus 3000, all of them does things without thinking.

Also does it make sense for it to be so homophobic, you can't graduate because if they found out you're in a gay relationship? ML whole excuses and plan doesn't make sense and seems ridiculous. Even one person find out they can just deny it why all the hassle? Also even though that girl was annoying and dumb but using her feelings seems kinda f*cked up.

Also does it make sense to leave your ordinary human lover who seems ill alone for days without coming back, when there's hundreds people there who have bad intentions, utterly s*upid

Some characters have no follows up, like the first group they met in the first base, never see them again.

All the women in this novel are super s**tty, like stop that making women look bad.

Homophobic, sexists, random plot that doesn't make sense, boring daily life chapters with no purpose. Novel have no goal in mind. Don't read this <<less

Was okay I like it overall. But some thing can b really REALLY annoying. Author seem cant decide whether to make xisheng or meng jiantian as MC in the end I think its meng jiantian the MC. And then author can't decide whether he is good or evil, in the beginning his character is rlly tough n a bit cruel but eh mid n late chapter he smhow bcome this pushover tht everyone can trick n honestly I think he only won n save his life bcause he's strong. Honestly... more>> I feel he's dumb n a lot of the problem he created it himself. Well half by him n half by their baby power.
Spoiler

But yeah for example if he kill the female zombie early the latter problem of zombie siege wont happen. In the beginning he's so decisive killing whatever potential enemy but suddenly he keep letting stuff bcome a timing bomb.

Ending is rush didnt mention whatever happen to his farm to his baby or the pets or the normal ppl livelihoods just end like that. The worst type of ending for me. They have the old man who can purify virus but I guess it just goin nowhere with tht plot. Same with so many characters when they appear so much but then suddenly forgotten. Like tht student president or tht other pregnant guy or that kid who looks alike xisheng.

Ending didn't mention if their base gonna b strong or super safe. No potential hint how the apocalypse gonna end either. Just suddenly ppl c their baby in tv n all rushing to find men who cn get pregnant =_= and don't even explain baby superpower. Even baby name is just Lele sound so bad.


And still on political struggle between MJT n the base leader even towards the end. Seriously if u r tht strong like author said he's lvl 9 why take so much bullsh*t from ppl. In an era where ppl worship the strong its unrealistic someone who initially so cruel suddenly bcome pushover listening to order so much its annoying. When ppl still lvl2 average n the leader mybe lvl4 he's lvl9 already but still he hve to suck up to ppl geezz..

Welp end of rant. Everything else about this I like. I love how the villain died. I love how xisheng doesnt take sh*t from his in law n stand his ground. I love the pets story dynamic. Concept is there but in the end I think its this author who's lazy to elaborate his writing.

[collapse]

Don't look at the huge chapter number 199, I finish this in 2 nights!! While the other day the novel I read only 150 chap or smthng but took me almost 2 week. Thats how short this novel chapter is in comparison. So much potential but wasted.

Its 4 star from me bcause I rlly like the apocalypse genre. Bcome 5 can't change it I dunno. And this is not that bad a gud short read.

But yeah if u expect an epic fight between superpower n zombies, dont bother. There's none. Author too busy on the drama of real wife n mistress n love rival keep making problem. <<less

Firts of all, I want to thank you for some comment for this novel. Cause, I feel uneasy for ML in c36. Like what?!. I still read this novel like for c36, because I still waiting for ML get punished. But I afraid the ML will become dissopented humen being. So before I continue reading, I read

some comments. AND BAM, I feel same feeling for some comment so... I kinda angry for ML.

Because from this title its kinda rare and I think this novel will become husband comeback to his... more>> wife or etc

Spoiler

You know guys, ML literly make MC like "mistress". I shock from c1 for real. And the next chapter the ML looks like taking care for MC. But still... "HE IS CHEATING".

For second thougt I like "when the Second ML save our MC for this scum". Because its 3 YEARS.

MAYBE, he is someone who lived between people like "that" so his mind not in right mind. But still bruh if you reallly love him just SAY IT AND EXPLAIN YOUR SELF but if he do it from first time he with MC. "IF HE IS REAL LOVE MC"

So I still not sure the reason he break up with MC and not APOLIGIZE for lying to MC for 3 YEARS.

[collapse]

So for me :) THE ML NOT LOVED MC FOR HIS WHOLE HEART. ITS JUST DAMN OBSESSION AND EGOISTIC MIND OF HIS. (Sorry just my opinion and I kinda not continue reading maybe) <<less
