Short, rich, and handsome, Lin Feiran was always the center of attention. But after transferring schools in his second year of high school, he discovered that his limelight was snatched by his Adonis classmate, Gu Kaifeng.

Lin Feiran was very resentful, and he and Gu Kaifeng became archnemesis (one-sidedly). Although the two lived together, they were like strangers.

When Lin Feiran went back home to attend his grandfather’s funeral, he accidentally inherited the Yin-Yang eyes that had been passed down from generation to generation. After gaining the ability to see ghosts, the timid Lin Feiran discovered that his two-person dormitory was actually a sixteen-person (ghost) room. Every day, he was scared to the point of collapsing.

The more aggravating thing is that because of Gu Kaifeng’s innate body constitution, he possessed an abundant amount of Yang energy. Lin Feiran found out that whenever he touched Gu Kaifeng, Gu Kaifeng’s Yang energy could temporarily disable his Yin-Yang eyes. A light touch would disable it for five minutes, a kiss for an hour, and so on…

Lin Feiran had no choice but to throw himself into his archnemesis’s embrace. This complete reversal in attitude to being intimate with Gu Kaifeng persisted every day from morning till night.

When sleeping, he must squeeze in the same bed as Gu Kaifeng. Going to the toilet? He must drag Gu Kaifeng with him. Homework? It must be done hand-in-hand with Gu Kaifeng… He also had to try his best to persuade the teacher to make him Gu Kaifeng’s deskmate. Every day in class, he would rub Gu Kaifeng’s calf with his foot beneath the desks…

Following the clingy little bastard’s sudden change in personality, the initially shocked Gu Kaifeng gradually became smitten. Every day he would chase Lin Feiran to flirt with him, make crazy confessions, and even routinely push him against the wall and kiss him…

Gu Kaifeng: “Don’t you like me? I like you, so let’s be together.”

Lin Feiran: “I don’t like you! Don’t come over!”

Gu Kaifeng: “……”

Five minutes later, to avoid seeing ghosts, Lin Feiran sneakily came to touch Gu Kaifeng.

Gu Kaifeng turned around, stopping his hand: “After you just rejected me, you come back to flirt with me!?”

Lin Feiran: “Who’s flirting with you! I was careless and touched you; don’t imagine that I like you back.”

Oh, that’s it.

So this wasn't bad. It wasn't great either. The first chapters, which are described in the summary actually dragged the story down. They were slow despite all the spice between the characters.

Once the supernatural stuff took off, it felt like the author was writing a much more animated story. Given that, I would have liked to see the ghost stories in the extras included in the main story and cut down all the slice of life parts.

It's probably me, but I can only read so many scenes of students sitting... more>> in class taking notes, studying, taking tests, playing basketball and graduating. There's only so much that can be done to mix that up.

The four big characters were decently developed. I did feel like the MC's parents were introduced then tossed aside as irrelevant, along with his granddad-who was important to the story and the character.

If you like high school stories, you'll probably enjoy this. If you want more of the supernatural stuff you might look to something not set in high school. <<less

This novel is one of those sweet and fluffy novels that warms our heart and fills our stomach with dog food. It has the cliché misunderstanding trope with a supernatural twist. For a novel under the supernatural genre, this novel isn't that scary and gory. It even makes me think that ghosts are actually cute and god knows how much I laugh at the scene where Lin Feiran's first time seeing a ghosts at his dorm, they are all disco partying, and some ghost was standing on his desk... more>> and all (If it was me, I'd definitely laugh-cry at that moment). The story wasn't complicated and I love Lin Feiran's character development from being a scaredy-cat to casually touching ghost during the summers cuz they are 'cool'. The extras are really fun and the side characters stories are equally sweet and endearing. I mean, there are bittersweet moments but at the end of the day it was all resolved and we get to hope for a happy ending with each of them.

I think I've had fun throughout the whole novel. I also would like to nominate our gongs - Gu Kaifeng and He Hao for Best Boyfriends We All Want and at the end of the novel, I think I also want to be called baby. <<less

The story is fluffy enough. Personally, I liked the extras more than the story itself. I wish the story was spookier. This novel made even ghosts cute. Oh well.

MC is a timid, narcissist boy who starts seeing ghosts after his grandpa's death. So he sticks to ML (who has a ton of yang energy which can suppress the ghosts) even though MC doesn't like ML. ML liked MC at first sight so forgives MC's selfishness. All of ML's family are wife-s*aves. So there. And of course MC is insanely cute.... more>> MC gets better eventually.

My fav part was the monk part when they go mountain-climbing. Poor ML.. Hahaha. The monk's story was so touching.

Overall, its a good story with great translation. But its missing something. <<less

This story literally emits dog food energy. Ah, I was reading this at 10 pm and I had to held in my laughter so not to disturb the neighbors...

They!! Are!! Too!! Cute!!

MC and ML are so compatible and their personalities are really animated. MC is a major tsundere, a coward, but also very passionate. Meanwhile, ML is very shameless, always trying to eat MC's tofu, simply a huge pe*vert. In every chapter, you'll see him making dirty jokes and the sort... but I'm completely okay with that! They tease each... more>> other and it never gets old, it's just... their convo gets more pe*verted towards the end... *cough* not like I hate it *cough*

The romance happens fast but doesn't feel forced. Hm, there's a saying that the line separating love and hate is blurred after all.

Spoiler

Digressing from the main story, BUT!!! I just had to tell this to someone!!! The monk and the girl story at the end of the main story got me crying. SAFJSAFAKJHKJK iT WAS JUST SKJHSKKK IT WAS SO SAD PLEASE BEAR WITH ME. ((crying in unintelligible noises)) That side story unknowingly became a scene-stealer for me. If someone were to make a separate novel based on it, I would definitely read it!!! Reminds me of that one arc from 'How To Die As Heavy Mount Tai' where the monk fell in love with the demon king... man, that was depressing...

It's cute and fluff. The ghosts just hilarious and touching at the same time. But imo, the story get dragged so much, the interaction between MC and ML become repetitive and boring (always the same pattern: ML forcing his way and ML cannot refuse and later enjoy it).

But, it's enjoyable light read.

So far so good.

Perfectly the stereotype BL characters, cant ask for more. Funny, entertaining.

You'll get the feeling 'ah youth....' I'm not old but kinda want to say 'where art thou my youth? XDD

... more>> Totally forgot that they're just 14yo, but it's nice to see the seme isnt that 'cold' as the usual adult seme LOL

All their characters are suitable for 14yo teenager, with lotsa hormons to keep up and confusing identity&character crisis. Thank goodness the author didnt make them adult, coz the uke is just too s*upid to think, this is not a proble here but it's a problem for those reborn cliche story lmao.

I'll review more when it's complete/half way there. <<less

This novel will melt your heart. Heart warming and an easy read. My tear ducts had even loosen in some few chapters.

In the beginning of the story MC and ML did not start out well but later when MC inherited the ancestors ability to see the dead it practically titled his common sense in a huge proportion. Later he learned that his hated rival the ML has a pure yang body that could suppress his yin yang ability, like a man finally seeing an oasis after being trapped in a... more>> desert for a long times, clung to the ML leaving behind his high strung pride.

MC is practically a little Tsundere, he might think himself a fierce Tiger but actually just a little cat waving his soft paws. And ML can’t help but hold him like a pearl in the palm of his hands. Doting on the MC like a good husband. <<less

Dropped towards the end of the first book (so ig a bit before halfway through the story)

Basically the MC get sexually harassed by the ML the entire time. But since he stops before it gets 'too far' (= when the MC starts to cry) I think we're meant to see this as 'wow he really respect him !' Lol no he doesnt. Also got this dynamic that pisses me off where the ML is constantly 'on top' of the MC, always smarter, always correct, always the one to get... more>> the last word, ect... Which is a shame cause they're really cute when the ML isnt being so h**ny, exe : the cat saving scene. But no, he's constantly two justification away from commiting a crime. Well a worse crime, idk if s*xual harrasment from a man to another is taken seriously in China, probably not ? Anyway saying to someone 'so you like being forced ?' is craaazy, may I remind you all that romantic and s*xual attraction is different. No its not cause you're in love with someone that you immediately want to tangle limbs in bed with them, feels like common sense but apparently its not.

And because the ML is so h**ny it really feels like he barely give a f*ck about the MC and just wants him for very shallow reasons. Doesnt really feels like this changes throughout the book either.

The whole ghost thing isnt really adressed until the middle of the book ? Before then its mostly the MC hiding from them and starting the haha misunderstanding that makes ML thinks he's in love with him (and somehow that translate to 'great ! I can do wtv I want with him now.' bruh). Kind of a shame, it was interesting but it clearly was there to be a justification to kickstart the romance and was left in the backseat.

Not for me ill pass, time to sell the book. Also weirdly h**ny...? Which I can ignore but man I dont really want to read detailed description about highschool kids doing the tango

That aside, rosmei books are really high quality and have good translations ! If u wanna buy a physical copy, go there without hesitation <<less

Second reread! It's been a while so I couldn't remember most of it and was even worried that MC would be an irritating flip flopping softie based on the synopsis—but it's really sweet, funny and kind of hot at the same time.

Our sticky rice cake MC is so adorable paired with willing participant soft type black bellied ML makes for a very fun push and pull type romance novel spliced with emotional ghost resolution stories that actually made me tear up.

Yes, it's a little cheesy but it's done well! The... more>> stomach tingles for the romantic part, giggling at the silliness, and some feels at the ghost parts.

The side couple was also very cute. A different dynamic that was funny and had me rooting for them.

A smooth sailing fun read that I enjoyed even on a second read. Definitely still a favourite.

Oh, I only wish the actual smut was more explicit, haha. <<less

After reading this novel, I feel the need to fall in love and experience a sweet romance.

This story was so cute, so romantic, and I feel that in terms of a relationship, it encompassed all the aspects I consider important for a healthy relationship.

They love each other deeply, respect each other deeply, and care for each other deeply. For a BL, I feel this is uncommon because most other romances, even if good, often have many things that seem forced, but this one was extremely smooth.

I really liked this novel.

Read up until the end of the main story. The ML and MC are very cute together, but I found that the story became a bit dull once they got together. Overall, it was a fluffy and funny story. The misunderstanding also made 100% sense and didn't lead to any petty fights between them. If I was the ML, I would also think I am being flirted with. The ML's approach was a bit aggressive for me taste, but I understand why he was receiving mixed messages. My opinion is... more>> just that if someone says they don't want to engage in s*xual behaviour (whether they are your partner or friend) you should respect that.

That's all! Def give it a read if you like the taste of dog food :) <<less

Dang I wish this story is longer. I thought I'm only halfway through but then I realised I'm already near the endㅜㅜ

Overall, the story is good. The execution is also good. It was cute, touching, and lightly ero aaxhshz. The translation is good too. Kudos to them! The interaction with ghosts are well-written.

My favorite interaction was with the old principal. Knowing how he sacrificed himself to protect his students made me cry. The school anniversary scene made me cry so bad. I also like the interaction with little girl and the mother cat. It's so touching! ㅠㅠ

4.25/5*

It has been a while that I read this story. Enjoyable read. Simple setting and simple story, without any drama. And maybe therefore I was sometimes a bit bored. Couple is very cute though.

I was not super interested in the Extras where they helped other ghosts to cross over, because the stories are too simple to keep me engaged. So, I quit reading around chapter 72 orso.

I was very satisfied with the ending to the Main Story, so I didn't read the extras, but I have every intention to come back and reread this story again someday~ It's wholly deserving of its high-rating! The romance is definitely a bit silly, but it's also hilarious and super sweet. The MC inherits his Yin-Yang eyes from his grandfather and discovers pretty quickly that the dorm-mate that he disliked is his own protection from the ghosts. Meanwhile, our self-aware gay, the ML, who has already found the MC to... more>> be physically attractive, is slowly hooked in by the MC's sticky-ness.

The focus of the story is definitely on the romance. The MC starts off believing that he's straight and there's a rivalry relationship ship between him and the MC. This slowly begins to turn with his new ability — which is also explored dutifully, bringing a little spice to the otherwise soft and sticky romance.

Altogether, highly recommended! I didn't read this at first because of the length, which I think is now perfect. And I was also concerned because of the premise? Like I wasn't sure it would be done well. But the author definitely did a good job! Plus, the TL-ers were also great (the TL is available at CG, and the chapters are not password-locked).

CHARACTERS: 9/10

One can say the characters were pretty generic, but the author did add some complexity to the MC and the more important ghosts. Put another way.:. The characters were mostly simple and written to be charming rather than complex! It's a short story (counting only the Main Text) so it makes sense.

Lin Feiran (MC)

The MC is the silly, puppy-like shou type. His desires are very simple, and he acts on them without much restraint. He is definitely a bit of a tsundere, but only when he hasn't completely decided whether or not he likes something.

Gu Kaifeng (ML)

The ML is not your average stoic gong. It seems like it at first, but he's a lot more thick-faced than that. He's also a lot more hen-pecked along the lines... LOLOL! As a self-proclaimed gay, he doesn't hesitate when chasing after the MC, but that's also partly because he misunderstands a big chunk of the MC's silly actions.

ROMANCE: 9.5/10

This romance story is one filled with misunderstandings! Usually, misunderstandings have a tendency to make romance development a bit frustrating, but the author handled it well here and kept the tone light with lots of humor~ I'm also a bit biased, since the dynamic between the MC and ML here is my favorite type. Enemies-to-Lovers. With a doting gong and tsundere shou.

SETTING: 9/10

The Yin-Yang eyes played its role in this story very well. Not only did it drive the MC's growth as a character, but it was also the central force in pushing the main CP together. This is along with all the great ghost stories (there's only a handful but they're all very sweet and meaningful) that was told in between.

PLOT: 8.5/10

This is a relatively simple plot without many ups and downs. Just what I needed, I think. It's uplifting! Definitely good for putting a smile on one's face, though it's simplicity does mean that there's not much excitement. So for those who like drama and angst, it's probably best to wait until you're in the mood for something more chill before reading this novel.

RATING: 4.5/5

I consider this story a must-read! I loved the characters (the Main CP most of all, but also the various ghosts introduced T.T) and I found the premise super intriguing. Definitely worth a second look too! I'll come back to read the extras then. <<less

If you want to read a cute story about only fluff and relationship about between MC and ML it is nice novel. Supernatural setting only there for support romantic plot and doesn’t go deep. But if you want read good supernatural - mystery plot with romance this novel is probably not for you.

It has typical MC and ML. MC is mostly cute, kind, timid, embarrassed while ML is mostly perfect, handsome, dominant, little forceful. Tho they have typical character settings, character personalities are not too disturbing, relationship development is... more>> cute.

There is clear gong/shou type dynamic between ML an MC in the story also ML describes MC as his wife. ML’s friends says sister-in-law.

Sometimes the flow of story can be dull so I can’t say it is binge read book. Overall it is good novel for relaxing and taking break from heavy plots. <<less

It's really cute and fluffy but imo it gets slightly boring at the end

I loved the ghost scenes, they were really funny

Be prepared for a lot of second-hand embarrassment!
Spoiler

Some of the actions of the ML bothered me, e.g. It was annoying that he didn't really understand that the MC didn't want to kiss him

But on the other hand it's not really his fault, since the misunderstanding was really too big

I still enjoyed reading this very much☺ it was fun and there was no annoying dog blood drama ^^

My star rating for this novel is actually a 4.6/5💫

Omg! Master's Sun, anyone???!! Lol!!

But yeah... if anyone have seen the Korean drama, Master's Sun, this novel reminds me of it lol!

... more>> So.... MC (Lin Feiran) can see and hear ghosts. Whenever he touches ML (Gu Kaifeng) the ghosts would disappear. Thus, MC would always stay near ML and touch him lol! This little action of MC makes ML thinks he likes ML. This is where this cute story takes us!

MC is such a sweet cutie. He's so innocent and a scardy cat lol. He becomes stronger and learns to face his "powers, " though.

ML is shameless, handsome and sometimes a bully to cute MC lol. Cute fluffy stuff.

I like their misunderstandings. Though, more chemistry and a stronger interaction between MC and ML would be nice. I wished they solve more ghostly problems. I feel their getting together was a bit rushed. After that, it kind of got boring. But I still really enjoyed this novel. It's a fun read! 👍

Thankyou for the translations!🥰🥰 <<less

Oh my goodness this was adorable. I love that the whole story was pretty much no angst or drama, just smooth sailing and fluffy puppy love. Half romance half tragic ghost stories, I’m surprised that this novel managed to somehow find a balance between these contrasting genres. The ghosts pasts pretty much all had me crying, I’m happy they had good endings. The romance was so frickin’ sweet, almost rotted my teeth out bc the MC and ML were so lovey dovey. MC is a tsundere and vain, two things... more>> I usually hate in a character, but I didn’t think he was too annoying though. He’s more shy at first but true to himself and his feelings so he’s not making trouble for no reason, he’s easy to see through so he’s actually pretty cute imo.

Somehow I feel like I didn’t get enough, I wouldn’t mind reading about the rest of their lives haha. Very nice story, I would love to have this on my bookshelf and wouldn’t mind reading it again so I can see the MC and ML get together again. <<less

Soooo cute. I love the main couple's dynamics and interactions together. Its not as typical as other novels, the characters aren't perfect, and the shou and gong have a really healthy and balanced relationship (they have their own skills they are good at and the gong isn't overpowering). I really didn't expect there to be angsty parts so that really took me off guard (not about main couple tho).
