Second Marriage of a Wealthy Old Man

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Meng Yang had done a lot of s*upid and wrong things in his life. Jumping around like a clown, annoying and unpleasant. Only after his tragic death did he know that he was a cannon fodder written in a book who only existed to set off the protagonist shou.

Although he certainly had done things to hate, the protagonist gong and the protagonist shou were not totally innocent. The protagonist gong betrayed him first, then the protagonist shou framed him. So when he was reborn, he decided…

Marry the protagonist gong’s rich father and give the protagonist a few younger brothers to divide the property.

He wanted to be pregnant soon but thinking that the old man was getting older it would be more difficult. But he didn’t expect that the old man was not only strong, he was even more handsome than the protagonist gong. The steady momentum and charm of that mature man was so attractive that a certain person couldn’t close their legs…ahhhh, he accidentally told the truth. He just couldn’t hold his mouth.

Luo Xiu and his ex-wife had been in a business marriage and were divorced for many years. He really did not expect that he would marry a boy so much younger than him, that he would become an extra son to raise.

He just didn’t expect this delicate and tender little guy to be so attractive, making him pamper him and spoil him and eventually take his heart.

MC died tragically, waiting for ML for 15 years stranded in a cave, blind, not knowing that ML is already dead. After death, he realized that he's a cannon fodder in a book. When he's reincarnated, he decided to marry ML who are protag gong's father. While the idea of a blind young man surviving in a cave alone is food for questions, this wn is good enough, I'm ok with ignoring that particular info. Protag gong & shou is such a douche bag, it's weird that any reader would... more>> read such book. The story is good enough for me to ignore plot hole, no need to think hard and just enjoy the read LoL. <<less

(MTLed it after ch70 because I couldn't wait for the translation.)

Nice story without that much plot.

By ch30 the MC's revenge is over. By ch70 ML's revenge is basically over. Past that is fluff slice of life until their first child is 16yo.

The couple falls in love in a nice way. The ML is a good human (good ideals and morals, no obsessive, understand what being a partner and a father means). The MC is a bit talented and smart; even if he wants to get revenge his main... more>> goal is to be happy with his loved one (ML, who he had met in his prior life and fell in love with).

The story isn't dark nor complicated. The drama doesn't happen between the couple but with other family members and people from the past life. But even that isn't too dramatic. The focus is on the couple I would say.

The last chapter is basically a sumarry of a decade of being married which doesn't sit well with me becasue I don't like that way of ending a story. But it isn't a bad ending either.

A nice light-read you enjoy but will probably forget in a year. At most you will remember it as one of the few novels with an actual good main couple without a restrictive and posessive gong. <<less

This story was good in the beginning but I feel it becomes rushed towards the ending.

I liked both the ML and the MC. However

Spoiler

I felt like they were too harsh toward the mother. Even though she didn't try to understand her child and wanted him to always listen to her but that wasn't something unforgivable to the point they threw her out. She’s an old woman how she’s spoused to support herself?! Not to mention she has someone sick. The ML was angry I got it and he has every right to be angry but not like that. Even the MC didn’t help her when he saw how hard she lives. Saying that have nothing to do with them!! Dude it’s not like you don't have enough money or something! Not to mention she feel regret then why not help her or try to fix the ML and his mother's relationship? Even if you don’t want to forgive her that’s your right but letting an old woman lives her life like this when you swimming in money doesn’t make me comfortable.

[collapse]

I don’t know why in most Chinese novels either they worship their parents to the point they made you want to vomit blood and hit them or become so cruel to their parents. There’s nothing in between.

There are things wasn’t explained properly until the end

Spoiler

I didn’t understand how his stepbrother farmed him in his past life. He mentioned a poison but wasn’t he the one who had been poisoned in the first place then Lou sheng throw him in the forest? That’s how the ML first met him after all. How could his stepbrother farm him when he is the victim? Or did he poisoned another person and MC saw him?

I also wanted to know how he became friends with that boy from the car racing in his past life.

If you want something light and easy-to-read without having to think too much or get too invested, this is a good story for you. Like the rice crackers of literature. The author embraces that this is the kind of novel where everything is easy for the main character and things aren't realistic, so if that bothers you it's not a story you should read.

I don't mind that it's unrealistic, but the personalities of the main couple don't interest me all that much. There are also a few little things that... more>> bother me slightly.

Spoiler

The s*x scenes fade to black very quickly, which is fine, but what you do get is full of weird euphemisms and very unappealing dirty talk. Also, later in the story once they have a baby, they repeatedly have s*x right next to the baby, which I find extremely odd and off-putting. Maybe that's just a cultural thing, but even so, waking your sleeping infant by having s*x with him lying next to you on the bed seems like a bad idea.

I have to agree on others that despite the good concept of 'marrying your ex's father for revenge, ' there's really too much questions left unanswered.

Well, I'm at the 65th chapter so I can't say for sure but I'm confused at some points.

  1. There's no logical explanation of MC's ability to get pregnant as a male. Sure it does say that there are also a select few but what's the explanation behind it?
  2. Is the like between MC and ML in their previous life at the beginning stage? Why are there not much vivid descriptions? Because from an outsider's point of view, based on the descriptions, 'like' is a far cry away from 'love' developing into such an obsession.
  3. Some of the world's logic is so vague. There's confusion on the difference of scientific explanation and supernatural phenomenon. It's confusing at times.

to be honest the translation is too plain and captions missing who is saying what... so mostly I had to guess. if translation is bland then story become bland too.

MC become super perfect after rebirth plus loop holes in stories and I didn't feel that much connection between ML and MC so dropping it..

4.5/5 rating (MTL after chapter 60, which was readable)

Really loved this story, despite a few flaws (see point 2 and 3 below) ! The love between MC and ML is so beautiful. ML is so gentle and their interactions are beautifully written. The scenes with the little baby made my ovaries twitch, so cute and fluffy. The baby is not a fleshed out character, but all the things they undertake with the baby are too cute.

MC is totally badass, loves a good fight and totally OP. He deals with... more>> the villains immediately. ML is twice MC's age and is a filthy rich CEO, but thanks to many interactions with friends, he doesn't seem the typical cold and aloof type.

Don't expect clever villains. CP is too rich and too OP, so villains are (too) easily dealt with. Do expect the typical dog blood and face slapping. I enjoyed it. I really like the many non-villain side characters in this story, they were nice and friends of MC and/or ML.

A few things that I wasn't so happy about in the beginning, but glad that author managed to make it enjoyable later on:

1) from the short summary of this novel I thought MC went after ML just to take revenge on his ex-bf. I was looking forward to read how MC was going to seduce this old man! However, in first few chapters you find out that
Spoiler

MC and ML actually fell in love with eachother in previous life. Their lives were both very tragic, so one of the first thing MC does in this life is to save ML's life

[collapse]

2) Fantastical elements that are unrealistic: MC wants to make it in the field of 'aromatherapy'. That is the translation given too it. In this world there are special schools and college to become a famous perfumer/aromatherapist. MC has secret ancient books on how to cure diseases with aromatherapy. It seemed quite far fetched when you read it in the early chapters. Author even received lots of criticism for this world building I guess, as she was venting about it in her author notes. However, after a few more chapters I decided to go with it and I'm glad. This whole perfume/auromatherapy is more a sort of niche of Chinese medicine and less the western sort of aromatherapy. The author managed to make it work for me and after finishing the story I no longer mind that she didn't go with the more usual showbizz world or other popular kind of world building.

3) A fantastical element that was truly over the top was that though this is a modern world story without any cultivation, in his first life MC managed to live for 15 years in an isolated valley completely on his own whilst he was deaf, mute and blind (not a spoiler, in first few chapters this is disclosed) ?!!! He could only smell (and why he was so OP as an aromatherapist). Yeah... I think this was the biggest let down for me in this novel. <<less

Honestly the story itself is probably a 3.5 star at most but the translations adds a big boost for me, so I gave it a generous 5 star to express my happiness at the effort put in to have such good grammar.

The plot itself is pretty linear, no sharp twists or mystery, basically a fluff-piece with a thin outer shell of a face-slapping dog-blood rebirth story.

It’s a smooth ride for the MC with the ML as his backer but the main characters’ personality aren’t annoying as the usual overbearing-CEO-gong and... more>> the rising-from-the-ashes-shou type of setting. They’re actually quite likeable as a harmonious couple without being too lovey-dovey (though of course without a contrast of controversy in the actual plot, the fluff might be bland for the drama-loving reader). <<less

I will give this 3.8 out of 5

To be honest this has a lot of plot holes. Lots of controversies in many events. The end is also quite rushed and felt weird and incomplete.

Plot holes

... more>>
Spoiler

Their are way too many plot holes here. Like MY' family they pretty much disappear. The story doesn't fully describe his past life linearly. Like at random they talk about it.

Um he is OP but lot of events about his past feel kind of out of place like his friendship with Xiao Ke.

Then the original Protagonists they really let their end pretty loose. After CS was hospitalized and JY visited they never said what happened to them we can only guess. Their is a lot more here and their like that.

[collapse]

The ending was way too rushed like Wuuuutttt....

I was so confused

Spoiler

I felt that MY should have talked about his past life but that's just my opinion, after all it's his opinion to show his scars. I have a feeling that the strange Dream LX had in the valley was about it.

The Zhao Yi just up ended like that. What happened to the picture, did he do anything and what happened after was just left hanging...

The main story just abruptly ended and their was that extra about the kids and family.

I felt that they should have 1 or 2 more chapter to explain and tie all loose ends for everyone and all events. But too bad.

I wish the author would come back and write an extra for Cesly and another for Kai and their individual stores, cuz' I think they deserved it.

Hmm... Maybe I write a Fanfic for them in the future.

[collapse]

Overall the story was not too bad. It had a lot of potential and I really liked the beginning as it started out but it kind of lost its flavor by the end.

But it was sweet and fluffy to max.

Spoiler

One sentence that kept repeating at the beginning really annoyed me, don't know why but it just did.

Since he was reborn "his brain was much bigger/better (?) " So he learned much faster/better/more (?) Or something like that. (눈‸눈) ¯_ಠ_ಠ_/¯

Like Wuuuutttt!!!!!???!!!!!

Waiting for translator to translate more chapters.

This is flufly kind of Novel if you focus more on MC and ML. You will not be disappointed.

Main characters interaction is what hocked me to keep reading.

I just love ML's way of fully trust MC.

Cute, but all female characters except MC's mom are depicted as one-dimensional schemers. A mild story where you won't feel too much anguish.

it's actually a pretty nice story but it just needs more plot and I feel like it should tell a bit more of the MC's specialty. So far it's pretty smooth and that's the main problem I guess, it needs more conflicts. The story feels too rushed. But it's still kinda satisfying.

Spoiler

i think the story would be better if MC tell the ML about the previous life and it would also be better if the enemy 's scheme against the MC succeed once or twice / few times because it lacks those feeling like wanting to say 'Ha! Sike!' to the enemy but the enemy just got defeated too early, before the scheme even started. They're too weak.

I like as of yet, a few little op things that I don't care for
Spoiler

Blind, deaf and dumb person, who was a spoiled rich brat, living in a cave all by themselves for 15 YEARS eating plants and avoiding/fighting off predators, venomous bugs and snakes while waiting for their crippled love to find them? Un huh?

Aside from that I am enjoying the MC's heart flutters as he tries to get the ML's love, too cute.

Very short read, MC achieved everything without doing much in one chapter, all these cannon fodder villains are just sorted out very easily. MC and his family lived happily ever after.

I don't hate this novel, just there isn't much to talk about. MC's just so op and the novel is just written without care like you can take 8 showers a night.

The MC is... very OP, lol. Even the translator and editor comment on how many things he's learned well in the little bit of time before he reincarnated.

The mpreg is... just casually mentioned? Like it was never mentioned as a world setting, but
Spoiler

when MC says "I want to have your child", there's absolutely no protests from ML or thinking it's weird--which means it is a world setting, I guess?

[collapse]

So far it's just cute fluff with a little face-slapping mixed in.

I dont like the ML and the MC. MC is childish and ML is a s*umbag father. He's technically not the biological father of the ex bf but in paper and in name, he is. And yet, he treated the ex bf like that. No wonder he grew up crooked.

First, I liked the romance between the two leads. It was heartfelt and didn't cool off even after more than fifteen years.

Second, the characters in the book were very well-created. They weren't overly complex but imbued with a lot of realism. I also liked that the quacks of each character weren't smoothened to tie everything into a beautiful little bow.

All in all, this book is worth reading and rereading.
