Summary:
Xu Youyou rebirthed to when she was 16 years old and chose a path different from her previous life and met Qiao Mu ten years earlier. The youth who had braved the wind and snow protecting her till death — and who had confessed to her.
And she realized, the Qiao Mu ten years earlier and the Qiao Mu she knew were completely different people. He didn’t have his smile that could radiate sunlight, he didn’t have his courage that could penetrate snowstorms, and he certainly didn’t have his perfect eight pack. He was like a short mushroom, quietly growing in the corner’s shadow.
Xu Youyou: If you dare be like this when you confess to me, you are so dead.
Qiao Mu was a teenage Weiqi genius, he loved Weiqi, but because of his shadow of youth was unable to enter the competition arena. And because of the fear, he was unable to become a professional player and could only return to a typical school life.
Until he met Xu Youyou.
A widely known reckless and fearless girl, who was the complete opposite of him. She was good at everything, except things relating to love. Clearly he wasn’t her type, yet she always provoked him. But the biggest joke was himself, he clearly knew everything, yet could not help but fall into the hands of the enemy.
Review:
I just re-read My Husband has Scholar Syndrome from the same author, that's my favorite novel from this author. Then after reading this novel I felt bland. I think the novel has a good pace on the beginning but it seems rushed toward the end. The same with her other works. I'm not sure if it's due to mtl website but a lot of chapters feel like it got cut.
MC rebirth to 16 yo, she died on mt Everest with ML. She knew ML from online then become hiking friend. ML was sunny and handsome. Then when MC is rebirth she moved to ML high school. MC parent was divorced, in first life she followed her father, this time she followed her mother. MC father cheated and have illegitimate daughter 2 years younger than MC. In first life MC throw tantrum and keep provoking the mistress and illegitimate sister. Until her death she is not close to her mother or father.
MC got cold body after her rebirth. She then met ML and got shocked because ML is short and fat. He looks gloomy, very different with ML she knew from first life. She then get close to him. She realize ML like playing Go (chinese chess) but he stopped playing when he was 10 yo.
ML parent also divorced, he live with his grandma. ML follow his mother who forced him playing go in order to take revenge on ML father. ML father is a master Go. So ML parent hope ML can become a master too. He took professional exam when he was 10 yo and failed. The media expose him as failure genius. ML grandma and uncle found out that ML was abused by his mother. ML mother will dunk ML to water because ML father did it to clear his mind. ML got depression and stop playing Go. Then he met MC who has different view, she doesn't care about other feeling. ML then got out of his depression and start playing Go again. Voila he become world champion in the end. From mid to the end, it was about ML competition. Not much about MC. MC just calling or cheer up ML when he is depressed. I think from 3 novels I read, this is the least I like.
