Going into this book I had no idea what to expect, I was just trying to avoid a slump after rereading Panguan but this book ended up being amazing.
This book is about the MC Jiang Luo who transmigrates into a novel he had read into the cannon fodder side character ALSO named Jiang Luo who kills the shou protagonist, Chi You. Jiang Luo also has the misfortune of transmigrating AFTER his character has already killed Chi You. In the original novel, Jiang Luo is tortured constantly by the ghost of Chi You until eventually Chi You brutally kills him and this is a fate that Jiang Luo desperately wants to avoid. In order to save himself and to have others protect him, he makes up a story about Chi You being in love with him and confessing to him before he died and that he rejected him and didn’t realize he loved Chi You until after Chi You had died 😂 this lie encompasses the entire story and it’s the beginning of an addicting enemies to lovers story. (This is not a spoiler, all of this is mentioned in the summary)
Highly recommend this book! I absolutely adored Chi You, Jiang Luo and the gang from beginning to end!
