JiYuan woke up to find that he has turned into a big beauty.
System : Our goal is to….
JiYuan (without any expression) : …become a man.

Translator’s synopsis :
This is a story about a man named JiYuan who transmigrated into the body of an icy cold big beauty.
But wait, turns out he’s still a man, just that the original body has been raised as a girl due to some superstitious belief.
On the other hand, there’s a voice in his head called ‘System’ and Jiyuan has been told by ‘System’ that his soul will be destroyed if he didn’t follow the tasks given to him.
Follow JiYuan on his quest to clear his name from a murder charge while trying his best to complete the ‘randomly refreshed’ tasks given by ‘System’.
This was... Ok, I guess. If you have read a lot of other (better) stories in this trope then this story will come across as average. If this is your first time reading this style of story then this will be a decent read.
The story itself was... Well, OK. The MC was rather entertaining since he had to keep up a facade while having a completely different personality inside, and most of the story's entertainment came from him. The ML... was your usual doting-but-cold-to-everyone-else with a tragic past while also being stronger and smarter than everyone else. Unfortunately he didn't have much more depth than that, so he came across as boring. It amused me that the side characters were more interesting than the main couple...
The ML's personality also made the romance boring. When they finally got together I felt nothing, but that might be more due to the writing style - it wasn't particularly evocative, and a lot of things were told rather than shown.
The mystery wasn't too bad, although the villains also lacked depth. The resolution of the conflict was also rather lacking, as after the villain was defeated it never mentioned the aftermath for everyone else.
Translation has some grammar mistakes, but it's understandable and didn't bother me (I'm used to reading MTL).
Great novel and in an easily readable length compared to many other Chinese web-novels. It works really well, in that we get to focus on a smaller cast and a tighter-knit plot (with less sub-plots) than your average CWN. JiYuan is a great protagonist, with one of the least helpful systems of any system novel (maaaybe Shen Qingqiu has it worse? maybe?) and a heartbreaking backstory (poor JiSi, poor JiYuan). Ye Junchi had great character development and an excellent twist. Overall a lot of fun and a very satisfying read.
What a fun story with a bit of a mystery thrown in (though not that much of one). The ending did feel a bit rushed, but I guess the main point of the story was to follow the relationship development between the demon and his love interest. The characters and translator added a great deal of humor to the story.
Esta novela me ha parecido tibia y algo aburrida. No me ha aportado nada nuevo de otras novelas que he leído, nada que me haga decir, guau esto engancha aunque tenga clichés... El misterio no estaba muy mal pero la química de los protagonistas... Demasiado ñoña. Sobretodo para el gong, se enamoró muy rápido y demasiado cursi considerando quién es. Me lo esperaba más... Duro y desconfiado....
(91%) I know since the first chapter, the relationship doesn't look healthy at all. But the trigger warning didn't say anything about nonconsensual intercourse (r*pe) between ml and mc, so I thought let's try it first. Oh how wrong I was....the scene kinda reminds me of that scene from SVSSS. Very uncomfortable. So I decided to drop it.
baca versi Indonesia nya.walaupun ada beberapa pilihan kata yg rasanya kurang pas tapi secara keseluruhan nggak mengganggu jalan cerita. suka sama ceritanya.suka sama lead chara nya.setiap percakapan mereka bisa bikin senyum2 sendiri.jalan ceritanya bagus, ceritanya sweet, actionnya juga menarik.genrenya lebih ke shonen ai kayaknya karena adegan xx nya diperhalus dan diceritakan sekilas aja.
