Sequel to Breaking Through the Clouds/Po Yun. English title is Swallowing the Seas/Tunhai but Rosmei will be publishing it as The Hunt for the Leviathan. Here’s a link to why they changed the title (I think I like Swallowing the Seas better 😬). https://x.com/rosmeihey/status/185226...

Characters:
Wu Yu, previous undercover agent (MC)- quiet, gentle, well liked, secretive, has a traumatic and mysterious past, cutie pie that easily can kill you
Bu Chonghua, Captain (ML)- initially comes off cold, strict, and aloof BUT when he learns to love, he loves hard 💙supportive, protective, devoted, loyal. Also, rich 💰
**One of the best things about this novel is their relationship development. At the moment I can’t put into words how special what happens between them is.

*🚓 Police Crime/thriller/suspense/mystery
*🚓 slow burn (with very little 🌶️)
*🚓action packed- really just non-stop!
*🚓found family/team/crew- loved the Criminal Investigative Unit!
*🚓plot twists/betrayals/crazy reveals (even in the last chapter)
*🚓one reveal kind of shook me to my core but the author included a note that really helped
*🚓intertwined with Breaking Through the Clouds so definitely do not read this first
*🚓little confusing at times because of the flashbacks without any warning in my translation
*🚓tighter story (slightly easier to follow) than Breaking Through the Clouds

What I loved
💙The way Bu Chonghua was 100% there for Wu Yu and sometimes that meant letting him go ( bu
💙The small things they would do for each other that no one else would see
💙Yan Xie and Jiang Ting!!! Perfect amount of carryover from Po Yun 1. Absolutely do not read this before Breaking Through the Clouds (IMO)

These two novels have unexpectedly found a way into my heart and I recommend them regardless of what genre you prefer.

English title: Swallowing the Seas / Hunt For the Leviathan

From the gripping backstory and countless plot twists, to the extreme suspense, this book was an intense ride from start to finish.

Wu Yu is such a complex character, weighed down by trauma and baggage. His backstory is heartbreakingly sad, and his journey to healing is long and riddled with obstacles. He’s also insanely cool when he fights!

Bu Chonghua has his own tragic past, and their relationship constantly hits stumbling blocks as he struggles with Wu Yu’s secrecy. The dynamics between them evolve continuously, blending longing, despair, sweetness, and the ever-present fear that it’s all fleeting.

The cases themselves aren’t overly complex, but are deeply interlinked. The sheer number of plot twists is overwhelming though. At times, I found myself losing track of who actually did what and why. But I was more interested in the couple’s relationship anyway, and was glad that’s the main focus of the story.

A pleasant surprise was how much Yan Xie and Jiang Ting were involved. This main couple from Breaking Through the Clouds didn't steal the limelight, but provided crucial support at just the right moments.

Let me also mention that there’s some comedy woven into the story, offering readers some much-needed breathing space amidst the suspense and heartbreak. They’re a refreshing contrast, giving you a chance to laugh and decompress before diving back into the intensity.

Sadly, the translation I read was subpar, but I’m thrilled that Rosmei will be publishing an official version. I can’t wait to read it, though I’m bracing myself for the shipping costs!

I absolutely loved this book just as much as Poyun! It’s a solid police story with an intricate plot, well-developed characters, and the perfect balance of action, angst, and romance.

I really enjoyed both protagonists in this story—especially Wuyu (MC), who is a deeply compelling and multifaceted character. Beneath his calm demeanor lies a past shaped by pain and hardship, yet he carries it all with quiet resilience. His journey isn’t just about survival—it’s about healing, rediscovering trust, and allowing himself to hope again. What makes Wuyu so likable is the way he balances strength with vulnerability—you can’t help but root for him.
The ML (Bo Chonghua) is equally fascinating. His relationship with Wuyu becomes a powerful force of mutual growth—he doesn’t just support Wuyu’s healing, he finds a kind of healing himself, as he too carries the weight of a painful past. Their bond is built on trust earned through hardship, and with his unwavering devotion, he’s someone genuinely worthy of Wuyu’s heart.

This is also my third read by Huai Shang, and I have to say, I’m a big fan of her writing—she truly has a gift for crafting such amazing stories that they’re impossible to put down. Highly recommend! I can’t wait to add this series to my shelf once it’s published by Rosmei!

3.5/5 🌟

Unfortunately, I liked this novel less than Poyun. It doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy this, because I certainly did, but maybe the way the plot became so convoluted halfway through the story that I found it a bit less appealing than the prequel.

I always find stories with complex plot fascinating, especially when it was constructed with little to no flaws. The plot twists here really got me if I'm being honest, but it became so apparent to me that the author really tried her best to create more reveals for the sake of providing shocking factors. Which is not bad, especially since the author really did drop some foreshadows, but it got too much for my taste that the plot became so disorganized. I wouldn't even include the inconsistencies of some event from Poyun where Yan Xie and Jiang Ting are involved because the author herself acknowledged that point.

Also, I'm grateful for the translator for her effort in translating this long novel, especially since she did it for free, but the translation is a bit jarring. The use of 'he' and 'she' sometimes interchange, as if I was reading an MTL. Also, if there are sudden flashbacks, it got a bit confusing because there's no indication. I don't know if it's how the author wrote it or it's a translation issue, but it definitely put me out of the story a few times.

Nevertheless, I had a fun ride with this novel. The author still managed to bring me on the edge of my seat. Though I also personally loved the cases more in Poyun but I loved Bu Chonghua and Wu Yu's couple dynamic as much as I loved Yan Xie and Jiang Ting. I'm even glad that I can see both couples here solving cases together.

Maybe I had too much expectation, but I'm kind of disappointed with the novel. If it wasn't for my love for both Bu Chonghua and Wu Yu, I would have given this a lower rating plot wise. I'm actually sad to not love this as much as the first one.

Este libro me dejo loca en muchos sentidos, Huai Shang de verdad construyo el mejor mundo posible.

Voy a ser sincera, al principio, me aburrió un poco y no estaba segura de si me iban a gustar los personajes (porque me enamore de los de poyun so estaba comparando, muy mal), pero después NO SE parecia que todo eso fue a propósito porque los personajes se van desenvolviendo cada vez y te demuestran que tal vez no eran lo que esperabas.

Wu Yu se volvio uno de mis personajes favoritos por su construcción e historia, yo sigo sin creerme todo lo que paso, le quiero dar un abrazo. Y Bu Chonghua me sorprendió como loquita, tenia una imagen muy juiciosa sobre el pero cada capítulo iba cambiando de una forma tremenda, lo amo. Encima, es el mejor hombre románticamente hablando chau

Wow, that was a wild ride!
This novel is definitely more exciting and engaging than Poyun (破云). If it was adapted by the Netflix, that would turn out one hell of the story: there are mysteries and conspiracies, wild plot twists, double double agents, drug overlords and undercover agents, revenge, slowly built romance and true friendship, loyalty and betrayal. A beautiful, touching, sometimes funny and at other times heartbreaking story of a flower that was born in hell, finally blooming under the sun.

淮上不愧是你
个人感觉比破云更虐,情节更紧凑,第二部丝毫不逊于第一部
吴雩真的是史诗级美强惨,没有见过比小鱼人设立的更好的美强惨人物了
再说一遍:不愧是古早原耽界!全是神作!

Truth be told, I've been in a bad danmei slump for the longest time 😅. I've been struggling to actually finish a new one that hasn't got licensed yet, since I don't have as much time as I did when I first read some other favorite danmei novels, the licensing made it easier to reread physically (2ha being the exception, as I had less work when I was reading it), and I usually struggle with reading novels solely online. However, I'm incredibly happy this wasn't the case with Po Yun 2. It's my first modern danmei, and I wasn't expecting to come out of reading this with a new favorite, but here we are 😁🥰.

(I also also had the best time updating on Goodreads with quotes or things that I liked)

Now, on to Po Yun 1!

这篇短记写给我心里新晋美强惨top 1的闪耀雩雩。

林炡曾经说,屠龙的英勇少年最终会变为深渊中的恶龙。

张志兴说,没被扼杀的恶龙会化身为(恶)人。

在林炡和张志兴的世界里,无论吴雩在恶龙与屠龙少年这个故事里是那条恶龙还是屠龙的少年,似乎都是恶的象征。(当然林炡娘家人的地位是稳固的~)

而与林炡和张志兴的态度不同,解行说要把吴雩带回到没有罂粟花开的国土。

步重华则说吴雩是他追随了二十年的火种。

在解行和步重华的世界里,吴雩更像是是地狱之中开出的花,是他们不顾一切甚至付出生命也想带回到地面,阳光下的花。

而作为读者,看完全书后,我真的太喜欢淮上大大对吴雩的塑造了,也真的被刀傻了。(>﹏<) 每个命运的节点都刀小鱼,看着有点极端但谁又知道现实世界里的疾苦不会相似甚至有过之而无不及呢。

吴雩绝非恶人,这点从他小时候放弃唯一逃跑的机会救助步重华,再到早年混迹du枭组织内部时的许多举动都可以看出来。那么吴雩是地狱中的那一株花吗?个人认为,这株花不是脱胎于地狱,反而是在经历了种种事件之后逐渐破土而出,最终盛开在阳光之下。它不来自于地狱。它,就是天地之间一朵肆意生长的独立、自由的花。

之所以说地狱之中并非一开始就能孕育出这株“花”,是因为早年‘地狱’中压根就没有这株花能够生长的充分条件。一个从未见过和平社会的人;一个曾经怀着满满的希望期待有人可以从罂粟花田的另一边来接回自己却最终不得不接受自己被放弃了的人(当然后面解行有解释清楚原因);一个为了生存而需要不断地靠自己拼命挣扎最终成为了du枭组织核心人物保镖的人,这株花要如何天然地在地狱中破土而出呢?

此外,小说里吴雩长久地对于自己出身所感到的自卑以及对周遭人事���极度缺乏信心的描述让我联想到一个说法:说在温室里成长起来的花朵缺乏外面世界的风吹雨打。那么,反过来想,一直在外面经历风吹雨打的植被花卉猛然被带回到一个具备防寒、加温和透光等设施的温室里,它们能适应吗?而当掌控着这个“温室”条件的人里出现很多不���定是否要将这株从蛮荒之地带回的植物留在温室里时,这株植物的命运又将何去何从?

因为解行,阿归(吴雩)回到了“温室”。遇到大花和津海市南城分局刑侦支队的队员们,吴雩渐渐开始对新的“温室”产生了眷恋。但很长一段时间里,这株植物自己都不确定自己属于哪里。他向往暖阳,但也习惯了蛮荒之地的阴暗;他渴望有个属于自己的归处,但也习惯了形单影只的生活。比起鼓起勇气拥抱新的生活,吴雩更加容易逃避和自我质疑。

某种程度上,极致的恶和极致的善都会对人产生巨大的冲击。温室中的花朵未必经受得住外面世界不恒温、不稳定的自然环境,而一直在外面生存的植被也可能会被各方面都设定为‘最佳条件’的温室所扼杀。换句话说,稳定或不稳定的外界环境可以从或积极或消极的方面影响植被,但植被能否生存下去有很大一部分原因在于植被本身的适应力。

而这适应力的培养反映在吴雩这个人物身上则很像是他在小说里不断地纠结、不断地自我质疑又不断地伸出双手拥抱新的希望。这也很像一株植物从深埋地下的种子不断地突破层层土壤与砂石沙粒最终破土而出,成为世间里独一无二、肆意生长的一朵花。

闪耀雩雩最终迎来了真正的新生。不过必须承认,这个过程读起来太让人心痛,刀得我一度觉得我需要换一本大开金手指的爽文缓一缓。但又觉得读得很过瘾。淮上大大对核心人物的塑造以及对不同事件起承转合的描写把握,真的是太赞了。可以掰开了揉碎了地把一个人的成长从年少到成熟,在极致的善恶对比环境下寻找自我与生命价值的意义写出来,又能刺激到读者最原始本能的情绪,这本身就体现了作者的写作功底和对人事物的思考。必须表白!是我大爱的作者啦啦啦啦!!

最后,必须要致敬缉毒警察!致敬所有的无名英雄!!

P.S 吹爆此书同名广播剧!从卡司到后期,一水的高配~本人近两年听过的制作最精良的广播剧~!!

4.6! Las revelaciones estuvieron en su punto, lloré por ese pasado trágico, las venganzas y las oportunidades aprovechadas. La relación entre primos y hermanos jurados son de lo más caótico y delirante que he leído. Hace que extrañe el anterior libro. Xie Xing y A-Gui son de los personajes que me impresionaron, amé el vínculo forjado a través de su madre.

Making my way through this author's works. I'm kind of ambivalent about this one. The best thing about this story is the main couple's relationship because it is very sweet and tender but also really angsty. Everything else I had various issues with.

Huai Shang has an amazing ability to write relatable characters, interesting plots and mindturning twists/cases, while mixing it with exceptional research, which makes every book absolutely a feat to read. Although Poyun somehow sticked to me more, Tunhai I will remember for a long time also.
Huai Shang was my author discovery of this year, and couldn't be more happy for it.
