Description

Xu Tangzhou lost his memory. He always dreamed of an unfamiliar Alpha who made his legs go weak, and his dreams caused one to be red in the face. One day, he saw the Alpha he dreamed of on TV. Apparently, the other party was a huge celebrity called Ling Che. Not long after, he debuted and his manager said that he wanted to find someone to guide him. After meeting Ling Che, Xu Tangzhou’s facial expression was indifferent. “Oh.” Xu Tangzhou’s inner thoughts: Ahhhhhhhhhh he’s so hot! Four years ago, Ling Che’s Omega disappeared overnight and thoroughly broke up with him. Four years later, Ling Che had already become the king of the music industry. He met the partner who was newly assigned to him by his company for a business couple. That newcomer was called Xu Tangzhou. The manager smiled obsequiously. “Our Zhou Zhou looks like a cold beauty but beneath the surface, he’s exceptionally pure.” Ling Che coldly laughed. “You want me to guide him? Maybe in the next life.” That night, the cold beauty that was exceptionally pure beneath the surface appeared in front of Ling Che’s room door. He was clean and fresh, and he loosely wore a bathrobe with a wide collar. The next day, the sweetest CP in the history of the entertainment industry was born.

My Thoughts on Asteroid

"Asteroid," with its blend of comedy, drama, romance, and a dash of the ABO universe, certainly took me on a ride. It's a story about second chances, fame, and navigating a world where pheromones and compatibility scores supposedly dictate destiny. While it has its charming moments, some aspects left me feeling a bit conflicted.

First Impressions

The premise immediately grabbed my attention: Xu Tangzhou, an amnesiac Omega, reunites with his Alpha ex-boyfriend, Ling Che, a famous musician. The amnesia trope always has potential for angst and humor, and I was curious to see how "Asteroid" would handle it. The initial chapters were promising, setting up the central conflict and introducing a world where ABO dynamics are more integrated into society.

What Works Well

Many readers, including myself, found the overall tone to be lighthearted and comedic, making it an easy and enjoyable read. I appreciated the glimpses into both Xu Tangzhou's and Ling Che's perspectives, allowing me to empathize with their individual struggles. The side characters added depth to the story, preventing it from solely focusing on the main couple. I particularly enjoyed the natural progression of the plot and the absence of overly dramatic rivalries, which is a refreshing change in the entertainment industry setting.

Areas of Concern

While I found the story generally enjoyable, some elements didn't quite land for me. The "misunderstanding" that fueled much of the conflict felt drawn out, and I agree with some readers who pointed out that better communication could have resolved many issues sooner. Also, the age gap between the main characters in their younger years raised some eyebrows, even though the story primarily focuses on them as adults. Finally, the sudden shift to 100% compatibility felt a bit contrived, undermining the narrative's initial message that compatibility isn't everything.

Final Verdict

Despite its flaws, I found "Asteroid" to be a worthwhile read. It's a sweet and entertaining story with enough humor and romance to keep you engaged. While the plot may be a bit cliché and the characters occasionally make questionable choices, the overall journey is enjoyable. If you're a fan of ABO stories with a lighthearted touch and don't mind a bit of a slow burn, "Asteroid" might just be your cup of tea. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
