Description
To survive in this zombie-ridden, monster-infested apocalypse, the rich rely on technology while the poor rely on mutations. Shen Shanwu, who appears to be 13 years old but is actually 31, is a deceptive mutant. Despite his childlike appearance, his intelligence is not particularly impressive. One day, while walking down the street, he is suddenly forcibly adopted by a young general who appeared out of nowhere. He resisted, but when he looked up, it turned out to be an old acquaintance. The little boy, who could only hide behind him and cry, transformed into the unsmiling, cold, and tough man in front of him. And that expression of seeing a dead beloved is really unsightly… Shen Shanwu: Can you smile? Jing Huan: After Shanwu died, I couldn’t smile anymore. Shen Shanwu: …Who? Who do you think is dead? Much later, Jiang Huan discovers—crying while holding Shen Shanwu’s nameplate, waking up in the middle of the night calling out his name, telling his adopted son how wonderful Shen Shanwu was—all of this… has always been witnessed by Shen Shanwu himself!!! Jiang Huan (raising his gun): Since you have seen my embarrassment, then I can only marry you or kill you. Shen Shanwu: … Shen Shanwu: Marry, marry, marry! I will recruit 800 zombies to carry you home!

My Thoughts on He Lived Like You
"He Lived Like You" promised a unique blend of post-apocalyptic action, sci-fi intrigue, and a sweet romance – and for the most part, it delivered. I dove in expecting a wild ride through a world ravaged by radiation, mutants, and zombies, and I wasn't disappointed. However, like a zombie horde with a limp, the ending stumbled a bit.
First Impressions
The premise immediately grabbed me: a mutant who can change his appearance meets up with a former love interest who believes him to be dead – only the love interest adopts him as a child, not knowing it's him! It's a recipe for comedic misunderstandings and heartwarming moments. The world-building, though not hyper-realistic, was solid enough to keep me invested. The concept of mutants with varying opinions on humans and the subtle political undertones added depth to the story.
What Works Well
The characters are definitely a strong point. The main leads are likable and their interactions are often funny and endearing. I especially enjoyed the slow burn of their past relationship being revealed throughout the story. The author paces the reveals well, keeping you hooked without being frustrating. The side characters, particularly the mutant squad, are also well-developed and add to the overall charm of the novel. The lighthearted tone and lack of unnecessary drama were also refreshing, making it an easy and enjoyable read.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue, and it seems to be a common sentiment, is the ending. It felt rushed and abrupt, leaving several plot threads unresolved. The potential for exploring the relationship between humans and mutants was barely touched upon, and the ending felt more like a mid-point than a satisfying conclusion. I was left wanting more, especially regarding the political landscape and the development of the central relationship. It's a shame because the story had so much potential to delve deeper into these themes.

Final Verdict
Despite the lackluster ending, I still enjoyed "He Lived Like You". It's a fun, quick read with engaging characters and a unique premise. If you're looking for a lighthearted apocalypse story with a sweet romance and don't mind a somewhat open ending, I'd recommend giving it a try. Just be prepared to feel a bit cheated when you reach the last page. I'm giving it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
