Description
As the saying goes, if there is a stepmother there will be a stepfather. The year Su Ran turned 20 years old, she was sold by her father to a powerful and influential old man for a project worth 4 billion. The old man was cold, gloomy, and prejudiced; he was habitually silent and treated his words like gold, moreover, he was also ruthless and fierce, making decisions without consulting others. After three years of marriage, her total communication with the other party didn’t even amount to 100 sentences. Moreover, the number of times she had met him could be counted on one hand. The old aunt that took care of her at home continuously persuaded Su Ran how much the mister was handsome before and how good he was in the past. However, she didn’t believe a single sentence of whatever she said. Later, she heard that the old man had an incurable heart disease and couldn’t find a matching donor for organ transplantation, and that he didn’t have much longer to live. Su Ran herself didn’t understand what went wrong in her brain, because on the 40th day of the old man’s hospitalization, she committed su*cide in the big villa where she lived while holding a written consent of “Organ Transplant donor”. This incident shocked the entire network. Everyone was saying how Su Ran didn’t hesitate to sacrifice her life to save her husband. Countless netizens left a message on Su Ran’s social media account that had been idle for three years, such as: “I’m so moved”, “May you rest in peace”, “ I Believe in love again” ……… Nonsense! She just had enough of that kind of life, and she didn’t want to unexpectedly see that nauseating old man again! ——– Opening her eyes again, the scene in front of Su Ran had changed from the ice-cold villa to a vibrant campus. Hold on! The man in front of her looked like he was dressed by his mom yet was so handsome he could incur the wrath of men and gods, but why did he look kind of familiar?!

My Thoughts on Reborn to When the Old Man Was 17
"Reborn to When the Old Man Was 17" presents a fascinating premise: a woman, unhappily married to an older, ill man, gets a second chance at life when she's reborn with her husband as a teenager. The initial concept grabbed my attention, and I dove in eager to see how this unconventional romance would unfold.
First Impressions
The initial chapters set the stage well. We get a glimpse of the FL's unhappy marriage and the circumstances leading to her rebirth. The shift to a school setting, with the ML now a 17-year-old, creates an interesting dynamic. I was immediately curious to see how their relationship would evolve under these vastly different circumstances. The "old man" being only in his 30s during their first marriage is a little funny, but it's a minor detail that didn't detract too much from the overall story.
What Works Well
The core concept of the story is undeniably unique. Reincarnation stories are common, but the twist of being reborn into the past with one's husband as a teenager is a refreshing take. The potential for comedy, drama, and romance is high, and the initial chapters do a decent job of setting up these elements. I particularly enjoyed the slice-of-life aspects of the school setting, which provided a lighthearted contrast to the heavier themes of the FL's past life.
Areas of Concern
My biggest concern stems from the apparent lack of updates. Several readers have pointed out that the story seems to be dropped, with no new chapters in quite some time. This is a significant drawback, as it leaves the story unresolved and its potential unfulfilled. It's disappointing when a promising novel is abandoned, especially when it has such a captivating premise. The reason for the possible abandonment is speculative, but it does make me hesitant to fully invest in the story.

Final Verdict
"Reborn to When the Old Man Was 17" has a compelling and unique premise that initially drew me in. The school life setting and the dynamic between the reborn FL and her teenage husband held a lot of promise. However, the apparent lack of updates and the possibility of the story being dropped significantly dampen my enthusiasm. While the concept is strong, I hesitate to recommend this novel until there's a more consistent release schedule. For now, it remains a story with untapped potential.
