Description

Li Heng had a dream. In the dream, he was taken back by his wealthy biological parents, and he had two older brothers. However, neither his parents nor his brothers liked him. They despised him, thinking he was unpresentable, yet they showered the fake young master they adopted with all their love. The fake young master was deceitful and sinister, pretending to be kind to him on the surface, while secretly slandering him to others and framing him in various ways. Eventually, due to the fake young master’s schemes, he was kicked out of the house, blacklisted online, and died in a daily rental room at a construction site. The day after he had this dream, a luxury car stopped in front of the house he was renting. Li Heng: !!! Brought back to the family, he officially met the sinister and malicious fake young master, Xie Duzhi. Xie Duzhi pulled him aside. This was the scene from the beginning of the dream, where Xie Duzhi was “pushed down” by him, just in time to be seen by the butler! Li Heng’s pupils shrank. However, not only did Xie Duzhi not fall, but he also threw a black card at him. He told him to spend it all in three days. Did I get the wrong script? Just after being recognized by the Xie family— Li Heng (relieved): So this is what kind of parents and brothers you are. After some time being with the Xie family— Li Heng (conflicted): So this is what kind of person you are, Xie Duzhi. Xie Duzhi: …… Obedient and earnest, thinks he’s hated by everyone, but is actually the beloved real young master who charms everyone (bottom) x Cold and two-faced, accidentally breaks the original script, adheres strictly to traditional male virtues (top). the top has transmigrated, the bottom is a bit insecure at the start, and there’s no blood relation or ethical conflict between them, they were already off the same household registry when they met (important). A daily dose of cute, sweet fluff; the story is mainly focused on familial love in the early stages. The parents, brothers, and top are all lovable. It’s a story of a bottom who thinks he’s the despised character in an angst novel but is actually the beloved and doted-on protagonist in a sweet, pampered one. The bottom has a tiny bit of a charm-the-crowd attribute. The fake young master from the dream also likes him^ ^ **Note:** The fake young master in the dream (aka Bai Ruan) is physically and mentally ill and a bit of a psychopath.

My Thoughts on The Real Young Master Thought He Was Hated by Everyone

This novel, "The Real Young Master Thought He Was Hated by Everyone," certainly took me on a bit of a rollercoaster. It's a blend of heartwarming family dynamics, a dash of romance, and a hefty dose of drama, but not all the elements meshed perfectly for me.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the promise of a sweet, familial story. The idea of a young master returning to a family he believes hates him, only to find doting parents and siblings, sounded like the perfect comfort read. And for a while, it was!

What Works Well

The familial love is definitely the strongest aspect of this novel. I particularly enjoyed the interactions between the main character (MC) and his brothers, especially the second brother. Their banter and growing bond were genuinely fun to read. The author does a good job of portraying the Xie family as genuinely caring, which makes the mystery of why they supposedly mistreated the MC in his past life all the more intriguing. The slice-of-life elements are also well-executed, providing a light and enjoyable backdrop to the more dramatic plot points. I also appreciated the inclusion of animals and the enjoyable side plots involving friends.

Areas of Concern

However, as the story progressed, I found myself increasingly frustrated with the main character. While I can appreciate an insecure protagonist, the MC's lack of common sense bordered on infuriating at times. It felt like his thought processes were overly simplistic, making it difficult to connect with him on a deeper level. This became especially problematic when dealing with the "villain" and the overarching plot. I felt there was a disconnect between the character's internal monologue and his actions, leading to some frustrating and predictable scenarios. The romance, while present, didn't particularly stand out to me either.

Final Verdict

Overall, "The Real Young Master Thought He Was Hated by Everyone" has its charms, particularly in its portrayal of familial love and slice-of-life moments. However, the frustratingly dense protagonist and somewhat predictable plot prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a lighthearted read with a focus on family dynamics and can overlook the MC's shortcomings, this might be worth a try. Otherwise, proceed with caution.
