Don’t let the fertile water flow to an outsider’s field!” Duan Zhi was satisfied and stroked his future nephew’s dog head, “Leave it to me.” … Ji Yuan after a long time: “Tui! Big liar! Bastard!” … Flamboyant green tea Gong with a s*umbag face, but an unexpectedly innocent heart x Cold beauty Shou who looks like a Gaoling flower but is actually soft-hearted.

My Thoughts on You Should Restrain Yourself
"You Should Restrain Yourself" seemed like a promising read, and after diving in, I can definitely see why it has so many fans. It's a sweet romance with a comedic touch, focusing on the relationship between a mature man and a younger, persistent doctor. While I enjoyed the overall experience, I did have a few reservations.
First Impressions
The initial chapters hooked me with the setup. The dynamic between the older shou and the younger gong, complicated by family connections, was interesting. I was curious to see how their relationship would unfold, especially given the age gap and the shou's initial reluctance.
What Works Well
The core of this novel is the devotion of the love interest. The gong's character is well-written, showing a great deal of respect and understanding towards the shou's boundaries. I appreciated how he knew when to push and when to pull back, making his pursuit feel genuine rather than forceful. The comedic undertones added a lightheartedness to the story, preventing it from becoming too heavy or angsty, even when dealing with themes of unrequited love.
Many readers praised the "home feeling" aspect, particularly the inclusion of the nephew. His presence added a layer of warmth and familial love that complemented the central romance nicely.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the story, I found the shou's character to be a bit frustrating at times. His internal conflicts sometimes felt a little cliché. I understand that he's meant to be a disciplined and rational person, but his indecisiveness occasionally bordered on immature, especially considering his age. His reasons for hesitating, such as the age difference, felt like overused tropes in the genre.

Despite some minor frustrations with the shou's character, the overall experience was enjoyable. If you're looking for a romance with a comedic touch and a focus on pure love, this might be right up your alley. I give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
