I reached around chap 500+, purely because I'm a sucker to this kind of genre. Compared to Superstars of Tomorrow and IRAS, this novel is severely lacking. PROS: It's hard to think of one. The story is in between below average and average... hmmm yup there's nothing stunning about this novel. However, if you have nothing to read and waiting for updates then this might do the trick. Also around chapter 300, the MC will go to USA, not really a spoiler, just to tell you guys that it will be more relatable because Western works will be used not just Chinese literatures, films and celebrities that we barely know. CONS: Most cons were stated already. The worst thing for me is the story telling. It's practically reading a log or a diary, most chapters just states what did the MC have done that day. The romance is really bad, it has potential at first but the author botched it. The story has no depth along with the characters. Everyone is so shallow and thought of nothing aside MCs looks. There are few good chapters, most of them were dull and just about the MC eating over and over again. The fact that the MC's eating is more detailed than him doing his job or his lovelife is the most frustrating part of this novel. I finally dropped this novel, I tried it a lot of times but just I'm about to drop it, things get interesting. It's like the walking dead prior to the latest season.

dear everyone, thanks so much for your attention on the story. I couldn't agree with some comments more that the story was "childish". Most readers of its Chinese version are girls in middle school. That may explain why the girls in the story are of a rectilinear thinking style. In my opinion, they are flat on the paper, with only one or two features at most. So, if you want to read a story of mature way of thinking or a story with deep thoughts, you will be disappointed. In fact, it's quite a bucket of pop corn for me in leisure time. The author indeed had studied on certain subjects. If you live in China, you will find some interesting points everywhere, especially in the following chapters. Maybe after one month you could return to the story, I promise you will find something interesting by then. But I can't make the spoiler now. haha! And, some words about the way in which MC ****** money. Young foreigners may have no idea that after 1995 till now, China was the heaven of adventurers. Since MC lived in the era for the second time, it's natural for him to choose certain way to earn money (you may find them in the following chapters). He is only an ordinary man of mechanical deparment, who couldn't remember so many songs or famous articles. Even if he could, considering the protection of copyright in China... When I was translating the work, I was so sorry about the oppotunities to make fortune in the story, for I missed them all! THEY ARE THE REALISTIC WAY TO MAKE MONEY IN CHINA AT THAT TIMES! If I was reborn like MC, I'll do in the same way. It will be the ******st and quickest for ordinary person, who never prepared for his/her rebirth. Anyway, thanks so much for your patience. Readers choose stories and stories choose readers. It's a mutural process. If you give the story up, best wishes for you and looking forward to meeting you in another story. :)

Alright, the score is pretty low, but it's reasonable... I think. anyway. Translation quality is OK, but could be better. the phrasing is quite bad to be honest. If the author wrote it like it's translated, then this must be their debut work, because it feels really... I really don't know how to say it, without ****** people interpret what I've said in a wrongly. but, the ******st analogy? emmm.... Childish, but planned. or is very innocent in a way, but at least the story it self seems to have been planned ahead properly. The MC himself, is quite childish also, or even quite innocent. it's like a man was put in the body of a child, and the childishness seeped in, and erased the *****, but left the memories of the future. Also, things seem to go rather well for this MC, but it's strange. I honestly have no interpretation of why I think this series has a strange flow, but I have this weird feeling as I read it. not a bad feeling mind you. World background... Again, I must say, 'honestly', the world isn't as of yet too far thought out, but the actual 'world' around the character seems to be developing, like, housing market, stocks and so on... oh, and computer development. I wish this MC could think of smart things to do with the internet, it really wouldn't be to hard to make a website worth money around that time, it would just take a bit of development, and financial stability. but, as long as he invented YouTube, he'd be fine. I think it isn't banned in China, so it should be fine... And my final conclusion to my thoughts about this story... Read it if you wanna, It's not the best, but it has some interest elements to it. So if your here for lighthearted rebirth or should we say, revert to an alternate time line, 18 years before, where the MC isn't a genius, but get's a better body and memory right off the bat as a consolation prize, but doesn't know how to truly capitalize on his future knowledge, however, does in fact know how to make Some use of the new body. My last thing to say is: The first chapter is BS, it almost makes no sense except TRYING to explain to you, the MC was all of a sudden, reborn for no apparent reason. Apparently a different, and even better body/memory. However, it doesn't really explain, If he was suddenly reborn, or if he was reborn for quite some time, and this is likely the translator/editors fault for confusing me. and I must point out, that the Author really wanted to get the character out of high-school, but still give the character SOME very minor Introduction and slightly developing the world background. and to finish off what I'm saying... the Story is very fkn high paced, has a very small character development phase, but as I said at the start, I'm pretty sure this is the authors debut piece, or best work at the time of release... if not, then I truly feel sorry for this author, being able to write, but is inadequate in their understanding of the human psyche, emotions, rational and thus creating an inferior product, that is unworthy of their actually writing talents."

Arranged marriage to the princess of the Red Scorpions

NOTE: cover art is a commission done by Ripcorez a fellow author on here and amazing artist. If you like his work, don't hesitate to reach out to him with a request for a commission of your own Samuel Foster would be turning 18 in two weeks. He grew up in a fairly normal low case family home with his parents and two younger siblings. The thing out of the ordinary was he knew for as long as he could remember he would be getting married at 18 to a girl he never had met before due to a promise his family had made. Lena Scarlet, Princess Scarlet was feared by many, respected and loved by everyone near her. Deadly as she was calm, her one annoyance in life was the arranged married he father decided upon before she was born. Being fiercely independent and trained to protect herself, she never felt the need for a relationship or marriage as she fully capable of taking care of all her needs. However, a promise was a promise and whether either of them liked it or not, their parents were at least going to force them to live together before calling the wedding off. Please give the book a chance. I'm not the greatest of synopsis writers, as I am sure some of you can tell and the book may be slow at first due to the setup and lead in. But I promise it will getting more interesting as it goes along. Scene excerpt from the story: "You didn't happen to think it was important to tell before now?! The princess was furious with the other woman. "I.." She paused for a second to swallow, "I never thought that it would come down to this. I promise though that they wouldn't do anything terrible." "They said the same thing to my father.. but they were wrong. I don't trust anyone's word." The princess replied standing up. The more her anger rose, the darker her eyes got. "You should just be fortunate that I am not my father. Do you know what he did when faced with a similar situation?" with no reply, she continued "He killed almost all of them. You could say it was a massacre. Me, I won't got that far, but if anything happens to him, I will personally kill the person who touches him."
