I think it's safe to say that I'm completely hooked.

I had no idea that this second volume would have a trope I love (
deaging
), but I was squealing with excitement when I got to that part. It's a pretty thick book, and yet I found myself flying through it. I love the characters and the development we got in this installment, with both Mo Ran and Chu Wanning coming to realize things about themselves and their past behavior. I also really loved the side characters—Xue Meng continues to grow on me, and the moments where Chu Wanning acts more as a shizun towards his students made me melt. 

There are so many moments that stood out to me, and I made sure to highlight them all so I can revisit them later. The past timeline continues to fascinate me—I'm still so curious about how Mo Ran and Chu Wanning got to the point where cuddling was happening, but I'm guessing it'll be a while still before I get the answer to that question. I'm not complaining, though.

We do get more glimpses into why Mo Ran is the way he is in this volume (I spent a couple of chapters fuming at his shizun for past injustices). They both still suffer from lack of communication, and there are times when I just want to lock them up somewhere and not let them out again, but for some reason it doesn't bother me the way I would expect it to. There's just something about the romance that has me by the throat, and I can't wait to read more.

The second book didn't quite hold my attention like the first one but I still enjoyed it. There were parts where it was hard for me to pay attention to but there were also parts where I couldn't put the book down. It's been fun following the little mystery that is being laid out! And I'm enjoying the interactions between characters, there was some fun banter between Mo Ran and Shizun in this one!

There were some new characters introduced which I found enjoyable. Even the annoying guy dug his way into my heart. There were some fun tropes in this one that I really enjoyed too! I'm excited to see what happens next!

This is the book where we start getting more of Chu Wanning's POV, which is my favourite. It's also the book where we start getting more glimpses into the 0.5 timeline, which are, for the most part, brutal, so beware the trigger warnings.

I had a good time rereading this book, it was fun! The whole Xia Sini plotline has my whole heart. It was so sweet and sad at the same time. The mystery continues building up quite well too. Mo Ran is getting more self-aware and thus less irritating and we get to see more of Chu Wanning, and he's not even suffering all of the time, what a treat!

Triggers. This one was better. Writting is good and the characters are developing into more interesting people. But I just can’t get over the shit Mo Ran did in his past life to Chu Wanning.
