Naomi Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 i finally have time to read this and went in one go to chap 75. some spoilers and thoughts so far: basically, these two characters are involved in a torturous relationship that started from sweet first love in their teens, to painful love in their 20s, to vengeful love in their 40s at my current chapter. and it seems likely that they will continue to torture each other into their 80s as i keep reading :/ i already know of the author's nickname "stepmother of ukes" bc she loves making the ukes suffer under the mental torture skills of her semes (check out uncontrolled love for further examples lol...). but uh, i was not ready for lu feng. at the age of 18 he made moves on 14 yo yichen (we later find that he has actually liked yichen since yichen was 11...lord). yichen suffers through all sorts of manipulation, violence, possessiveness, temper explosion that only seems to get worse as lu feng ages, but they still cant let go of each other bc of that first love...their relationship is a massive trainwreck that you cant look away from lol i am wondering how the film is going to water down lu feng (they changed the ages which is necessary bc who is gonna let that shit go down on screen...). from the pictures, i thought lu feng's actor looks more kind and calm, but then i heard the author said on her weibo that she watched one of his scenes and even she had to admitted its "perverted", so i'm really looking forward to his performance lol Omg this is intense...finger lickin'. My body is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sybil2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I think is based on the novel Force Majeure by Lan Lin :leaf15: No, it is its own novel, 双程之归途, but it is by the same author and shares some of the same characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybil2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 actually they are from another movie called Uncontrollable Love, different movies. Uncontrollable Love (aka Force Majeure) is about the younger generation. Round Trip to Love (aka Long Way Home) is the back story about the older generation. All the characters relate to each other in Lan Lin's universe. She is like the Anthony Trollope of BL ( if you are into British Lit ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenniquack Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Bloody frigging hell, this was a rollercoaster ride of the nailbiting, pillowwetting, teethgrinding, screensmashing variety. I've somehow finished reading the complete Vietnamese translation of this series. Of course, just our luck....it's NOT OVER!! There's an offshoot novel and sequel. More torture awaits. Hoorahh!!! Lesson I've learnt from reading this: author is sadistic I am masochistic life's a b1tch for stupid b1tches who fall in stupid love with sadistic b1tches I need to not read on wattpad app because it's too convenient and it makes it hard to stop reading even though I really wanted to stop because some moments I just couldn't stand the sheer stupidity!!! This series is super triggery...and frigging addictive. Includes but not limited to: cute moments, sweet moments, funny moments, eyerolling moments, tearjerkers, super possessive seme, like SUPER POSSESSIVE SEME, brother complex, homophobia, Cinderella issues, torture, rape, incest, loveblindness, makjang, oh the makjang, underage, unsensible life choices, death, enduring love, health issues, drama, melodrama, soap opera, of the Asian culture variety, lovable characters, often times being detestable characters, possessiveness, torture, rape, lovemaking, complicated feelings, incest, stupid people, epic love story, time skips, decades, possessiveness, rape, torture, sheer stupidity, loveblindness...and yes some things are repeated because they keep repeating in the series in that excruciating lessons never learned repeating circle of life kinda way....a round round trip to true love. In all honesty, one's either gonna really love or really hate it or have a love/hate complicated thing going on with it. I fall in the third category.

I completely agree though, I have most of the novels of the author saved in my hard drive for years and I just couldn't finish this one because it's just soooooo...what you said.

jenniquack Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 To be fair, despite my rant I finished this series in less than three days. There's something rather...organic about these characters. Despite making the stupidest of choices, they're not dumb. Like they're conscious of their actions, but they're letting their feelings dictate them, not their brains. Which, ok...is dumb. But to some people, love trumps all, idek.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lielay Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 In the book, Chen Yi Cheng is 4 years younger than Lu Feng and they meet when CYC is 13/14 years old. I found a link to the Chinese Novel: Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. I'm on the 5th part, but it's slow going because my written Chinese is not as good as my spoken Chinese.

estee12 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 The movie coming out soon? I saw the second trailer. It seems to be a very abusive relationship.. Like those love/ hate kind. It feels even more extreme than Shang yin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels even more extreme than Shang yin.. Yep. I'm thrilled (if you couldn't tell, I'm a very through sadist --- or, from a similar viewpoint, a masochist). I can't remember when this movie was due....I think either this month, or August?? Can someone remind me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels even more extreme than Shang yin.. Shangyin is a different genre all together. I'd say it's a romcom (with decidedly non-romcom scenes) compared to RTTL. (I haven't read the complete Shangyin novels, just bits and pieces, but I am aware of the drama set straight after the webseries. And the ending ^^). Round Trip to Love...I don't even know what it is. Pain. Self-inflicted pain. Ok, just kidding. Not. Definitely a love/hate relationship. Definitely extreme. Also unhealthy and insane, but that's my opinion. A very trying relationship, always put to the test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

estee12 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Haha you should read if u have time! I've already finished both novels for Shang yin and honestly I would recommend ppl not to bother much about book 2. Too over dramatic plots that doesn't make sense. Book 1 is good enough. Yeah round trip to love seems a bit too.... Abusive. I wonder how many scenes they cut off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
