world hopping

Ji Huai lived for twenty-three years. He was a bad man and owed countless debts. When he died, he was told that he could not be reincarnated. In order to reincarnate, he bound a good man training system and started a long road to atonement.

From the same author as I Am a Good Man, it's another tasker whitewashing/changing-scum-into-good-man world-hopping.

- OG is a scum man who specialize in tricking girls into 'saving money together for their future' and then he abandons the girl and runs away with the money. MC comes in and takes back the FL (OG abandoned her in the train station) and started to worked hard for their future.

- OG is a rich second generation who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. Got kicked out of the house after his company went bankrupt, meets FL and pursued her. they end up living together for some time. Laters, he got tired of it and went home for a political marriage. MC comes in just when OG was kicked out, he still chased the FL who was still a small actress at the time. After falling inlove, he 'changed his ways' and established a company in the entertainment industry to support FL.

- OG is a scum man. He became a couple with junior girl FL in their University (she pursued OG), but still acted ambiguous with another Senior Sister at their school. OG & FL would often break up then get back together when OG needs a woman. MC comes in and denies any ambiguousness with the Senior Sister. Also, became a 'licking dog' to the FL. I didn't really like this arc much. IMO, after seeing how good MC is to her, FL developed a Princess disease =_=

- OG is from a reorganized family and has been abused by his stepmom and father since he was a child. Also grew up to be abusive and would often vent his anger on the FL. MC comes in and cuts-off his relationship with his family. Also seek counseling/treatment for his psychological problems. Hmm.. I didn't really like our MC here, his 'revenge' feels weird to me...

- OG divorced his wife and did not want the child, just the house, he even fought to reduce the child support to be given so FL's heart is completely cold. MC comes in and now, he has to chase back his wife and son. Felt a bit uncomfortable cos I know its not MC, but scumbag OG's fault.

- Ancient times. OG is the Emperor, there are a bunch of other concubines including FL. (MC hasn't set up an Empress). MC came and just dotes on FL while FL fight wits and suppress the other concubine fighting for MC's favor. I didn't really like this arc cos for me, FL and the other concubines are all in the same position. I felt like it was natural for them to fight for favor, otherwise, they would be living a widowed marriage. FL just happened to be the "chosen one" XD

- OG and FL lives with OG's parents, while OG's siblings are 'working outside'. OG & FL does all the work at home and the restaurant while all the money earned goes to the parents, they are only given a very small allowance. But his parents/sibs are still ungrateful and mistreat them, they even think that OG's family are the ones taking advantage cos they live at home. MC comes in and they LEAVE and work hard outside, all the money they earn goes to their own family. Meanwhile, the restaurant at home doesn't function without OG's family cos everyone is lazy. I like this one ♥

- OG married FL whose wealthier than him. They live in a house under FL's name cos he can't afford one. OG feels that his dignity is slighted so he constantly puts down FL. FL gives birth and suffered post-partum depression. OG just ignored it and even had an affair. Later, FL committed suicide. MC comes in and quits his job to accompany FL and help her recover from depression. The daily recording of family life was sweet but I felt like the development to entertainment circle later was unnecessary :3

- OG has a white moonlight childhood friend. Childhood friend married a rich second generation but his family disapproves so the guy don't give her money, so she spends OG's money instead. Even if OG & FL is already married, he is still infatuated with childhood friend like an idiot. MC comes in and asks the childhood friend for the money he gave her XD Strictly says, that he only treats her as a friend/neighbor. I also like this one~ ♥

- OG is the youngest son in the countryside and he is still unfavored. All the work in the fields falls on FL and she is still being bullied by her mother and sister-in-law at home. MC comes in and convinces FL to move to the City, gets a job as a mover of goods, then buy his own tractor, later they buy land and built communities. Life keeps getting better and better. ♥

- OG is a scumbag rich second generation, chased an innocent highschool classmate FL, got her pregnant but did not want to take responsibility, Laters, his family went bankrupt so he married FL and FL suffered with him. MC comes in and chases her properly. There are reborn shameless people here~

- OG is a doctor . FL is in business so they rarely spend time together. OG cheats with an intern in the hospital, wasting 10 years of marriage. MC comes in and distances himself from the intern and became more romantic with FL.

- Ancient times. OG is the son of a restaurant owner, their family is quite prosperous. OG's Dad got sick and their family became poor. OG's fiancee backs out of the engagement and her family sends her cousin (FL) instead. OG dislikes FL and spends his family's (already running out) fortune for the ex-fiancee. MC comes in and takes over the restaurant as chef and treats FL well after marriage.

FL is a rich second generation transfer student. OG is a poor Study God who is one of the Spare Tires of a Green Tea Classmate. Green Tea is actually jealous of FL and when she finds out that FL has a crush on OG, she hints at OG to treat her badly. MC comes in and returns FL's crush...and also help her improve her grades. MC sets up a Live Broadcast of school lessons to earn money. ♥

- Zombie apocalypse. OG awakens mental abilities, but its weak during the early stage so he was still thrown out as bait. Before that, he also threw FL (his pre-apocalypse gf) to the zombies. MC comes in and trains his mental abilities, never gave up on FL, help other ability users and finally, became the Ace(?) of the Base.

- OG is a SCUMBAG! FL was originally his blind date, they got married happily. Laters, he found out that FL was also set to be his cousin's blind date but was 'brushed down' by his Aunt so he thinks that FL only 'settled' for him. He starts to torture FL mentally/spiritually. FL proposed to divorce but he didn't let go until FL died of depression. MC comes in and treats FL well. He becomes a mystery writer.

- OG is from a patriarchal family, FL gave birth to a daughter and now she's pregnant with another one. OG's family is forcing her to abort. In the original timeline, FL was aborted and from then on, she hated OG and planned to divorce. After MC came, he refused to have the child aborted then they moved away from his patriarchal family. Hmm... my issue here is that FL also agreed with the abortion on the surface (of course, in her heart, she really didn't want to) OG thought that she agreed for real so he didn't think so much and he also agreed. That's why he was so blindsided when FL filed for divorce... I feel like it makes no sense to just blame/hate the OG for it when she didn't show opposition in the first place.

- Ancient times. OG is the youngest son and by the time of his marriage, the family has spent all the money. He married a child bride living at their house, often being treated as a servant. He is a hunter and likes to cater his older brother's favor by bringing his preys to their family. He gets into an accident, his sister-in-laws framed his wife and his brothers just waited for him to die of starvation. MC comes in and treats his Little Wife well. He cuts off relations with his family and they move into town He stops being a hunter and became a bird trainer. FL is so well-behaved on this one. ♥

- Modern. OG and FL has been together since their school days. OG is poor so FL takes the initiative to pay the bills every time and then OG gradually took her for granted. He was surprised when FL broke up with him, and even said some things when he was drunk that caused FL to be rumored in their hometown. FL moved away and never showed up in front of him again. MC comes in and starts to change, cherish FL more and show that he cares about her too. They survive a long distance relationship (MC in the City. FL in their hometown)

- OG is a Phoenix Man, escaped the ravines thru studying but found out he was not so special once he came to the City. He is very shrewd/calculating. He became a couple with FL cos FL is innocent/naive and thinks he is good everywhere. When he found out that FL's family is complicated and he might not 'profit', he decisively abandons her. MC comes in and treats FL well, supporting her when her family comes to trouble her. He allowed FL to stay silly sweet. I also like this ♥ except that FL's BFF can be so annoying sometimes, chanting to FL's ears all day that MC must be scum.

- Little wolfdog. OG is a fresh grad new hire, uses 'beauty' to chase his immediate superior, FL and FL helps him in the company. After getting promoted, he breaks up with FL and FL leaves the company. MC comes in and still becomes FL's little wolf dog. He becomes a famous blogger so he can help FL 'drive the company's sales'~~~.

- OG is a slacker. He is unemployed and everything depends on the FL. They are the only poor family in the area, so his daughter grew up with low self-esteem/feeling inferior. MC comes in and he starts to work hard, his reason for changing is that he does not want his daughter to be laughed at.

- OG inherited his Father's business but doesn't know how to run it. OG's Dad wants him to marry FL (secretary) so someone can assist him in the company but OG is only interested in playing with different women. MC comes in and starts to proposition FL with some CEO routines, a bit greasy. Lol. I didn't really like MC's 'persona' here.

- OG is an orphan with only a Grandma, while FL has a runaway mom and remarried Dad. He takes advantage of FL's emotional weakness to make her fall inlove w/ him before she went into college in another City, cheats with other women while FL is away. They get married, he doesn't change, FL divorces him and moves away. MC comes in and stays loyal with FL, also restarted his grandparent's aquaculture farm and uses the money he earns to buy things for FL ♥

- OG is a male educated youth, he married villager FL cos he can't stand the hard life. After the college entrance examination resume, he leaves for the City, leaving the pregnant FL alone, FL dies half a month later. MC comes in and postpones going to College for a year to wait for FL to give birth, tutors FL so they can go to University together.

- My favorite arc. OG is from a poor family, decided to use Sports to support himself. He falls for FL, the only daughter of the richest man but always felt inferior cos he couldn't make achievements. MC comes in when he was still young, starts training in badminton early. He becomes a World Champion. MC is very self-disciplined ♥ Again, not amused with the netizens =_=

- Some mild drama. OG has a fiancee. Fiancee breaks up their engagement to get together with an Actor. Actor has a girlfriend (FL), breaks up with her so he can be together with fiancee. OG harasses (Ex-)Girlfriend to get together with him as "revenge" to the scum couple. Girlfriend doesn't agree, gets into an accident then get amnesia. OG lies to her, telling her they're inlove, playing with her. Later, he fell for real but then FL remembers everything and leaves. MC comes in and followed OG's previous way but this time, he really loved her sincerely from the start. FL eventually recovers from amnesia again, but this time, she decided to stay with MC.

- OG is a born scumbag XD He is an egoist, because he's incompetent, he constantly undermines FL's self-confidence until she gets low self-esteem and depression. MC comes in and starts to build up FL's self-confidence again. The FL is too...dependent on MC on this one, her boyfriend is what makes or breaks her =_=

- Both OG and FL is from the same vocational school. OG isn't valued by his family cos he is a school dropout while FL's family is poor. OG breaks the jar and really became unpromising like what his relatives expected him to be, also dragged down FL to suffer with him. MC comes in and sets up a food stall then laters, a restaurant. Him and FL also became successful thru their craft. ♥

- OG and FL is married and plans to have no kids (DINK) but OG is forced by his mom to have one so he had an illegitimate child w/ the woman his mom chose. FL finds out, they divorced. MC comes in and refuses his mom, also got himself ligated to prove his determination to DINK.

- OG dies, preggo FL has miscarriage and later tormented by OG's bloodsucking family for his death compensation. MC arrives too late so he can only become a ghost, only FL can see her and he accompanies her throughout her whole life, protecting her and his son.

Ancient times. OG is a minister at court, has a wife (FL), obeys his mother to marry his cousin as his concubine. He is not...knowledgeable on what happens at the backyard/the behind-the-scenes fight of the wife and concubine so he frequently falls for his cousin's white lotus acts and wrongs his wife. MC comes in and refuses to accept a concubine, shows that he is whole hearted to his wife.

Ending is MC is redeemed from whatever sin he did and the reincarnation passage is opened, and he can be reborn with a blank slate.

Hmm.. this is very similar to author-sama's other work, I Am a Good Man, in which MC also assimilates the original, so in his mind, he IS the scum and he's making amends to the FL. (I prefer I Am A Good Man though) It's just that some of the FLs here are more tossing than in IAAGM and since I'm aware that OG is just a tasker it feels...too much sometimes.

Author-sama also like to set up a 'rational'-BFF-for-the-FL trope who would advise her that two-legged men are everywhere, MC is not paying enough (money) in the relationship, MC must be scum etc. etc. which can get annoying sometimes cos on the one side, MC is trying to save their relationship while the 'rational BFF' is constantly chirping at FL's ear to break up, break up, break up... =_=

Hmm... what else? There's too much social media influence or how much the netizens seem to care about MC and FL. For some arcs, like earning thru live broadcast or MC himself is a blogger is okay; but even in other arcs, where MC & FL are just restaurant owners, some netizen would take a photo of them and they'll go viral or the aquaculture MC, his grandma became a live broadcast anchor or the Sports MC where the 'righteous netizens' are questioning his private life =_= I feel like it was unnecessary/author-sama didn't need to add the reactions of mob netizens to show that MC & FL are living a happy life. Just saying~~

Overall, its good. And I still like the commoner arcs XD It's just that author-sama added some recurring tropes so it feels repetitive. And there wasn't really something that's totally new, either something similar already happened in I Am A Good Man or on some other world hopping novels I've previously read so you can easily guessed the development.

Read this for male MC QT white-washing.
