/ Contemporary Romance / Muchuan and Xiang Wan
4.7 (1,145 ratings)
Synopsis
Aspiring author Xiang Wan was deemed hopeless by her family and better off married when her fourth novel still did not do well.
Just as she started to doubt herself and wonder if she should continue to pursue her dream as an author, things take an unexpected turn when a dazzling guy appears before her and she was taken away by the police as a prime suspect of a murder case.
A murder had taken place and the details were eerily similar to her mystery novel.
From then on, her life turned topsy-turvy.

Translator Review:
This is a novel encompassed with mystery, ethics, family ties, and romance. Of course, the highlights of this book are the murder cases.
Although it’s a modern setup where none of the characters have a system or any other cheats, the Author managed to delight me with her writing, creative plots and a good pace without dragging her story.
I marvel at the way the Author links up the clues and plot to explain the individual cases as well as paving the way to unravel the huge conspiracy behind the individual murders. Romantic plots are light-hearted so readers could take a breather from the plots of gruesome murders.
Frequency of release: 1 chapter/daily

An amazing spinoff of the classic Nightmare on Elm Street series, Murder The Dream Guy brings the series to a brutal, gripping conclusion that is cathartic in all the worst ways. Some copyrighted names have been changed to avoid legal issues, but that hardly should impair your enjoyment.
One of the best novels in qidian. It's suspenseful and each chapters challenges my courage and imagination. Even the romance is suspenseful XD. It's not the type of cliché romance stories that the guy is immediately infatuated. There are many ups and downs in the relationship and it's not perfect and that's the exact reason why I love this novel. It feels real. You can sometimes relate to certain situations and the ambiguity of their relationship will send your emotions in a rollercoaster. You will be ashamed for her in a minute and then feel proud of her in the next. It's somehow like having a friend. You can connect to the characters in a peculiar way and you'll find yourself being enlightened by life lessons. It's really a great story because it shows that not all relationships start almost instantly. The romance between the two main leads is not slow paced but is a normal relationship between two human beings. They have to get to know each other first, get comfortable and build their trust for each other. They need a strong foundation for their relationship to make it last as long as it could because a relationship built only on sparks and amusement is not a healthy relationship (in my opinion). So anyway, I IMPLORE the readers here in qidian to try out this novel. Especially to the readers who are sick of all the carbon copy novels here in qidian that are like viruses. XD
OMGGGG~ I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE CHAPTERS TO BE OUT SINCE IT CAME ON THE VOTING POLL😍😍 AND NOW IT IS FINALLLLLY HERE WHEN I SAW IT WAS GONE FROM THE POLLS😄😄😂 I CAN FINALLY START A LITTLE DIFFERENT GENRE BUT WITH THAT SPICE OF ROMANCE STILL IN IT😊😍
OMG?!!! So good. Asia novels making me feel good. Its always killing d boredom.... Dis novel is 💯
A 5-star landslide for me! Detective stories here in Webnovel are quite few, and you can only stumble upon good ones sporadically. When "Murder the Dream Guy" popped out of the upcoming novels, I gave it all of my energy stones everyday, so I can add it to my library ASAP. And as expected, I didn't waste any of my energy stones! The novel is great! Xiang Wan's a doll, especially when Bai Muchuan flirts at her. But that's just one of the many facets of this novel. You have to be on the lookout for the mystery as well. Each of the case proves to be enthralling you'd find yourself racking up your own brain to solve them and wanting to give out your own deductions too. The supporting characters each have their own quirks and individuality it's so fascinating to read their developments in the course of the novel. And the updates, wow! Each chapter is long, makes you feel every chapter is worth the SS you spend. Overall, this is a must-read. I recommend this to everyone who loves mystery romance to give it a try!
18 ss is way too much.. we are not given enough power stones daily. I like this story because it is different from other web novels which contain only romantic love stories . This story has a romance mixed with mystry, which makes it different from other stories. I dont want to stop reading it because of power stones.
I'm really looking forward to this LN! Keep up the good work and make sure the supply of chapters come out smoothly! Mass release asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posting here in case none of my fellow readers read my last comment on chapter 628! • 🌱 • • 🌱 • • 🌱 • • 🌱 • • 🌱 • Hi, guys! So someone from the team commented on someone's forum asking about why novels are getting dropped out of nowhere. Basically, the main explanation they said is that the amount of collection (bought coins spent to unlock chapters {not the bonus ones we occasionally received} and coin gifts we give) isn't enough for the upkeep of a novel translation. Example: The salary of a translator per chapter is $30 (just a sample {it can vary from the teams}). The amount they spent to pay for an editor is $30. But the collection amount is somewhere $300 per month. Sample tally: Per chapter, there's a 29 coins. Everyday, their post goal update is 2 chapters. So there's a 54 coins per reader. And that's like around a dollar a day based on the coins payment system. Now, multiply it by (let's say) 30, then it's (2*30)*29 = 1,740 coins. Now, think how many people nowadays are gifting some coins on novels. With 1,740 coins alone if we convert it into cash using the lowest amount of coin package (50 coins per $0.99) in their system, (1,740/50)*$.099 = 34.452 Now that money will still need to be broken up, ⅓ for the original Chinese/Korean author, ⅓ for Webnovel, and the other ⅓ is for the team. In that $30 something, only around $10 will be sent to the team to be divided for the editor, translator, and team management. I know we both love this novel but let's be real that a lot of people would rather consume something free rather than to pay for it. This is why novels with low ranking and have less loyal readers gets killed when these ends doesn't meet! Remember the amount of each editors and translators makes per novel doesn't get affected in these paywalls. For every chapter they finished, they will get amount of what is stated on their contracts. If we are basing that sample tally I made, this novel needs at least 100 regular paying readers for this to be continued! 😭😭😭😭 This would be all my last message here until this (maybe) might continued (hopefully) soon. Please, please, please remember to promote this novel to everyone you know or stranger you meet so that this novel won't be buried in WN's dump yard! 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 Please also bump this post to let the other readers read this! 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 Bye bye lovelies! 😭 I'll miss you! I still hate you Cheng bitch! And I'm still annoyed with you, Xiang Wan! Please grow up! Bai Muchuan, you're so cool! I wish I could meet someone as cool as you! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 • 👍🏻 Also if anyone of you managed to join Webnovel Facebook group, please say hi to me there! 😭 Just look for Elle the mod! 😭
First 10 chapters: After all of romance enovels down there ( don't get me wrong, I absolutely love them 😂), this book gave a fresh and unique side. Love it how the story develop....with realistic FL (not so perfect but kind of adorable) and mysterious ML, I hope that it will bring me to great adventure ahead. Looking forward for more ..... 😍😍😍
This is amazing. 🌟🌟 Besides the fact that the chapters are long and are worth reading, the story is a blast. Cool characterization - shameless ML and adorable FL. Unpredictable plot- Hands down to the author to surprise us with the mind-rattling events. Excellent translation- although I'm not Chinese to verify the exactness of the meaning, I like the diction alongside literary devices and idioms used and explained well. It deserves the first rank, but reality is brutal, most readers would love more dog foods and romance more.. 😂😂😂. Ok ok. SCRAM SCRAM. 😘😍
Ah I see this is the new top 5 novel of this week which Will be forgotten by every one next week,come on quindian at least manipulate votes subtly lol😂😂
This is not fair of webnovel not updating old novels .. stopping them midways while starting new one .. first just complete the old one then start a new . So annoyed at it ... plz continue this novel with regular updates as it used to be .. its good and different story . I gues only 100 ch are left just translate them then start afresh plzzzz
Its is an awesome novel in which every character has a Personality and there are no shallow cannon fodder characters!!! Its slow paced because its well developed with no fillers and substantial progress.. People complaint about romance being slow and frustrating, i guess we are just so used to reading novels with rocket fast romance that slight natural and normal life's touch seems boring..??😕😕 I love this novel....this is my most favorite original novel..😣
I loved this in the beginning- the story had a very interesting premise in terms of how crimes had been committed and furthermore having a female protagonist in a detective novel was unusual. But the quality dropped as coincidences upon coincidences piled up with bizarre explanations, and even more disappointingly female lead proved to be a scaredy-cat who ran to a stranger’s (male lead) home at the first sign of trouble. Male lead’s personality is also weird and I found it very difficult to like him. Overall, not highly recommended (maybe if you are bored and have no other mystery novels to read- I know they are hard to come by).
The stones are way too expensive plus the relationship between ML and FL is taking too long to develop. ML interest in the FL is not encouraging, if it's the author's way of keeping suspense then I think suspense technique should be reviewed as this is too dragging. Might cause readers to loose interest.
May I just say how much I LOOOOOOVE this novel?? I only started reading this yesterday, and let me just say, every chapter is AMAZING!!! I absolutely love our leads. The plot is astonishing etc. This novel is a MUST-READ.
This novel is my most favorite and always looking forward to new chapters and I just love this novel very much, and I will say that this story is very unique ,,, in this story the people they all have different personalities writer have described it so much in detail, their work all that , thanks very much.
