Why are the Protagonist Gong and Shou Fighting Because of Me?

Tang Bai was born into a wealthy family. His body was soft and slender, and he loved to act spoiled. His family searched far and wide to find him a handsome and rich prospective fiancé. However, the prospective fiancé liked independent and strong omegas and was very resistant to this business marriage. One day, Tang Bai’s brain short circuited, causing him to believe that he lived in a book. He was the cannon fodder shou, and his prospective fiancé was the protagonist gong. The protagonist shou, Xie Ruheng, was a strong, independent omega of the new era who pretended to be an alpha. In the future, he would become a marshal and the light of the omegas. No wonder the love-filled bento that he worked super hard to make was rejected by his prospective fiancé who didn’t even look at it. Tang Bai’s eyes reddened as he turned around. He saw that Xie Ruheng was eating the horrible tasting training meal. How could the future light of the omegas eat this kind of devil’s cuisine that was fed to the pigs? Tang Bai shyly said: “This was personally made by me. Us omegas need to pay attention to our diet and take care of our bodies~” Xie Ruheng: ……? The first time Xie Ruheng saw Tang Bai, he thought that even when this omega cried, he was still like the omega of his dreams. Although Tang Bai was virtuous, delicate, beautiful, and cute, he already had a prospective fiancé! Xie Ruheng expressed with grief: “I won’t be the third party.” Tang Bai was extremely moved, thinking that Xie Ruheng had already become good sisters with him and wouldn’t come to steal his man. There was a saying that Alphas were like clothes and good sisters were like one’s hands and feet. Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of you! Xie Ruheng: …… Very soon, Xie Ruheng heard a rumor. Tang Bai’s prospective fiancé hated Tang Bai, but he couldn’t defy the orders of his family, so he could only create trouble for Tang Bai everywhere. Xie Ruheng: This is the omega of my dreams that I want to hold in the palm of my hands, and you actually don’t cherish him? tr*sh! Xie Ruheng: Isn’t it just stealing a man? So sweet. Tang Bai found out in horror: Why are the protagonist gong and shou fighting because of me?! Tang Bai: Oh! They must have a love and hate relationship!

## My Thoughts on *Why are the Protagonist Gong and Shou Fighting Because of Me?* This novel's title hooked me immediately. It promised a comedic romp, but I quickly discovered it's so much more than just a fluffy misunderstanding. While the humor is definitely present, the story delves into complex themes of gender discrimination, social inequality, and fighting for what you believe in. It's a surprisingly poignant read that left me thinking long after I finished. ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the promise of lighthearted romance and accidental green tea schemes. The premise of an omega MC accidentally captivating two alpha leads sounded hilarious. While those elements are there, what really grabbed me was the unexpected depth of the world-building and the characters' motivations. It's a delightful blend of fluff and substance. ### What Works Well The MC, Tang Bai, is a standout. He's not your typical weak omega, but a confident and charismatic individual with a passion for mechas. I loved watching him challenge societal norms and become an advocate for omega rights. The ML, Xie Ruhang, is equally compelling. He's supportive, multifaceted, and his inner monologues are pure gold. Their interactions are adorable, and their relationship feels genuinely supportive. Many readers have praised the novel for tackling issues like victim blaming and gender roles head-on. It's rare to see an ABO story delve into these topics with such depth, making this novel a refreshing and thought-provoking read. The story accurately mirrors the development of modern-day women's rights and civil rights movements in the US in a way that leaves me pleasantly surprised. I'm pretty sure that the author did not actually take US history lessons before lol, so I'm guessing that the author made the plot just off of their own logic. ### Areas of Concern While I thoroughly enjoyed the story, I can see where some readers might find certain aspects less appealing. The initial misunderstandings, while funny, do drag on a bit. I also noticed several reviewers mentioned that the world feels a bit too centered around Tang Bai, with other characters not getting as much development. Also, the constant reminders of how perfect and gorgeous he is can get a little tiring. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Several reviewers discussed plot twists and character reveals, so proceed with caution! One key point mentioned is the ML's true identity and the existence of a parallel universe where he and the MC have a different dynamic. If you prefer to go in blind, skip the next section. ### Final Verdict Despite minor flaws, *Why are the Protagonist Gong and Shou Fighting Because of Me?* is a fantastic read. It's a surprisingly deep and empowering story that tackles important social issues with humor and heart. If you're looking for a BL novel that's more than just fluff, I highly recommend giving this one a try.
