I don't think I've ever seen a more accurate description of this story... Thank you(づ￣ ³￣)づ
Regardless of why lil mo is physically rejecting him, it's still not right for he tain to keep pushing his boundaries when lil mo is clearly saying and showing no in ever way possible he doesn't like it. Lil mo can be head over heels in love with he tain but still say no to his advances especially with how agressive they are. He tain's action show little respect for lil mo and are done to please he tain himself. No one is surprised by his behavior they are upset with it cause it's wrong and quite frankly gross
exactly, he tian did it purely because he wanted to--and that is exactly his personality. he's used to pushing boundaries to get what he wants, and that's been his thing since forever. even little mo has been accustomed to it lmao. but one thing's for sure, when he pushes boundaries, he never has any malicious intent to harm mo--he simply does it to see his (cute) reactions and/or imply that he likes little mo enough to want to see more of him.
also, i don't see the point of claiming "it's wrong" as well. I mean, who are we telling it to?? the possible children reading??? either way, it becomes "wrong" and "disgusting" simply because you project yourselves and your standards to the characters and the plot. i mean sure, if that was me in mo's position i would be scared and disgusted and shout no--and im sure most of us would feel that--but i'm not little mo, am i? you aren't, either. he's a different character with a different personality and different tolerance and acceptance when it comes to he tian, purely because they both know each other better in the relationship they have rn.
rather than deciding what's "right" or "wrong," why not just try to read the media from the characters' perspective instead, and enjoy the complexity that different perspectives and personalities bring? stop simplifying everything into "right" or "wrong" from your standards when we're supposed to enjoy/analyze the media we actively choose to digest instead.
idk, but if i try to look at it from he tian's perspective and from their past interactions, he tian probably believes mo's tolerance is higher, and that reacting physically by punching or anything is not really him "hating" it, but it's him "hesitating" and that he can push him a little bit more. this is just a theory and it really is just my opinion, but he probably believes that it's when little mo is truly disgusted--such as when mo cried when he tian forced a kiss on him before, a time when he tian realized he was wrong and started going slow(in his definition lmao)--that's when he believes mo truly hates it and that he has to stop, or else it'll be irrepairable.
plus, the boys being physical are actually quite natural in this manhua, it's just that we redefined mo's reaction based on the context of the situation, and we perceive it as mo truly hating it and he tian crossing the line.
another thing, he tian's always been a really pushy and possessive character right from the start. if you're surprised of that fact, then are you really reading properly lmao
