so I have read a novel the names of the characters in that book is the same as this manhua
so the plot goes like this in the novel
- instead of being reborn or going back to the past, the mc decided just to fake his death
- the ML said that the corpse was not the MC that line is actually the same from the novel
- the cousin is supposed to be a girl not a boy based on the novel
- the first chapters of the novels and manhua is the same too but some of the details isn't
SPOILER WARNING FROM HERE ON
- the mc really didn't die in the novel he just faked his death, the corpse was the tour guide
- why did the corpse had the watch? it was actually left at the van
- based on the novel, the MC decided to be a actor
- did y'all know that the mc can be saved since he called the ml but the ml's white moonlight declined the call
- the cousin is a girl and she thought that this new actor was her in-law so she decided to chase him like an idol or a fangirl (yeah the mc was her in-law in the past but in his new identity it's a no no)
if y'all want to read the novel the title is
"After the Stand-In Shou Faked his Death"
I'll actually rate them both as an 8.5/10
