Give Me to Bai

Shen Youbai is arrogant. Xu Pinyu belongs to him. Xu Pinyu and Shen Youbai are students in the same grade, but there is a gap between them, the U-shaped school building. Xu Pinyu is in class K, where the grades are barely passible, whereas Shen Youbai is in class A, where there are elite students everywhere. But this doesn’t stop Xu Pinyu’s secret love for Shen Youbai. She secretly gave him roses, secretly cut the buttons of his shirt because of the school rumour, and intentionally violated the school rules and pretended to wear a short skirt in order to have more contact with him. Everything she did was for him, the one in her heart. The first half of this dark unrequited love is like a solo dance, you can feel the sour and bitter feelings in it. But what she didn’t know about the other person, was that he had already fallen deep into the nightmare called ‘Xu Pinyu’.

## My Thoughts on Give Me to Bai "Give Me to Bai" is definitely a novel that knows its audience. Diving in, I quickly realized this wasn't going to be a slow-burn romance, but rather a fast-paced, smut-heavy story with a side of yandere tendencies. It's a wild ride, and whether you enjoy it will largely depend on your tolerance for that kind of intensity. ### First Impressions My initial impression was a bit mixed. The story throws you right into the thick of things, and the sheer amount of *ahem* "intimacy" early on was a little overwhelming. It felt like the characters were more driven by lust than genuine connection, which made it difficult to invest in their relationship at first. However, as I continued reading, I began to appreciate the unique dynamic between the leads. ### What Works Well One of the strongest aspects of "Give Me to Bai" is the straightforward communication between the main characters. Unlike many romance novels where misunderstandings drag on for chapters, these two actually talk through their issues. This was a breath of fresh air, especially considering the ML's, shall we say, *intense* personality. I also appreciated the author's attempt to add a plot beyond the smut. The family drama and the characters' backstories provided some much-needed depth to the story. Plus, the novel doesn't shy away from portraying realistic aspects of teenage relationships, like navigating puberty and thinking about sex... a lot. ### Areas of Concern Honestly, the sheer volume of smut can be a double-edged sword. While some readers might revel in it, I personally felt that it overshadowed the emotional development of the characters. There were times when I wished the author had replaced some of the steamy scenes with more moments of genuine connection and pining. It also felt like the author was trying to touch on some darker elements with the ML's yandere tendencies but never fully committed to exploring them in a meaningful way. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Okay, let's talk spoilers. The whole potential step-sibling situation? Definitely added some drama, but it felt a bit cliché. And the five-year separation? It happened and resolved so quickly, it was almost jarring. ### Final Verdict Overall, "Give Me to Bai" is an enjoyable read if you're looking for a smutty, fast-paced romance with a yandere twist. Just be prepared for a wild ride with a lot of, well, *action*. While the plot and character development could be stronger, the straightforward communication and the unique dynamic between the leads make it a worthwhile read for those who enjoy this genre. I'd give it a solid 3.8 out of 5 stars.
