## My Thoughts on My Child Can’t Possibly Score 2 Points "My Child Can’t Possibly Score 2 Points" is a quirky title that immediately grabbed my attention, and after diving in, I can see why it's garnered a dedicated fanbase. It's a fun blend of sci-fi, romance, and school life, centered around a brilliant female lead and her unexpected parenting journey. ### First Impressions Initially, I was a little taken aback by the FL, Ming Can's, perceived arrogance. She's undoubtedly intelligent and driven, which can come across as a bit… superior. However, as the story unfolds, you realize there's more depth to her character than meets the eye. Her initial prejudice against the male lead, stemming from past experiences and some unfortunate gossip, adds an interesting layer to their dynamic. ### What Works Well What I truly appreciate is the novel's refreshing take on romance tropes. The male lead, Chi Xiao, isn't the typical cold, aloof type. He's actually quite earnest and dedicated, falling for Ming Can first and patiently working to win her over. I found this dynamic incredibly endearing. The author does a great job of portraying a couple with clear communication, mutual understanding, and a willingness to compromise. It's a mature and realistic portrayal of a relationship, which is a welcome change of pace. The addition of their future child, Miao Miao, adds another layer of sweetness to the story. His adorable antics and Ming Can's initial disbelief at his math struggles create plenty of humorous moments. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Okay, let's address a few potential spoilers. Some readers might initially hope for Chi Yao to be the male lead, given his sunny disposition. However, I think Chi Xiao ultimately proves to be the better match for Ming Can. Also, it's revealed that Ming Can's initial dislike for Chi Xiao was based on misinformation from a jealous friend. ### Final Verdict Despite my initial reservations about the female lead's character, "My Child Can’t Possibly Score 2 Points" won me over with its engaging plot, charming characters, and refreshing take on romance. It's a cute and heartwarming story that explores themes of family, ambition, and overcoming prejudice. If you're looking for a novel with a strong female lead, a devoted male lead, and a healthy dose of humor, I highly recommend giving this one a try. I'm giving it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
