Looking for books similar to Palace Wall Willow. It doesn’t have to be the kind where the male and female leads must fight to the death, with one of them inevitably dying. There can be national hatred and family feuds separating them, or a divide between righteousness and evil. The story should be logical and reflect the thinking of normal people.

This is the most memorable book I've ever read. It's unpretentious and very realistic, which is why many friends didn't understand it and commented that the female lead was weak and the male lead was annoying. This book doesn't glorify evil and believe that villains should die.
I was deeply moved. Xue Duyun is an exceptionally responsible man; he treats everyone well, yet he hurts Shen Yu time and time again. He takes relationships very seriously, and when Shen Yu asked him if he had ever loved Nanxi, he didn't answer her. My favorite is Xu Yafei, that boy in the white shirt—did he also grace your youth and gently caress a girl's years?
Although it contains a lot of explicit content, it's really good; it's the first novel I read in its entirety.
Finished reading on August 7, 2021! 🌸🌸🌸 This is the second novel I've read written in the first person. I deeply admire the author's logical thinking and precise control over details. Each character has their own storyline, and the emotional descriptions of the characters are delicate and complex, their inner thoughts are realistic, and each character is vivid and soulful.
The novels I used to read were endless, with some having over 1000 chapters and still not finished. Most of them featured doting husbands, wealthy young masters, billionaires, and all-powerful figures—too exaggerated and too fictional. However, this novel has over 300 chapters, which is neither too long nor too short, and the story is complete and perfect.
Although many people criticize the female lead, it's undeniable that this is a very good novel, so don't let the comments affect you. Whether it's Xue Duyun, Xu Yafei, or Jiang Feng, they are all a kind of luck and happiness for Shen Yu. It's just that the order in which love appears is very important. Some love, unspoken at the time, can never be expressed again.
What I find most captivating about this novel is the heroine's genuine emotions, which is also what makes it so memorable. I believe kindness is inherent in human nature. While the heroine is indeed a bit too kind in the novel, it stems from her own experiences, making it natural for her to feel for others' suffering. Some say she's too weak, but I disagree.
Characters like Xue Duyun, Xu Yafei, Jiang Feng, and Na Dong are vividly portrayed with flesh and blood, full of emotion and righteousness. The story is captivating and I wanted to read it in one sitting. A great book!
This is the best book I've ever read so far. I was able to read it from beginning to end without missing a single word and still felt like I wanted more. I also want to read Jiang Feng's side stories. I hope he didn't die and that he was saved by Na Dong. That would be perfect. Although I did criticize the female lead for being stupid while reading, that's just how characters are.
It's so good! While watching, I kept thinking that this exciting content could be made into a TV series. I don't want Jiang Feng to die; I hope he and Na Dong end up together! It's so heartbreaking!
