Show Me the Number One Book on Your Shelf ⚠️⚠️⚠️ No Angsty Stories!
I saw someone describe it as a tearjerker and commented that I wouldn't read it because I'm a total crybaby and didn't want to sob. But I couldn't resist. I ended up crying my eyes out late at night, and my sister even made fun of me. I want to find the person who recommended it and ask them to cover the cost of my tissues, but I can't find them anymore 😭

I read the first part and thought it was pretty good. The male lead isn't some emperor, prince, regent, or powerful prime minister. The theme of secret guards is very novel. Secret guards have finally come out on top and have their day! I've read other novels before where I liked secret guards, but they were usually just supporting characters like the female lead's maids, and their roles were…
It's pretty good. The male lead isn't a prince, emperor, or heir; he's a bodyguard. The plot is quite novel. But when does the male lead decide to stop running away? When does he stop considering himself of lowly status and become willing to accept the female lead? ٩(⑉Ծ^Ծ⑉)ᕗ
Well, how should I put it? Anyway, I absolutely, positively love this story! Haha, I especially love "A Pot of Tea." Why? Because it's the first time I've seen an author who likes, reads, and scrolls through almost every comment. I also adore this story.
My heart aches for Zhao Qin. He was such a handsome and talented man, yet his life was ruined by that tyrannical and debauched emperor. My heart aches for the female lead and her loyal guards, and for all the patriotic heroes and innocent civilians who were born in the wrong era. I hope the author won't make it too heartbreaking, and that the readers and the main characters will have a happy ending!
I love this book! ❤❤❤ I love the bodyguard Ah Qi ❤❤❤ I love Yu Wan, who only loves Ah Qi. ❤❤❤ Zhao Qin admires Mo Huaiyu, who endured hardship and remained devoted to his country. ❤❤❤ I love many minor characters who die shortly after their appearance. ❤❤❤ Regardless of whether they are main or supporting characters, each one has a distinct personality.
Unlike other books where the male protagonist is an exceptionally powerful prince or emperor, the male protagonist in this book is just a lowly bodyguard. At the beginning, he felt unworthy of the female lead and only wanted to protect her. I haven't finished reading it yet, but I will definitely continue reading.
This is fantastic! The author's writing is superb, the concept is ingenious, and there are so few protagonists who are bodyguards. Love you!
I haven't read much yet, but it's very good. The book has a sense of purity amidst the turmoil. The plot is unpredictable yet somehow tells you everything. The deaths of Cai Xin and Ru Mo were quite sad; the author seems to have written about people we all know. Neither the male nor female lead has a noble background, making the beginnings feel more relatable.
I've rewatched it countless times, five stars! Absolutely five stars!! Soaring high and serene, riding the pure air and controlling yin and yang, An Yang's deep affection and humility are so heartbreaking (only my pillow knows the tears I shed). Everyone says they'd drop it if the beginning wasn't a clean romance, but how could the female lead resist in that situation? Waaaaah, my heart aches for Wanwan, I'm crying so hard! Fishball007's banner will never fall!!!
It's incredibly good! Unlike other novels, it's very unique. The male lead isn't the typical domineering CEO type, but he's very warm and reserved. I love it! I highly recommend reading it; the author writes exceptionally well!
