In a Reading Slump: Looking for Fresh, Original Stories That Make an Impression
Any Stories Where the Leads Are Giving Each Other the Silent Treatment, Then the Heroine Suddenly Finds Out She’s Pregnant?
Are there any books where the leads are still giving each other the cold shoulder when the heroine suddenly finds out she's pregnant? I just came across this trope and really want to read it!

A high-quality novel with solid values and excellent writing, one that’s still enjoyable even on the third reread.
A 9.9-Rated Novel Has Appeared!

Any Books So Good You’ve Read Them Three or Four Times? Please Recommend Some
The Hero Hates the Heroine at First, Then Becomes Intensely Possessive
Any genre is fine, including quick transmigration or rebirth. The male lead should hate the heroine at first, then gradually realize how wonderful she is and become addicted to her. When she genuinely starts seeing another man, he should get jealous.
Looking for a Male Lead with Tons of Swagger, Like He Tingzhou!
Looking for books like "Too Much".
Looking for Stories Where He Hurts His Wife, Then Has to Grovel to Win Her Back
The first part should be especially angsty, then the heroine gets her revenge on the male lead.
Are There Any Stories About Getting Pregnant by Someone You’re Not on Good Terms With, or by Your Mortal Enemy?
Looking for books like "After Morning Sickness, I Had to Marry the Father: The Baby Is My Nemesis's". An original premise and frequent updates.
Looking for a Great Book So Gripping I Won't Skip a Single Chapter
Modern romance, with an unconventional plot and a sweet tone (a little angst is fine). No one being reborn, and preferably no mistresses or unattainable dream girls. Most importantly, it has to be complete 😂
The Leads’ Families Arrange Their Marriage, They Marry First and Fall in Love Later, and There’s No White Moonlight
The leads' families arrange their marriage, and they fall in love after getting married. No unrequited first love.
Your Number One Modern Romance
A True Heiress from a Prestigious Family: Smart, Dignified, Good-Natured, and Not a Saintly Doormat
The writing has to be good. I really can't read anything with immature writing.
Comforting Marriage First, Love Later
Looking for a marriage-first, love-later story where the couple treats each other with respect and there's no melodramatic, bitter feud between them. The male lead respects the heroine, making the story really pleasant to read. Nothing like an outrageous domineering CEO story, please. A little angst is fine, haha.
Looking for Great Books Rated 9.8, My Standards Are Too High. Any Genre Is Fine
A Genuine Marriage-First, Love-Later Story: An Arranged Business Marriage Without a Long-Standing Scheme
Looking for books like "Love Addict: Mr. Mu's Priceless Little Bride". I mean a story about the supporting characters Ye Junjue and Qu Qingge.

The male lead has to grovel to win her back. Please, please, I'm begging you!
Share the Stories You’ve Read Over and Over but Still Find Absolutely Stunning
Any Stories That Keep You Wanting to Read More and More? Recommendations, Please!
I’ve run out of books to read lately. Nothing good to read.
Any Stories Where the Male Lead Misunderstands the Female Lead, They Give Each Other the Cold Shoulder, and He Gets Jealous? A Little Angst Is Nice
Modern romance, either a marriage first and love later or a long period of mutual attraction. Happy ending.
I Can't Get Into Anything ˃ʍ˂ Give Me Your Number One Pick!!
A devoted couple! No quick transmigration! The characters' values must be sound!!

It's a good watch, and the character development is especially good, which is my favorite part. The male lead is the epitome of a domineering yet submissive love interest, and the female lead can be both delicate and sweet, as well as aloof and beautiful, capable of handling anything. The changes in their relationship are also very delicately portrayed. However, the scenes with Nan Luo and Shen San weren't really my cup of tea, so I had to skip them...
I've read other books by the author under another pseudonym, Xi Yi, which also tell stories about girls from the Nan family, including Nan Ci's story. They were very good, witty, and interesting, and also sweet stories of arranged marriages that blossom into love. This one is also great; you won't regret reading it!
The male lead gets slapped in the face repeatedly! There's no angst throughout, perfect for those who enjoy sweet stories. The female lead has a good temper, but she's not the type to suffer in silence; she has the air of a well-bred lady. Overall, it's definitely worth watching!
I love the female lead's gentleness, the male lead's arrogance, the female lead's personality, the relationships between her sisters, and the way the male and female leads interact. I really like Nan Luo and Shen Lingtan. I'm really looking forward to watching Nan Ci and Pei Chen's love story. Sisters who like this, go for it! 😘😘😘😘😘
I was originally reading another book, but I accidentally clicked on Nan Sheng's story and ended up reading it without realizing it. I had previously read Nan Ci, both of which were captivating, depicting the fascinating lives of the Nan family girls. Highly recommended! [Learned something new]
It's super sweet, with no scheming girls causing trouble. Not only is the main storyline incredibly sweet, but the side stories are just as captivating. Nan Luo and Shen Lingtan are simply amazing! (However, there's too little description of Young Master Fu and Miss Liu; the ending should be happy.)
It's so good! I love how gentle and elegant the female lead is, even when she's angry, she's still graceful and noble. It's really great. The male lead was arrogant at first, but he was later won over by the female lead, which was so sweet. I also love the couple Shen Lingtan and Nan Luo. Shen Lingtan whispered, "Mrs. Shen, I'll back you up from now on, okay?" Nan Luo blushed, but boldly agreed, "Okay!"
It's so good! Flirting This is definitely a sweet romance novel! Even more alluring than Fifth Sister's book! I love this style! Go for it, big brother!
It's so good! I really hope the author can release a separate story about Nanluo! ❤️❤️❤️😘😘
The book is quite good, especially the female lead who is intelligent and eloquent. However, a few names were a bit distracting while listening to the audiobook, such as Nan Sheng (male), Fu Moyan (peritonitis), and Nan Zhu (male soccer player)... Hahaha.
