The female lead's life is truly tragic; the beginning is quite heartbreaking, but hopefully there's a twist later. The times certainly created tragedies. Ju'er, Feifei, Angel—those girls at the Paramount Ballroom were all victims of their era's tragedy; it wasn't easy for them. We must cherish peace and strive to live well. [KISS]
It's a bit angsty; the female lead's insecure and self-conscious love resonated with me. Sometimes, after experiencing too much misfortune, it's true that you can start to doubt yourself. But the female lead seems very studious and hardworking, so I think she'll grow stronger later on! Looking forward to the next installment! [Upvote][Upvote]
That's what we're saying! I think this is a rare novel by Tomato. The brushstrokes are delicate, the details are meticulous, and the scene is immersive. The immersion is so strong, it's almost like I could jump into the book and yell at the female lead to wake her up. The female lead's early life was incredibly heartbreaking; she was humbled to the point of being insignificant. That really hits home, bro. I think there will be a major reversal later on.
It's so good! I haven't seen such a lovely Republican-era novel in a long time! It's so authentically Republican-era, please give Ruyu a happy ending! 😳😳
This is a really good novel set in the Republican era. The female lead's humble situation is portrayed very realistically. She's just like an ordinary person in our lives. The synopsis says she'll have a comeback later on, and I'm really looking forward to it!
This is really well-written, the characters are vividly portrayed. Ruyu's humble love reminds me of a friend of mine who's obsessed with love, even more so than Ruyu. She's practically reckless, but I also feel that Ruyu has her own ideas and is very eager to learn. I think there will be a twist later on! Looking forward to it! 🤔🤔 Beautiful. 🥰🥰
The female lead's humility is very realistic; she falls in love with a man who is far superior to her. It's truly a story of cautious infatuation. The plot is fast-paced and exciting; once you start watching, you can't stop. [Upvote][Upvote]
The description of Liu Ruyu's humility is vivid, and the character's personality is accurately portrayed. It's a very good novel, superb! 👍 It's getting better and better, and the more I read it, the more enjoyable it becomes!
A very good read, the emotions are portrayed very realistically. Isn't that what relationships are like? You need experience to truly understand them. The male lead is definitely lovable; although he was a bit cold at the beginning, he gave the female lead so much later. It has a bit of an older man/younger woman feel to it! I loved it, I stayed up all night to finish it. 👍👍 Keep it up! 😊 It looks great!
I want to ask who the male lead is? 😳😳
