A Pill to Settle the Heart

The opening was so heartbreaking, it really pierced my heart 🥺 Eighteen's handling of the emotional scenes was so spot-on, our Miaomiao has suffered so much, Eighteen, hurry up and make it sweet 💕 "Eighteen" is truly a professional, moving, and inspiring book! It blends reality and ideals, brimming with patriotism! An absolute masterpiece!

Eighteen's books are filled with sentiment, landscapes, redemption, and healing. They don't dwell on petty romances, but rather carry the nation, the country, and a sense of mission within their hearts. In truth, everyone has both a tiger and a rose within them.

I absolutely adore Shiba's books, from *Don't Fight Me* to *All Settled Up* and *Reassurance Pill*. I've followed them all, and I love every vivid character. Every male lead and second male lead is my type, haha! I'm a player in Shiba's books, falling in love with every guy I meet. It's just that this rating is unfair; this work deserves at least a 9.5 in my heart.

Shi Ba is an excellent author who writes novels with the same solid and rigorous attitude as writing academic papers. The descriptions of human nature are realistic, the plots are full of ups and downs, and the details are vividly portrayed. You can really learn a lot from reading her work. Don't miss such an excellent work.

Keep writing high-quality books, don't let the overabundance of domineering CEO romance novels influence you. Keep writing these kinds of substantial, good books. I especially like the second male lead in this one; he's a tough SWAT officer, so exciting! I hope he finds happiness.

I really like both couples; Xu Kai and Miao Miao are a couple who reconciled after a breakup. The reason for their breakup three years ago wasn't the cliché of being misunderstood because of careless talk. It's true that Miaomiao has a health problem. I feel so sorry for this girl. Because she was suppressed since childhood, she has always lacked self-confidence.

The emotional scenes unfold gently, imbued with a profound sense of patriotism and a strong sense of national responsibility. The author's "writing obligation" is palpable. It's not just a lighthearted read; it offers much food for thought. The power struggles in the workplace and the hardships of life drive the characters' growth, highlighting how resilience is forged through suffering.

This is the third book by Shiba that I'm reading (I can't keep up with the latest installments anymore; I regret not following it more closely. I'll wait until it's all finished before I start again). Shiba's books require patience to read. They depict the workplace, professional life, and interpersonal relationships in great detail, making them very relatable to everyday situations.

All I can say is that investing in this novel for 18 years old was definitely worth it. The writing is excellent, and the author handles the characters' personalities with ease—these are the bare minimum. In the early episodes, Miaomiao's insecurity, stemming from illness and her dysfunctional family, is truly heartbreaking.

I've read the first book, *The Fox*, three times already. Anyone reading this is a loyal fan. I love Shiba's style; her writing is witty and humorous. Having read this far, I roughly know the ending: Xu Kai and Miaomiao rekindle their romance, and Qin Qian and Xi Wang are destined for each other.
