The Hero Is a Clean-Cut Good Student, but Changes After Breaking Up with the Heroine
The male lead used to be an exemplary student and dated the heroine. After she broke up with him, she went abroad, and he turned into a playboy, though he still loved her. I'm looking for a reunion-after-years story.
Broken Up and Reunited, With the Male Lead Suffering!!
The story should focus on what happens after the couple reunites. No stories where they break up halfway through and then get back together. The male lead should be the one who suffers. The female lead can be hurt by her family or friends, but never by the male lead!! The two can have misunderstandings, though, and the female lead can go through a little hardship at most!!

Recommendations for Ancient or Modern Stories Without a Virgin Couple, for a Change from Reading So Many Stories with Chaste Leads
Ladies, please recommend historical or modern novels where the couple aren't each other's firsts. Completed stories preferred, completed stories! I've read too many books where they are each other's firsts and want a change of pace. Thanks, ladies!
I'm Out of Books! Recommend Stories About a Player Male Lead Who's Slept Around!!
I want to read something similar to Miss An, Your Fishpond Has Been Dismantled by a Big Shot. Does anyone else understand? Recently, I have been enjoying stories where the male lead is not sexually inexperienced. A prodigal son turning over a new leaf really gets me.
Campus Romance: A Rich, Wild Playboy and a Cool, Aloof Heroine!!
The Male Lead Is a Rich Young Master, and the Female Lead Is a Sweet but Clear-Headed Girl. School Romance!
Preferably, the male lead pursues the female lead, and they must separate at some point. I do not want it to be sweet the entire time ❌ Give me some angst!!

A College Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf! The Male Lead Comes From a Wealthy Family and Used to Spend All His Time at Bars!
Something like "What?! The Neighbor, Lu Shao, Is Actually the Kids' Dad!" The male lead should have never dated anyone before! The female lead should be the sweet, well-behaved type, and she should have a brother who initially disapproves of her relationship with the male lead. Bonus points if the brother has a romance of his own!
School Romance, with a Secret Crush Starting in Middle School! Ahhh, I Love These So Much!

It avoided all my triggers and even suited my taste, it's really super good! It breaks away from all the clichés and the plot is so good it's beyond perfect. The only downside is that the author updates a bit slowly, and I almost forgot about the previous plots, but that doesn't stop me from liking it and still looking forward to it! 🥰
It's the kind of writing style I like, why isn't it updating anymore? I wasn't paying attention, I thought it was finished, what a shame 😢
The theme is quite novel; it's a redemption story. Xu Jiayi deserves it! Why should Shi Xing have to pay for it? What did she do wrong? I really like our male lead, Duan Siyu. I love seeing prodigals turn over a new leaf. A woman who can make a playboy settle down must be extremely pure. I'm looking forward to the sparks they'll create and their unique love story. Our Lian will definitely be a good girl too. Go Jinzi! I want to see the catfight after they're discovered!
I predict this book will be a hit; if it becomes a hit, I'll come back to fulfill my vow.
Waaah, author, please finish this chapter! It's so good! I love both the male and female leads. The female lead is smart and clear-headed, and the male lead is deeply devoted and loyal. The male lead had to separate from the female lead because of family reasons, and I can't imagine how they got through those six years apart 😢.
It's a good watch. The male lead is very affectionate and doting, and the female lead is very thoughtful, gentle yet sharp. I wonder if her mother will be the final straw that breaks her back later. They might still separate in the end, since the male lead's family won't easily accept her.
I hesitated for a long time, but even though it's a serialized series, I decided to read it anyway, and it's really good! 🤭
I don't know why so many people are criticizing the male lead later on. I just want to say that the relationship between the male and female leads is so beautiful! We're watching from God's perspective, but not from theirs. I think the male lead is a really good person. The female lead is also incredibly good; she's done so much for him and loves him deeply.
Overall it's great, but the updates are a bit slow. I saw the author mention preparing for a wedding and having a job, which is great. I really like it; the male and female leads don't drag things out, and problems are resolved promptly. The female lead's growth is really nice, and the male lead is a very normal guy.
It's so good! I started with "Gathering Roses" recommended by a friend, then read "Wild Grasses" and then followed this book on and off for over a year. The author's writing is superb. It's a great stress reliever for students preparing for the college entrance exam!
