Any Books Where the Male Lead Buries His Face in the Girl's Neck When He's Feeling Wronged?!
Are there any books where the male lead, feeling wronged, buries his face in the female lead's neck? I want the kind where the male lead has a huge contrast between his different sides!!!
Any Novels That Are Both Angsty and Sweet!!!
I don’t want a purely sweet story, but angst makes me feel awful 😖 Are there any novels with a bit of angst along the way, but definitely a sweet ending?
Angst Stories. Requirements: Torture the Male Lead! Torture the Male Lead! Torture the Male Lead!
Any tragic romance is fine, but preferably one where the male lead suffers. I'll say it three times because it's important!
Possessive, Clingy Male Leads
Any stories where the male lead quietly keeps an eye on the female lead, acts like a clingy puppy, and sometimes gets a little possessive?
A Pathetic Male Lead: “Please Don’t Leave Me”
The male lead loves the female lead devotedly and is a little obsessive, while the female lead feels sorry for him.
The Heroine Is Easygoing, and the Male Lead Grovels at the Highest Level to Win Her Back
The female lead isn't a naive sweetheart.
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.
A Love-Brained Man Is a Woman’s Best Dowry
Stories Where the Female Lead Finds the Male Lead Disgusting and Dirty, Even Though He Isn’t
The female lead should be very highborn, maybe a young lady from a wealthy family. The male lead can be a humble commoner. She looks down on him, and he feels so wronged. Please!
The Heroine Is Strong from the Start. No Coming-of-Age Arc or Clichéd Plot!!!
Strong, Laid-Back Heroine of Noble Status
A Love-Brained, Clingy Male Lead with Two Sides to Him
I've Finished All the Masterpieces. If You Disagree, Come Argue With Me
Cool, Aloof Female Lead × Love-Struck Male Lead!! The Male Lead Won't Take No for an Answer
I'd like something like "Private Kiss". The heroine is poor due to her family circumstances and doesn't talk much, spending every day alone. The male lead either has a secret crush on her or falls for her at first sight. He's flirtatious, outgoing, and a social butterfly, but settles down after meeting her. The male lead shouldn't...
I Desperately Need a Green-Tea-Type, Love-Brained Male Lead Who Cries Easily and Gets Red-Eyed
I want to read something like Other People Throw Mud at Me, I Lie Down and Sue Them for 38,000. I'm looking for a male lead who's great at convincing himself of things, gets jealous easily, is a spoiled little brat, easy to placate, and very green tea. The tag is "drama queen" 😍 I really need stories with male leads like that.
I've Read for Years and Have Refined Taste. Recommend Great Books in Any Genre
The Ex-Husband’s Redemption Arc, with Lots of Jealousy
Any completed novels with a groveling male lead, a female lead with lots of suitors, and a guy who's insanely jealous?
I’m Really Into Stories Where the Heroine Leaves Without a Word, and When They Meet Again, the Male Lead Was About To…
Any stories where the heroine leaves without a word, and when they reunite, the hero acts aloof and arrogant? Then she does even the slightest thing, and his PTSD kicks in because he thinks she’s about to leave again. He breaks down in a second, drops the act, and starts going crazy everywhere.
Please Recommend a Truly Strong Female Lead
So many novels these days dress themselves up as stories about strong women, but the female lead still ends up relying on a man. She starts off handling things herself for a few chapters, then meets a man even more powerful than the original male lead, and after that it's all kisses, cuddles, and being pampered. Quick transmigration stories do it too. I'm sick of it.
The Protagonist Comes from a Powerful Family and Is Its Sole Legitimate Heir
Reborn, Transmigrate to a Matriarchal World, One-on-One, Sweet Romance, Both Leads Pure
Reunited After a Long Separation! The Male Lead Has Never Forgotten the Heroine!
Hehe! You know what I mean, right~
Looking for a Cold, Aloof Female Lead and a Crybaby, Green-Tea Male Lead!
The female lead is aloof and speaks through her abilities. Although she is cold and dislikes expressing herself, she is deeply devoted and proves her love to the male lead through her actions. The male lead is a pure, innocent younger puppy who cries, acts coy, and revolves around the female lead. It must be a strong female lead and a weak male lead. The male lead must not turn the tables on her.
Any Stories Where the Male Lead Cuddles in the Female Lead’s Arms? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

It's great! Tomato rarely has a female lead like this—skilled yet somewhat aloof but also compassionate. The balance of the female lead's personality is perfectly struck. (If she were too aloof, readers would feel uncomfortable; Qi Yan is just right.) The female lead initially kept a low profile for the mission, but she didn't feel stifled or wronged.
I absolutely adore Princess Shen and Sister Yan. Sister Yan has a very powerful background, but she'll impersonate many characters, some from humble beginnings and others from high-ranking ones, for her missions. She's worked as a food delivery driver and even applied screen protectors under overpasses; she sacrificed a lot for her missions.
This is the first time I've seen this type of alternate identity story, and I'm really pleasantly surprised. The female lead's character is so captivating; she's exactly the kind of cool, aloof beauty I've always imagined. She didn't ruin the character at all, I love her so much! I also really like the male lead, but I'm so curious about the story of when the male and female leads first met.
At first, I found it quite unpleasant to watch; I thought Gu Qing was really annoying. The later parts are really good. If you like the idea of a strong female lead and a weak male lead, you can click here. I wonder how the author will write the male lead later on. Will the male lead be made to work harder and harder to be worthy of the female lead? Personally, I prefer male leads who are weak and the female leads who are incredibly strong.
It's a great show, but the male lead is too clingy, which I personally feel (he's a bit of a hindrance). I hope there will be some strong or assertive female leads later on, and that the male lead will mature a bit more 😂, so he can protect the female lead and not be completely powerless.
It's really good! Who wouldn't love a male lead who's both crazy and charming? I especially love the female lead's character; she's amazing—strong and rational, and doesn't make promises lightly because she truly values her word. 💕 It's sooooo beautiful!
It's really good. I love stories where the female lead is strong, mysterious, and seemingly cold-hearted.
It's so good! The male lead is a yandere, the female lead is an incredibly cool and powerful woman, and the male lead really loves Yan Yan. I've been following it for so long! ❤️
This is so good! 😢 I almost gave up because of the ratings, but thankfully the reviews caught my attention and I didn't miss it. I'm sure the ratings will rise later! First of all, the plot is very novel, and the female lead's identity is a completely different story – you could say the male and female leads are reversed.
It's well-written; the female lead is incredibly strong, the male lead adores her, and the plot is very engaging. However, the obstacles between the male and female leads are too great, making it quite tiring to read (I've been enjoying lighthearted and sweet stories lately), so I'm not continuing.
