I’m a hardcore female-lead fan and can’t handle much angst. No putting the female lead through pain, and no making her suffer in the early chapters. A true heartthrob doesn’t need to win people over. A gorgeous, sweet, slightly clueless beauty would be ideal.
Looking for a Book Where the Female Lead Falls for Her Brother's Friend
Please recommend stories where the female lead has a crush on, or openly loves, her older brother's best friend.

What’s Your Number-One Campus Novel?
I can't find a book! I vaguely remember the female lead reporting to a new school. Her exam scores were the same as the male lead's, so their names were both at the top, or maybe highlighted in gold! Their names also went really well together!! If you know it, please tell me! And while you're at it, I'd love some other recommendations too!!

Happy New Year everyone, I am using this new pit to wish you all a Happy New Year! I wish you all good luck, good health, peace and joy in the Year of the Dragon, good fortune, and good luck in the New Year! This is the first time the author writes a campus article. There may be some plots that you don't like, but it doesn't matter. If you don't like it, just delete it. Please don't leave negative comments. Thank you, thank you! In addition, thank you to the readers who have given positive comments. Your encouragement is the motivation for my efforts. The author is also working hard to grow. I hope that I will write better and better in the future.
"No matter what kind of life you face, if you plant flowers in your heart, your life will not be barren." "When you recite words, Alaskan cod are jumping out of the water; when you are doing math, Pacific seagulls are fluttering over the city; when you are reading at night, the polar circle nights are scattered with colors. But don't worry, when you are working hard for your future, those scenery you think you will never see in your life, and those people you think you will never meet in your life are coming towards you step by step." "Every day of burning the midnight oil to read is worth remembering, and every persistence and hard work means growth. We must believe that all the sweat will not be wasted, and all the efforts will eventually pay off." "Before dawn, darkness is the only way to go. If you want to pick roses, thorns are inevitable. The eagle spreads its wings, and weakness is synonymous with it." Super pretty! ! Sweet love and inspiring high school life! The author's writing style is superb!
The peace talisman is Chiyu's wish for Lingyuan. The friendship between young people is as clear as day. The world is passing by, but the front will eventually respond with tenderness. The enthusiasm of the young man will last until death. Each character is very fully created. In the author's writing, they are all flesh-and-blood real characters. No matter which pair of CPs are taken out individually, his story line is complete.
I have to say it's really super good. I've read many novels, but this one completely satisfied my youth's fantasy about my boyfriend. Underneath the boy's high-spiritedness is his fragility. My emotions were ups and downs as I read it. I even cried while reading some parts. I felt very moved. I gave this book my first review.
The writing is very good, and the ending I really feel is the best one among all the novels I have read. The bird is nostalgic for the old forest, and the fish is thinking about the old Yuan. Chi Yu and Ling Yuan will definitely be happy in parallel time. The friendship between the 10 of them is indestructible and they will get better and better. It's definitely not a loss to invest in the stock. Family, let's add some bookshelves.
This is the sweetest novel I have ever read. Can the author please update more?
It's good-looking and the boy's passion always makes people's blood boil~
From the campus to the wedding dress, the male protagonist is very doting and sweet, giving the girls a sense of security. The heroine is sober and independent, dares to love and hate, and can deal with her mother's partiality and distrust easily. The two people go in both directions, there are no other messy emotional disputes, the friends are also very good, and they all gained their love. It is a very good book, highly recommended.
The concept is novel and interesting, the plot is lively and lively, and I like the character of the heroine Chi Yu. It is a unique campus youth sweet pet story. The writing style is fresh and beautiful. I would like to support the author with five stars~
It's very interesting. I like the love between Chi Yu and Ling Yuan very much. Although they are young, the two recognize each other and like Ling Yuan's family very much. They will not object just because they are young. Bai Yang, in fact, she also loves Chi Yu, but she chose to give up on Chi Yu in her new life. She has not seen Chi Yu in more than ten years. Partiality is normal. We just have God's perspective and see that she prefers Liang Zixuan. But isn't partiality normal? She has left Chi Yu for a new life. She did not go to the station to pick up Chi Yu in order to be with Liang Zixuan. How could she be a real bowl of water just because she has not seen her daughter for more than ten years?
