Highly recommend!!! The main couple has a bit of a bickering-lovers vibe. The female lead initially pursued the male lead because she thought he was handsome, but he didn't express his feelings much. However, he eventually got fed up and asked the emperor for a marriage decree. The female lead then realized her own feelings, and their marriage was incredibly sweet, both before and after.
I was initially drawn in by the title, and after reading it, I followed the updates daily. The author's characters are vividly portrayed, making them three-dimensional and lifelike. Through the author's words, I felt as if I were experiencing a visual feast, with imagery rushing to my eyes. Every female character in the book (excluding the villains) is so clear-headed and independent.
Seriously, this is the author's second book. I've been following it since the first one, and it's really good. I also love this style. Keep it up! I believe in you! [You savor it] @
I love this pure ancient romance novel! The male and female leads are so sweet, and the pre-wedding storyline is really interesting. Watch as the arrogant older brother embarks on a long and arduous journey to win back his wife. I stumbled upon this gem of a book, it's so good! [Please update more often!][Please update more often!]
Very good ❤. The atmosphere in both the male and female leads' homes is warm and harmonious (excluding the male lead's aunt). The royal family only has one villain, the second prince, who is quickly eliminated; there isn't much palace intrigue or power struggles. It's a very good, sweet and heartwarming historical romance. Main couple: Shen Jiayan & Lu Zhaozhao (A long-planned secret crush)
So good! I've finished reading both of your stories! I also love Zhao Zhao and Shen Jiayan's romance! One is quirky and clever, the other is doting; both seem playful (well, they really are, haha), unrestrained and free-spirited, not bound by many rules—but in reality, they're both very clear-headed, intelligent, and shrewd.
Honestly, it's a really good read. It not only tells the story between the male and female leads but also features many side couples that are very engaging. Each character is also unique, which makes it truly excellent.
This book is seriously amazing! I initially just wanted to kill some time, but it got so addictive. Every couple in the book is so adorable. Zhao Zhao and Prince Shen are especially sweet; their love is unconditional and mutual. Every couple in the book ends up together, and the villains get their just desserts. Every woman has her own personality, is independent, courageous, and resourceful.
It's a very good story. The male lead has been plotting for a long time, hoping that Zhao Zhao will be just like him, and that they will grow old together without regrets. The supporting couples are also very interesting, don't miss it! 🥳🥳🥳
Beautiful 🥰🥰 I love this sweetness. I never expected to have read another book by the same author; both are absolutely amazing! 👍👍
