(Dual devotion / pure-love devotees / no golden finger / absurdly lucky / ensemble-cast style)
As a fervent fan of romance novels, Chu Baolian somehow ends up as a cannon-fodder female side character in a cultivation novel.
She gets close to Wen He, a cultivation prodigy,
keeps supplying him with pills,
and makes a point of showing concern for him.
She does her best, all to find herself a powerful ally.
But she never expected to give him her heart as they spend day after day together.
Wen He was born with a special constitution that left him unable to feel pain, and he was treated like a monster from childhood.
Then one day, he was gravely injured.
Chu Baolian cried so hard she looked awful. He swore it was the ugliest moment of her life.
That day, the girl’s tears made him feel heartache for the first time.
(Mutual unrequited love)
The leads in a nutshell:
Female lead: She seems soft-hearted, but can be decisive in a fleeting moment.
Male lead: Beneath his cold exterior lies a burning heart.
It's clear the author has improved in this book; the plot and characters are both good. I really like this ensemble cast genre; it feels like watching other people fall in love, and it's quite enjoyable. And this author really spoils their fans, haha, there are even extra chapters just for them! Deduct one star first, and see what happens next.
