9 Points or above, I am so moved by the male protagonist's deep love for the female protagonist, childhood sweethearts, and lovers finally get married! When she was a child, the heroine's mother always said that the hero was smart, and would always compare her own children to make her children feel inferior to others, not good or good, and would have low self-esteem. There are many such parents in China, and an unfortunate childhood will change a person's life.
The female protagonist is quirky, often making surprising and eccentric remarks, and is very funny. The male protagonist is calm, has a secret love that he has tolerated for many years, and is domineering. The male protagonist started chasing his wife after returning to China. Although I don't like his appearance, this meeting gift, if it weren't for the male protagonist and the child, he would definitely like to be given an iron job as a sewing machine. I read in the comments that there is an uncut version, so I searched online, and sure enough, a lot of holes have been filled in. It's just not suitable for girls [laughing][laughing][laughing]
Very nice. There is no third party, no all kinds of irritating tensions between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, no suffocating family conflicts, postpartum depression, and incompatibility of views! The main focus is a dedicated and sweet pet! No quarreling! It's easy and comfortable to read! The male protagonist is so good, and there is a best friend next to him who is better than the female protagonist, and there is no plot where two women compete for one man. The heroine is actually not weak herself! I will also encounter a little disgust in human relationships. But she has a strong heart, self-love and self-confidence, coupled with the male protagonist's pampering and protection, her life and relationships should not be too sweet! ~ I wish all the girls in the world will find their own male protagonist who takes them at heart! No matter how far the geographical location is, no matter how long time passes, lovers will eventually get married! ! Come on, author! The writing is very good! [Shy]
Moreover, the author's description of the characters is very delicate, which made me feel as if I could see the interaction between Xiao Ling and Wei Zhouji. This reminds me of "Why is the Shengxiao Silent", which is also a story about love, and makes people feel the beauty and twists and turns of love. "If that person ever appeared in the world, everyone else would just make do with it! But I don't want to make do with it." This classic saying also impressed me deeply. I'm looking forward to the future plot development and see how Xiao Ling and Wei Zhouji will develop their relationship.
Every child can have his own childhood shadow. Those with a strict family tradition feel that they have no happiness in their childhood; those with a loose and carefree family complain that they have no skills; those with careful care despise themselves for not being independent enough; those with independent self-reliance complain that they lack care. This is my favorite passage in the article, and it ends with flowers [note]
The author uses the growth anxiety of "other people's children" as an entry point, and explores the deep themes of native competition and emotional redemption through the bond between Xiao Ling and Wei Zhouji. The article uses delicate writing to describe the protagonist's struggle in the "shadow of the outstanding", and finally achieves self-reconciliation in an intimate relationship. The article breaks through the traditional childhood sweethearts narrative and sublimates the collective anxiety of "other people's children" into a critique of contemporary competitive culture. Xiao Ling's arc of growth from "avoidance" to "acceptance" conveys the healing power of "shadows can also turn into light".
It's short and concise. I can understand the heroine's character very well and think it's very cute. After so many years of repressive education, she still faces the perfect male protagonist who is "someone else's child". Her behavior that everyone calls "acting" is also a confirmation of their feelings for each other. I don't think it is too much and the level is okay. It's common to see female protagonists, but it's rare to see such a responsible and perfect male protagonist [Thinking]
I actually read the unabridged version, so the reading time here is less than 30 minutes. The relationship between childhood sweethearts is really sweet, and the male protagonist's love is deep and even a bit humble (because the female protagonist hated him when she was a child, he didn't dare to express his feelings). We reunited again as adults, and luckily we finally got the beauty back [Love]
It's really invincible and beautiful. Both the male and female protagonists are super proactive, especially the male protagonist. If there is a misunderstanding, he will not keep it. He is also very sexy. ! ! [Adoration][Adoration][Admiration]
It's very interesting. From yesterday to now, I hope everyone who reads this book is as happy as the heroine. Thank you so much.
