Any tragic romance is fine, but preferably one where the male lead suffers. I'll say it three times because it's important!

Looking for a Story Where the Heroine Has Given Up and the Hero Grovels to Win Her Back, Miserably and to the Bitter End

I Really Need Ancient-Era Romance Novels Where Both Leads Have Only Ever Been with Each Other!!!
I mean, if everyone writing historical romance is already setting their stories in fictional worlds, why can’t they write a story where both leads have only ever been with each other?!?! How am I supposed to survive when that’s all I read?!?! Please, I need a couple who are each other’s first and only, a couple who are each other’s first and only, a couple who are each other’s first and only!!!!! I’m begging you 😭😭😭

Looking for a Historical Romance Where the Male Lead Gradually Falls for the Female Lead
A super satisfying story where everyone gradually treats the female lead better and better. No naive, sweet, silly female leads.
Looking for Novels Where the Hero Forces the Heroine to Marry Him
Contemporary romance, marriage first and love later.
The Male Lead Doesn't Like the Female Lead at First and Even Sets Her Up With Someone Else, Then Regrets It Later
A little angst is fine, but ideally the hero should have to grovel to win the heroine back later. I don’t want stories where he’s only slightly nicer to her and she forgives him right away. Modern or historical romance are both fine!
Newcomers, Beware: You’ve Entered the Advanced Book-Slump Zone
Please, talented authors, bless us with some books.
The Male Lead Is Cold at First, Then Has to Beg for His Wife Back
Any stories where the male and female leads start off at odds but gradually fall for each other? ♡ (1. I don't like heroines who are too weak and have no opinions of their own, relying on the hero. I want both leads to be awesome. 2. It's also fine if the heroine transmigrates in later on!) Please recommend some, ladies! ♡•ᴗ•

Excellent! The writing is smooth. The daughter is adorable, and based on the current chapters, the female lead's character is quite good. As for the male lead, he is strategic and has a high social standing, but he is a deep and reserved person who is not good at expressing himself. Actually, some readers don't need to criticize him so early. Novels always have foreshadowing and build-up, and there should be changes and corresponding developments in the later plot.
So good! 😍 My little daughter Tangtang is so cute, and the female lead is so beautiful and smart. I'm looking forward to the male lead's "chasing after his wife" moment!
Objectively speaking, the female lead's personality is still rather weak in the early stages, and her situation is quite pitiful—a powerless and unloved concubine's daughter and second wife. I suggest skipping to chapter 60, where the "stepson's" true identity is revealed, the male lead begins his pursuit of her, and the female lead becomes more assertive, making for a more enjoyable read.
So far, the plot has developed clearly and logically, the characters are well-developed, the author's writing is fluent, and the characters are well-developed. Both the male and female leads are very individualistic and thoughtful. The female lead is not simply submissive but rather gentle yet strong, insightful and wise.
It's quite well-written. 🥰 The low rating is probably because there aren't many chapters released yet. I'm asking you, only 93 chapters? How can that be enough? So, author, please update faster!!! More updates!!! (I'd like to read similar stories; I hope someone can recommend some.)
No, what happened? I was really getting into it! Please update soon, author! A-Yuan absolutely cannot get along with Xie Qingyu so easily. First, fix his mouthy habit and make him suffer a bit! ❤️❤️❤️
😭😭😭😭If I could exchange a little blood for Madam Shi's safety, I would have no regrets. Even if Madam Shi never loves me again, I would still be willing, as long as she is safe… I really loved this book. The clear-headed female protagonist, the male protagonist who relentlessly pursues his wife, and the rich array of other characters—the details and character descriptions are exquisite.
Actually, many places are really inexplicable.
The female protagonist, due to precognitive dreams, protects her daughter and herself by unraveling a series of conspiracies, each more intricate than the last, making for a thrilling and captivating story.
Holy crap, this is sooooo good! I started reading before bed and read the latest chapter in one go. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the story. It's almost 1:30 AM now, oh my god!
