A Single Female Lead With Lots of Screen Time, Smart and Never a Burden on the Male Lead
One female lead, with plenty of screen time. She’s clever, not a burden who depends on the male lead. She’s cold to everyone else but sweet to him. Something sweet, in a male-oriented story.

This is fucking amazing!!! This is definitely something our incredibly talented writer, Liulibushisuo, put a lot of effort into. The writing is superb, frequently inserting brilliant environmental descriptions between paragraphs, instantly elevating the atmosphere and completely integrating it into the story—it's simply incredible.
It's worth watching, despite the low rating. While the opening is a bit cliché, the male lead's personality, which isn't like the typical male lead, is quite refreshing. The emotional descriptions are also very delicate, and the small details of daily life are quite heartwarming. The romantic subplot between the homeroom teacher and Kanna Sakurako is also well-developed.
I've finished reading it! It's clear that the author put a lot of effort into writing it. The story between the male and female leads is very sweet and touching, and it's full of a sense of redemption. Keep it up, and I hope the author can create even better pure love stories in the future!
The male protagonist is intelligent after his rebirth, and there are no deliberately disgusting plots like some other female-oriented novels. However, the romance is portrayed somewhat blandly. Although it's said that the relationship between the male and female leads develops gradually, they already know they like each other by chapter 50, which feels a bit too fast.
Overall, the plot of this book is quite good, and the author writes very well. However, I personally feel that the author's writing style falters a bit after around chapter 200. The early plot mainly revolves around their relationship, but towards the end, the romance is essentially exhausted, and the groundwork for the subsequent studio storyline isn't laid well, making their studio storyline…
It's truly a wonderful novel. This is the first novel I've ever actually read. I've read many other novels, but I usually only read halfway through, or skipped through many chapters to finish. This book does a great job of portraying the relationship between the male and female leads, especially the female lead's dependence on and trust in the male lead.
This is a book worth reading; the author's writing is truly excellent. However, the ending felt abrupt. This might be due to my usual withdrawal symptoms after finishing a book, as I always felt that the story of Su and Chen shouldn't have ended. Nevertheless, at least we saw Su and Chen's wedding. Although Su and Chen's written story has come to an end, I wish all readers and authors well and hope that everyone can continue writing their own stories in the book of their own lives!
The plot leans towards a warm and gentle tone, which made it rather boring for me. However, my boredom wasn't due to the plot itself, but rather because the supporting characters failed to engage me. In warm and gentle slice-of-life stories, I only enjoy the interactions between the male and female leads, such as their expressions of affection and playful banter.
It's worth watching. The plot is relatively coherent, and the writing is above average, though the creative ideas might not be particularly original. The characters of the male and female leads are well-developed, and the early episodes, where they like each other but don't confess, are very engaging.
Great! Keep it up! Author, could you add a character who likes cultivating immortality in the university arc? Ahem! The name could be Li Chuyi, hmm… The premise is roughly that he's the King of Han from the Tang Dynasty Immortal Kingdom in the mortal star field of the Qingfeng Great World, who accidentally gets swept up in a spacetime turbulence while traveling through space and ends up in a place called Earth.
