I really want to see how the female lead takes control later on, and I want to see the male lead's "chasing after his wife" saga. I hope the "chasing after his wife" part is long; if it's too short, I'll give it a bad review.
This book tells the story of two people who marry for the sake of their families' interests. The female protagonist marries to protect her family's company, hoping to seize control through the marriage. The male protagonist's family, on the other hand, marries to take over her company. Fortunately, the female protagonist is clear-headed and rational, always wary of the male protagonist.
This book left me with mixed feelings. To be honest, I really liked the female lead; she's excellent, kind, capable, and incredibly shrewd in business. However, I didn't really like the male lead. I felt he wasn't good enough for the female lead. While it's understandable that he fell for her, his character, frankly, is very realistic but flawed.
The two are locked in a battle of wits and courage, feigning indifference while secretly guarding against each other. Although the female lead is temporarily at a disadvantage, she is truly strong and gentle. However, I wouldn't recommend this to readers who can't handle even the slightest hardship, because there's no such thing as unconditional kindness or love; I believe this is the norm. It's over. A very logical ending, a very realistic ending.
This is an exceptionally good novel; I wanted to read it in one go! The rating is too low! It's not a one-sided domineering CEO or a strong female lead, but a perfect match, two outstanding individuals. Both the male and female leads are strong, independent, and love themselves and others—they're truly perfect.
It's so good! I didn't skip a single chapter. It's exactly the kind of book I like, meeting all my requirements. Strong male and female leads, both from good families, they're evenly matched, and the limited screen time for supporting characters is perfect for me. Initially, neither of them really cares about the other; the female lead is in a weaker position in the marriage.
I fell in love with this book from the very first chapter and couldn't help but read it to the end in one go. All the characters are fascinating, especially the female lead—a seemingly naive but incredibly powerful young lady. The story clearly shows her growth throughout, and the romance between the male and female leads unfolds smoothly and naturally.
Strong male and strong female leads, the female lead is very charming, it's no wonder the male lead is attracted, and the big-eared, braying donkey is so cute! The workplace dynamics are well-written, and seeing the professional books on equity finance on the author's bookshelf shows dedication, adding to my positive impression...
The female lead's career storyline is well-developed, with a good balance between her career and romance. The female lead's character is very nice, and the story is excellent! It's not just empty praise of her abilities; it's supported by real events. I really want to see the next installment.
I think it's a very, very good novel. Although it's somewhat idealistic, the female protagonist's unwavering stance from beginning to end made me realize the power of women. As long as you respect yourself and have your own principles, you won't be disrespected. When will we usher in such an era? That will be true equality.
