Synopsis

[Brother Complex + Green Tea + Twisted, Brooding Male Lead]

A jade-faced Guanyin sits in the hall, the graceful and radiant Fifth Master

I only resent that the moon hangs so high, yet somehow shines on everyone but me

You treat me so well, Brother. Why can't you treat only me that way?

The Wu family has two sons. The elder, Wu Xie, is as gentle as the waters of West Lake; the younger, Wu You, is a damp, shadowy swamp

I hate it when you talk to other people, smile at them, and when everyone likes you

I hope no one wants you except me

I want all of you. Give me the gift of being loved by you, and I'll offer you everything I have

Xie Yuchen's arrival makes Wu You jealous

But Xie Yuchen is drawn to Wu You's extreme love. The affection-starved boy hopes this love will give him something

“Brother Youyou, could you look at me?”

A young man cherishes a worthy rival. One compliment from Wu Xie makes Wu You turn a cold gaze toward Zhang Qiling

Wu You tricks him into losing, though Zhang Qiling had already conceded long ago

“I only lose to you.”

After all these years, Hei Xiazi is still caught off guard by beauty for the first time

When Fifth Master Xiao smiles, his face is as delicate as a peach blossom, making Hei Xiazi swallow hard

“I never noticed before that beneath that wicked heart was such a tender face.”

Chen Pi takes pride in Wu You. The two are equally cold and ruthless.

But Wu Xie refuses to believe it. He covers his ears and closes his eyes, choosing to believe only the Wu You he has seen for himself

Wu You stands behind Wu Xie with his eyes lowered, looking utterly innocent and pitiful

Wu Xie indulges him, after all, he has his own unspeakable secrets.

The smile on Wu You's face behind Wu Xie is just like that of the black mamba he keeps, named Youyou

Clammy and damp, cold and sickly, like a black venomous snake coiled tightly around Wu Xie

But isn't Wu Xie a venomous snake too? He is just as twisted as Youyou

I've Had My Fill of The Grave Robbers' Chronicles. The Plot Is Too Clichéd. Any New Recommendations?

I'm looking for recommendations for new books. I just want something that doesn't feel too cliché. The plots I've picked out so far all seem terribly formulaic. Also, some novels require you to look closely at the photos, but don't worry about those. They can't post them without photos anyway.

I hope the couple is Wu Xie; these two are really great to ship. One didn't believe her older brother was supernatural, and the other didn't think her younger brother was a bad kid. These two are a perfect match, a top-tier match, a match made in heaven. Lock up Wuyou and Wuxie, I'll swallow the key.

The author's character settings never disappoint! I just finished reading *Little Fish* and immediately jumped into the new book. I'm so excited! I only have one wish: that Wuyou's love interest is Xiaohua. It didn't happen last time, but I hope it will this time. I absolutely love it!

Hmm... The author writes very well, but I personally don't really like it. It seems like Wu You gives all the good things to Wu Xie. While it's nice to have Wu You centered around Wu Xie, I feel like Wu You might not be able to stop Wu Xie, just like the old Taoist priest's prediction. Do I personally like stories where the protagonist gives everything good to another person?

The author's writing still has that familiar feel—a brother complex, with the main pairing leaning towards the younger brother, while the others are ambiguous. I viewed them all as a whole; I think all four of them are great for shipping. And the twins setting means they're each other's only one, that's so cool! Anyway, I'm totally smitten! They're so sweet together, he understands him.

The character of Youyoubao is so endearing... Her emotional portrayal is rich and vivid, and she writes very well about love, family, and friendship. There are quite a few heart-wrenching moments, but the love story itself isn't particularly tragic. The main focus is on the deaths of various well-developed supporting characters. (This actually makes it even more heartbreaking...)

Actually, the book's content is quite good. The main characters and the relationship between Pingxie and Heihua are both quite enjoyable, as is the later character Li Chu. The only drawback is the presence of secondary couples, possibly more than one. Some readers have reminded me that secondary couples frequently appear in the author's other works as well.

I hope the couple is Xiaohua; it feels really appealing. One of them wants everyone else's world to revolve around her, while the other craves love.

Later on, I didn't understand. It felt like poison wrapped in sugar. Was this love or liking? It felt like pure jealousy of Wu Xie. I didn't see the snake-like love for Wu Xie later on. Because love that takes away everyone around you isn't love, is it? It's like the plot of a green tea junior sister framing her senior sister in a cultivation story.

I saw the author promptly added it to my bookshelf (?) I love the setting and the main character! You're great! I really like the teacher-themed stories that balance plot and romance. The brother complex is great, but I also hope Wu Xiaogou feels a bit of a sense of crisis about his younger brother being taken away (pointing fingers). Is it all about relationships?

Great news! I hope there will be a couple (referring to Wu Xie).
