I don’t want either lead to be stupid. I hope the story has a warm, everyday feel. They don’t have to be rich, but there absolutely shouldn’t be any huge misunderstandings between them.

It is a story very close to reality, and the whole process revolves around the male and female protagonists. There is no deputy CP, no boss, and no female competition. All supporting characters serve the male and female protagonists. Some are just the trivial things in life, the incomprehensible style of cow playing the piano, and the daily routines that keep up with current events, such as the heroine complaining about the overlord's chicken figure in the short play, the hero buying gold anklets for her when the gold price rises, the heroine working overtime and staying up late and being forced to wear small shoes by her boss, the hero always taking his work style home to take care of his head and feet, and even going to the infertility clinic... What I want to write is what life is like. I especially like the self-reflection and improvement plan written by the male protagonist, as well as the preliminary research on "improving and upgrading bilateral exchanges". Personally, I think that is the highlight moment of the male protagonist. The heroine is more like a microcosm of many people in life, but she is actually more sober than people in reality. She knows what she wants. Even if she is entangled and aggrieved, it is normal. Who doesn't have ups and downs in life? And the most love must be given to yourself.
The subject matter is relatively new. I have read about the divorce cooling-off period and the wife-chasing crematorium before, which are related to this part to a certain extent. But what makes people feel very real in this book is that Jiayi feels like she is not just because she thinks Director Zhou is so good. She was making a fuss. Although she had had such thoughts, she seemed to understand her thoughts more clearly during a meal with her father-in-law and mother-in-law. In fact, this is how married life is, there are always some unsatisfactory things. These all need to be reconciled with each other. Because they Due to factors such as a flash marriage and being relatively busy at work, I didn't pay much attention to these issues before. This cooling off period can be regarded as an understanding of my own thoughts. It looks very life-like. Maybe it will feel a bit dull when I watch it in the early stage, but it is ordinary. Life, it is also very interesting to find some interesting points in it. The large-scale story is slowly enriching the color, and the characters of Jiayi and Director Zhou are also gradually enriched. I am looking forward to the subsequent development~ The boss in the deputy CP is called Zhou Papi, and his surname should be Zhou, right? If so, Jiayi and her best friend have both fallen into the hands of a person named Zhou [face covering] [face covering]
I entered the game very late, but I am very lucky to accompany this excellent work from 2025 to 2026. It was the first time I saw a book of this type and I was pleasantly surprised. Thinking back to what I watched before, most of them were two people who didn't understand each other arguing and saying "I love you", and they were like glue. Very few people can clearly explain the process of reflection and change. After reading this book, I realized that the process of bringing two hearts closer is tortuous but worth the effort. I hope Dr. Chen and Director Zhou will also be happy in the parallel world. I can feel that the author is getting better and better as he writes. I look forward to the new book!
It's very interesting, I finished it without skipping a chapter. After reading it, I felt a sense of reassurance and warmth. It was very understandable that Chen Jiayi wanted a divorce, and the couple's problems were also very typical. When I saw that, I also asked myself, would I be like Dr. Chen? My answer is that I probably do. So I think the whole story is very down-to-earth, like two living people presented before our eyes. The male protagonist's personality has been maintained very well. Before the change, he was an invincible straight man. After the change, it is not a complete transformation, but the original character will be revealed in the change. The only deviation is that due to the nature of the male protagonist's work and status, they actually have no time to quarrel because they can't see each other at all, hahaha. At last! The author's writing style is very good, and I feel that he is a good hand at writing essays. Everyone can eat it with confidence.
Fei Fei is very good-looking, the male protagonist is like a veteran cadre, a bit straight, but he is considerate of all aspects of life, has no machismo, and is very good to the female protagonist. He is not an ordinary domineering character. The female protagonist is cute and playful, shines when working, and the married life is very easy!
I don't understand why such a good article has such a low rating. The author is very talented and has a rich vocabulary in terms of political thought and theory. It's amazing! Is it the writing secretary of a high-ranking government official who writes for fun in his spare time? Worthy of admiration! And the plot is very attractive. It seems to be a simple description at the beginning, but if you keep following the author's thoughts, you won't feel bored at all. This is also a wonderful thing about this article. The author has put in the trouble, so he must be full marks!
I really liked this book. I was first attracted by the title and clicked on it but didn't read it. Then I met this book twice. I thought it was fate that I must read it. In the end, I couldn't stop reading it. Now I am able to calm down and read the novel slowly and slowly, instead of being restless while reading the novel. This is one of the charms of this book. Very close to real life. Thirdly, it's really annoying to be verbose for your own good, but I cherish it now. I hope that in the future I can have the same happiness and contentment as Jiayi.
In fact, I haven't finished reading it yet, but I couldn't help but comment. I think it's well written, and the story is more everyday, and it feels like it's really happening around me. The images of Director Zhou and Dr. Chen are very three-dimensional [Adoration] [Adoration] In fact, when I first started watching it, I couldn't relate to it when I saw that the male protagonist was 38 years old [laughs awkwardly]. Maybe it's because I've seen too many geniuses in their 20s who became presidents and directors at a young age... This is what real life is like. It can be seen from the author's comments every time that she and Director Zhou, Dr. Chen, are very good friends (I was confused at first, thinking this was a real person in real life [face covering] [face covering]) I think she also loves the characters she writes very much. In fact, I got into this book very late, and this book has already been finished. Every time I read a chapter, I see the broken thoughts written in big letters, and I really regret that I didn't come across this book earlier. I also want to communicate with you [Love] I will continue to read the book [I understand]
Highly recommended. I read it in one day. I haven't read a novel for a while. I can't find anything interesting to read. I opened a book today and it gave me a surprise. The emotions are written very delicately and the plot is very smooth.
I rarely see books that I really like on Tomato. When I saw them in Shuhuang, I felt that they were very interesting [Blow Kiss]. After reading them, I thought they were really good. The writing is super good and the writing is smooth and flowing. My mother said that after getting married, we will live together as a couple. I love it so much. Hee hee hee. The heroine has an independent baby. Occasionally, she will show off to the hero. She really goes to the hospital to work. After get off work, she really just goes home and takes a shower. It's all about strong willpower. The male protagonist is a veteran cadre and very realistic. In that kind of working environment, more work and less talk develops the male protagonist's character and psychological activities, but he doesn't change his face when the mountain collapses. [Thinking] Beibei's best friend is also super funny, like a little pistachio (I haven't finished it yet, I am afraid that I will be short of books after reading it. [Thinking] Why is the rating of this book so low, I have read other books that are not good, but the rating is so high, it's strange)
