Does Tomato Really Have No Real Strong Female-Led Novels?!
I want a career-focused, steadily leveling-up female lead who's strong enough to crush everyone. Why does the male lead have to be stronger than her in a strong female lead story??? If male-oriented novels can have a male lead focused on his career with beautiful women flocking around him, why can't a female-oriented novel have a female lead focused on getting stronger, with handsome men throwing themselves at her?

Period-Era Fiction! Really Good Ones! No Pocket Spaces, They’re Too Unrealistic!
I don't know why, but lately I've been really into stories set in a bygone era, especially ones about transmigration. Transmigrating into a book is fine too. I read one about a soft-hearted freeloader and a green-tea schemer and really loved it. It felt so real, but it's still being updated. Ladies, any more recommendations? No stories where they get a pocket dimension and supplies like a supermarket, though.

A very realistic and true article. Although it's good, it doesn't quite suit my personal taste. There is a hidden female secret between the real and fake daughter in it. I wonder if the poor relationship between the heroine and her family in the previous life was all the fault of the fake daughter? Isn't there a relationship where the heroine's family is biased, condescending, looking down on the heroine, focusing more on interests, and weighing the pros and cons between real and fake daughters? To put it bluntly, the heroine was abandoned by her family again in her previous life. As a result, as soon as the heroine came up in this life, she threw all kinds of blame on the fake daughter. Then he began to express himself in various ways and bring various benefits to the so-called family members. To put it bluntly, it was family love tied up with benefits. At first, I thought the heroine was using "family" as a springboard, but later I realized that the heroine is really disconnected. Emotionally, the heroine acts like she doesn't care about her "family", but behaviorally, she brings resources to her "family". The final result of her various performances is to bring benefits to her "family". In the end, she directly became the heir to the head of the family, and her own interests were directly tied to the interests of her "family" and could not be separated. Moreover, the premise of all this was that the "family" knew that she was deliberately transferred, but they did not go through judicial procedures and did not seek justice for her. The fake daughter still stayed at home as the daughter of the daughter. The heroine is more "love-brained" than "love-brained". No matter who looked down on her before, chose the fake daughter and abandoned her again, in the eyes of the heroine, they are all because they were deceived by the fake daughter, so all the resentment is directed at the fake daughter, which is too frustrating.
Super pretty!!! The heroine is really having fun all the way. This kind of true and false Qianjinwen only feels good if you have to be the head of the family. Being favored by the group is meaningless. Being respected, respected and feared is the most fun. It's so good and I'll love to see more😘
The heroine has a really stable mentality. She has a strong core and is confident. It is clear that returning to her biological parents' home is a springboard, so when she gets along with her family, she feels like that: as long as it does not harm my fundamental interests, I will not refute anything you say. You can't please, you can't alienate.
When my family saw the latest chapter, I really gave it a five-star recommendation! This rebirth novel really jumped out of my stereotype of novels of the same type! It does not focus on the cliche plot of rebirth and revenge, and a house fight with the adopted daughter. The heroine is sober and independent, has a clear understanding of the overall situation, has a career and a life, and has a good personality. She can clearly see the behavior of the adopted daughter. She is not at all the kind of "boring gourd" character who suppresses and aggrieves and makes readers jump. It is so enjoyable to watch! And now it seems that the adopted daughter also has her own little thoughts, and each character is well established and thoughtful. The heroine's career line is laid out very solidly, and it is gradual and not abrupt. She recognizes people accurately and knows how to turn the connections around her into a help, but this is by no means mercenary - her emphasis on love and justice, and having a positive outlook on life are her background, and her shrewdness and kindness are perfectly blended in her. What touched me the most was the Lin family where the heroine lives. As a large clan, the clan has both the vitality of healthy competition and the centripetal force of unity. Everyone sticks to the bottom line. Even if they are fighting for power and gain, they will never harm their fellow tribesmen or violate the law by any means. It truly proves the saying, "If the body is not upright, the family will not be at peace; if the family is not at peace, the clan will perish." Such a clan setting is really well-structured! Anyway, it was the first time I saw it and I liked it very much! The author will continue to update the article! Want to see it!
Personally, I feel that it is really good. It is a rare and steady approach. It is not just for the sake of pleasure. The heroine has always been planning from a macro perspective, not focusing on immediate gains and losses, and only has a grand blueprint in mind. At the beginning, I came here with the mentality of reading a fast-paced and exciting novel, so after reading the first few chapters, I felt that the heroine's actions were a bit slow, too patient, not decisive enough, and did not immediately break up with her parents and brothers. I feel that most of the bad reviews may also come from this, and she will suffer more in the fast-paced era. Looking back, as the protagonist slowly reveals his edge, the plot gradually unfolds, and every time a key node is reached, it will bring a hearty and refreshing feeling. In terms of character, rather than saying that the protagonist is indecisive and like a virgin, it is better to say that she is quite tolerant of most people and can accept the weaknesses of human nature. Human nature is complex and not black and white, so she will not kill everyone who has hurt or neglected her with a stick, and at the same time she will not forgive easily (or maybe she does not care). Before her goal is achieved, she will not easily offend or abandon those who can be used. It is also powerful to maintain her true heart, not blindly seek revenge, and firmly follow her own path. While focusing on interests, the protagonist will not reject the sincere emotions of others. When others treat her sincerely, she will also treat them sincerely. What I admire more is that the author has a wide range of knowledge and his writing is very fluent. He also uses some very common examples to make people understand the knowledge inside and outside the text. Although there are a few places that I still find a little obscure, it is not easy to understand most of them. Being able to express the knowledge you have learned in simple words means that your language skills are profound. When I was tutoring others in their studies, I was worried that it would take a long time to tutor them on what seemed to me to be very simple questions. Later, I discovered that some of the principles that I took for granted may not be understood by others because they may not have been exposed to them. Naturally, teaching them is half the result with half the effort, so clear and popular expressions are really important, which I cannot do myself. Most of the characters in the text are smart people. I usually don't like to think too much when speaking, and I am not very good at analyzing whether there is deep meaning in other people's voices. After all, there is not so much time for people to read and understand in on-the-spot conversations. Most of the time, it is an afterthought. Therefore, the heroine's father looks a bit stupid compared to others, but in reality, I guess he can't compare (laughs). The author who can write these contents is at least half a human being. The only pity I felt was that the score was a bit low. I almost quit the book because of the scores in the first two chapters, but it was the smooth writing that kept me here. I understand that everyone has their own preferences for radishes and vegetables, but I would still feel a little sad if this kind of article was buried. I just write this review in the hope that I can do my best to improve the rating. I have finished following the serialized part, and I can only wait for a while before reading again. I look forward to the subsequent growth of the protagonist. The author must not give up 😢😢😢. Forgot to mention, the feelings of family and country in the article are quite touching. They are not deliberately patriotic, but are revealed in the natural behavior of grassroots workers, scientific workers and other people in various fields.
The author has a lot of knowledge base, and the professional terminology of each knowledge point is used appropriately. What I see is not only the brainless coolness, but also the entire layout and pattern of the heroine. I wonder what the second heroine will be like in the future to become the kind of person who can lead the heroine and others by the nose in the previous life? Looking forward to it
The most surprising thing about this article is that it breaks out of the conventional framework of the traditional true and false Qianjin novels of "competing for favor, fighting for love, and fighting at home", and closely combines the heroine's growth line with "scientific research to rejuvenate the country." The heroine Lin Zhiyao doesn't care about blood and family ties. She stays from the perspective of a bystander. She neither dwells on the Lin family's preferences nor wastes time in intrigues with Lin Weiwei. Her focus is to show her ability to become the head of the family, so that her parents and the entire family can help her climb. Since she was not raised yet, she should use it as nourishment for her rights. She and her adopted daughter are a reflection of "you wallow in the quagmire while I build tall buildings in the clouds." Her focus is not on competing with her adopted daughter for favor, but on her strength so that her parents have no choice but to take a fancy to her. True strength is not about defeating your opponents, but about surpassing your opponents and taking your own path that can achieve greater value. This book is said to have been maliciously rated. It says that the heroine is the Virgin. It is better to say that the heroine's pattern is not understood.
Nice!!! This is my favorite character. I really like this person who always handles things calmly and has everything under his control. It's great. She really looks like the eldest lady of the Chinese nation. The family has devoted all their efforts to cultivate her. Their pride is so similar. They are so similar. They are strong-willed, talented, and smooth in dealing with things. She is super.
It's good-looking, although it's a cliche plot of a real and fake daughter being slapped in the face, but a good author who can give the story passion must have put a lot of thought into it and has a certain personal aesthetic rhythm. I feel great after watching it. Looking forward to the update.
I like this kind of heroine. She has a strong core and won't suffer. She is not timid towards the stupid second brother. She ignores the white lotus fake daughter. She has no desire for family affection for her biological parents. She is the best and strongest version of herself 👍
