It's great! Both characters have feelings for each other, but neither has confessed. The male lead's concern is hidden in the details, and although his words can be hurtful at times, he doesn't even want to admit his jealousy. Overall, it's still very good.
February 26, 2026, the tenth day of the first lunar month, at 4:13 AM. The best Pei Zhoushi, the best Song Letang, the most adorable Pei Zhile, the best He Jiahui, the best Pei Dad and Pei Mom. Jiahui, may you be happy in another world, far from the torment of illness, and reunited with your parents.
It's so good! Author, please update soon! I love how the male lead is so attentive to the female lead's emotions and understands her sensitive and proud personality, protecting her self-esteem. Taking it slow is great! I really like this kind of realistic yet bittersweet story. But there's one thing I don't understand: why is it that after ten years, the male lead is only now starting to care more about the female lead? It feels like such a long time! 🥺
It's a good read! This kind of bittersweet story about unrequited love is so enjoyable. I just can't wait to see the heroine get pregnant and run away! Author, please update soon! I want to see Zhou Shi's journey to win back his wife! 😆😆😆😆😆😆
This book is really good! First of all, I love the names of the male and female leads; they sound so nice. Secondly, although the male lead has a sharp tongue, he's actually warm-hearted despite his cold exterior. Also, the female lead's character is very well-written, and the inner monologues of both leads are beautifully depicted.
It's really good! The opening scene was amazing!
At first, I thought the male lead was a bit odd, wondering why he was tormenting the female lead so much. But later on, I realized he had his own reasons. The details between the two characters are also very well portrayed, capturing the push-and-pull dynamic of unrequited love. Could the author please write faster? Ten updates a day would be much better!
It's good, even though I only saw two mute people.
Overall, it's a great read. I was captivated in the morning and finally finished it in the evening! The emotional turmoil between the male and female leads is well-written, but the later episodes were so sweet that I wasn't fully immersed! One thing I'm really curious about is Chi Xie; I want to know exactly when she and the female lead became acquainted!
I must say, the writing is indeed very good.
