It's good! I finished reading it at two or three in the morning, and I still wanted more. It's similar to The Tenant, but more upbeat and less depressing. Also, the author is too slow; please update faster! 🙂🙂🙂
This is exceptionally well-written. This is my first review on Tomato Reading; I stayed up all night reading the latest chapter in one go. When Yu Yu knelt down, my heart skipped a beat, my nose tingled, and I felt a deep empathy for her. I'm so glad I was able to read such an excellent work on the first day of 2026.
1. The unconventional plot twist hits the sweet spot. Without any cheat codes like rebirth or a system, the male protagonist's penniless start, where he's "picked up" by the female protagonist Yu Yu, feels so real! The contrast of being forced to live together is off the charts—they agree to stay temporarily but are controlled in every way, even forbidden from smoking.
It's somewhat similar to The Tenant, but I don't understand The Tenant's writing. However, this one is quite similar. The character portrayals are very vivid, the descriptions are quite realistic, and the details are also very well done. The writing style is quite elegant, and it belongs to Tomato's top-notch urban romance novels (in my opinion).
It's well-written. Although it has some similarities to The Tenants, I hope it doesn't have a single female lead. I had so many regrets when I watched The Tenants back then 🤦
This is my first book review. The characters are portrayed very delicately, the kind that gets more and more addictive the more you read. The emotional storylines are all deeply depicted, with a touch of angst. The plot is similar to that story about a girl from Qingdao that I read before, and the story is quite realistic.
Having read for ten years, this is the only book that left me deeply saddened. The three female leads are all wonderful, each one more so than the last. The first spent six years with the male lead, giving him everything for love, even helping him selflessly after their breakup when she was sick. I truly loved her.
This is a very good book. In a sense, the author portrays the protagonist's personality poorly, but he is very good at evoking the reader's emotions, which is also a creative technique that I admire. I felt very depressed while reading this book because I was very immersed in it. I read it very carefully.
It's a lighthearted read with a touch of humor and a hint of angst. Reading it is like slowly savoring beef jerky – the flavor grows richer with each bite. It's easy to get immersed in the story, so try reading it late at night. 🤭 /First time reviewing a book/
The author's writing is exceptional; the character portrayals and descriptions of psychology and behavior are profound and insightful, and the foreshadowing is cleverly placed. The male lead is amorous; having read 624 chapters, I can't say whether he's lucky or unlucky, but at least he's luckier than me 😢 Putting myself in their shoes, the emotional ups and downs could drive me crazy 😢😢😢 I was finally starting to forget...
