Damn, Does Tomato Novel Really Have No Brooding Puppy Boys, Male-Obsessed Types, or Ghostly Men!?
A “heavy-love” guy is a man whose feelings are overwhelmingly intense, to an extreme degree. It’s a little different from a yandere. Please don’t recommend stories about devoted wives, okay? Okay.
Please, I Want to Read About Someone Powerful Bowing Their Head for Love, Not Being Cursed Into It
I want to read books like "The White Moonlight Is Done with This!". I want someone with a personality like President Fu’s. I absolutely love him, please! It’s so, so good. I really want someone with a personality similar to President Fu’s.
Seeking High-Quality Historical Romance, No Transmigration, Rebirth, or System
I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).

Super good... I came from the author's new ongoing book, thinking I needed more reading since it wasn't finished yet, so I checked out the older work. I didn't expect it to be this good! The part where the female lead wanted freedom and to return to the modern world, but the male lead wanted to cling to her and wouldn't let her go, was especially heart-wrenching. The ending was so novel...
I'm giving the author 5 stars because I really enjoyed another book, *The Blind Prince*. This one has a very interesting premise; I came for the foxy female lead and the eccentric male lead, but I prefer Prince Ning, the uncle who actively pursued homosexuality and wanted to be his mistress.
This is a fairly mature book, and I personally love books that delicately weave together emotions, which this one perfectly embodies. Sometimes you can see the author's inexperience, but overall I think the book is quite perfect. The characters are clearly defined, and the emotions are genuine (oh my god, I absolutely love this kind of thing!).
I discovered this novel when I was experiencing a reading slump and read it until 3 AM, almost wanting to finish it all in one night. I rarely read novels with the "woman disguised as a man to become emperor" theme, but after reading the synopsis, I felt it was quite to my liking, and I'm so glad I clicked on it.
I skipped through parts of it, but it was quite good. The male lead has a mental illness, and the female lead is physically weak. The female lead's physical weakness is one of my favorite elements, so I personally really enjoy reading stories like this. However, the male lead's love is suffocating; I think even a modern person might find it unbearable.
OMG... ?!! My hair! No way... ? Huh?!! Hey, hey, the female lead went back... ?!! Ahhhhhh, my hair is so unexpected but so exciting, ahhhhhh... ?! What about Tang Jinghe in ancient times? Oh my god, but it's really good! April Friend, who are you?! It's amazing, so delicious... And I came from another book, OMG, so amazing... April Friend, I will always follow you...
Please give me a side story, I beg you. Can't we have a happy ending in ancient times? The young imperial uncle hasn't returned, Tang's plans are uncertain, and the male protagonist's half-siblings died in the conflict between the two countries. How will things develop after that? What should we do? The country is in grave danger. What exactly did that dream mean? Did the original owner really marry that person in the past?
I've finally found a gem of an author! I first read their serialized book, which broke my heart, and then I read this serialized one, which is driving me crazy. I really have to say, the author's writing is truly captivating.
Why is nobody reading this? The plot is a bit cliché, but the author writes it quite well. The ending might feel a little rushed, but overall it's logical. I support the author! I like this character design.
The writing is very detailed!! I love reading it.
