    I really read the first book six times!!! Anyway, I personally think the first book is really, really good. It is the first ancient Chinese book I have read. I don't understand why so many people hate it in the comments. The second book is not about double cleansing. Sisters with mysophobia should read it with caution, but it is actually quite good. The third book is also very good. The male and female protagonists work together to solve crimes and have extremely high IQs. Books 4568 are all a bit plain and sweet, without too much ups and downs. The seventh book is three brushes, so you will definitely not lose money if you enter the pit. These books are all sweet, not cruel! (Maybe some parts of the second book are a little bit sad...) Don't worry, everyone, I highly recommend the first, third, and seventh books.
