    This is a bit angsty for the second male lead, and the female lead is also a bit... First of all, this is a recently completed, highly-rated novel. In the new book, the female lead married the second male lead in her past life, and in this life, she's with the male lead. In the past life, the male lead was the second male lead, who escorted her to her wedding as her brother [crying]. Actually, he liked the female lead, but since she liked the male lead, he didn't bother her. After the wedding, she asked the male lead for a divorce at home, then suddenly fell ill and died. The male lead wasn't home. After being reborn, she is very clear-headed and stays away from the male lead, gradually developing feelings for the second male lead. Actually, many people say the pacing is slow because the female lead really, really liked the male lead in her past life—a secret crush that came true. I believe any girl who has ever had a crush understands that forgetting someone is a long process, right? So, if you don't have patience, you shouldn't read this. I prefer stories that are more delicate, allowing me to slowly ponder and immerse myself in the story; that way, I can easily connect with the characters and feel the emotions. Finally, the important point! The male lead in this life (the second male lead in the previous life) and the other two have known each other since childhood. They all come from prestigious families and have a close relationship. This male lead isn't the domineering, aloof type; he's very polite, well-mannered, and loves to laugh. He's also humorous with his friends. He's not a brainless, violent CEO who resorts to violence at the drop of a hat. When he's drunk with the female lead, he's incredibly cute and clingy. He showed me the true image of a wealthy second-generation heir from high society. (^-^)👍
