   Reader note

   The first novel, featuring a clean-cut, single-female protagonist and a focus on gemstone gambling and appraisal, is a realistic professional fiction. The writing is good, the professional knowledge is realistic, and it features a single female lead, though her role is limited. Several female supporting characters have ambiguous relationships with the male lead. The male lead is a lecherous character who gets aroused by every woman he sees, a bit of a "player." Fortunately, he's purely lustful and never cheats or crosses boundaries with the female supporting characters. The second novel features a female lead much older than the male lead, and also has several female supporting characters with whom she has ambiguous relationships. In the end, they all remain single and refuse to marry—a truly toxic aspect. Ignoring this, it's still quite enjoyable.
