   Even the "chasing-back-to-the-wife" scenario has to be intense! I'm extremely lenient with happy endings in stories; in my opinion, being bankrupt, destitute, and reduced to ashes is the best fate for these characters (all their assets go to the female lead). These three are the ones I can accept the most. In the first one, the male lead's second personality takes over, essentially dying. He only appears very occasionally with the second personality's permission, and even then, he has to pretend to be the second personality. To be honest, the second personality didn't really harm the female lead. The first personality was stabbed by the female lead and never experienced happiness; all the good days were lived by the second personality, making him seem like he was working for the second personality. In the second one, I think the male lead's attitude towards the female lead's two identities wasn't well-written. But if I remember correctly, the male lead was injured while working as a doctor without borders, and later, to win back the female lead, he swallowed a necklace, probably vomiting blood. Anyway, this kind of self-destructive behavior is acceptable. I didn't read the beginning of the third book; I started reading from the part where the female lead leaves the male lead and goes abroad. She even registers her wedding with the second male lead overseas, which infuriates the male lead. I recommend it because the male lead gives the female lead over 40 billion yuan, and you can still feel his affection for her later on. This last book seems to be recommended a lot. This one, along with another where the main characters' surnames are Tao and Jiang (I think that's the male lead's surname), requires some mental preparation before reading; they are two truly disgusting and awful characters. I've read many books of this type, and in most of them, the male lead is completely unforgivable. He hurts the female lead in various ways for the sake of the female supporting character. Many are written as if the male lead is cheating, and the level of viciousness in his language and actions is eye-opening. The female lead ends up picking up trash. These few are relatively better.

    ① The male lead orchestrated his wedding with the female lead to entice his first love back to the country. He even planned for his first love to steal the bride, leaving the female lead behind and making her a laughingstock. This is a classic case of the second male lead taking over the role. [Full of laughter] ② On the wedding day, the female lead's younger sister, who is also the male lead's stepsister (so confusing! [Awkward laugh]), calls and pretends to be sick to trick the male lead into leaving. Then the female lead is murdered, and the stepsister tries to prevent the family from discovering the truth. I've only read half of this story, but I guess the female lead will be reborn later. [Eating melon emoji] The first two chapters are a bit disjointed; I don't know if the author is a newbie, but I'll bear with it. [Facepalm emoji] The flaws don't detract from the overall quality; the story is good. ③ The crown prince promised her a lifetime together but didn't keep his word, even though he was forced into it. Also, the female lead is a time traveler, and he doesn't understand her!
