   So heartbreaking! So incredibly heartbreaking! It's killing me! I cried so much! In the first book, the female lead was an orphan who was taken in by her master. After a few days of relative peace, she was revealed to be nothing more than a kept woman. However, the truth was far more cruel than the forced possession of her body. The more I read, the more heartbreaking it became. Both the male and female leads suffered terribly and cried themselves to death. [Sad] In the second book, the female lead was very clear-headed and intelligent, but she was free and had no one to protect her. Faced with the male lead's bullying, she could only endure it and try to please him. If she hadn't fallen in love with him, she might have had a better ending. But she was so starved for love that the only person who treated her kindly was the one who had bullied her. The male lead also suffered because of a mistake he made in his youth, which he could never escape. The tragic ending was predetermined from the beginning.

As long as it is something he orders, no matter how big or small, he can complete it excellently, even to the extreme. The personal shadow guard also has superb martial arts skills. It can be said that there are only a few people in the world who can fight him to a draw. He is simply the ceiling among shadow guards. However, what he doesn't know is that the personal shadow guard has different feelings for him. It is a homosexual relationship that is not allowed by the world. Years of close companionship, coupled with the Shadow Guard's exceptional talent, intensified He Junyan's possessiveness. He wanted to arrange the Shadow Guard's marriage because 'Achen' was his. However, he recently discovered something was amiss with the Shadow Guard; he had lied to him, more than once. This was unacceptable to He Junyan. But what he didn't expect was that the lie, once exposed, revealed a heart-wrenching identity: a 'medicine man'! Feelings surged within him, and he finally understood his own heart.
