   This one! The low rating is probably because not many people read it. I've caught up with it now. It's a campus romance, super good, and there aren't many side couples. I don't really like reading stories with too much side couple content, and there isn't a particularly devoted male supporting character either. I also don't really like seeing a devoted male supporting character in a pure romance. I won't spoil too much. The second one is a workplace romance, also very good, and similarly doesn't have many side couple lines (I think). The male lead in this one is really great, and I feel so sorry for the female lead. The female lead's illness is related to her family, but I don't think her mother is stupid or evil; she just doesn't know how to express herself. These two are ranked equally in my heart. So far, this is the best male-redeeming-female romance I've found on Tomato Book. I hope to find others [heart emoji]

    Having been repeatedly slapped in the face by second-hand games, and with my penchant for spicy and pungent writing, these are some of the few books that didn't cross my mind. The first two basically crushed a bunch of mindless, low-brow "romance" novels written by incompetent authors like Tomato. They perfectly demonstrated that even without resorting to clichéd, lazy, and overly detailed descriptions of the male lead's various handsome appearances, one can still write one or even several perfect romantic storylines, even giving me the feeling of playing a visual novel. The third book was unremarkable, but very comfortable to read, nothing special. The fourth book had a very standard Japanese light novel feel; the writing style, humor, and descriptions of love triangles were all classic. But classics are classics because they are loved 🤓👍 The first hundred or so chapters alone made me smile like a proud aunt multiple times. The last time I enjoyed it this much was playing a Smee game. The fifth book fit the concept of redemption, but after the redemption, the romantic development was just average, dragging on and on.
