   This book is entirely angst-filled. The male lead is a top-tier, insane, and obsessive-compulsive man who is unknowingly in love with the female lead. He torments her physically and emotionally in the early chapters, controls her precarious father, threatens and intimidates her, and uses his love for her sister as an excuse to avenge her death at the hands of his lover. It's a story of a substitute, repeatedly bringing the reader to tears and despair. The female lead is incredibly pitiful, and the later chapters feature a dramatic, heartbreaking chase after her.

You can check your bookshelf or search for it to see if you can find it. This is the most heartbreaking one I've ever read. I kept reading and crying, haha.

He can't carry heavy loads, can't fight, gets out of breath after walking three steps, and risks dying from exhaustion even climbing stairs. He was also equipped with instruments to monitor his heartbeat, various positioning devices, and even a sedative collar around his neck. Everyone else in the organization considered Chihara Nozomi a high-level experimental subject, a piece of trash about to be discarded. Chihara Nozomi himself thought so too, calmly awaiting his death. Until two undercover agents entered the organization, accompanied by a voice in his mind… [This is a world without regrets, a world you deserve.] However, having been forced to save countless worlds, and having been a savior with countless tragic ends, Chihara Nozomi only wanted to escape by dying. Yet, time and again, he was saved, those people softening their attitudes, sheathing their claws, coaxing him to take medicine and undergo examinations with gentle tones. Even the world's consciousness repeatedly defied its laws to save him, just to atone for its sins. Seeing this, Chihara Nozomi smiled and jumped out of the window without hesitation, escaping death. He didn't know that his every move was being broadcast live, drawing clashes from the readers. He didn't know that the world he inhabited was the most perfect world in everyone's eyes, nor did he know how many hearts were broken by his actions. Chihara Nozomi: You've played the savior enough, you've saved people, and this world is the most perfect world, so let him quickly fake his death.
