She's incredibly popular, but a bit emotionally oblivious, while the male leads are both love-obsessed. ✨In the second book, the female lead appears carefree and a bit dramatic, but is actually somewhat world-weary, living life to the fullest if possible, otherwise letting go. This is more of an ensemble piece; the female lead's team is the strongest, while the male lead's team is the most handsome and capable, though not as strong as the female lead. The male lead also cross-dresses, is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and dotes on the female lead.

Both the male and female leads are strong, with two climaxes. The female lead is straightforward. Note: The ending feels somewhat rushed.

    ① The female lead is gentle, always smiling, and incredibly charming, but in reality, she doesn't understand love. She's a ladies' man, untouched by any romantic advances, a consequence of her upbringing and personal experiences. The story is still very enjoyable! ② The female lead appears innocent on the surface but is actually a cunning fox—her character is incredibly captivating! She's strong, but she's always pretending, waiting for the right moment to fully reveal herself! The male lead is also very strong and offers some redemption. I'd give her 5 stars!
