    1️⃣ The female lead is an actress in modern times who transmigrates into a period novel written by her wicked cousin. She quickly gets a job at a theater through her mother-in-law's recommendation, and her romance with the male lead is incredibly sweet! 2️⃣ The female lead transmigrates from ancient times to a rural area in the modern era. The first chapter shows her graduating high school and getting a job at a steel factory through her own hard work. Both the male and female leads have some quirky relatives who mainly drive the plot but don't affect the male lead's romance. It's a great read, highly recommended!

It's a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love. ② This female lead initially wanted to give up, but her abilities wouldn't allow it. The original female lead is her older sister; she only wanted to rely on her sister for support, but the male lead gradually pushed her to the top. ③ The male lead is a bit old, and the double virginity trope seems a bit off, but this old-fashioned male lead slowly falls for her with gentle affection. Aside from the female lead organizing various events, which is a bit unusual, and the 1970s setting with maids, the rest should be okay.
