    Lin Qian, a "puppet" trained from childhood to be a perfect socialite, tears off her shackles as she counts down the days to terminal cancer. From docile and forbearing to sharp and assertive, every step of her transformation is filled with a raw and real sense of blood and tears. Fu Yuchuan, seemingly a cold and aloof heir to a wealthy family, gradually glimpses a repressed connection with his wife's erratic behavior. Their relationship evolves from a bond of mutual benefit to a test of their souls, a push-and-pull of emotions without the fleeting, passionate love of a typical adult romance, only the restraint and undercurrents of the adult world. Author Han Dabai uses delicate everyday details to build the flames of their burgeoning romance—a series of subtly pointed dialogues, silent acts of protection—peeling away the cold veneer of their arranged marriage to reveal two wounded yet still yearning-to-be-understood hearts.

    Honestly, reading this book was incredibly exhilarating! My empathy is exceptionally strong. You absolutely must read it carefully, don't skip any foreshadowing. There are so many plot points that sometimes brought tears to my eyes. This book isn't just a mindless, feel-good story; the profound themes and various emotions it portrays are truly moving. The author's overall vision is also very grand. I don't know how to describe my feelings; my writing skills are too poor. But it's definitely worth reading. I've read other people's reviews, and I think the Japanese storyline isn't awkward at all, nor is the romance. While the protagonists' own love story might have some shortcomings—like why the two of them fall in love—it's not about whether there's a reason or not, but I feel that having it is the best. It might be immature at first, but their love later becomes incredibly touching, making the story complete. If it were just about leveling up and fighting monsters, without the descriptions of these interpersonal relationships, I wouldn't feel it was as perfect. The various emotions between the characters in this book resonated deeply with me; love, friendship, and even the sense of righteousness are all very pure. The love between Yu and Er is particularly well-written; I can't fully express my true feelings. You absolutely must read it!

    High-scoring, single-female-lead, realistic romance novels – these three perfectly fit your criteria! I especially recommend the second one; it features an age gap – the male lead is younger than the female lead, who is his neighbor. Through a chance encounter, the male lead falls instantly in love with her and embarks on a relentless pursuit. However, the female lead feels the age difference is too great and remains unwilling to accept his advances. Will they ultimately be able to be together?
