   Having been a reader for thirty years, I just discovered this book and it's really good. I stayed up until 3 AM reading it. The male lead is a soldier with a powerful background who loves the female lead deeply. They separate due to a misunderstanding, and the male lead pursues her while she avoids him, driving her to the point of losing control. The plot is incredibly addictive. It's super sweet, addictive, and I absolutely love this book!

The craziest thing she's ever done is to find a top courtesan the night she was betrayed by a scumbag. The next morning, she woke up and looked at the man's devilish face, asking, "Do you have a payment code?" The man's voice was cold and deep: "No." "Here, take this bracelet as a tip." "That's too much." "You don't have a payment code, and you think you have too many bracelets, so what do you suggest?" The man pulled her into his arms, casually lowered his head, and whispered something in her ear, scaring Shen Xingli so much that she immediately ran away. It wasn't until later that Shen Xingli realized that the man she had seduced was the infamous Beijing socialite, Sang Muye. Sang Muyi, the head of the Sang family and a business tycoon in Beijing, is known for his eccentric, wild, ruthless, and sometimes violent nature. Yet, this seemingly invincible man was seen, to everyone's astonishment, kneeling on the ground in the pouring rain, holding an umbrella for a girl, half-soaked himself. Looking at her with deep affection, he said, "Baby, I was wrong." Everyone was curious—what kind of girl could make a man like Sang Muyi submit? But no one knew that this girl was his long-cherished dream, the one he dared not touch, the one he had kept hidden in his heart for years. She was also the star he had gazed at from the depths of despair. (A modern romance novel about a wealthy CEO and a virgin couple.)

    [Spoiled and fussy witch x witch hunter who dotes on her] [European-style fantasy + mutual unrequited love + childhood sweethearts with an age gap + love that grows over time + sweet romance + ambiguous tension + happy ending] The book has just started ranking and will rise! · On the last day of winter, Amy awakened her witch powers. She was with Sieg, the witch hunter she had secretly loved since childhood. She used witchcraft on him, secretly, many times. But what she didn't know was that after each time, the witch hunter Sieg's eyes grew increasingly dark. · When Sieg first saw Amy, a group of people were surrounding and comforting her. A little girl who had fallen in a field of purple larkspur was crying pitifully. He couldn't bear to see her like that and stuffed the biscuits in his hand into her hand. Good, she stopped crying. But then, he choked. His father warned him on the spot not to bully Amy, or he would kick his own son out of the house too. Later, he learned that this porcelain doll-like child had just lost her mother—because her father had died. Sieg promised, "Okay, I promise I won't mess with her." One day, as the witch's end approached, Amy began hiding from Sieg, but despite her efforts, she was always found. Cornered in a narrow alley, Amy threw away Sieg's cold witch-hunting gun, stomped on his shoes, and angrily shouted, "A witch hunter's gun is useless! I can throw it whenever I want!" Sieg steadied her with one hand and grasped the hand that was fidgeting against his chest with the other: "Whether it's useful or not, we'll talk about it when we get home..." Amy shook her head: "The witch's end will be madness, no one can satisfy it." Sieg held down Amy, who was trying to escape: "If you have to go mad, go mad in my arms... I'll give you everything you want." [Welcome to the little witch's end, how to hide?]
