   The first book, which is also quite popular recently, is about two people who like each other, but due to unforeseen circumstances, their relationship doesn't end well. After being separated from the female lead, the male lead tries to win her back, but the female lead, due to some psychological trauma, doesn't have the courage, leading to their eventual separation. The male lead eventually marries and has children (if you're sensitive to this, you might want to skip it), while the female lead, studying medicine, dies in a pandemic. Of course, every female lead has a devoted second male lead, and this book also features a character named Xu Xuanlin. Those interested can check it out; I won't spoil too much. The second book is one I read a long time ago, and thinking about it now still makes me feel regretful. The male protagonist, Jiang Junxi, has AIDS and was ostracized before the female protagonist, Li Poxiao, returned. Her family also didn't want her to have much contact with him. However, the female protagonist stood firmly by his side throughout his final days. Given the AIDS diagnosis, the ending is predictable: the male protagonist dies. He never explicitly told her "I love you," but he mentioned it in the Bible in the school library: one is the sunset, the other the dawn; their relationship was ultimately destined to be unfulfilled. They did indeed share beautiful moments, making both books, in my opinion, quite good. They both have ratings of 9.4 And 9.5, And I personally think they're worth reading. I hope good books can be seen by everyone.

Gu Haitao grabbed Yao Jiajia's hair, roaring, "If I'm not mistaken, you knew you were pregnant when you left, didn't you?" Tears welled up in Yao Jiajia's eyes, and she choked out, "You'll scare the baby." He glanced instinctively at Hanghang on the hospital bed, lowering his voice, "Answer me. You know the consequences if you don't tell the truth." Yao Jiajia dared not hide anything, nodding tearfully. Gu Haitao pinched Yao Jiajia's cheek, his stubble-covered face close to hers, "You've got some nerve, daring to run away with my child?" Yao Jiajia dared not speak, gently trying to free herself from his grasp, but Gu Haitao held her tightly. Finally, she pleaded, "Let me go, it hurts." Gu Haitao released his grip, and Yao Jiajia's face turned bright red. Gu Haitao scolded harshly, "You've really got some skills raising a child like this." Yao Jiajia felt wronged and tears streamed down her face. Gu Haitao continued, "Five years, and you haven't improved at all. You cry at the slightest problem. Wait until Hanghang is discharged from the hospital, then you'll be sorry." Yao Jiajia trembled uncontrollably. At nineteen, she had saved him, and now she was his woman. The tall, strong, and wildly alluring Gu Haitao had made Yao Jiajia fall in love with him, even fear him. No matter how tenderly he held her one moment, the next, if she provoked him, he would hurt her without hesitation; his large, round hands would strike her without hesitation…
