   These are heart-wrenching novels I've read countless times on my bookshelf! (A hidden gem!) I love seeing the male lead regret his actions. They're incredibly angsty, but everything ends well with a happy ending. The first and third books are super angsty; the female lead is very submissive in the beginning, but the later torment of the male lead is very satisfying and enjoyable. They perfectly match everyone's book-hunting tastes—try them!

   These three books are heartbreaking! Let me introduce them first: The first one: The female lead's love is humble, fearless, and desperate. In the end, she loses both her body and her life. In this love story, it's just that the female lead understood too late. The male lead, on the other hand, understood everything from the very beginning. The second one: Incredibly heartbreaking! The male lead treats the female lead as a substitute; the female lead only has a face similar to his, but she loves him, while I am the one who faces death. After hearing this, I truly burst into tears! The third one: A tragic ending combined with a heart-wrenching romance, a powerful pairing! It's truly heartbreaking, especially for the female lead. These two have a blood feud, yet they love each other deeply. It's unbearable to watch 😭

    ① Read with caution if you're not emotionally strong; the entire story is angsty and has a tragic ending. ② There are sweet and angsty moments; the separation scene is heart-wrenching. The author said she cried while writing it, making it very immersive. It has a happy ending. ③ The story is mostly sweet, but the part about the male lead's parents is truly heartbreaking. So many readers felt it was unsatisfying, and the demand was so high that the author, who never writes rebirth stories, added a rebirth chapter in the extra chapters. Some readers in the book community couldn't resist writing their own rebirth stories.

    1. It's a story of sworn enemies, quite angsty at the beginning, really heartbreaking (╥╥). 2. It involves amnesia, generally sweet with some minor angst, a rather bittersweet love story ꒦ິ^꒦ິ. 3. It involves raising a child, quite sweet at the beginning, but very angsty in the middle and later stages, especially since they have a typical example before them, serving as a cautionary tale. I can't spoil too much... The epilogue summarizes the story's worldview, giving examples from different dimensions, which really stabbed me in the back (╯╰,). 4. It's also about sworn enemies becoming wives, and here's the key point! I think the author is analyzing "what love really is" for us ☆ (not really).
