    Reader note

    The male lead is incredibly powerful, cold-blooded, domineering, and a top-tier, insane warlord, his hands stained with blood, involved in all sorts of insidious and cruel methods! He forcefully takes the female lead from the very beginning. "Struggle, the more you resist, the clearer I see the burning desire in your blood… just like mine." "You think you can escape? Every inch of this world is my territory, and you—you've already been drawn into my domain." "Don't go near him, don't go!!!" The early episodes are incredibly angsty, both physically and emotionally, leading the female lead to cry and beg him (he does physically assault her, but not really!). When he's being affectionate, it's genuine; he coaxes her, kisses away her tears, and then the heartbreak begins again! In the end, he experiences a "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" scenario, spoiling the female lead for life.

    Reader note

    The novel *Even Heroines Have Tender Feelings* is incredibly heart-wrenching, but it's not forced or contrived. The protagonist, An Jing, as a soldier, realistically struggles between national duty and personal love. For example, her relationship with Lu Mingye is a classic example; the tension between her duty to protect her country and her profound love is incredibly moving. However, this heartbreak is substantial, rooted in a strong sense of patriotism. The protagonist isn't just in a relationship for the sake of romance; she's struggling and growing within the context of her military mission. Therefore, after finishing the novel, besides feeling sorry for her, you feel a deep respect for her profound love and compassion. The heartbreak is well-placed and captivating; highly recommended!
