    🧐Hello, my darlings, this is Youmeng! ❤️ ①Author, you really know how to tug at my heartstrings! It's truly excellent. I'm now incredibly curious about Chu Jiu—who is the female lead? Every short story is deeply memorable and very moving! The only drawback is that the author updates a bit slowly, haha. You can add it to your bookshelf and read it slowly later; it's definitely worth getting hooked! ❤️ ②The story is very rich and logically sound. I really like Huang Yu—kind but not a saint! A hidden gem! ❤️ ③Many ghost stories are strung together in a wonderful way, the plot unfolds seamlessly, making you want to keep reading! ❤️
