   ① Don't be fooled by the low rating, it's really good! The female lead transmigrates and is drugged by her stepmother and stepsister, then kidnaps the male lead on the street to cure her. Later, the male and female leads meet and slowly fall in love. The son and the male lead work together to pursue the female lead, just like in a domineering CEO novel. The scene where the female lead begs for medicine for the male lead, kowtowing every step of the way, really moved me to tears. ② The writing is delicate, featuring a strong-willed young marshal and a pure and lovely military doctor. They first meet in their youth, reunite in a chaotic world, and fall deeply in love. The male lead leaves her to fight for his country, and the female lead becomes a military doctor to follow him to the death. ③ A sweet and adorable, witty little charlatan and her silly young marshal. To break her fate of not living past 25, the female lead performs a ritual to exorcise ghosts and light up 36 beads to overcome her destiny. The interactions between the two are super sweet, and there's also a ghost-catching scene, which is very novel and heartwarming, making it very attractive to read on.
