    Who understands this book? I've been reading it since last night and can't stop. It's mainly silly and absurd, and I highly recommend it. The male and female leads are a match made in heaven. The synopsis says it's all about 'madness,' but after reading it, I still think it's a bit too crazy. The male and female leads are alike, their mouths are like they've been poisoned, afraid they'll die the next second and won't be able to insult each other anymore. Both of them have pretty sharp tongues, always arguing and being domineering. Both of them have mouths, always ready to bicker, and the characters are quite well-developed. Who understands the story of mortal enemies becoming wives? The author updates quite quickly, and I highly recommend it. It features a double contrast: the female lead seems like a cold goddess, but is actually a chatterbox; the male lead seems like a sunny, cheerful person, but is actually a master of sharp tongues.

    1️⃣1️⃣: I cried so many times while reading this. The male lead's journey was truly difficult, from a small town to the capital. His spiritedness left a deep impression on me. The female lead was a down-on-her-luck young lady who was later found by her biological father and became a wealthy heiress. There's a bit of a sense of discrimination between a poor boy and a rich girl! The male lead's group of friends—those people everywhere—were really touching. Xia Zi's fiery passion, Zhong Yan's gentle tenderness, Wu Tong's honesty, Chen Beidao... The male lead in the book doesn't blame him anymore, and Xia Zi seems to have let go, but I really can't forgive him. I don't understand; I really hated him back then. He was so cruel! He ruined the dreams of six people.
