    The first book was incredibly heart-wrenching. I initially thought the female lead had simply traveled to 21 years in the future, and near the end, I even thought the author had gone off-topic.

The protagonist has very positive values, so readers can enjoy it without worry.)

    The first five books are all very good. The first one is about a couple who grow up together on campus and die together, one getting married and having children. The second one is about a reporter and a narcotics squad; in the end, he clearly returns, but he still doesn't stay, going to Yunnan, where his life ends. She also encounters Morpheus. The third one is less than 10,000 words, a tragic ancient romance, all endings. The fourth one is recommended by the sister upstairs; it's relatively short. The fifth one is a story about unrequited love, incredibly heart-wrenching. After reading this one, I'm afraid to read any more stories about unrequited love. I highly recommend the sixth one! It's incredibly heart-wrenching; I couldn't stop crying from the fourth chapter onwards. The whole book is very logical, and the writing is excellent. If you really love tragic stories, you'll miss out if you don't read this one! Although it's only twenty-eight chapters, it vividly portrays the protagonists' journey from initial hatred to his eventual suicide for her. In just twenty-eight chapters, it perfectly captures their love for each other, a complex mix of love and hate, rich in emotion—truly moving!
