No abuse of the female lead, slight abuse of the male lead (eight-year wait), no awful characters, no female rivalry! Girls help girls! A different kind of plot! The female lead was "instantly in love" with the male lead as soon as she transmigrated into the novel, thinking she was invincible at seducing him. She immediately won over the youngest and strongest regimental commander on the island. They kissed and slept together without any hesitation! Actually, after her system malfunctioned in the 70s, she transmigrated to the 60s and fell in love with him. Afterwards, she returned to the 70s, during which time he waited for her for eight long years! The timeline was disordered, but his love remained unchanged. The female lead is a character who grows and develops, possesses a system and a spatial ability, and isn't a saint. The male lead isn't purely good; he's both righteous and evil, not aloof towards the female lead, seemingly in love but actually a hunter rather than a hunter. Deep down, he's domineering and obsessive, and the female lead is his principle and bottom line. He's also incredibly powerful, and the female lead doesn't need to say a word or exert any effort in any situation! Both of them have their own voices! There's absolutely no feeling of being stifled! No abuse of the female lead, just a little bit of abuse of the male lead (eight-year wait)!
