   Reader note

   Song Xiangsheng, like a pitiful second female lead, plunges headlong into the world of the privileged Nan Fengjin—he treats her like a readily available "sweet treat," while she foolishly tries to soothe his cold heart with her sincere affections. Even after her reputation is ruined and her heart is utterly broken, he still cherishes his unrequited love; even after she cries and begs him to come back, all she gets in return is, "Don't push your luck." Later, the female lead fully awakens, burying her humble love in a two-thousand-yuan "stomach pumping bill," and transforms herself into her own queen; while the once arrogant male lead finally tastes the bitterness of unrequited love, pursuing his wife with heartbreaking intensity. The writing is sharp and realistic, the angst feeling genuine and not unrealistic, and the female lead's triumphant comeback after regaining her senses is incredibly satisfying. It's a super-good urban angst novel that's "heartbreaking at first, then satisfyingly cathartic."
