    The seemingly innocent girl, secretly cunning, kissed someone else right in front of him, making him jealous without any real connection. Dumped by her childhood sweetheart, she returned from studying abroad to seek revenge. The innocent girl transformed into a wicked woman, a womanizer, a heavy drinker and womanizer, skilled in everything from smoking to drinking. Every substitute she found resembled him. She dreamt he asked her if she loved him, only to wake up to find him lying beside her. Hitting him became a reward. Her best friend asked if she remembered him. She said no, but her friend said she hadn't revealed who that person was. Yes, when you love someone, even the shadows of their substitutes surround you. Even during her time studying abroad, she still thought of him. How can one forget the one they love most? How long does it take for a devoted person to turn into a heartless woman? Just the moment he dumped her. She changed. Her transformation was only superficial; he still took her virginity. She said she wanted to kiss a male model. So he could be jealous too. Where was he before? Did he love her? She didn't know. If he loved her, why did he dump her so cruelly back then? The seven-year itch is something no one can escape, right? His childhood sweetheart became a CEO, and he begged her to have their child to tie her down. Could a person be so cruel? He didn't want to use a child to bind her; he tried to keep her by his side forever, unaware that she had changed. She had nightmares about him abandoning her, yet he held her and said he wouldn't leave. Upon waking, her instinctive reaction was to slap him. Was it that being too greedy meant she could never have the one she loved most? Little did she know, she called him crazy, but he said he wouldn't be crazy if it weren't for her. He grabbed her neck, asking if she had been with someone else abroad. She felt his jealousy, which gave her a sense of triumph. He smashed the phone her mother had bought as a keepsake. Having missed her mother's funeral, she began to hate him. She replaced his male assistant and secretary with his stand-ins, provoked him by having unofficial relationships with them, and even kissed them in front of him. He was furious and extremely jealous. Their relationship was never officially announced, yet she was consumed by jealousy over their lack of recognition. Watching him be jealous, she felt a strange sense of vengeful pleasure, but she used foreign etiquette to provoke him. He had nowhere to vent his anger. He said he wanted to kiss like that abroad too, but she said enemies don't need to kiss. He was enraged... His face turned green as he forbade office romances, implying that only he and she were permitted to have one—a double standard. She skipped work to meet her younger self at a party hosted by the school's most popular male model, but secretly hoped he'd catch her. She kept wondering why he hadn't arrived yet. Finally, he came, but as she tried to open the door, she regretted that he had prevented her from seeing her mother one last time. Some hatred, in the face of love, only brings pain and distortion. Torn between two people she loved most—her beloved mother and the man she loved most—she agonized over the regret of not seeing her mother one last time; the dead cannot be brought back to life. He was alive, so she had no regrets. But her mother couldn't live, and she couldn't forgive him. Even when the male assistant wanted him dead, she hesitated and agreed. He said she was heartless, unaware that he was even more heartless when he dumped her. She was merely repeating the actions she had taken when dumping him. The male assistant also smashed the wine glass her mother had left behind, yet she didn't see him as an enemy, only heartache and hatred. This made her resolve to join forces with the male assistant to kill him, but love made her hesitate about telling him the truth about his impending death. She bitterly thought, wasn't this the best opportunity for revenge? Yet, she felt he didn't deserve to die. People are always caught in a dilemma when making choices; the contradiction seemed to make either choice unhappy. But she didn't understand what the male assistant meant by what he said. Wasn't he clearly dumped her because he didn't love her? Why were his words so light and so heavy?

    All of them are well-written. The first two are by Jiu Xiaoqi. The writing is excellent, they've already been published, and the stories are very good and sweet. The robot in the second book is just too perfect. The third book has a more novel story setting, and the female lead in the fourth book is exactly my type. And the villains should be clearly and unambiguously evil.

    This is a gem of a novel! The male lead is a complete villain, solely focused on ruining the female lead. She uses a card on him, and while he can't stand her, he can't get rid of her—it's incredibly good! The female lead, though undergoing significant growth, is very intelligent, knows how to assess situations, and isn't pretentious. Both the male and female leads are well-developed! Excellent character design! The entire story flows smoothly, the writing is excellent, the characters are interesting, and the plot is very engaging. Highly recommended!

    This is really good! [Crying][crying] But it's not finished yet because the author accidentally set it up wrong and can't change it. In my over ten years of reading experience, this is truly excellent. The plot is exciting and fast-paced! The female lead is clear-headed and has no romantic subplot! The author doesn't leave plot holes unfilled. It's really, really good!!!
