    A politician who has navigated the world of fame and fortune Ⅹ A clear-headed, free-spirited idealist ✨ I was initially put off by the first-person narrative, but with such exquisite writing, those flaws become a joke~ Xiaoyu is amazing! The characters are incredibly well-developed, the plot is unconventional and captivating, I absolutely love her! ✨ The male protagonist is a typical Chinese man, possessing both the traditional male flaws—male chauvinism—and the traditional male virtues—the ability to provide for his family. The 11-year age difference makes him forever see Liu Ran as a "middle school student," unable to treat her as an equal; he loves her, yet he also hurts her. He could give 2.8 Million yuan to Xiao Wu (Liu Ran) without her knowing; he could also take five bullets to save her from injury, risking his life; even when Xiao Wu was eyeing his inheritance, his first reaction was that she was more lively and less awkward; [sobbing emoji] But at the same time, his chauvinistic behavior hurt Xiao Wu. He didn't respect her, he couldn't treat her as an equal, he selflessly stood against her, he didn't understand her thoughts, and he saw her as a "weakling" who needed protection. ✨But Liu Ran pursued absolute freedom. Growing up in a family with extreme patriarchal values, she suffered a lifetime of being treated like a man, making it impossible for her to openly face her love for such a typical Chinese man. She had her own beliefs; she didn't want to be bound by the roles of wife and mother; she didn't want to be a "lady." So she divorced, didn't want custody, and went abroad to work. A free soul wouldn't stay for anything, but she was kind-hearted by nature, so she moved forward painfully but never regretted it. I really love this kind of "unconventional" woman. ✨The bond between the female protagonist and her sisters is particularly touching. Her third sister supported her by selling her flesh and blood, even though she couldn't have a child with her. Her fourth sister supported her with her own body, and when her fourth sister was imprisoned, she did everything she could, even getting herself involved, just hoping for her safety. The girls of the Liu family are all wonderful! [Crying emoji][crying emoji][crying emoji] ✨The author also dares to write about mother-daughter relationships, moving beyond the typical "motherly love and filial piety." The estrangement and distance between Liu Ran and Huihui, and the misunderstanding between the struggling lower-class mother and the well-off daughter of a high-ranking official, are truly well depicted by the author. ✨This book truly shattered many of my traditional perceptions, giving me a deeper understanding of the core of womanhood. Indeed, what readers always fall in love with is the free and indomitable spirit of female authors.
