Both leads should be each other's only partners, one-on-one, with the female lead doting on the male lead. He can be less powerful or influential than her, and the story shouldn't have him change or grow stronger later on.

① The male lead is ordered to steal from the female lead's family (who aren't exactly good people), and the female lead demands money from him in return. Later, when the female lead tries to elope, the male lead helps her. As their relationship deepens, the male lead quickly falls for her [smirk]. Knowing that the female lead is going to a male prostitute, he catches her and forcefully kisses her (only kissing her mouth). Later, his face turns even redder than the female lead's. He's innocent, jealous, and a loyal dog—who wouldn't love him? The female lead's personality is also very likable. ② A crazy, sickly, beautiful princess and a submissive, devoted, and loyal bodyguard—I love this kind of pairing. ③ The female lead is a princess, of noble status, and the darling of the family. The male lead is a shadow guard, a promising prospect—it's so sweet! ④ This novel has particularly rigorous logic. The female lead is really smart, and sometimes her ideas are very satisfying to read, making you exclaim how brilliant they are. --Don't go! The male lead is the female lead's bodyguard. Because she saved him, he secretly developed feelings for her. At first, Ah Qi was incredibly insecure, afraid to be with the female lead because of his status. If his hair accidentally touched her, he would kneel down to apologize and offer to cut off his own hair. When the female lead chatted with her maid and asked if she liked Ah Qi, she said yes, and Ah Qi, who was on night watch, almost fell off the roof. Later, Ah Qi, the bodyguard, became General Chu Anyang, and could finally openly pursue the female lead. Every day, he would defy his superior, carrying a small booklet and asking his subordinates to "think of how to punish the young lady."

The female lead is the master, and the male lead is a secret guard or shadow guard. The first book is a strong female lead + dual strong + transmigration + yandere + sweet romance. The male lead is initially cold and aloof, keeping everyone at arm's length, until one day the little shadow guard climbs onto the female lead's bed, pleading with red smoke rings, "Master, please love me... Please love me..." The second book is super, super, super good!!! The strongest princess of the Nine Continents is reborn into the body of a lovesick little princess of Western Qi. The female lead can hear the little shadow guard's wonderful inner thoughts. Watch how the female lead casually wins over the court officials while slowly conquering the little shadow guard's heart. "What are you laughing at?" Chu Qinghuang asked lightly, "What are you secretly plotting?" Fu Cang shook his head: "Nothing." Chu Qinghuang glanced at him sideways. Did he really think she didn't know what he was thinking? Am I the one who receives the favor, and am I the one who receives the favor too? If it were two years ago, she would never have imagined that the indifferent shadow guard back then would have such a rich inner world. The third book: Super short, sweet romance stories.

I think these three books are good! Firstly, as a romance novel, the first half is quite good, but the second half is not handled with enough finesse. Overall, it's very good! Secondly, I don't understand why this book only has an 8.3 Rating. I found it much more comfortable to read than the articles on the popular, highly-rated lists. Thirdly, I really like this. I don't think the female lead is a cold-blooded person. She can bear everything for her friends and lovers.
