   A treasure trove of a novel where the second male lead completely triumphs over the male lead! A hidden gem whose rating and title don't do it justice; you'll regret missing it! Absolutely amazing! Having read so many novels, this is the first time I've seen a male lead (formerly the second male lead) so genuinely gentle to the female lead. Not a single chapter is wasted; it's all high-quality writing, beautifully crafted, and definitely worth following. I'm absolutely captivated. If the first chapter sparked curiosity, the second made my heart flutter, and the third completely hooked me. To survive, Qiao Yin was Lu Jingzhi's (formerly the male lead) devoted admirer for three years and eleven months. He remained unmoved, and with only one month left, the system told her she had chosen the wrong target…
