Mutual redemption (forgive my lack of words, I can't express how amazing it is). ② The beginning of this book is a bit humorous, the theme is quite novel, and although there are only three chapters, there are so many plot twists!! There are extra chapters on the author's homepage, they made me cry so much.

    It features two strong male leads, both protagonists are intelligent, and the plot isn't nonsensical. The first story follows the principle that "evil is always punished by good," and the second story follows "evil is always punished by evil." The third story is a quick transmigration story that's quite interesting, with unique settings in each world. The last story is about forced love.

    Highly recommend! They're all incredibly delicious. The first one is an absolute gem of a sweet romance novel; the author's writing is superb. The second one is also great, but a bit niche. The author has written several endings that can be read individually or chosen from. The third one combines different love stories, and every single one is wonderful. Some couples are just so incredibly sweet! However, there are a few tragic endings, but they're all fantastic. ˶>ᗜ<˶
