    I don't have a male lead who's blind to romantic relationships; most stories involve arranged marriages that develop into love, and some have multiple couples—almost all of them are sweet. The first book features a female lead who is a crybaby with easily triggered tear ducts, especially around the male lead. She can't help but cry whenever she sees him. So if you don't like this type of character, don't read it. If you read it out of curiosity and find the female lead speechless, don't complain. Just leave. That's just how the female lead is. If you don't like the female lead, it means you don't like this type of character. Just don't read it. I haven't read the second one, there are just too many books 🤦 But it seems to be another one about marriage of convenience that blossoms into love, so please don't criticize me or the book if you don't like it. The third book features a clingy male lead who is forced to pretend to be a fool, which is genuinely sweet. However, the male lead doesn't appear until around chapter 30, as mentioned by the author. The fourth book is kind of to my taste. I like fast-paced stories, and this one is just what I wanted. If you like something, you like it; if you fall in love, you fall in love. You can just say it. There are many couples, and they're very sweet. Some people say that the relationship between the male and female leads is a bit inexplicable, but I really don't think so. I like to read books that are full of romance, the more the better. I like the female lead and the male lead to be together, and the female lead's best friend and the male lead's brother to be together. Maybe it's a bit too cliché, but I just like it. The fourth book is probably one of my favorites. The characters in the book all have their own stories, and there are a lot of couples. Sometimes, for the sake of the plot, the female lead's intelligence is forcibly lowered, and the characters all have their own distinct personalities.
