   The suffocating love and hatred between the sworn enemies is palpable. He initially dismisses Mei Bao's words in their shared room as a dream. Forced into a marriage of convenience, the child is used as leverage to inherit the family fortune. Their loveless marriage blossoms into affection. She holds a rope to measure his neck, which he discovers. She asks if he trusts her to buy her a necklace; he refuses and ties her hands with the rope. Their child cries, and her tearful eyes evoke pity in him. Yet, he stubbornly grabs Mei Bao's chin, revealing their past as enemies. Seeing her packing, he assumes she's trying to escape and forcibly binds her to his arms, preventing her from doing so. He reiterates their sworn enemy status and instructs the housekeeper to monitor the city 24/7. The fortress gave her no chance to escape. She asked him why he was doing this. He only knew that he was doing this because he had feelings for her and didn't want her to leave. He was just trying to stop her from leaving. She pitifully begged him not to be angry, like a vixen. His father wanted him to divorce his wife, but he couldn't bear to hear the word "divorce." His grandfather had forced his father to divorce his mother, and now it was his father's turn to force him to divorce her. He still didn't know whether his mother was alive or dead. Her mother also wanted him to divorce her. He thought it was her family forcing him to divorce her, so he questioned her. She was unaware and a silent tear rolled down her cheek. He asked her what she was pretending for, but then kissed her tear. He was a little confused. Why would a family feud do this? She said she wanted a divorce, and at that moment her family came to rescue her with weapons. He tried everything to stop them, injuring them all. He and she had always been mortal enemies, but she suddenly pulled out an art knife and tried to kill him. His eyes were bloodshot as he warned her not to divorce him, or she would die. She cried and asked him why he showed her any pity. He slapped her, trying to make her realize that they were enemies, but he killed her love for him. In disbelief and despair, she asked him if he had never loved her. He suddenly remembered his grandfather's words: "A man without love is carefree." She coldly suggested sleeping in separate rooms. The housekeeper asked him why he didn't kill her, and he told the housekeeper to shut up. She ran downstairs, and he thought she was trying to escape. Their conversations always seemed to have a chasm that love couldn't bridge, as if their entanglement was a deep-seated grudge. She asked where her family was, and he stubbornly insisted they were thrown up a mountain, threatening her to go with them. Heartbroken, she banged her head against a wall and lost her memory. He wept with heartache. The housekeeper asked him if he had fallen in love with her. She didn't know he was her husband. She hit him, and he saw it as a reward. He realized his true feelings and began a sweet, loving, and happy relationship with her. He fed her but not his son, and even when imprisoned, he thought it was a good thing that food and lodging were provided. Just as she was about to give birth to her daughter, she regained her memories. She asked him if she had fallen in love with him, listening to his heartbeat. He unconsciously and gently admitted it, but upon waking, he denied it, saying that he and she were sworn enemies. She asked him again, but he blushed and denied it. At the height of their love, his father made him divorce her. She heard him say he loved her, and he began to admit it, begging her not to leave. His father gave him 50 million to leave her, but she heard that he wanted more money and that the money was hers. She took 500 million as a breakup fee and went home. He started crying. He went back to her parents' home to chase after her, but her family said he was her savior. What was going on? His father, worried about his son, chased after him. Will this sworn enemy continue, or will they shake hands and make peace?

   I haven't finished the first book yet, but the content is really good, and the plot is really intense. The second book is a zombie novel; aside from the protagonist being incredibly unlucky and causing trouble wherever he goes, I really felt sorry for the "tyrants." Behind every tyrant with self-awareness lies a tragic story. It can be read as an episodic novel. The third book was quite depressing for me because it's about survival in "reality" without a system or cheat codes. I felt the author did a lot of research while writing it, and the ending is quite realistic regarding what would happen if such a natural disaster occurred. In the fourth book, Qin Yanwan ultimately lives as Qin Yuan, although she always tries to change the plot. However, the ending was still happy. In the fifth book, I felt the protagonist suffered quite a bit, being abused because of jealousy. He should have been the darling of heaven and earth, but he was tortured to death. In the end, the ending was still good. There were happy moments and sad moments in the middle. I didn't actually finish the sixth book, mainly because the protagonist was forced to grow up and it was too painful for me to continue reading. I also didn't finish the last book. In general, the immortals didn't do anything wrong; they just wanted to push the world into reality. However, everything after the protagonist entered the Great World was marked with a price. Even the Heavenly Dao was manipulated. They really didn't value human life... In short, they truly realized how to treat human life as worthless.
