   🍉Read more watermelons, sigh less🍉: Watermelon's products are always top-notch [Top Post] ① The male lead is pregnant while chasing his wife. The female lead has been chasing the male lead for 100,000 years. She finally gave up when she saw the male lead and his childhood sweetheart in disheveled clothes (there was a misunderstanding). She went down to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation and was entangled by the male lead. Accidentally😱, she gave birth to a baby and can't escape from now on😘😘 ② This book is really amazing. It's a wife-chasing crematorium! The male lead was very indifferent to the female lead at first, and every time he approached her, it was for a purpose🙃. Until later, the female lead disappeared (she was tied back by the system), and the male lead fell into demonic possession. He wanted to find her and remember her😭😭😭 ③ The female lead is super cute. She is a carefree and somewhat straightforward little fire dragon × a seemingly aloof but actually scheming immortal lord🥰. The plot is very good, and the writing style is quite humorous🤗🤗

    Betrayed by her beloved and betrayed by her closest kin? This novel, *May We Never Meet Again in the Next Life*, is so heart-wrenching it'll shatter your very soul! Author Jianqi de Yuhua uses divine bones as her pen to depict the despair of the War God Xi Yan's annihilation, and further portrays her icy sharpness upon her rebirth—when her father's hair turns white and her former lover goes mad with regret, she crushes her belated sincerity into dust. The most striking character is the alluring demon god, who offers his dowry across the three realms, only seeking a fleeting moment of intimacy, turning the "wife-chasing crematorium" into a raging inferno! The intricate power struggles and intense emotional turmoil make this far from a mindless, feel-good story. Every act of angst carries a logical barb, and sweet moments are laced with resolute shards of glass. Suitable for mature readers who appreciate nuanced character development and can withstand a fiery, intense plot—prepare your tissues for this excruciating yet cathartic divine revenge: **"Their kneeling pleas for forgiveness could never compare to the warmth the demon god's palm had held for me, warming my icy divine bones."**

The most heart-wrenching part is when the heroine discovers that he knew all along she was the key to breaking his fate, and all his protection was for his own use. In the end, he chose to sacrifice her for his ascension, but failed in the tribulation due to the backlash from his inner demons.
