    The first book was the first novel I read when I first got into this genre. It had a happy ending, but the middle part was incredibly heart-wrenching [crying]. Both sides loved each other, but neither was good at expressing themselves, leading to many misunderstandings. It was still a very good read, and I cried a lot in the middle. The second book was really short. The female lead was a strong heroine who eventually became a spirit and wandered the human world to fulfill her wishes. There was no "white moonlight" or palace intrigue involving the female lead. Both girls were very kind. In the end, the male lead regretted his actions, but the female lead didn't choose to forgive him. The values ​​were just right, I cried [crying]. The third book was a novel that became very popular a while ago. I listened to the audiobook version, and the inner monologues of the male and female leads at the end were truly heartbreaking. Some people said that the female lead had warped values ​​and was a shameless pester. But if you put yourself in her shoes, you'll realize that if a man had been truly good to you for eight years, you had a child together, and he promised to marry you, but in the end he married someone of equal social standing, how would you feel? Would you pester him? Would you let go? The female lead was very clear-headed. She didn't make a scene but returned to the mainland, never to see him again. [Almost crying]
