    I first saw the first book recommended online, and it was quite good, making me think the female lead had actually come back to life. It turned out it was all just the male lead's imagination. Don't be put off by the title of the second book; there are plot twists, so you can check it out if you like that kind of story. The third book is good, but the female lead's life is a bit tough, so it's hard to say. You can read it if you're interested. Most people have probably read the fourth book. I still can't accept the CPBE (couple pairing) dynamic; the parallel universe Xiaoxiao and Yusheng will always be together.
