   Ruthless, a refugee, male protagonist, kills Japanese invaders and traitors. He's decisive and ruthless, neither doting on his sister nor any other woman; he's all about women, no female lead. He doesn't falter at the sight of women, doesn't lose his mind, and doesn't shy away. He's a breath of fresh air. The male protagonist has a ruthless and ambitious nature; anyone who gets in his way will be killed. If his sister becomes an obstacle, he'll even kill her to prove his path. If you like refugee stories and stories about a sister-killing heroine, this is a good book, highly recommended!

    Is this book any good? The female lead is intelligent and decisive. Most importantly, she's a quotation-memorizing writer; anyone who argues with her is immediately branded with serious accusations – in that era, it was either death or serious injury. The rating is a bit low because there aren't many reviewers. It mainly depicts the warm daily life of the main family. Its strength lies in its excellent portrayal of the era. This is the most historically accurate book I've read on Tomato Books, with reasonable and precise depictions of prices, even down to a few cents or a few tickets. The details are meticulous, and there aren't many awful characters; it feels like you're truly living in that era. The only downside is the slow pace. There isn't much romance yet. It can be read as a historical fiction combined with a farming/developmental story.

    I recommend this to you. The female lead is cunning and ruthless. It's not a period drama, but it's really good! #This is the first time I've seen a female lead who's truly stronger than the male lead, both in terms of strength and wealth. Even after falling in love, she doesn't change her initial intentions and isn't love-struck. The male lead is also incredibly well-developed; since the female lead is almost invincible, she doesn't need someone to boss her around. #The female lead is cool, decisive, and shrewd, planning ahead. She has emotional issues, and the revenge process in the early stages is incredibly satisfying. The plot is really exciting, although it's a little gory at times. But for a novel, it's definitely enjoyable. #The male lead dotes on the female lead and respects her immensely. From their second meeting, he's already handing her the knife when she kills someone. He silently stands behind her until she notices him, and then their sweet romance begins. There are many memorable moments later on, like the female lead driving the male lead home in her family's latest fighter jet. The male lead's family also has very strong moral values. Tang Xili's life has been filled with darkness, but seeing him is like a withered tree blossoming in spring. He is her soul's resonance. Time boils the rain, years stitch the flowers. For the rest of their lives, they will forever be passionately in love. Throughout his life, Yong Zhixu has seen mostly tenderness; meeting her was like spring water reflecting pear blossoms. She is the resonance of his soul.

    🌈🍅Following in "Rebirth in '83" and following in "Rebirth in '91," this author's style is characterized by male protagonists who, no matter what they do, are courageous, resourceful, decisive, and have long-term plans. The plot is well-designed, the narrative is exciting, and the timeline is cleverly integrated with history. I believe "Rebirth in '79" will maintain the same high level of quality. 🧀🧀🧀
