   The first book features Shang Zeyan, a typical "refined scoundrel"—on the surface, a gloomy, domineering CEO suffering from severe insomnia, but in reality, harboring obsession and a controlling nature. After falling in love with the female lead, Shen Zhiyi, at first sight, he imprisons her in his villa under the guise of "treating her insomnia," escalating from demanding she sing to lull him to sleep to extreme possessiveness. Beneath his impeccably tailored elite exterior lies a morbid obsession; he even resorts to surveillance and location tracking when the female lead tries to escape. The second book features Qi Du, the young master from the first world, seemingly a refined and elegant tutor, but whose sensitive and twisted personality stems from a lack of love in his childhood. After falling in love with the female lead, Su Ci, he showers her with gifts, stalks her, and even cuts off her contact with the outside world. When the original Su Ci escapes in fear, he directly transfers his affections to the transmigrated Su Ci. Especially when the original female lead tried to win him back, he coldly mocked, "You're not even worth a single hair on her head." In the third book, the male lead of the second world is a seemingly refined, insomniac CEO. During the day, he's impeccably dressed in a suit and tie, handling official business, but at night, his insomnia transforms him into a sinister control freak. After developing an obsession with the female lead, Jiang Tingyu, he uses a high-salary offer to confine her to his mansion, even sneering when she tries to resign, "Every breath you take belongs to me." When the female lead gives up and lies down, he becomes even more infatuated, pressing his nose against her neck to smell her scent, binding her wrists with his tie and demanding, "Why don't you smile at me?" He perfectly portrays the madness beneath his refined exterior.

    The male lead is a complete madman! It's incredibly angsty, a reunion novel. The male lead is extremely possessive and insane. It's a story of forced marriage and a long-awaited reunion. The beginning is quite tragic. The female lead is the male lead's enemy, later becoming his mistress. The male lead is insane. The female lead also suffers greatly; the male lead initially tries to kill her to avenge his mother, using ruthless methods. Therefore, she hates him later, gets pregnant with his child but doesn't want it, and fails to abort several times. Later, the male lead becomes obsessively in love with the female lead, constantly mentioning wanting her and wanting to marry her, all of which she rejects. In the end, the male lead forcibly takes her, marrying her as a third party for love. The male supporting character is also quite insane, in love with his stepmother. This is one of my favorite long-awaited reunion angst novels. The writing style and characters are very fresh; I've been a bookworm for years and had never read anything like it. The author's writing is good. So I'm currently very engrossed. Just by looking at the table of contents, you can tell the male lead is a forced, insane CEO. He wants to kill the female lead's parents while simultaneously forcing her to marry him. The female lead has to be strong enough to go insane.
