   This book is really good. The female lead is clear-headed and insightful; she has a spatial ability but doesn't reveal it, making her very intelligent and cautious. Moreover, she doesn't help those in need; she settles her scores immediately without holding back. The supporting characters also have their own brilliance and don't seem to lack intelligence. There's even a touch of forceful acquisition. In short, it's very good; I even had to quit reading it for a long time after finishing it [crying].

   "Brother, do you have someone you love?" Li Ruyue had asked this question long before Li Yanwen did. Moreover, she had explicitly stated that if he truly had a woman he loved, she would be happy to help him achieve his goal. She didn't necessarily want to be a pawn in this political marriage.
