I really liked the best friend character; she always stood by the female lead's side, helping her fend off difficulties from her family and relatives.

The male lead's obsession wasn't mindless madness; it stemmed from childhood regrets and obsessions, making his character logically sound.

No need to wait for updates, no need to worry about a bad ending—the entire book is already full, so reading it all in one go until dawn is not a dream!
