His feelings for the female lead are premeditated; he's the type who does more than he says. In the beginning, his kindness towards the female lead seems to be mixed with guilt, because her father died saving him. The female lead is quite pitiful, living with her grandmother. She appears aloof but has a soft heart, is strong and independent, and spent eight years abroad to become a better version of herself—which I think is perfectly reasonable. Later, upon returning to China, she's immediately dragged into getting married by the male lead. During her years abroad, he quietly did a lot, helping her solve difficulties and taking care of her grandmother… The male lead's love is undeniable.

    This is the most enjoyable contemporary romance novel I've read this year. It's a masterpiece of intellectual romance, not suitable for young readers with little social experience. The business battles are incredibly exciting, and the romance between the two strong characters is particularly captivating. The writing is superb, far superior to that of novice authors. The only problem is the lack of suitable replacements. If anyone can find a book of this caliber, please recommend one to me.
