    This is a story about the love of ordinary people—childhood sweethearts, the male lead is a construction foreman, and the female lead is a city hospital doctor. My impression of the male lead is that he's steady, low-key, reliable, and hardworking. If you like this type of story, give it a try! With 15 years of reading experience, I guarantee good writing!

    Reader note

    This book is truly educational; I've watched it steadily climb to its current 8.9 Rating. Having read novels for over a decade, this is the only one I've read every single day. The author is a doer, someone who has achieved results, and he shares his personal experiences to explain how he achieved them. The content includes teachings on feng shui, divination, and fortune telling. It also covers methods for interpersonal relationships and the practical application of Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist classics. As for why I'm reading it, perhaps it's because Qin Chen (the male protagonist) embodies my ideal self.
