   The male lead, after a long-planned reunion, uses every trick in the book to win over the female lead! Highly recommended!! The female lead graduates, and the male lead deliberately arranges a reunion. On the eve of her engagement, he uses cunning to force her into pregnancy and then seizes her, using the child to advance his own status. I've read it twice and found it quite enjoyable. It has a very fresh character and plot setting, just niche and not very popular. To be honest, the male lead is really ruthless, a master of manipulation and trickery, and incredibly possessive after marriage. He's usually calm, but easily becomes irritable and angry towards the man who almost became the female lead's fiancé. This is my favorite book in terms of male-torture plots. However, the female lead is so tormented that readers are amazed she hasn't been driven insane by the male lead. Overall, it's a very good read. The author provides a plot analysis in the epilogue. Finally, please give it a five-star review after reading. It's a pity this book has few ratings and a low score.
