   A 1.9-meter-tall, double-door-opening swimmer x a 1.6-meter-tall, busty, narrow-waisted, petite female singer!! A dual rebirth setting; the opening alone will bring tears to your eyes and make you feel a little teary-eyed. For Zhizhi, rebirth feels more like fulfillment, making up for regrets. Because the two had already experienced childish adjustments and arguments before their rebirth, the story after rebirth is pure sweetness! Their individual efforts to reach the top and meet again are tangible. Together they are two love-struck fools; apart they are intellectual soulmates—it's truly a wonderful story! The author describes their interactions extensively, sweet and charming without being cloying!

   This is the first time I've seriously read a romance novel about an older woman and a younger man. The male lead is an athlete, and the female lead is a reporter. I didn't skip any chapters; the male lead is constantly talking, it's all premeditated, it's a two-way street, sweet and heartwarming, problems are solved as they arise, pure love with no angst, a tight and logical plot, and the female lead is charming, intelligent, and steadfast in her love. The way it handles family relationships is also very insightful. Highly recommended.
