    These books are all very straightforward, no beating around the bush. If you like someone, just say so; if it's mutual, you'll be together! [Heart emoji] The first two are campus romances. In the first one, the male lead is a playboy who falls for the female lead, a sweet and innocent girl, and then he turns over a new leaf. In the second one, it's a reincarnation story where the female lead dies but discovers the male lead is the one who truly loves her. She's reborn, directly pursues him, and expresses her love. The male lead is a bit insecure, but she eventually redeems him. [Almost crying emoji] The last one is a story about an entertainment industry CEO (the male lead is also a movie star). The female lead has amnesia after a car accident. She was originally going to get a divorce, but after losing her memory, she's brainwashed by her mother, who thinks she doesn't cherish the male lead at all and even bullies him. In fact, the male lead wants to imprison her, but when he's not being obsessive, he's incredibly gentle with her. And then they just get together! Super sweet, no beating around the bush!

    Both are straightforward, with the female lead taking the lead. When she takes the initiative, the guys don't stand a chance; they're all too bold. In the first book, the female lead is so bold that it's a bit awkward; they get together in chapter 37. The second book uses a direct approach due to power dynamics.
