   This book, though low-rated, is good. The plot involves the second female lead conspiring with Jian to send the female lead abroad. The female lead is deceived, but Mr. Gu rescues her. She undergoes brutal selection and training. Three years later, Yu Ran returns to China (but suffers from depression), followed by a tumultuous "wife-chasing-after-the-crisis" scenario… In my opinion, Yu Mo (the female lead's brother) is the one in control. (His parents died in a car accident, and he seeks revenge). The rest of the story is up to you to discover!
