   The first book ended with the male lead committing suicide after their breakup. After they reconciled, he would occasionally think that dying with the female lead by his side would have been perfect. The second book was both physically and emotionally torturous; the female lead was incredibly awful, the ending lacked love, and the male lead was extremely insecure. The third book said, "Even if you want to get back together with her, what about her? She's only after your current benefits, Brother Ci. Don't be foolish, turn back before it's too late!" "Have you forgotten how disgusted she was with you at your class reunion when she didn't know your identity?" "What you should have done today was to humiliate her severely when she came begging!" "Instead of giving her whatever she wanted!" "Even if you're soft-hearted, just watch coldly. This pampered young lady, losing her company, her money, and her mother's illness—she needs money for so many things. The mere difference in her lifestyle will skin her alive!" The more Wen Heng heard this, the more wronged she felt, feeling sorry for him. "And you, she hasn't even suffered a bit, and you've already married someone, giving her five million a month for living expenses. This isn't revenge, it's treating her like royalty!" The fourth book: "Is it because you saw those paintings that you're afraid of me?" "But I painted for so long... And you ruined them all today." "I ruined your filthy heart!" He found an opening while Chu Xingyao was speaking, and as soon as he finished, a series of scattered kisses landed on her cheeks and lips... "No, those... Those were my hopes, Yaoyao..." "I just miss you so much. All the images of you in the camera have disappeared... As if you never existed. I've been looking for you... For so long. They say I've gone mad." "But I remember... You loved me, but you've been gone for so long. I was so afraid of forgetting what you looked like, so I made those portraits—smiling, crying, kissing me... But now they're all gone." "Why did you destroy my memories?" "You don't love me anymore, are you going to cut off my livelihood too?" Chu Xingyao didn't answer. He endured his unease and heartache and continued to comfort her: "If you don't like me, I won't draw anymore, I'll never draw again..." "I've already had the cubicle sealed off. Once you've recovered, we'll go home together. There's also rice porridge; it's waiting for you to come home too, Yaoyao... You can't abandon me again..." Chu Xingyao's body was powerless to resist his hold, and she could only let him kiss away her tears with such tenderness. "What are you pretending for?" The man was instantly captivated, holding her face, not knowing what to do. Fifth book "You're still young, it's normal to want to play around and experience new things." "Lili, you're just hungry, but you can't leave me for those trashy people outside." "You just like to play?" "I'll let you play, okay?" "You can find as many as you want, male or female, just don't abandon me."

   The title already tells the story: the male protagonist suffers from moderate depression, stomach problems, back pain, and heart palpitations; his ex-husband (ex-boyfriend); it's a story of male angst (tortured through his illness); and it's a sweet romance. Don't be fooled by the low rating; it's actually incredibly good, starting with the protagonist's frail health. This is because this story is relatively new, and the market for stories featuring frail characters seems somewhat saturated.

Years later, they reunite, and this once-chaotic boy finally learns to love in the right way. The tension of "you run, I chase" in the story is particularly poignant. *His Little Difficulty in Coaxing*: He was drenched alone for a long time in the storm of youth. *His Little Difficulty in Coaxing* uses the most delicate strokes to dissect the hidden and turbulent inner world of a teenager—those unspoken concerns are all hidden in seemingly casual grades. This is not a simple love story of academic high-achievers. The author condenses the sensitivity, pride, and regrets of adolescence into the numerical divide in the exam hall. Xie Huai's "difficulty in coaxing" stems from his excessive seriousness; his silence hides too many unspoken words. Every moment of unspoken words is a mark left by growth. If you too have ever had a "Song Nuan" in your youth, if you too have ever silently compared your feelings to numbers—this novel will be like a mirror, reflecting the tender yet painful seventeen years we all experienced together. After the storm, someone will eventually understand all the unspoken "difficult to coax" he felt.

    This is the pinnacle of contemporary romance novels this year, a sweet, angsty, and intellectually stimulating read. After reading it, I couldn't get into anything else.

The female lead is brilliant; after reading, you'll not only fall in love with the male lead but also with the female lead. Suitable for discerning, seasoned readers; a unique and extreme emotional rollercoaster, not clichéd. The pacing is steady, starting slowly but building up to a sweeter, more intense feeling as you read. It has a grand scope, and will give you a thought-provoking experience. The plot takes off after chapter ten. Trust me, you'll come back and thank me after you finish reading.
