   All of these books are great to read! The first one, with the main character and the little crow, is so cute… The second one, with the male lead and his brother, is a perfect match – one dotes on the other like a six-year-old, while the other hides his true nature and acts like a cheerful, outgoing boy. The third one, with its brotherly love, is also great; the two brothers are strangely affectionate towards each other. The fourth one, with the little fries mom, is incredibly adorable. The fifth one, with the male lead and his teammates, is also great to read. The sixth one, with Fei Fei herself and any positive character, has a rare charm. The seventh one, with the main character and the protagonists of the three worlds, each has their own appeal.

    These are some great 1v1 stories. First book: Zhang Sanfen x Protagonist. Watch how the protagonist chases his boss all over the world. Zhang Sanfen is incredibly protective of him; if the protagonist is bullied, he'll slap those people. Many say the protagonist is weak, but let me clarify, this isn't a wish-fulfillment story. The protagonist is a growth-oriented character, initially relying on Zhang Sanfen's guidance, but later becoming stronger to avenge Zhang Sanfen. Like Wu Xie, his development period is long. Second book: Ye Yang x Protagonist. When the protagonist is framed, Ye Yang immediately decides to kill him, followed by a princess carry, hand-holding, and an indirect kiss—a perfect match. Besides, everyone else is shipping them, and Ye Yang doesn't even object! Third book: Qin Yiheng x Protagonist. This Qin brother protects the protagonist from beginning to end, even risking his life for him. The key is his tragic fate. In the middle, the protagonist is ambushed and forced into a dark, coffin-like house where he meets Qin Yiheng, but Qin Yiheng can never escape, trapped inside, endlessly encountering the protagonist. When the protagonist learns the truth, he cries and can't speak. The two-person pairing is already officially ridiculed. The novel recommended by Nanpai Sanshu is worth reading; it has a happy ending. Fourth book: Xiao Mo x Protagonist. The protagonist keeps staring at the young master's lips and earrings, leading others to mistakenly believe she's the young master's kept mistress. Haha, the key point is that the protagonist says he likes Xiao Mo for a mission. Fifth book: Wen Chuan x Protagonist. From beginning to end, only Wen Chuan is good to the protagonist. He even tries to steal the protagonist away by pulling her into his arms, making the protagonist angry. In the end, Wen Chuan simply takes her away, and the two live together. Sixth book: Fu Chengyue x Protagonist. The two are initially misunderstood because of holding hands. The academic genius says, "I heard you guys are spreading rumors that I have a wife?" The ending is a bit tragic; Fu Chengyue sacrifices himself, forgetting everything. The protagonist finally finds him and cries when he discovers the academic genius doesn't remember him. Of course, in the end, the academic genius definitely remembers his wife, officially recognized. Seventh book: A Chuan x Protagonist. One character has a quirky sense of humor and enjoys scaring the protagonist, often blowing on their neck and telling frightening stories. However, they are also incredibly kind to the protagonist, carrying them around when they get injured during training. The protagonist's personality is also endearing, though their reactions are normal; they feel fear in such situations and regret their impulsive actions. There are also two identical characters named A-Chuan, both trying to seduce the protagonist. One of A-Chuan even confesses his feelings to the protagonist, though he later claims it was a joke. The protagonist even sheds tears for A-Chuan, but the ending feels a bit abrupt, forcibly linking the protagonist's relationship with Shen Ge. Even though A-Chuan spends the most time with the protagonist, the ending's romantic subplot feels somewhat forced, but it's a happy ending. The eighth book: Luo Xiyuan x Protagonist. The protagonist describes Luo Xiyuan as a "big-tailed wolf," a "fox spirit," and a "cobra." The two have been through thick and thin together, sharing a deep connection. The protagonist gets angry because the protagonist refuses to tell him his plans, but he's actually already subtly hiding his true intentions. The ending feels a bit rushed, but the two are incredibly likable. Also, a word of caution: the protagonist is quite deferential to women, which some people criticize as cowardice. Book 9: Ye Huan x Protagonist. A familiar feel, similar to "Borrowing Life in the Mortal World." Their relationship begins with a clash. Ye Huan remains aloof and sharp-tongued, but of course, he's very good to his wife. Book 10: Song Qingqi x Protagonist. The story begins with the protagonist timidly believing Song Qingqi is going to rob him, and nervously handing over his two hundred yuan. From then on, Song Qingqi is called "Two Hundred Yuan" by the protagonist. In reality, their relationship was quite close before, making this book very enjoyable to watch. Book 11: Wu He x Protagonist. The protagonist meets Wu He after a ghost marriage. Wu He has a similar personality to Zhang Qiling, which is also very appealing. Book 12: Zhou Yibai x Protagonist. Like the previous book, it's full of playful bickering. It's not about a powerful figure leading the way; the plot has some funny moments. Overall, just enjoy watching it!
