   🌷🌷🌷I'm here to recommend some books! The main couple is Chen Pi, who's cold and ruthless to others but gentle and sweet to the female lead.📖① Volume 1: Lin Jianwei and Chen Pi. This story is good and interesting; the female lead trains Chen Pi like she's training a dog (I personally think it's the best part). 📖② Volume 6: Female lead Huo Xiangu and Chen Pi. 📖③ Female lead Lan Ruo and Chen Pi. 📖④ Female lead Nan Zhi and Chen Pi.

    Reader note

    This is absolutely an underrated novel. It's a tender and redemptive romance that perfectly captures the essence of Chen Pi Asi, flawlessly balancing the sense of destiny through stark contrasts. Chen Pi Asi lived his life amidst chaos and violence, his sharp edges and fierce nature, his stubborn and unyielding personality, and his cold and ruthless treatment of others. Half his life was filled with hardship and scars, his heart harboring untold bitterness and loneliness. In the past, the world feared his ruthlessness and loathed his stubbornness; no one wanted to approach his weathered and sharp exterior. The female protagonist, however, is the complete opposite. She is gentle, pure, and soft-hearted, unafraid of his bloodshed and unperturbed by his eccentric and stubborn nature. She never judges him by worldly standards, embracing all his darkness and anxieties, using gentle tenderness and unwavering companionship to gradually soothe his childhood wounds and melt away his icy exterior. The moving aspect of this couple is never forced sweetness, but rather the ultimate compatibility of violence and tenderness, the mutual redemption of darkness and warmth. Chen Pi, once a man of ruthless ambition and obsession, lived a life of stubbornness and loneliness. After meeting the female lead, his cold world finally warmed, and his sharp edges gradually softened. He remained the same decisive and ruthless Chen Pi, yet he was tender and accommodating only towards her, his heart filled with vulnerability. He displayed his ferocity to the outside world, but reserved all his gentleness for her alone. His ruthlessness was what the world saw, his deep affection a unique and exclusive devotion to her. The author portrays their relationship with delicate restraint, avoiding melodramatic angst and focusing instead on a gentle and healing companionship. Like aged tangerine peel meeting a warm breeze, a life of bitterness finally yields a sweet aftertaste. It's a top-tier romance novel that gently redeems a lone wolf in a chaotic world, tender yet poignant, becoming increasingly addictive with each reading. The most intense Chen Pi in the world, outwardly shrouded in ruthlessness, yet harboring a pure and gentle heart—a truly remarkable character. The smoke of war in Changsha forged his sharp edges, but the youthful infatuation lingered, a bittersweet experience, much like the sweet aftertaste of aged tangerine peel. His blade faces the world, yet his tenderness remains reserved for those he cherishes. The most striking contrast in their relationship: he is a ruthless demon steeped in blood and snow, she is the gentle warmth that heals all his obsessions. [Admiration]
