    The female lead knows what she wants. Although she lacks love, she would never abandon her dignity for love. She loves passionately and breaks up decisively. The male and female leads are childhood sweethearts. They dated for a while when the female lead was in her senior year of high school, but when she discovered that the male lead didn't like her, she decisively broke up with him and went abroad to study. Later, she returned to China and married the male lead to reclaim her mother's inheritance. During their time together, she fell in love with him. Later, she discovered that the male lead had been using her and deceiving her feelings, so she decisively divorced him (followed by a dramatic "wife-chasing-back-to-the-cremation" scenario).

    The plots are engaging, not clichéd, and not mindless. Books 1 and 2 are both quick transmigration stories. The first book has no romance and no major flaws. I'm not sure if the second book has a romance, but from what I've seen, the plot revolves around facing the supernatural, with no romantic subplot. The ex-boyfriend character at the beginning isn't always a Bass character later on; aside from the first instance, some are only briefly mentioned before disappearing. I love novels with fresh main plots. The female lead's personality remains consistent throughout, without much emotional fluctuation. The instance plots in both books are particularly good, unpredictable, and addictive. They're satisfying without being mindless, and the whole reading is smooth and enjoyable. Books 3 and 4 have romances, power struggles, and the female leads are all rational and clear-headed. The male leads have no major flaws, and the female leads are strong. There are no scenes that feel mindless.
