    The first book was the first angst-filled novel I ever read, and I highly recommend it. I used to stay up all night reading it, reading it every time I came back from school at noon. I stayed up all night reading it, and didn't even take a nap at noon. I cried so much while reading this book. The second book is extremely angst-filled in the beginning. The female lead is locked in a cage and chained up; it's the kind of sadistic torture. If the female lead makes a mistake, the servants will whip her severely. It's just inhuman torture. Later on, it becomes an absolute hellish experience.

However, the Gu Zhiyan he meets again is no longer the poor boy from a year ago. When the truth is revealed, Gu Zhiyan kneels before every temple, devoutly offering an ever-burning lamp, not asking for a long life, but only for a life-and-death bond… In the second book, Xiao Yu is imprisoned in a rehabilitation center by his father on his birthday, losing Fu Zechen, the one who loves him most. When he escapes that hellish place, battered and bruised, Fu Zechen abandons him without hesitation. As the sharp blade cuts through flesh, blood gushes out, taking away all warmth from his body, in his hazy consciousness, he seems to see someone rushing towards him. Book 3: A diagnosis leads Shen Ning to cruelly abandon Qin Jiu, his only family. Upon meeting again, Shen Ning is stabbed, his life extinguished. Dragging his wounded body, he watches his beloved walk onto the championship stage… Book 4: Jiang Li is a madman, falling deeply in love and becoming obsessed in a sugar daddy/sugar baby game. He knows Yi Zhen doesn't love him, yet he still clings to her relentlessly despite his injuries. Ultimately, he doesn't receive salvation and walks into the sea in despair as the sun rises… Book 5: Lin Ran held his last live stream on the day he was diagnosed with cancer, but unexpectedly received a variety show invitation. On the show, he says: "Lin Ran, you're so shameless." Under the setting sun, a sports car crashes through a fence and plunges headlong into a cliff. He Ze unbuckles his seatbelt and gently pulls his darling into his arms. Book 6: Wen Mo was taken home by his parents at 19, and his mother gave him his first gift.
