    This one's good. In chapters 47 and 48, the female lead cuts her wrists. The questioner said no double male leads, no double male leads, no double male leads, but the first book I clicked on was the top one, and it's a double male lead story [what?]. It's a happy ending, but angsty, I personally think it's quite angsty, heartbreaking. The female lead was originally a little sunshine, but later... I suggest you throw away your brain, but not completely, not in a completely mindless way.

    The male lead is depressed, his heart riddled with wounds, desperately clinging to the only lifeline. The female lead is like a hedgehog, pushing away everyone who tries to get close [almost crying]. Both of them come from troubled families and have a history of self-harm; they are mutually redeeming each other [almost crying]. It's really good.
