   A sweet romance set in a bygone era + dual time travel + a spoiled, demanding princess x a love-struck, rough-around-the-edges man 🔥 How does this pampered princess train a country bumpkin into a loyal dog, turning the 1970s into a honey pot?! A wolf-like male lead: "Wife, I'll cover for you at work, I'll help you swear, and if anyone bullies you, I'll kill them." Tao Tiantian: "... Doesn't that have to be so ruthless?" "Tiantian's spoiled? I spoiled her." "Tiantian's causing trouble? I'll cover for her." "Tiantian wants to lie low? I'll support her for three lifetimes!" The female lead's demanding behavior is perfectly justified, and the male lead's doting is insanely indulgent. Daily flirting + satisfying face-slapping and scum-abusing moments are top-notch!

   All of these are period dramas, featuring a male lead who is love-struck and dotes on the female lead. He'll do anything she says, no matter how much she pouts. However, if the female lead kisses him, his IQ drops to zero. The first book features a gentle, refined, and doting male lead who is incredibly devoted to the female lead. The second book has a pregnant female lead who, despite being divorced, is still very doting on her; he's also love-struck. The third book has a male lead who is also obsessive and possessive, like a wolf cub, but incredibly devoted to the female lead. He's also love-struck, and when she runs away with someone else, he catches her and, whenever she kisses him, he does everything she says.

   The first book features a male lead who is the female lead's doting husband. He's from a privileged family, has a sharp tongue, and is a local bully in the military compound. Due to the times, he's sent to the countryside, where he meets the female lead. She's incredibly skilled in combat and very intelligent. The male lead is completely infatuated with her, and their romance becomes incredibly sweet later on. The second book, which I just finished reading, is quite unrealistic. The male lead is a high-ranking official who falls for her at first sight, while the female lead comes from an ordinary family. He spoils her rotten, buying her everything expensive and nice.

    1. Both are virgins. The female lead has no special abilities; she's a modern woman who transmigrates into the body of a sent-down youth in the 1970s. She marries the male lead to avoid farm work. The male lead is a truck driver who was previously married, but he's a virgin and his son isn't his. At first, I was a little angry; the male lead is incredibly dramatic. Again, he's a drama queen. The female lead is sophisticated, selfish, lazy, and has been reading over 300 chapters. She hasn't fallen in love with the male lead yet. He's a chauvinist, but not in the modern sense; he's initially harsh with her, but she's easy to appease. Again, he's dramatic because he's the exploited child in his family, working himself to the bone for little reward. He desperately wants someone to love and care for him. The female lead is incredibly gullible; the male lead is love-struck. 2. Both are virgins. The female lead is a control freak. I love it so much! The female lead awakens to the truth, discovering she's the male lead's wicked ex-wife. The story begins with her running away, only to be caught by him, haha. The male lead is love-struck; he's incredibly in love with the female lead, even when she cheats on him, but it doesn't work out. He's basically a cuckold. The female lead is selfish and manipulative. They also have a son who completely obeys her. Highly recommended. I know military romance is really cliché, but this one is truly, truly excellent. 3. Both are virgins. The female lead wakes up to find herself not only married but also with a son. It turns out she was pushed and injured at 18, leaving her with the mental capacity of a five-year-old. The male lead is a village bully with a bad reputation but is wealthy. He pays to prevent her from marrying an older man, thus beginning her chaotic amnesiac life. During her amnesia, the female lead is incredibly mischievous, haha, and her son is also very naughty. The son is three, and the female lead is five, so she doesn't let her son call her "Mom," but "Yao Yao." The male lead has a son and a daughter, and he's constantly driven crazy by them. Only after the female lead regains her memories does she stop stealing dogs with her son and playing in the mud with the male lead's water cup. The male lead is very responsible, a bit of a shrew with a sharp tongue and a touch of arrogance, but incredibly easy to appease. The female lead is initially afraid of the male lead after regaining her memories, but becomes arrogant once she learns he loves her. This book is hilarious, the dialect is authentic, and the male lead has a really rugged, masculine feel. I swear, all three books are great; I'll fail my exams if I'm lying, and I got 59 points on every subject.

    (1V1, both characters are virgins) When it comes to romance-obsessed characters, you have to look to my cousin. He falls in love with the female lead at first sight in both his previous lives. In the first life, he dies protecting her. The best part is that while the female lead carries guilt from her past life, she doesn't inexplicably fall in love with him in the second life just because he died saving her. Their relationship develops gradually, and readers can see the female lead falling in love with him step by step. There's no "I didn't love you before, but you saved me and I'm hopelessly in love with you" kind of thing.

    🔥🔥1. A bright, beautiful, and delicate woman VS a wild, lustful, and love-obsessed male lead. The man has an extremely short buzz cut, high cheekbones, deep-set features, and dark, sharp eyes, making him incredibly handsome and intimidating. He's expressionless, with a restrained and ascetic air, yet his physique is powerful and wild, overflowing with masculine hormones! These seemingly contradictory qualities blend perfectly within him, making him wild, lustful, and fierce—so charismatic he has no friends!

The third book: He obeys everything the female lead says, and even disapproving of her parents is unacceptable. He fears his parents won't like his wife, and even knowing who his biological parents are, he refuses to acknowledge them.

Don't worry, this story is superb; the writing is incredibly beautiful and delicate. It's a classic "family-loving" novel, full of sweetness and no angst – go for it!
