   These two books are really funny 😂 and so good that I couldn't stop reading them. The first book has a heroine with a super brain. Her father's mental state is so crazy that he kills everyone in the court. The heroine in the second book is even more beautiful. The heroine makes a mistake and kills the wrong mission target. The system only comes online after saying that the dead man under her feet is the mission target. Later, the male protagonist becomes the mission target. She runs away from him and chases her father to assist her, making it difficult for her to fly.

   [Big Brain, Doing Business, Sweet Pets] This is the first time I have seen this kind of fantasy. Jiang Fuyue slipped through the book and became a cannon fodder. Instead of saving the heroine's life, she threw money at the hero. From then on, the gears of fate began to turn. He called her miss, and it lasted a lifetime. She said, "Thoughts will sprout and grow into new big trees in the sky." In the end, she really grew into a big tree in the sky that can provide shade for all living beings. Qin Guique watched her grow step by step, from cannon fodder to the top, from the fear in her eyes to determination. He protected her from the wind and rain, and watched the storm with her while laughing.
