    Highly recommended, super good, finished it in 2 days. Both the male lead and the second male lead are virgins, but the female lead is not. The male and female leads genuinely love each other. Although the male lead is a lecher, he truly loves the female lead and cherishes her dearly. However, he is an illegitimate child and is forced into an engagement with another woman for the sake of his family's interests. The female lead cannot accept being a mistress, and the male lead cannot accept being without her, so he keeps her by his side. The male lead is also an extremely possessive and crazy person. Driven by love turned to hate, the female lead seduces his brother to get revenge on the male lead, and the two betray him. But what she doesn't know is that the second male lead (who knew her and fell in love with her earlier) has a dual personality: the primary personality is abstinent and gentle, while the secondary personality is easily angered and irritable, like a puppy. The second male lead is truly fiercely competitive, and their families are supportive of their relationship, with no obstacles. I really enjoy watching the male lead regret and go crazy later on. No one willingly becomes a mistress and loves you unconditionally. If you don't cherish it, you'll miss out forever. There's no going back.
