    This book is highly recommended. It's really hilarious. Tons of memorable scenes. Judging from the author's daring use of language when cursing, you can foresee the chaos to come. Both the male and female leads are sharp-tongued, intelligent, and morally upright, and the plot progresses incredibly quickly, with the villains also being eliminated just as fast. It's a marriage of convenience story told from the female lead's perspective, while the male lead's story is one of long-planned schemes. The female lead is also a popular online content creator and soothing therapist with 8 million followers. The male lead's slightly yandere personality is quite captivating. You can ignore the low rating and read it with confidence.
