    No rebirth, no time travel, no strategy guides. A local ensemble cast plus episodic storylines. The main plot features two gentle couples, with side stories featuring a sunny sidekick and a dark-skinned protagonist. No hidden cameras involved; the entire plot revolves around the female lead, focusing on a straightforward narrative. There's no female rivalry, but the romance is rather subtle (the sweetness is best enjoyed when it's carefully crafted!). I have a draft and consistently update 6k+ words daily.

    Reader note

    This is an infinite flow novel with no romantic pairings, featuring a strong female protagonist and some tarot elements. All the main characters are women, and there's no female rivalry, only a shared determination to walk side-by-side. The author's character design is natural and the plot doesn't feel forced or illogical. Two story arcs have been released so far. The first arc is a solo arc focusing on the female protagonist, Wen Lingyin, who is very calm and intelligent. The second arc, depicting Wen Lingyin's emotional transformation from initially wanting to use Yuan Jiumo to their eventual understanding and reconciliation, is particularly well-written! Girls should always be inseparable! The arcs are also very exciting, and the novel will continue to recruit characters for the arena battles and competition against other teams. This book is super good!
