   I've been reading this book recently. I was going through a reading slump for a long time and couldn't find any good novels on Tomato Bookstore, but then I saw this one on Douyin and came here to read it. Seriously, it's incredibly addictive! When I read a novel I like, I end up reading many chapters without even realizing it, and that's exactly what happened with this one! Plus, it's a cool and aloof immortal lord as the top and a lively and enthusiastic dark-skinned bottom—it's so good!

   The first book is about two male protagonists who, after their deaths, are arranged into a ghost marriage by their parents. They intend to part amicably in the underworld, but an accident sends them to ancient times. There, they gradually transform from each other's most trusted confidants into lifelong lovers, their relationship blossoming naturally. The plot is good, full of twists and turns, and it has a happy ending. The second book, I didn't realize it was a serialized novel when I read it, but it's very good. It's realistic, without the typical protagonist's halo or overnight riches. The writing is also good; I recommend it! I've forgotten the third book a bit, but I remember it being quite good.

    [Ancient Era + Younger Man/Older Woman + Stepson Achieves Success and Power] This is a slightly different style of ancient Chinese novel. It's about a male college student who transmigrates into the body of a widowed young man (perhaps because I don't read this type often, it seems a bit unusual). The widow remarried the protagonist, and now the protagonist's son is gone. What to do with his son? He raises him, but unexpectedly, the stepson develops feelings for him! (This stepson has ulterior motives towards the protagonist; their relationship might develop over time, but their mutual affection and entanglement before they get together is very compelling). Love is wanting to touch but then pulling back. In the feudal context of ancient times, the stepson dares not openly express his feelings to the protagonist. Such a violation of morality and ethics would be absolutely condemned, so the stepson strives for success and power, hoping to make the world afraid to defy him! Note: The young man in this story can have children, but because the protagonist is sickly, there shouldn't be any scenes of him having children; this has already been mentioned in the story. However, I personally don't like the kind of plot where the character travels through time and bumps into someone, and then the stepson finds out about their different personalities. So I skipped a bit of the beginning. You can skip it according to your own preferences. It's really addictive as you watch it!
