   😭😭Every wife in every book has some psychological issues. My favorite is the fifth one, a rebirth story. It's about a real and fake young master.

He returns to his past, but still carries a host of psychological problems. He seems to be pretending to be a "green tea" girl, but it's just a cover for his true self.

    Very good, highly recommended! The first book, "Jiang Yi's Suffering," is so bitter that he hates the world and wants to die, but he's bound to a system and can't die. He also has to win over Ying Xun. Isn't it just playing along? He actively offers himself up, "Teacher Ying, I've liked you for a long time. Will you be my boyfriend?" Ying Xun coldly throws him a card, "20 million. Three days. Go get the removal surgery." Then, he leaves the hotel without looking back. Jiang Yi's playful side is aroused. He insists on staying at Ying Xun's house, steals Ying Xun's shirt, and raises his delicate and beautiful peach blossom eyes slightly, "Teacher Ying, do you like me like this?" The next second, he is pushed away, and Ying Xun's cold and sharp voice crashes into the room, "Jiang Yi, are you happy to degrade yourself?" Jiang Yi nods, "Yes..." When he realizes he is loved, he wants to escape this world. It is Ying Xun who teaches him the ability to love again, becoming his salvation. The second book is a bittersweet story. Five years ago, a car accident led Gu Chong to break up with Jiang Xu. When they met again, Jiang Xu gradually brought Gu Chong into his own territory and learned the truth of what happened back then: the shadow that had trapped Gu Chong for more than ten years, and the past that forced Gu Chong to resort to self-harm.

    The protagonist was diagnosed with severe depression at the age of 14, attempted suicide multiple times, and has many scars on his wrists. He was even discovered attempting suicide several times. His description of his illness is very realistic. He posted a video on social media, in which a small corner of the scars on the protagonist's wrist is visible. The caption reads: "What are freedom and love? I may never have them in my life. A butterfly lands on my fingertip, and I admire its beauty. The butterfly's life is short but beautiful and free, yet it is a scavenger, emanating a wretchedness from its soul. But its outward beauty makes me forget its wretchedness for a moment. I am a bird bound by the inherent rules of the world, spreading my wings to soar freely into the sky, but reality always delivers a heavy blow. The mockery of words and the distortion of my mind have made me close myself off, becoming a bird caged for people's amusement. From meeting him to falling in love, fate has been so unfair; I don't quite understand. This year I am twenty-two years old, and I have lived my life in a complete mess. I started thinking about the meaning of life when I was thirteen." Before meeting him, I lived in a daze. After meeting him, I realized why some people are handsome, academically gifted, and from open-minded families. Compared to him, I was like mud in the ground. Tears scalded that winter. I gave in to my father and went abroad. Would he hate me for leaving without saying goodbye, for abandoning me? Just a few months ago, we were sharing our deepest feelings. I can't turn back, and I can't go back. Before I left, I didn't even have a chance to tell him, "I love you." During the time I was away from him, I even contemplated suicide. I had no reason to live. I couldn't contact him. I hated my cowardice, my incompetence, I hated myself. I was like barren land; his appearance brought me back to life. He pulled me out of the abyss countless times, but I had nothing to give him in return. The infatuation of youth is pure and passionate, but I'm not sure how long it will last. Maybe it's just youthful folly. When I see him again, will he be married with children? But he loves me so much; he won't. I don't know. I really wanted to curse him so he'd only have me, but that would be too selfish. Never mind. As long as he's safe and sound. I wonder if you'll see this video. Happy birthday today. I miss you so much.

    The author's writing is superb; all the stories are short and indescribably beautiful. It truly breaks my heart to read about Xiao Xiao and Chen Ge. While reading this book, tears flowed freely. Their journey has been incredibly difficult. Some readers say Xiao Xiao should have died under the overpass that night, leaving Chen Ge to live with eternal pain and guilt. But the book lacks a third-party perspective; they can't see how their loved ones endured such hardship behind their own backs. For Xiao Xiao, having finally escaped the drug rehabilitation center and risked her life to reach her lover, she was repeatedly met with cold indifference, pushing her physical and mental limits to the brink, leading her to choose suicide. For Chen Ge, fighting against his father for his lover, he jumped off a building, injuring his leg and lying in bed for three months, only to be told that his lover had taken money and left, and he couldn't find her anywhere—how could he not be heartbroken? For Chen Ge's father, his son had fallen for another boy, and he intervened to prevent them from being together, never imagining that there could be such a vicious father who could bring such a tragedy upon his own child. For his friend, his childhood friend was "deceived" in love, yet he couldn't let go of that person—if I were in his shoes, I would also be angry at my friend for his lack of self-respect! It seems that no one is absolutely right or wrong. The only ones at fault are Xiao Xiao's biological parents, who, despite sharing the closest blood ties in the world, only thought about how to kill their son and how to exploit him. I hope Xiao Xiao and Chen Ge will have a wonderful life together from now on. Xiao Xiao has suffered so much, nineteen years of hardship. Chen Ge's appearance was like a ray of light, illuminating her dark life. So you two must be happy forever!

    The protagonist (shou) is blind, but things will get better later. He has no attachment to this world and has attempted suicide multiple times, but the other protagonist (gong) saves him each time. The other protagonist falls for the protagonist at first sight (love at first sight). The first few chapters are a bit tough because the other protagonist is so annoying, but it gets better after those chapters. The other protagonist quickly realizes that he likes the protagonist and treats him very well. Highly recommended!!!
