    🌲This is a novel featuring two male leads. These are some of the stories where the protagonist goes from being universally disliked to universally adored simply by the male leads hearing the protagonist's inner thoughts 🤭. Before hearing them, you might think the protagonist is a simp, but after hearing them, you'll break down and realize the protagonist is just acting out love.

    I won't allow you to miss this incredibly good book! Everyone's smart, the protagonist isn't bound by romance, he's solely focused on climbing the social ladder, all the major characters are very doting, the "from universally disliked to universally adored" trope is spot-on, there's no original owner, it's a true "back to basics" story, so incredibly satisfying!
