   Reader note

   1️⃣ The first book is a bit bittersweet. The two characters have feelings for each other, but they don't reciprocate. Initially, the female lead feels bittersweet, then the male lead does. There are no melodramatic second male or female leads; on the contrary, both the second female and male leads are quite good. I've read it three times. 2️⃣ I absolutely love the second book. It's already been adapted into a short drama, but I personally suggest not watching it yet. This book is truly worth reading. No one can portray Zhou Zhijing and Jian Jing as the author portrays them. There are villains, but their roles are so small they're practically extras, not even qualifying as second female leads. It's not angsty, just hilarious and pure sweetness, with a tiny bit of bittersweetness. I've read it countless times.
