   Super good! The story follows the protagonist's growth step by step after her rebirth, and the romance is fantastic. Everyone is incredibly intelligent. I initially thought it was just a simple revenge story about the female lead, but it seems there are other stories as well. The five storylines involving the five male leads are also excellent. Three of the male lead storylines are currently covered. Looking forward to the other two! Highly recommended!

   Three of these books are highly rated and worth reading; they're all sweet and not angsty. Only one and the second are ongoing series; the other two are completed. I've read all four. These four are especially good. In the first book, the female lead pretends to be weak but isn't the kind who gets abused. There are no mistresses, green tea bitches, or white lotus characters. Her parents treat her very well, and she also has a brother. Just read it! The second book is also sweet!!! It gets sweeter as you read on. The third book is also about hiding one's true abilities, but she hides them to avoid the male lead. Of course, the male lead finds out in the end. I don't remember the fourth one very clearly; I finished it a long time ago. You can check it out. It's definitely not angsty.
