    This is a tragic love story set against the backdrop of the difficult survival of real estate professionals. It tells the story of Yang Jie, a real estate professional, and her growth after experiencing a series of setbacks in both love and career. It's not a typical rebirth or time-travel novel, but it gets better and better as you read on, with a particularly strong aftertaste.

Just then, his friend called to complain about having a kid minding the shop at an internet cafe, and he chuckled but didn't reply. She leaned on the table and curiously asked the school bully, "How much does it cost to hit someone?" Jiang Qi Yu laughed angrily, "I'm the school bully, not some gangster!"

"In this life, you have to walk the path you're meant to walk before you can walk the path you want to walk." The female lead really made me cry so much. ❤️✨✨In the second book, the female lead is unloved by her parents. Once, her father called her to a bar to find her stepsister brother. They only knew her brother hadn't returned, but they didn't know she was also afraid. Luckily, the male lead saved her, otherwise I really would have cried so much. ✨✨✨The third book, the female lead has post-traumatic stress disorder, is also very good.

    🌿The male and female leads separate due to a misunderstanding! When they meet again, the female lead…🌈It's a good story; the male and female leads reunite after seven years apart! What's annoying is that the female lead forgives her father and his mistress, and the male lead never knew the second female lead was the mistress's daughter, nor did he know that the second female lead instigated her mother to have a child, affecting the female lead's college entrance exam. I found that really irritating.
