Liu Guang heard this in the toilet and came out with hair growth cream on his head, "You have a chubby figure. If you don't lose weight quickly, won't your wife dislike you for being such a pig?"

🍷The first book: the heroine has no special identity, she just loves the God of War, she is crazy, but it feels a bit like a black officer, because people in high positions will not be so stupid. 🍷The second book is super good-looking, the heroine makes money by painting, the hero starts as a battalion commander, and there is no strong female protagonist. This is the only book I have read so far that does not skip chapters.
