   I recommend this book. The plot is roughly as follows: the male and female leads are engaged. The male lead comes from a very wealthy family and has been in love with the female lead since childhood. They've never met, but he always thinks of her and even goes abroad to train himself for her. Upon returning home, his first act to get closer to her is to make her his assistant. The female lead comes from a high-ranking family, but her mother died early, and her father neglected her. She grew up under the care of her grandparents. Due to childhood trauma, she lost some of her memories, including her first meeting with the male lead. She graduated from a prestigious university and later became a diplomat. For the female lead, their feelings developed gradually over time, but for the male lead, it was all premeditated. It's a strong, pure love story. The female lead has her own career, and the male lead is deeply in love with her, completely devoted to her, and deeply respects her. It's incredibly sweet! At the same time, the male lead is the female lead's savior.

    🌈①The mountain has trees, but the trees have no branches; I love you, but you do not know. The female lead has secretly loved the male lead for eight years and they have a whirlwind marriage that blossoms into love. Their relationship is perfectly balanced, with a sweet and harmonious feel. They experience the bittersweetness of life on their own, living their own lives. The plot unfolds gently, and the characters are vividly portrayed. For the female lead, it's a case of unrequited love coming true; for the male lead, it's a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love. 🌈②The male lead, born in a red zone, has strong moral principles, is polite, respectful of women, and believes in the long-term nature of relationships. He is gentle, considerate, always willing to admit his mistakes, and always puts his partner first. He appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside. The simple, beautiful, and realistic female protagonist, Jiang Mingzhi, is bold in love and hate, decisive in letting go, and quick to settle scores, never allowing herself to be troubled. Reborn into a high school, despite her past life's experiences, she remains humble and extremely self-disciplined, making steady progress in her studies. In both her love life and personal life, she lives as a strong, independent woman, gradually confirming her own feelings. Even during arguments, she gives each other a way out—this is true love, undiminished by the initial excitement, maintaining mutual support despite the long-distance relationship, providing each other with security, and protecting each other's imperfections. 🌈③ The novel skillfully blends everyday family life with national themes, creating vivid and multifaceted characters with distinct personalities. The plot flows smoothly with well-paced twists and turns, making the portrayal of family life engaging and the national themes relevant. Every girl in this novel is so clear-headed and charismatic! It's also very heartwarming, showing the mutual respect and kindness among women.
