   This one, hahaha [smirk] It's a quick transmigration story about an older female supporting character who helps the male lead rise to power. Older women have three advantages: elegance, intellect, and the ability to date younger men. I highly recommend this one; it captures the charm of a May-December romance. The female lead is cunning, but it's not cloying. It's a sweet story, and both leads are virgins…

    💗Super good! The female lead is an ordinary girl from a vastly different social class. I never imagined someone like her would have such an extraordinary opportunity. She's intelligent, resourceful, and shrewd. The male lead is her roommate's boyfriend. When her roommate video calls him, the female lead will inadvertently appear in the frame. Her character makes her roommate feel completely unsuspecting. Amazing! [Masterpiece][Masterpiece][Masterpiece]

    The Heir: From initially disliking the older woman to later being unable to forget her, it's a huge face-slapping scene. The female lead is an ordinary woman in her forties, while the male lead is an unattainable beauty. She is also a single woman in her forties who is forced to have a child. At forty, she marries the son of her first love. It's actually quite good!
