It feels like every book I've read introduces a few male supporting characters at the start, but the female lead doesn't like any of them. Then some cold, powerful man with an impressive background appears out of nowhere and falls in love at first sight. So boring. I want one where the male supporting character introduced at the beginning is actually the male lead. Not sure if you get what I mean 🤧

This one is absolutely beautiful, and the setting is very novel. At first, the heroine thought that she had passed through the book, but she gradually realized that something was wrong with the world. She obviously wanted to stay away from the hero of the original story, but there was a force that insisted on trapping her and the hero together, and insisted that the two fall in love. The male protagonist was originally a piece of code that existed to punish the female protagonist, but he awakened to self-awareness. He originally just wanted to get rid of the controlled life, but slowly he developed a different feeling for the heroine, and finally they worked together to try their best to reverse the world that imprisoned them. He knows that the heroine is free, but he also hopes that the free bird of the heroine can stay in his world.
