Looking for books like *So Heart-Pounding! So Addictive! The CP I Ship Is Going Wild*. I want angsty pure-love stories that hurt both physically and emotionally, but without contrived drama. Everything has to make sense, and the characters have to be completely powerless to change things. Do any exist, friends? I just put random books on my shelf. I’m asking because I don’t have anything like this.

How could there be such a perfect book? ! I really loved it so much. By the end of the first part, I already felt that it was really great. Although there were a lot of emotions in it, it was very emotional. I cried, laughed, and got goosebumps while watching it. It was so enjoyable to listen to the book. There is actually a parallel time and space later. Parallel time and space has made up for a lot of regrets. I think it's great. As a result, there is also Parallel Time and Space 2. The wife is so good. The relationship between the male and female protagonists is quite delicate. I like it so much. I highly recommend listening to chapter 607 and reading chapter 920.
