   The first book prefers marriage first and love later. The female protagonist is cute and the male protagonist is a scheming type. In the second book, the male and female protagonists are childhood sweethearts. The male protagonist prefers the female protagonist both before and after growing up. The overall story is relatively warm. In the third book, everyone except the female protagonist is reborn (the reborn person was in the previous life). There is a reason for her rebirth. The heroine in her previous life had a relatively hard life and did many wrong things under the stimulation and instigation of others. But in fact, she just wanted someone who only belonged to her and only loved her. When she was five years old, she was really a good, good, well-behaved little girl.
