It's the first time an author hasn't portrayed the male lead as a domineering CEO, but rather as an approachable, gentle, and refined man, creating a strong visual impact and making the story truly enjoyable.

    🌸🌸🌸My personal 10.0! Everyone should check this out! Tomato No.1! Holy crap! This book is super good! Finally found something readable! Congratulations to "The God of Drama" for reaching a 9.9 rating! Another masterpiece after "Ten Days"! There's an actor named Chen Ling, a conman named Qi Xia, a junior uncle named Lin Du, a killing god named Yin Xiu, a man who doesn't lie named Cheng Shi, and a female celebrity named Xie Mi (all are super good). But my favorite is "The God of Drama".
