    Who hasn't read this yet? The heroine Ginger Sugar is like a weed with strong vitality! The story begins when the fiancé who has been abroad for three years comes back, but he doesn't come back alone. He also brings his new girlfriend abroad. The first thing the fiancé does when he comes back is to break off the engagement with the heroine. The heroine leaves without saying a word. You thought this was another story about a prodigal son waiting for his return, but no, no, no, the heroine turns around and blows up the man's house! I also asked for 10,000 yuan from my fiancé's family. When my fiancé was studying abroad, my fiancé's father broke his leg. The family's factory was only supported by the heroine. The orders in the factory were also brought in by the heroine. As soon as the heroine left, the fiancé's family immediately dropped a large order, and he had to come back to ask for help from the heroine. To be honest, I have never seen a heroine with such a quick mind. She has high emotional intelligence and can talk, and she can especially give people emotional value. I have really learned a lot of speaking skills from following the heroine, and the heroine who is good to her will return the favor twice as much. If the heroine says something bad about her, she will retaliate on the spot. The main thing is not to get angry overnight. This female protagonist is really great and has a special power. I feel that no matter who the male protagonist is, the female protagonist can live her own life well, because she is a person with her own core, very clear about what she wants, very tenacious, she is a shining little sun, and she does not need to rely on the light of others. After seeing too many weak heroines, when I saw the heroine in this book, I felt that such a heroine is more likable and powerful!
