   This is a workplace romance novel. The female protagonist is lively, cheerful, and has high emotional intelligence. She is also very brave and good at seizing opportunities. She starts as an ordinary intern, but she dares to speak and act. When faced with an unreasonable layoff, she bravely stands up for herself and fights for her rights, which attracts the attention of the male protagonist. He gives her an interview opportunity at a large company. After joining the company, she studies hard, works diligently, and becomes a shining woman. Of course, the male protagonist's protection and guidance are indispensable along the way. Although the male protagonist's personality is not great due to family reasons and he is not serious about the female protagonist at first, he still teaches her a lot. He protects her when she first enters the workplace and avoids a lot of trouble. The female protagonist meets many good teachers and friends along the way, and everyone teaches her a lot. This book has workplace competition, but no female rivalry. Moreover, the description of workplace life is very professional. I believe the author has actually worked in a foreign company.

Life is tough, writing is hard, and without a debut and no traffic, I have to promote it myself. The female lead is intelligent, doesn't compete with men, isn't love-struck, and has logic without being idiotic. The low rating is because there aren't many reviews. It's a good story that doesn't glorify feudal society! It features a female lead who doesn't fall in love, a humanoid emperor [facepalm], a character who grows, female mutual support, a slice-of-life palace intrigue, and an ensemble cast. The writing style is also quite good. The title of my humble work is rather cliché, but it's definitely not a melodramatic story. I'll be updating twice a day. Please take a look, thank you!

    Yes, yes, they're all by the same author. I stayed up all night reading them in one go, and the disgusting nature of humanity really gave me a profound understanding. It's better to read them in the order I recommended them; the layers build up gradually. I cried during the last book. Qingtian's life is truly tragic, but she tried so hard to live. I thought she had made a scene, confessed to her family, and changed for the better, but she was still sold because of the dowry. Her sister-in-law later married her brother only asking that he wouldn't beat her, but when she was sold, the dowry demanded was the highest, and later she kept complaining about how it was too low. How could they do this? Well, I'm pretty laid-back and don't have much ambition for fame or fortune. My family is just an ordinary Chinese family. But after reading for 11 years, this is the first time I've seen such a concrete portrayal of the inherent evil of human nature. It's not something that can be changed by yelling, cursing, or confessing. I really, really recommend it. I can't read any more books about human nature now; I need to find something else to read later. I really admire the author. How much life experience must one have to have to see things so clearly? How much disappointment must one have to write that human nature is actually unchangeable? How good must one's writing be to produce such a delicate, rich, and engaging narrative?
