   The first book has a "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" element. The male lead is happy for a while after marrying the female lead, but then he suddenly avoids her due to a misunderstanding. Later, they divorce, and the male lead tries to get back in front of her. Overall, it's okay, with no major flaws. The second book has a female lead who pretends to be stupid while living at the male lead's house. During their time together, the male lead falls for her, and they're about to get married when he fakes his death. The female lead later discovers she's pregnant. When the male lead reappears with a new identity, their child is already in kindergarten. I preferred the earlier development.

The author's literary background is profound, far surpassing that of novice authors. The writing is divine, incredibly delicate. The male lead's love is passionate, but not mindless. The female lead is brilliant; after reading, you'll not only fall in love with the male lead but also with the female lead. Suitable for discerning, seasoned readers; a unique and extreme emotional rollercoaster, not clichéd. The pacing is steady, starting slowly but building up to a sweeter, more intense feeling as you read. It has a grand scope, and reading it will give you a mental boost. The plot takes off after chapter ten; you'll come back to thank me after you finish.
