   These books all have relatively large frameworks, and they don't focus on romance; each has its own distinct protagonist. The first book features a female lead whose father is a completely male-centric character.

The third book has a very large framework, and the story of the real and fake heiresses is very engaging, especially the prison section.

    This is it, everyone can check it out first. At first, I was misled by the beginning and thought it was a downgrade in intelligence, but... I found that the later parts are really good, especially the female lead who is lying down but mentally exhausted, becoming the mediator for the whole family, and she always has a lot of eloquent arguments, involving the country, it's really rich... Everyone should go watch it, if you don't like it, I'll kill you.

    In terms of strong female leads alone, I think these two books are quite similar, with many foreshadowing elements. The first one is a strong female lead plus an ensemble piece, which is very enjoyable and I found completely satisfying to read.

    I think both of them are very well written. The first one has a particularly novel theme and the story is very well written, not clichéd at all, not stiff, and without any scenes that make you angry. The second one feels a bit similar to Hua Hua's; it depicts an ensemble cast, the female lead is ruthless, and the plot doesn't drag at all.
