   "Qing Chao Mu Mu" and "Qing Huan Ci" are both works with excellent writing and plot. The heroine in it is smart and courageous, and takes the overall situation into consideration. The writing style is also fresh and interesting. "Gong Qiang Liu" and "Xing Zhi Wan" are both sweet and sad. The writing styles of the two works are somewhat similar, and both stories are told from the protagonist's first-person perspective. This is the first time I have seen this writing style from this perspective. It is very novel and very immersive.
