   First book: It's roughly a 1v1 romance with a captivity plot, but both characters are virgins. (There's a side couple.) The seme: Wei Xianyu (Salty Fish Princess), a super cute character, love-struck, a henpecked husband, and a crybaby. The uke: Ning Tiao (Lemon), seemingly a bit stubborn but soft-hearted, a boxer (I love boxers!! ^_^), I love watching our Tiao Tiao escape and then get caught, cough cough cough. I really love this couple. Putting aside the writing style, I think the characters alone are incredibly cute, and the plot is quite sweet (after all, how can it be called love without love, um). In short, I highly recommend everyone to read it! (*σ´∀`)σ. Second book: It's roughly a 1v1 romance with a captivity plot, but both characters are virgins. (There are also side couples) Top: Ji Hanyu, is a real ghost. He cries when he sees He Qiu injured (I think that's how it is, please don't hit me if I'm wrong T^T). Sigh, this part really hits me (I just love crybabies, although Ji Hanyu might not be ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ). This top is a bit crazy, yes, but I think the character design is very satisfying. Bottom: He Qiu, I love reading about dog training, this is so good. I don't want anyone to disobey him in dog training literature (okay, it's okay if you do). I don't know how to describe this bottom, but I think he's very cute. (Sorry, I might not be able to get over the word "cute", please don't scold me) \(`Δ')/ Third book: Well, it probably has a captivity plot but it's 1v1 and both are virgins. (No side couples) Top: Yan Jing, is a rather scheming green tea top. I want to read green tea tops for a lifetime. Bottom: Lin Yuji, I feel the older brother is a bit naive. I especially like the part where the bottom gets jealous ₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞ ̑̑ Fourth book: Well, it's probably about imprisonment but it's 1v1 and both are virgins. (There's a side couple) Top: Xu Huaishu, he's really perverted, but he also really dotes on Miao An. (Yes, I think he really does dote on her. If you don't think so, please don't scold me, okay?) Bottom: Miao An, well, it's probably like a little white rabbit being tricked by a wolf in sheep's clothing and then completely taken advantage of. Yeah.

    Reader note

    Family, I recently stumbled upon a gem of a novel—"Shocking! Whose Poor Little Ghost Climbed Out of the Grave?"—And devoured it in one go; it's absolutely addictive! The protagonist, Lin Yan, is truly tragic. At 13, he was exposed as a fake young master of the Shen family. After returning to the Lin family, he suffered brutal abuse, and on his 18th birthday, he was framed and killed, only discovering in death that he wasn't actually a Lin family child. But fate plays a cruel trick; he actually crawled out of his grave. In the early stages, Lin Yan is both adorable and pitiful, always hovering around the mature and composed Fu Yuchen, his constant calls of "Sir" melting hearts. "Sir, please look at me~" "Sir, am I the cutest little ghost in the world?" Lin Yan's soft, dependent nature around Fu Yuchen is incredibly endearing. But later, Lin Yan becomes incredibly powerful! Those who bullied him are all dealt with severely. He plays with dice, smiling as he asks, "One hand or one leg? If you can't choose, you can kneel at my feet like a dog..." This contrast is absolutely brilliant! Fu Yuchen dotes on Lin Yan immensely. Although he couldn't see her at first, her presence gradually became integrated into his life. Whenever Lin Yan encountered danger or was in pain, being near Fu Yuchen provided relief, and Fu Yuchen unknowingly began to care about this special "little devil." This novel blends many appealing elements such as dual male leads, pure love, virginity, age gap, domineering CEO, sweet romance, a touch of fantasy, and subtle past-life/reincarnation themes. The plot is full of twists and turns, the author's writing is delicate, and the characters' emotions are portrayed very well. Watching Lin Yan and Fu Yuchen's interactions will make you smile involuntarily! Everyone, hurry up and read it, you won't regret it!

    Reader note

    The protagonist (gong) is extremely possessive. The story revolves around a eunuch and a mad prince. The writing is superb, humorous, and engaging. The antagonist (shou) feels incredibly real, brave, and resourceful. Although handsome, his appearance isn't overly described, making it natural and not awkward; he attracts others entirely through his personal charm. It's the best "popular shou" (though not quite) novel I've ever read. The gong is initially a prince, decisive, intelligent, and a master strategist. Later, he inherits the throne and wields absolute power. The interactions between the gong and shou are completely natural and unpretentious, making for a very enjoyable read with lasting appeal. The characters are well-developed and vivid; even the supporting characters aren't just background figures. The plot is exhilarating, and the romance is even more satisfying. The gong is extremely possessive. "In Zhu Qinyu's world, there is only Shen He; but in Shen He's world, there is the entire world. Zhu Qinyu is jealous of that 'world.'"
