   Help! I really can't find any books I like lately, but there haven't been any updates for two days. So I found another one I finished reading. I remember the general plot: a female protagonist who reincarnates as a lazy bum. She's very smart, though definitely not as carefree as a typical female lead. Her older sister is a supporting character, also reincarnated, and I think she dies quite early, so she's not annoying. The female protagonist essentially redeems the male protagonist; their connection started a long time ago, which is why the male protagonist saved her sister in his past life. There's no mistaken identity; the male protagonist is actually quite intelligent.

   😳It's been so long since I've encountered a novel that suits my taste so well! The plot is captivating, the writing is excellent, and the characters are all vividly portrayed. I've always had a soft spot for ensemble casts, and although this book mainly revolves around the male and female leads, 😎 it's easy to see that every character has been carefully crafted by the author. Besides the main characters, I especially love the character Liu Yifu. Indeed, we strong, independent women should definitely read this kind of female-oriented novel!
