   ① I don't even want to talk about this male lead (he's been expelled from the male lead category in my opinion). He said he could tell at a glance that the female lead was a gold digger, and then when she was about to date his nephew, he kept interfering. The female lead and his nephew were having a perfectly fine relationship; she didn't cheat anyone out of money or harm anyone. She got the company based on her own merit, and this guy, doubting her grades, actually called the school! When she was harassed by another boss at his company, he actually said, "Isn't this what you wanted?!" This guy constantly verbally attacked and looked down on the female lead, even badmouthing her in front of his nephew. The nephew, being oblivious, was sent abroad. If he weren't rich and powerful, would he be so condescending towards the female lead? [Smile] I kept watching because I wanted the guy to suffer, but he even stopped her from marrying someone else. Then, in the happy ending followed by an epilogue about her pregnancy, the guy said, "I think you're still young." If you really think that, then you should have used protection! 😠 This guy is just a terrible person. Having read so many novels over the years, I never read sad endings, but I hope for one, so I don't know why the rating is quite high, haha ​​🙃 (There are still many flaws in the middle). ② This male lead is much better, and the female lead has a strong sense of agency. Even after falling in love, he doesn't change his habit of exploiting the female lead's sympathy to make her love him more. This is also related to his parents' relationship; his mother's obsessive personality led him to believe this was normal love. The female lead seems to run away a few times, but in the end, the female lead gradually corrects the male lead's personality (there's also the male lead's father's guidance, otherwise, the male lead wouldn't realize his mistakes—he's not related by blood, he's a good person). The male lead loves the female lead very much, and the female lead is also very good, always maintaining her own agency. Highly recommended! [Kissing emoji]
