   This book surprised me; there were many delightful moments. However, perhaps because I've read so many books, my expectations were raised, so overall, I didn't find the story particularly angsty. I even found it a little silly and funny. Also, the author's writing style might be slightly weaker, but that's understandable, as writing skills improve gradually. It's still quite good. Especially regarding the part about Gu's time travel, it wasn't explained clearly enough, leaving a slightly confusing impression. It felt a little strange, but it's not too bad. Otherwise, it's very good; the story's development and the romance between the two main characters are well-developed. I particularly like stories with two male leads, and those who enjoy stories about shadow guards might want to give it a try. There's also a secondary couple, Shadow One and Shadow Nine, but it wasn't explicitly mentioned, only briefly touched upon. Overall, it's good, but if you're simply looking for a well-written story, you'll need to think about it carefully.

    ① Highly recommend the first book, it's amazing! 😁 The protagonist is freed from the sacrifices and missions of his previous life, and after being reborn, he finds himself as a 10-year-old child, entering the Shadow Guard camp for training. Twelve years of arduous training make him one of the top Shadow Guards, bestowed the name "Gu Ning," and becoming one of the top four Shadow Guards. [Kiss][Kiss][Kiss] ② It's incredibly satisfying, a must-read for those who want a story with two lifetimes of pure love [shy][shy][shy]. The secondary couple is also great, and the logic is very clear. The Prince Yan's mansion is surrounded by soldiers, and the Shadow Guard is wiped out protecting Si Lan Yan. Later, the protagonist suddenly appears to save the prince, and they both jump off a cliff and are reborn. A satisfying story with no misunderstandings and no angst. ③ This one is also very good, a little angsty [crying][crying][crying]. The protagonist is reborn and still loves the other protagonist, but the other protagonist wasn't reborn and unknowingly falls in love with the protagonist. It's bittersweet. These books are all worth checking out, highly recommended! [Heart][heart][heart]
