   It's a good-looking novel. The male and female protagonists are both strong. The female protagonist is slightly better. Hahaha. The female protagonist has various awesome identities. The parents and family she found are also very good. I especially like the female protagonist Lin Qingye. The female protagonist is really super awesome. She has a lot of big friends. Moreover, Qingqing is particularly far-sighted in every task she implements. The male protagonist is a domestic husband. This is one of Qingqing's trump cards. I really like Qingqing.

   [Planted] The author's conception, writing style, plot, and character description are all very good. Simply put, this book cannot be thrown away when you read it. This plot is similar, but the author only borrowed a little bit of jealousy, but the dumplings he made were rare and delicious. The author wrote a single heroine, but gave so much ink to the eldest daughter of the Shen family. In my opinion, the foundation for dual heroines has been laid. So is there a possibility of dual heroines? Come on! Come on!
