    This is not an advertisement or a female-oriented novel; I've already enthusiastically recommended it to all my colleagues. Personally, I think it's the best work by Tomato in 2025, comparable to the top works on Qidian. The downside is that it requires a certain level of education; those who haven't gone to university shouldn't read it, lest they misunderstand it and end up leaving negative reviews.
