   This book stands out in an era dominated by sweet romance novels with its stark realism. While its romantic subplot is somewhat weak, its reflections on self-worth and the essence of marriage make it a profound work within its genre. Recommended for readers who prefer "non-satisfying" and "strong plot" stories, especially those interested in gender role reversals within military marriage themes.

   This is the best survival novel I've read recently. I rarely read unfinished novels, and this is the only one I've been following closely. I highly recommend it! Each survival game in each episode is fresh and the content is superb. I love the female lead's teammates and how they heal and comfort each other. The male lead is also a fantastic character—rich and kind. I absolutely adore the storyline where the male and female leads get together! I highly recommend it!!!

   This is a highly recommended read that's perfect for watching while eating! At first, I thought the title was awful—it sounded like a spoiled, demanding female lead with "I love you, you love him" vibes. But after reading it, I realized it's a no-romance story, and the female lead is totally amazing! The way she speaks and acts is so satisfying; she has that "I'm the best in the world" feeling—it's so exhilarating! She has a strong sense of national pride, she's got the skills to insult people, she can even hit people, and she's completely unreasonable! Highly recommended! 🥰🥰

    The novels suitable for us female readers are all happy endings and both characters are virgins 😋 If there is any angst in these books, it's mostly the male lead who suffers, but a little angst is good for the soul. Every argument is a step in strengthening the relationship. Even if there's no misunderstanding, there's always someone to talk it out, and even the biggest misunderstanding will be resolved. Don't worry, you can read with confidence. In some books, the male lead is sometimes stubborn and doesn't speak up in time, which is understandable. The first book is about the male lead having a crush on the female lead and the female lead redeeming each other. It's sweet with a little bit of sourness, not a bland story. The second and fifth books are really good, very sweet and doting. The male lead is a clingy baby 😋 The second book is probably a broken mirror mended 🙉 The fourth book is about chasing after the wife, the female lead has a strong personality and it's also a bit angsty for the male lead. The sixth book is amazing, a bit angsty for the male lead, sweet and sour, but it gets very sweet later on. The beginning made me feel sour, but the plot is very attractive and you can keep reading. The male lead has principles, but later, because it's the female lead, he abandons his principles, so the misunderstandings are resolved. The eighth book has a male lead who is more of a father figure. If you like father-figure novels, come and read this one! The tenth book is from a while ago and it was one of my favorite books when I read it 😋 The misunderstandings between the male and female leads are easily resolved, making it a great read. The eleventh book is also super good. The male lead is stubborn and pretends not to care when the female lead pursues him, but his actions speak louder than words. However, the female lead doesn't know that after being reborn, she suddenly stops pursuing him and doesn't apply to the same university as him (the reason he tutors her is largely because he wants to attend the same university as her). The male lead gets anxious. It's a sweet and sour book with a touch of angst. If you like male and female leads, go read this! Because I'm a fan of female leads. The twelfth book is a heartwarming story about a puppy. The thirteenth book shows the male lead's love in the details, a very delicate love. The eighteenth book is really about the female lead trying to escape the male lead, but she can't escape him at all. It's a great read; the male lead is like an unshakeable sticker. I've read the nineteenth book many times; it's a good read about a broken mirror being mended. The female lead loses her memory (voluntarily) due to medical treatment for health reasons. The novel is sweet and sour with no female supporting characters, including but not limited to rivals or second female leads. I think there are no male supporting characters either. I haven't read it for a while, so I don't remember much. The last one is a sweet romance novel with the male lead having a crush on someone. The male lead is a bit of a father figure. Everyone has different tastes. If you don't like any of the books I recommend, just skip them. Some are ongoing, some are completed, but most are finished, so please pay attention. There's also a really good one, but I can only recommend twenty books at a time. The female lead is named Yu Zhichu. I think I've read it five times, but the author has stopped updating, so I'm leaving room for other books.

    The first book features a female protagonist who is brave, resourceful, and not promiscuous. She meticulously plans her ascension to the throne, her path to revenge seemingly bright. It's truly captivating; I'm completely mesmerized! A strong recommendation!!! ♥(｡￫V￩｡)♥ The second book features a female protagonist who is a fortune teller. She frequently spends nights with the male protagonist, but both only intend to use and kill each other. It's practically a fictional version of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" (✧∇✧). A highly recommended read!!! Both books are simply unbeatable; the female protagonists are both incredibly intelligent and well-developed characters!
