This is incredibly good! After reading this book, other books seem bland and uninteresting. The male and female leads knew each other before marriage but didn't date. After marriage, the male lead falls in love first and subtly helps the female lead's adoptive parents and sister escape the control of her biological father. Under the double oppression of his mother and grandfather, the male lead accumulates power and eventually becomes the one in charge. The female lead, in any situation, manages to live well. When she learns that her adoptive parents want to adopt their son, she strives to protect her and her sister's interests. She works hard to get into a good university, helps her adoptive parents escape the label of "childless," and works hard to earn money. Under pressure from her biological father, she tests the male lead's limits and uses him to escape her father's clutches. In the not-so-happy first half of her life, she breaks free and achieves her own goals.

Although both are stories about transmigrating into a book, the first one features a villainous female supporting character who rises to power and changes her own fate. The second one features a tragic female lead who transmigrates back to her own world to change her destiny. Both share the commonality of arranged marriages leading to love, pre-natal betrothals, and childhood sweethearts. In both stories, the female lead is a guiding lover, and the male lead later becomes a devoted follower. The difference lies in the male lead's personality; both resonate with me deeply. The first story features a cold, aloof CEO who, due to childhood trauma, is reluctant to speak, but through the female lead's guidance, he opens up to love. He appears cold on the surface but is warm-hearted inside. The second story features a seemingly ruthless, even tyrannical, male lead who is actually a sharp-tongued, arrogant, but soft-hearted follower only towards the female lead.

The first book features a mountain goddess—a rose spirit—as the female lead. It's completely angsty and incredibly good, but I feel like not many people have read it. The second book is about mutual redemption between the male and female leads. It's not a typical naive/sweet story; the plot is also very engaging, and the characters are well-developed. It's super good, but some plot points and settings will definitely differ from reality.

I absolutely loved the first one; the female lead is like a little sun, bringing warmth to the male lead and his family, and their interactions are heartwarming. The second one is a transmigration novel, and like its title suggests, it's quite interesting. The two get to know each other and begin to fall in love. The third one is also a transmigration novel, with the female lead affected by a system, but not too severely. There's an age gap between the two, and the male lead dotes on her. The fourth one features a female lead who awakens her powers, leading to an arranged marriage and three children. Only after awakening do the female and male leads begin to truly understand each other and spend time together.
