    The first book features He Ji, a rough and tough construction foreman with dark skin and a roguish manner. He falls for the timid landlady, Su Yan, upon their first meeting. He deliberately breaks the air conditioner to create an opportunity to get closer, and while fixing it, he can't help but tease this delicate flower: "I've lived for thirty years, and this is the first time I've seen such a seductive landlady!" From forcefully entering her life to protecting her in everything, even glaring at the workers' jokes: "My woman, you dare to stare at her like that?" He constantly says "I like you," but in reality, he goes out in the rain at three in the morning to buy fever reducers, spoiling the delicate girl so much that she can't even open a mineral water bottle cap. The second book features Zhou Zihao, a bald man with a full back tattoo, who always says "I like you, so what?" He corners Jiang Wei in the stairwell upon their first meeting and acts arrogantly. This rough-looking man toils away on construction sites during the day, then squats outside a primary school teacher's house peeling lobsters at night: "Look at your skinny arms and legs, you need to eat more to withstand my pampering!" He misunderstands Jiang Wei talking too much with a male colleague, then simply picks her up and slings her over his shoulder: "I'll teach you what the three obediences and four virtues are when we get home!" He's full of lewd talk, but his actions show he cherishes his wife like the apple of his eye, handling everything from fixing plumbing to beating up thugs. Even when his mother-in-law is hospitalized, he dares to pat his chest and shout: "I'll cover the money, just give me a smile!" The third book features Chu Cheng, a retired special forces soldier with a muscular physique and a mouth full of vulgar language. The night he found Ye Wanwan, who had run away from her arranged marriage, he smirked with a cigarette in his mouth: "Little girl, do you know what happens when you knock on a bachelor's door?" He was secretly smitten, but he yelled, "I'm doing a good deed!" Then he turned around and fought the local bully for her, getting his face covered in blood but still grinning: "Call me 'brother,' and I'll give you my life!" While repairing a car, he lifted his shirt to wipe his sweat, deliberately showing off his eight-pack abs: "Want to check the warranty period?" In the fourth book, mechanic Liu Li, with his foul mouth, was as fierce as a wolf when he rescued Liu Jiaojiao, who had been drugged: "If you mess around again, I'll really do it to you!" But then he gently covered her with a blanket. When pursuing his wife, he was full of flirtatious talk: "These hands of mine can fix engines, and they can make you feel comfortable too!" When he saw his little wife drawing other men, he was so jealous that he pinned her against the wall: "If you dare to draw any other men again, believe me, I'll make sure you can't get out of bed for three days!" He was fierce in words, but in reality, he even held the foot bath water carefully to avoid scalding his wife, spoiling his little white rabbit into a little drama queen.

Everyone in Rongzhong knew that Jiang Yuxing, known as a fairy among mortals, used different tricks every day to openly flirt with the aloof Jiang Yubai. "Elementary school genius, wanna kiss~" Faced with the fairy's advances, the latter remained aloof and restrained, like the unattainable moon in the sky, his reply always being: No, no, don't be silly. Everyone thought that a god would never fall for a fairy. But what they didn't know was that Jiang Yubai kept a diary filled with her name! "I like her so much, I like her the most! I want to be with her forever!" "Why does she look at other boys? It's so annoying, I want to lock her up! That way she'll belong to me forever!" Before, Jiang Yuxing always thought that someone as aloof as Jiang Yubai would never bow down to anyone. Little did she expect that the usually abstinent man was already her devoted lover, lusting after her day and night! Later—she was pinned against the door, her eyes reddening from his kisses: "Can't you control yourself a little!" The man's eyes were deep, his grip on her slender waist both devout and obsessive, his voice husky: "I'm sorry, I can't control myself anymore." —Because even the gods had long since succumbed to the allure of the heart. "Be good, one more kiss."
