    Wen Ling, a cold, beautiful, and self-destructive news anchor, is deeply grieving the loss of her sister and the mental breakdown of her mother. After becoming roommates with Lu Yueheng, a rebellious, homophobic young man, the two constantly bicker. Lu Yueheng unexpectedly discovers Wen Ling's many charms, unconsciously paying attention to her, giving her gifts, and even caring for her when she's injured. Although he believes he's simply captivated by her beauty, he remains deeply infatuated. A drunken intimacy leads Lu Yueheng to believe they are in a relationship, only to be coldly rejected by Wen Ling. He then tries to win her over, believing she's just shy and wants a secret relationship, leading to a sweet and heartwarming story of a straight man's pursuit and redemption of his arch-rival.

    Hmmmm, I've added any books with a slightly sickly or weak character, so some might be books I've added to my bookshelf but haven't had time to read yet.

I personally quite liked the first, third, and fifth books, though I especially liked the third one because it featured food, while the first and fifth ones made me lose my appetite.
