   (I don't mean to deliberately complain. I read too many books on Tomato and I want to write a book review. [Blow kiss]) I read this book a month ago. I haven't finished it at that time. I should have read more than 90 chapters. Then I read a few chapters and stopped reading. If you are a person who likes the male protagonist to have a more forceful personality, the female protagonist is as tough and uplifting as hibiscus, the female protagonist is shy, and the male protagonist loves to tease the female protagonist (probably she seems to have forgotten [sad]) or you just want to find a sweet story that you can read without thinking. The reason why I don't want to read the next few chapters is because the heroine was bullied by her classmates because she was fat in her youth and dared not admit that she and the hero were in the same high school. Because I have escaped this too many times. I like to read female-oriented novels, so this is a bit unbearable for me. But as the saying goes, "Fatness is the scar of girlhood." Finally, I wish Lin Wu and He Jingzhou to be together forever!
