"Desire to Stain Tumi": The author is very intelligent. The heroine Shen Qingli has been secretly in love with the male protagonist Gu Heng for eight years, and there is a "one-night stand" plot at the beginning. The male protagonist is a powerful person in the capital, and he becomes obsessed with the female protagonist at every step. Later, there were changes in the family, and the male protagonist sent the female protagonist away. They reunited many years later. The female protagonist had a new boyfriend, and the male protagonist began to pursue her. The two went through twists and turns, and ended happily, with many sadistic episodes during the period. "Life is like meeting for the first time": composed by Meizi Huang Shiyu. The female protagonist Zhao Zimo is an ordinary white-collar worker with a calm and controlled personality, while the male protagonist Jiang Xiuren is a love prodigal. The difference in family status caused them to fall in love passionately and at the same time despise each other. Jiang Xiuren once used extreme methods to end the relationship, and Zhao Zimo left calmly. In the later period, the male protagonist chased his wife, and the ending was HE, while the deputy CP was BE. The whole story was very sad.
