Looking for books similar to *Qing Qing Wei Qi*. Any couples with this kind of dynamic? The male lead is a little devious but reliable, steady and proper, especially with the female lead 😍😍😍 Ahhh, I love it. The female lead is weaker than him at first, but later surpasses him and becomes incredibly strong. A real growth arc (especially as they get close...)

Possessiveness and love rush towards each other and grow together. I also like the female villain's refusal to admit defeat and her fight with the sky. Zheng Laner is simply his version of An Lingrong, and Concubine Rong is like his version of Concubine Hua... Really good writing

The sweetness of first love on campus, the male protagonist's reluctance after a passive breakup due to other reasons, and the tortuous process of getting back together. The female protagonist is beautiful, grown-up, capable, and sober in the world. The male protagonist and female protagonist love her so much (to the core of her bones). It's super sweet after compounding, so sprinkle sugar on it every day~
