The male lead is stubborn but secretly cares for the female lead, gradually losing control and getting closer to her. His initial hesitation stems from feeling that the female lead is just playing with him and doesn't truly like him. Looking forward to the later developments! [Admiration]

    Unrequited love spans two lifetimes. In her previous life, she mustered the courage to confess her feelings, only to be rejected. In this life, she suffers unrequited love, her heart aching with bitterness. How can one love someone only to be left with unrequited love? The regret of her past life suddenly manifests in a next life, and she chooses to be brave again. But when she returns to school, reliving their encounters and every moment together, she is still rejected. She wants to cry. Why is her love, rekindled, still trampled upon? It seems no one supports her being with him. Early romance is forbidden, and neither is a poor girl like her allowed to be with a rich man like him. The vast class difference... Unaware of the many obstacles to her love, her only stroke of luck was seeing her mother again—the one who gave her life, raised her, and loved her most. Even in poverty, her mother was willing to give her the best food. Life is full of regrets, but love isn't just one kind. He demanded money from her, and her mother was called in to ask for leave. Her mother, already working hard, had to come and deal with her troubles, which made her feel incredibly guilty. Later, she stopped talking to him. She went to university and worked hard at part-time jobs to support herself. That familiar voice, that familiar person, carried her away. She was at a loss. Hadn't he rejected her confession? Her bittersweet love, her unrequited affection, had actually made progress. Those days made her very happy. Aside from class, she spent all her time with him, like a happy married couple. This was the love she had dreamed of for two lifetimes. But she was also apprehensive, afraid his love was just a momentary lapse of judgment. He was so rich, she was so poor—what was there for her not to understand? She knew all too well about class differences. She was infatuated with love, yet tried to soberly detach herself. She proposed marriage to him, demanding a large dowry, which he agreed to. But later, heartbroken, she said she wanted to break up. He couldn't understand why someone could agree to marry him so quickly, only to break up just as soon as possible. Was he really going to lose her? Did she really love him?

In this marriage between equally powerful families, neither was willing to back down first. * When Zhan Nanpei and Li Qianqian had just divorced, someone asked him, "You just divorced like that? No regrets?" He was dressed in black, hands in his pockets, "It was a business marriage, so there's no question of regrets."

    I highly recommend the first and second ones; they're both incredibly good. The last two are also very good, although the bittersweet part of the last one isn't about the main characters, but rather about family and bullying. These two books by Ershuii are truly amazing!

    This is a great book. The middle part is a bit bittersweet, but thankfully it has a happy ending. The male lead is usually aloof, but he truly loves the female lead. The female lead is sick, but she's kind and funny at heart. Every character is very well-developed. It was the first serialized novel I ever followed.
