    The first one is absolutely fantastic! It's already finished! This urban romance novel has an extremely profound core, and the author's thoughts are truly inspiring. I took notes while reading it. It mainly focuses on urban life but covers a wide range of knowledge, making it a masterpiece! I'm most satisfied with the female lead in the first book! The second and third books are also new novels written by the same author. The author is currently busy and updates irregularly, but they are also great and can be read later when they're more complete.
