    First story: A novel and imaginative ancient romance. Absolutely beyond your imagination. Sweet with a touch of angst. The female lead transmigrates into a painting without arms, legs, heart, spleen, lungs, or kidneys. Unable to move, she watches men bathe within the painting, peeping at them. She sneaks out at night to eat their snacks, foolishly leaving notes to provoke them, only to be infuriated by the cunning male lead. He then asks her, "How's my physique?" The male lead is cunning and constantly flirts. It made my heart race and my face flush. The content is unique and unexpected. There will probably be some angst later on. I was hooked after reading the first chapter and couldn't stop. Sisters who like this kind of story, this one is definitely worth reading! "The Regent's Painting Came to Life" Second story: A angst-filled plot with twists and turns. The early part is ambiguous, teasing, heart-pounding, and slightly angsty. The real second female lead appears, bringing even more angst. The story becomes even more heart-wrenching later on. The most unique thing about this book is that (the second female lead you think she is isn't actually the second female lead, but someone else entirely). For those who enjoy novel and angsty stories, this is definitely worth reading: *The Book of Two Realms: The Emperor's Imprisoned Phoenix Finally Breaks Its Neck*
