The heroine was frustrated for most of the book. Although I don't like to read cool novels, I felt that the male protagonist was not that in love. From the beginning to the end, the man manipulated the woman. It seemed that the heroine was stupid. She wanted to assassinate but had no strategy. She was always exposed by the male protagonist, and the male protagonist never treated the female protagonist well. The love between the two came out of nowhere, not because of appreciation of each other's personality, but because they fell in love because they spent time together. Even if they are not evenly matched, they should at least be somewhat equal. The male protagonist is always aloof, teasing the female protagonist as if he knows everything, and the way to beg the female protagonist for reconciliation is to be miserable and have intimate contact. The male protagonist has never put himself in the heroine's shoes. This novel is truly the most breathtaking I have read this year.
Could it be that Teacher You also went to lose weight? I thought of using the surname Xi [laughing]
The heroine's father, as a royalist, is a political enemy of the hero's regent. Because of the struggle in the court, a marriage begins with mutual suspicion and testing. They fall in love and kill each other, and gradually develop feelings in the "fake love". The heroine and her family gradually understand the hero's ambitions and the emperor's unbearable throne. The hero also gradually sees the wisdom and magnificence of the noble ladies in the world. They pretend to marry before they fall in love. This is the first time I read a story written by Fourth Sister You. The plot is not as complex and grand as I imagined. Xiao Tian's story is amazing.
I watched it on and off for several months.
One piece of paper grants marriage, two sides are on guard. There is no fierce and bloody conflict in the whole book. It uses fireworks to unfold the game and heartbeat of the male and female protagonists on a daily basis. The masked couple slowly fall in love with each other through restraint. [Orange Candy] Got it
Nice. The reversal of highs and lows is also interesting.
Of all the articles written by Fourth Sister, this is the worst, worst, worst. Very raw feelings. It's just a bit misleading. If this is compared with the previous ones, really compared with Songyin, and the old aunt, those who can score 100 points, this one is only 40.
I like the fourth sister so much, I hope I can always read her articles
Happy birthday, fourth sister, I'm waiting for your new post [kiss]
