2023 Reads: Ones I Discovered and Finished This Year
I’m just saying these are readable by my standards for Jinjiang novels this year. The protagonists aren’t perfectly written or moral paragons. Don’t nitpick and make reading harder on yourself; if you don’t like it, just leave.

This male lead is the most disgusting to me. I didn't like it from the beginning, and I won't even like it after watching the extras.
Feeling sorry for the second male lead? How about giving you such a person in real life? Ruining your reputation so that you can't get married is worse than being a shady outlaw.
His grandma, the most speechless male lead in the history of reading books, felt sorry for all the male actors and rewarded one male actor [split]
It's so funny that even if this man meets the heroine again in his next life, he still has no intention of marrying her.
In fact, I feel sorry for the second male lead, for two reasons: firstly, from the beginning to the end, the second male lead didn't know what the female protagonist was afraid of, why she was hiding from him, and why she didn't even give her a chance; secondly, the second male lead confirmed his vow on the way to see the female protagonist desperately. The second male lead has done a lot of things that were not done by human beings in this life, and there is no reason for this, but the heroine only knows these things at the end of the whole story, so the reason why the female protagonist keeps rejecting the second male lead is because of what the second male lead did in his previous life. In his previous life, the second male lead never treated the female lead badly, nor did he have any troubles in the back house. The only thing he didn't have was his reputation and children, because the female lead got it from someone else at that time. The second male concubine has a sense of what he has taken away. In this life, the second male protagonist still has no intention of marrying the female protagonist, but the female protagonist does not know. The female protagonist has always rejected the second male concubine because in the previous life, in the eyes of the second male protagonist, nothing happened at all. If the second male protagonist finally learns about what happened in the previous life or in this life he still plans not to give the female protagonist a title and the female protagonist finds out, I think the second male protagonist will not be pitiful...
After watching the extra, I felt that the second male lead was even more disgusting. He was also motivated by sex. Father Guo was able to remarry a commoner widow, took the initiative to record his stepdaughter in the ancestral genealogy, and basically gave the heroine all the dignity that a powerful man in feudal society could give. On the other hand, Guo Xiao was paranoid and possessive in both lives. He never considered the heroine from the beginning to the end. His first wife could only be a princess or other noble daughter. The heroine in the previous life was not even qualified to have children. The children in the second life must be recorded in the name of the first wife. It can be said that he only regarded the heroine as a pet from the bottom of his heart. If there is no male protagonist, the second female protagonist will be imprisoned by him in a more shady way. Apart from the affection that the second male protagonist makes up on his own, his existence is really a disaster for the female protagonist. Although it is an old novel that is several years old, almost none of the male characters in it are likable. Even the princess has a high status and still has to rely on men to survive. The heroines of both generations are very pitiful. Some people say that she is not as strong-willed as her mother. She is an orphan whose parents have died. Her property was taken away from her and she was sold as a concubine. It is impossible for anyone who is a little fierce or assertive to survive, let alone being given to Guo Xiao by Liang Shao. Although she is too soft and stupid, she is still clear enough for both men, which is already rare.
Very disgusting extra. I hated this Guo from the beginning to the end. Fortunately, he died in the end.
After watching the extra, I completely gave up on the second male lead, t. Scum m. Male d.
Maybe it's me bt, I feel like the second male lead could be a little more miserable
Who the hell needs your favor? The heroine is a human being, you piece of shit [clown]
