BG Second-Chance Romance
I do love angsty, bittersweet stories, but I'm a little picky about the writing. Feel free to add suggestions in the comments~
Chaotic Neutral and Evil Protagonists
In any case, they don't qualify as good people
The Ex-Wife Chasing Crematorium
An old trope I can never get tired of. I like self-reliant heroines who do not make themselves miserable, dislike angst for angst's sake, and dislike stories that revolve around the male lead.

The heroine has no intention of being a mistress. When she got married, she didn't know that the hero had a first love. After the marriage, she was the poor first wife who was betrayed and suffered a miscarriage. Even without the heroine, the hero and the heroine would not be able to be together. The hero is relatively independent and self-reliant, and the second heroine is quiet and gentle with different ideas. The same, and the heroine is also independent, brave, smart, and has a very similar personality to the hero. They are both struggling young people of that era. The hero fell in love with the heroine while getting along with her. The heroine is very charming, but don't make it seem like the heroine breaks them up. Talents like the heroine will not be a mistress.
Looking back at Arrow a few years ago, I can't describe my surprise at that time. It's short and concise, Zhou Yun's dare to love and hate, and Tian Dong's error correction theory. The souls of these two people are indeed similar. No matter what they do, they are destined to achieve something. Talking about the love between the two, it was very unbearable at first. Zhou Yun was at fault and Tian Dong was at fault. One was 18 years old and the other was 22. I think both of them were angry and unwilling, so the mistake got bigger and bigger, and in the end both sides suffered. Let's talk about time and elixir. After the expansion, the characters of Zhou Yun, Tian Dong, Zhou Shan Yanyue and others are more fully described in the chapter before Zhou Yun is admitted to college. Especially Zhou Yun and Tian Dong have more growth pavement than turning back. However, Zhou Yun enters college, returns home, and breaks up with Tian Dong. There is a transitional stage in between. Compared with Back Arrow, it is too protracted. From a personal subjective point of view, it even weakens the charm of the character. It can be stopped at the station, because in this part, Tian Dong seems hesitant, and Zhou Yun's free and easy is also missing by three points, which directly leads to the reunion between the two later being a bit soft. In comparison, Back Arrow has a strong impact. Of course, this is just my personal subjective opinion, and the author must have his own considerations. There are so many things I want to talk about, including Zhou Yun's ideological growth, the collision between Zhou Yun and Tian Dong, and Tian Dong and Yan Yue "treating Ry as pure love." Zhou Yun's words to Jiang Kai in Looking Back Arrow are too to the point. Tian Dong himself also understands that he and Yan Yue do not love each other. This relationship is partly the residual warmth of the first love that was destroyed, and the seventh part is his own resistance to his parents and Zhou Yun's tradition. In general, the back arrow is short and concise, leaving a lot of blank space for readers, with a stronger sense of atmosphere and impact, and the male and female protagonists are more "wild". Time and Elixir is more delicate, but the overall style is more suitable for JJ. In some places, it is obvious that the author is closing in and not letting go. The not letting go here does not refer to the ineffable part. Looking forward to the author's next book, see you soon!
This article is quite interesting. I don't think about the male and female characters, or the bad guy and the girl. It's just a short story about two imperfect protagonists. The male partner may continue to hang out in the flowers or he may become a good person, and the female partner may not have a less exciting life in the future.
It's not a question of whether you're a scumbag or not, it's a matter of love or not. In the early stage, the male protagonist didn't like being cheated into marriage, so he cheated. When he meets the heroine again, he falls in love with her so much that he decisively breaks up with her and actively pursues her. The female protagonist also loves the male protagonist, and even finding a boyfriend has the shadow of the male protagonist. The female supporting role is really sad and pitiful. At first she was the victim who was broken up with, but then she has been actively serving as a mistress.
How to put it, although the public likes HE, but the female protagonist is pushed by life, and her self-growth finally becomes stronger. She deserves better, and the male protagonist... Well... It doesn't matter if the prodigal son turns back, or recognizes that temporary liking and love are not the same thing, but a scumbag is a real scumbag, and he is not worth it...
Not a good character in the traditional sense, but very good-looking
What should I say? If you want a man to forget him, you must treat him like a dog. What you can't get is the best for them. The male and female protagonists cannot be commented on. Maybe this is love, but the novel is a good novel. After reading it, I have a new understanding of love.
I was disgusted and curious to watch. The beginning of the male and female protagonists was too imperfect. To a certain extent, I can understand the male protagonist's rebellion, but after all, he agreed to get married and cheated on her, and the female protagonist heard about it. This was really a bit of a stick in her throat. She had been with the female partner in the years after they were separated. Although the female protagonist also found someone else, it was even harder to accept the idea that the male protagonist would betray her to the end. She had let down two people. The female protagonist was really generous.
I really like the heroine baby... Dare to do, dare to think, dare to pay, dare to hate [Rainbow Fart]
It can only be said that we always grow and make choices while hurting others and being hurt by others. The most important thing is to always give ourselves the right to choose.
