As long as the writing is good, I'll read boy-girl romance or no-CP stories. Forced romance / healing / harem / deep, painful love / ...
Great BG Literature
In every book, you can really feel how deeply the male lead loves the female lead. Even when things get complicated, they're both sweet and angsty, with moments that make your heart skip a beat.

I prefer modern romance with wealthy families, melodrama, Hong Kong vibes, historical romance, obsessive male love interests, and 1v2 romances.

Why is there no long review for such a beautiful article?! Okay, then I'll do it! This can be said to be the most interesting novel I have read this year. The plot is very touching, with twists and turns and twists and turns. What I like most is the author's detailed description and clear psychology of the characters. The details and fighting scenes are like showing a movie. It can be said that the writing is really speechless! Along the way, I fell in love with Xi Niang before Xie Heng!!! [Spreading flowers] It is not the kind of revenge novel in the traditional sense. On the road of revenge, you will discover more truths and have more bonds, such as the male and female protagonists and the group of characters from the Supervision Department. Therefore, it is difficult to let go of the ending near the end. I think it is really unforgettable, unwilling to be satisfied, and full of heartache!! Qingqing's growth after rebirth is a bloody battle mixed with pain and tears. I really love this about her, that is, no matter what, she has never forgotten where she came from - to avenge her father and use her own strength to protect the people she loves. Is it cruel? Of course it is cruel, but a girl who has nothing has reached such a high position step by step. How can there be no sacrifice? Every time Qingqing climbs up, she is gambling with her own life. The love between the male and female protagonists is so unforgettable. Love is not everything in their lives. Both of them have been burdened with too much until today. I think the author portrayed Xie Heng's step-by-step sinking and entanglement really brilliantly. I felt anxious when I first watched it, but when I saw the end, I understood that every decision he made was so difficult, but the two little bitter bags were struggling step by step. The game of the battalion is slowly approaching, and Xie Heng has shouldered too many lives alone. His life is no longer his own, and he has already put his own death into the chess game. However, with the appearance of the heroine, the bond between the two has left so many colorful memories. Even so, they have never forgotten their mission. I think this is the highlight of this article. There is also the second male lead Li Guiyu. This kind of naive hatred for the sea is very touching. At first, I thought he was just an ordinary scumbag, but this is not the case or even the complete opposite! After reading it, you will find that each of the author's characters is not purely good or evil. Standing in the position of each character, you can understand their good and evil and cause and effect. Starting with revenge, so many characters, stories, and world views are interconnected, and the foreshadowing and reversal come one after another. This is the fine grain that a medium-length novel should have! I must brush it two or three times! Finally, please support the original version. The little theater left by the author in each chapter is really interesting and beautiful. In addition, there will be some extra chapters to collect two hundred chapters!!! Can't get enough!
Throw flowers! Can there be another extra chapter to make up 200 chapters? 😣
This book really shed too many tears. The Cui family, Supervision Department Luo Wanqing, Xie Heng, Zhang Jiuran, Cui Qingping, and Luo Qushu really paid too much. Everyone is walking their own path. Cui Qingping defended the city for three months without any reinforcements, and in the end he relied on the king who believed in him. Xie Heng was burdened with too many expectations. His family was willing to die in order to keep him alive and exchange blood for him. In order to continue to implement the "Daxia Law", they risked everything. Luo Wanqing defended her father's grievances, disfigured her face, changed her name, molded her bones, was misunderstood, and was abandoned. From a doctor to the head of the Supervision Department, she really went through it step by step. Luo Wanqing was not the only one who shed tears when she mentioned your growth. "Xie Guanlan was born because of you and lives because of you" The existence of "Cui Heng" makes Xie Heng more alive. Things that Xie Heng dare not do can be done when he becomes "Cui Heng". In fact, if there is no such hatred of family and country, Xie Heng will be a very free, good at eating and playing. Because Wanqing was initially known by the name "Cui Heng" and was silently protected by the presence of the shadow guard. The purpose of Xie Heng's existence for Wanqing was to admire and be a guiding light. Later, Xie Heng recognized his own feelings and did not force the heroine. He would only be secretly jealous and sulky. His love was support and silent protection, making her not the grass that relied on others to live, but the God of Luohe, who supported her to climb the Qingyuntai and walk on the Canglan Road. I think Luo Wanqing's growth line started when she dreamed about her last life. In prison, she regarded Jiang Shaoyan as the only way out. As a result, she was exposed to poison and daggers. She realized that asking for help from others was useless, and finally became Liu Xi. My mother disfigured her face, molded her bones, learned martial arts, entered the Supervision Department, redressed her grievances and took revenge, became a White Tiger envoy, and finally became the head of the Supervision Department. She would risk her life to save her loved ones and those who lived nowhere near, and finally embarked on her own path to the Canglan. Luo Wanqing is the most rational person in this relationship. She knows that if her relationship with Xie Heng is exposed, it will become his weakness and he will be suspected. He will also notice Xie Heng's uneasiness. Two people are equals when they are together, they protect each other and redeem each other, they are a perfect match! The clip I like very much is that Xie Heng's words "Xie Heng, Supervisor, take over the case" really closed the loop. He finally made up for the girl who ran desperately outside the prison to plead her case and reverse the case. I really pity Zhang Jiuran. She was almost reunited with her family. She was played around by fate. In the end, she thought that killing Xie Heng would end it. But it turned out that the enemy was not him. Luo Wanqing was finally rescued from five years of bloody storms, but she was forced to death in the court. I was really heartbroken. It turned out that the emperor was concerned about how she could bring a knife into the palace. This corrupt dynasty really chilled the hearts of too many people. Ji Qing wanted to be a good official, but because of Worrying about the expenses of his mother's illness and doing evil, he is really a very sober but not sober character. He is one of those people who are plotted by the family and can't help themselves. They have a conscience and go to Zhang Yiran later, but are afraid that their family will be implicated and dare not testify. The second male lead, Li Guiyu, is a pitiful person who must be hateful. He has never been loved, but he also longs to be loved. He has made a mistake since birth. His father does not care for his mother and does not love his mother. Xie Heng said that he was once a gentleman, maybe he volunteered to be a hostage and was hung up on the city wall without saying a word for three days. The only five years that I felt love were stolen from the male protagonist. He was also whitewashed in the article, and finally died in a Yangzhou prison. It was considered satisfactory, because he did not understand love because he had never been loved. His way of love was quite extreme. He wanted to trap her by his side and let her go to the quagmire and hell together, but he also pretended to be self-righteous and affectionate. The author created this character very well. I hope he will not meet Luo Wanqing in his next life, and I also hope that he will be born into a loving family in his next life. The male and female protagonists really love each other very much. The emotional line is so delicate, and the interaction is really heart-warming. Watching plum blossoms in the snow, having snowball fights, drinking together, leaning together to read discounts, they are really happy. I hope Xie Heng and Luo Wanqing will be happy forever! Who really doesn't love Liu Xiniang! Who doesn't love Luo Wanqing! I love "Canglan Road" so much! I'm so reluctant to part with you. See you again~
[Purple Sugar] kswl I came to read this book after reading Cangshan Snow. It is really, really good. There seems to be no comment on this article on social platforms and no fanart, but I can only say that it is really well written. The feeling of pull is something I have never experienced in reading so many articles until now. It is so cool. I will come back to support qwq when I publish a new article.
Watching the waves across the sea, a thought can make a boat. If life is floating, why be afraid of the rapids. I was obsessed in the past, but now I look back with a smile. After thousands of calamities, this heart remains the same.
Please write more extras, please
Give me a child, beg on your knees, and give me a few more chapters.
The writing is really great🥹The characters are all three-dimensional and full-bodied
Extra chapter one, revisited again and again. . .
I finally waited for the extra chapter. I am so happy. Qingqing Guanlan must be happy. I look forward to more extra chapters 🙏🙏🙏
