   It's so good!!! I love watching top-tier handsome men fall in love, especially the last few chapters from the male lead's perspective—it was so satisfying! The female lead has a very strong personality; she's tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Both the male and female leads seem to have a dry sense of humor.

   This is so good!!! Both the male and female leads have tragic family backgrounds and live together, relying on each other for survival. The male lead is really tough on the outside but soft on the inside, and the female lead is very resilient. They are from blended families, a pseudo-incestuous relationship. Later, the male lead's father dies, and the female lead's mother runs away. The male lead raises the female lead from her third year of junior high school until she graduates from high school. Even though he said he would send her off after the high school entrance exam, he still secretly waits for her at the train station [crying] (actually, the male lead is only a little over a year older than the female lead [crying][crying]). He even works as a laborer on construction sites to earn money when he has a leg injury. It made me cry [crying]. He sends the female lead to university and saves up for her tuition and living expenses for four years [crying]. The relationship between the male and female leads cannot be simply described as kinship or love. They are the most special and indispensable part of each other's lives.

   I'd read a few chapters of this book before but hadn't finished it. I saw a video about unrequited love on Douyin (TikTok) and it made me so sad; I then saw this book in the comments section, so I picked it up again. This time I almost finished it. It's another bittersweet story of unrequited love, but the novel has a happy ending. Both the male and female leads are very kind and gentle people. I don't read many stories about unrequited love, so I don't have much to draw upon, but this one is definitely good.

   I absolutely love the male and female lead characters! The male lead seems arrogant and tsundere on the surface, but he's actually devoted and gentle, and the female lead is beautiful and gentle on the outside, but a little capricious (only towards the male lead). Both the male and female leads in this book are so adorable!! It's a story of reconciliation after a broken relationship, and the author's writing style is quite interesting, especially the female lead—she's so vivid and three-dimensional. It's incredibly, incredibly, and absolutely fantastic!!!

   This is a second marriage novel where the male and female leads each have children from their previous marriages and are remarrying. I don't usually like this kind of story, but this one is really well-written. The female lead is independent, strong, and has a great personality; she knows how to love and deserves to be loved. The male lead is not only her lover but also helps her overcome the grief of her ex-partner's death and provides her with a lot of emotional support. Their respective children are also wonderful! Their journey from loving each other to loving each other's children, and finally having their own daughter, is very touching. A truly good read!

    Curator note

    This is a novel that really suits my taste. I love Gui Yu's writing style, and the male and female leads are exactly my type. However, I wouldn't recommend reading it blindly. Neither the male nor female lead is perfect. The male lead has experienced many relationships and wasn't someone who cared much about relationships before the female lead (he only realized his feelings for her later, after they broke up). The female lead really likes the male lead and compromises a lot for him, but I think she's very brave (I won't elaborate here; those who like this genre can read it). I really love this novel. The female lead always thinks she and the male lead aren't meant to be, but actually, their destiny is very strong. The main story is an ending with an ending, but the epilogues are happy endings (both are realistic storylines, essentially happy endings). It's a very good book!! If you have many triggers, don't read it. If you hate it but still read it and want to criticize it, I can only say 666.

She was wary of everyone, but the male lead firmly believed in her and chose her. Gradually, the female lead also got through it and started a new life. It's a very pure love story. The male and female leads love each other very much and are very good and worthy of each other!

The female lead initially approached the male lead because she liked his roommate, and she even dated his roommate briefly in the early to mid-stages (but it was very short! And actually, she already had feelings for the male lead at that time, haha). When the male lead found out that the female lead approached him because of his roommate, he completely lost his composure and went on a crazy, literary spree, haha.

    This book is alright. I really liked the descriptions of the male and female leads' appearances (?). The plot wasn't very dramatic, rather bland. The male and female leads lost contact once during their ambiguous relationship period, and broke up once after getting together, but they got back together not long after either time. Both leads are non-virgins, and the female lead has a richer romantic history.

    I'm a fan of stories about broken relationships mended, and although this one is somewhat controversial, I personally really enjoyed it. I could feel that both the male and female leads were deeply in love with each other. The romance was quite dramatic and engaging. A heads-up: the male lead had two girlfriends after breaking up with the female lead, but the female lead's relationship isn't explicitly mentioned. Those who are sensitive to these things should proceed with caution.

It's a story about a woman from a non-celebrity family, the female lead is remarried, and she's truly heartbreaking!! Her abusive ex-husband abused her, and her father wasn't a good person either. You can read the synopsis for more details. The male and female leads were high school classmates; the male lead had a crush on the female lead back then, but after he transferred schools, that crush fizzled out. The male lead's character is quite perfect, but I'm even happier that the female lead found her own happiness after experiencing so much trauma. She's an incredibly brave person.

    I absolutely love this book! It's totally my cup of tea, especially the male and female leads. There might be some debate in the comments, but Sang Lang's writing really resonates with me!! The male and female leads have such similar personalities; two people with such similar edges aren't actually suited to be together, but they truly love each other. You can feel their physical attraction to each other. However, they're both stubborn in love, neither willing to back down, so they've had several arguments and cold wars, but they stubbornly continue to love each other. The female lead has a somewhat troubled past, which I won't spoil here. I just pray that our second brother and sister-in-law will always be happily together, and that Shen Xizhou and Zhuang Shujue will have a long and lasting relationship! 99999999999

    My absolute favorite military novel!! It's so good, so good, so incredibly good. The synopsis says it's a simple story, but I don't think so at all. I think the whole story is fantastic, and I felt so sorry for the twelve years they missed. The love between the male and female leads is also very touching. Lu Huaizheng's character is really great; he knows when to joke around but is absolutely serious when it comes to business.

    My second favorite is a younger man/older woman romance!! I really love Chen Yuzheng's character; his cheeky and arrogant personality is right up my alley. Also, I always thought that older woman/younger man romances preferred a cool and aloof female lead, but after reading this book, I realized I also really like Yu Nuo's kind of gentle and obedient older sister.

    It has a strong sense of redemption; I cried several times while reading it. The female lead starts out as a prostitute, so please don't read if you're sensitive to that. I really like this author's books; of her rainbow series, I've only missed Fu Lan, and this is my favorite. However, her books tend to be a bit "unconventional," so please avoid them if you have any aversion to them.

    My absolute favorite entertainment industry novel is one that not many people know about. It's a story of a broken relationship mended, and the male and female leads are really well-developed and compelling. I absolutely love their characters; they truly give me the feeling that they can't live without each other (haha, actually, all the male and female leads in my favorite novels give me this feeling). I love several of Sang Lang's novels, but I especially love this one, along with "Triumphant Return" and "Second Brother and Second Sister-in-Law."

    It's great!! The female lead suffers terribly in the beginning, enduring a lot of hardship caused by the grudges of the previous generation. The male lead truly loves her and genuinely tries to rewrite her destiny. It's a bit melodramatic, but still very enjoyable.
