   Dual perspectives, obsessive bottom x tsundere top It's really well-written and full of inspiration, but the characters might not be to my liking. Still, I recommend it; it has a very strong ancient Chinese martial arts feel and is a very interesting short story.

   Dual perspectives: Beautiful, man-eating flower seme x Invincible, truly devoted uke HE (Happy Ending), no grumbling xql (a Chinese internet slang term for a person who is honest and straightforward), not a scumbag seme (top) and a submissive uke (bottom) ahhhhh! Although at first it seemed like a completely angsty romance, wow, it's so well written, I can't believe I only just found this story… Halfway through, I felt a bit of angst for the uke, but as I read on, I realized that the two brothers in their past and present lives were in love, and they both sacrificed a lot for each other, and they were quite good at being fair to each other. In both past and present lives, you're the only one in my eyes [crying emoji]. P. S. You absolutely have to read the whole thing, it's so good! [Heart emojis]

   Dual perspectives, transmigration protagonist x local protagonist The synopsis is a bit weak and doesn't quite capture the brilliance of the main story. Please give it a chance! The protagonist (shou) is not stupid at all; he's very smart! The romance is adorable, and the psychological shifts are portrayed very naturally. The male lead (gong) has a very compelling character—mysterious and cunning. It's usually quite difficult to write a story about a character like this experiencing a sudden attraction, but in this book, the male lead's attraction to the protagonist is very reasonable. A very good story I've read recently! Five-star recommendation!

5. 5 我 My Dao Companion Has Something Wrong with His Brain 我道侣脑子有病 The Moon Sees Me明月见我Danmei (BL)345k WordsCompleted Shen Xuan and Lu Junheng were a notorious bickering couple in the cultivation world. By a twist of fate, the two were bound together by a marriage contract. Shen Xuan hated Lu Junheng for stealing his romantic prospects and keeping him from marrying the senior brother he’d grown up with. Lu Junheng hated Shen Xuan for ruining his path of ruthless detachment and forcing him to change paths and start cultivating again. They knew exactly where to hit each other, and gleefully attacked one another 16.1kFavorites13.2kClicks/ch17.7kGifts

   Dual perspective They seem like an ill-fated couple, but they're not really. The protagonist (uke) has some childhood PTSD, so he's somewhat avoidant and afraid of love. The other protagonist (seme) is fully aware of this and plays along, but in reality, they're both deeply in love. It's adorable. I'm deducting one star because I personally found the writing and plot to be just average, but the romance is still very cute, especially the ending, which moved me deeply. [Pity]

   Curator note

   Main attack/first person perspective A solid, sweet romance novel about rivals. The world-building is quite novel! The characters aren't truly sworn enemies; they're more like two awkward kids who don't get along. They're clearly deeply in love, but each only thinks they want to surpass the other, when in reality they don't. Overall, it's not a tale of intense hatred and romance, but it's very sweet.

   Dual perspectives - a strong sense of male ghost as a nemesis The romance is great, and the plot is very interesting. The writing is fine. One of only two novels I can truly enjoy featuring a rivalry where one character has a crush on the other. The protagonist is very free-spirited and strong, which I like. It has a happy ending, very convoluted but ultimately a happy one, which is wonderful.

   Dual perspectives. A micro-controlling, maniac top x a rough, puppy-like bottom. Both characters are strong, the plot and emotions are evenly matched and complement each other, and the writing style and pacing are superb! Highly recommended. My daily impressions while reading this story are: Baby, you're so cute!! The male lead starts out as a beautiful, weak, and pitiful character, but after chapter 20 he becomes a beautiful, strong, and no longer pitiful one, haha. Every character is well-developed, yet not overly elaborated. The pacing is excellent. The main couple is also incredibly adorable. It's such a perfect story; not a single chapter was boring. Note: This is an ongoing series, but it's almost finished! However, because it's a very long story, it's already quite readable, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    First-person perspective, main character is the receiver. 3.5 Stars. The writing could be smoother in the beginning, but it gets better as it progresses. The protagonist is a soft-hearted but awkward character; you can tell he likes the young emperor but is also afraid of being disrespected and treated like a plaything. However, the first-person narration doesn't quite create a great reading experience; it feels more like he's just making sarcastic remarks. His awkwardness is noticeable, but he's genuinely cute when he shows affection. Overall, it's very adorable, especially sweet later on. The male lead's character is quite good, and his values ​​are surprisingly positive. Perfect for a sweet bedtime story!

    The dominant character redeems the submissive character while also healing himself. The writing is excellent, heartwarming, and the plot is engaging. The storyline is very complete; even I, a fan of romance, was captivated. The romance is split evenly between the two main themes. They knew they would be together forever from their first meeting in their youth, and after many years, they finally found themselves back on the same path. Even when they weren't on the same road, they remained companions and understanding each other throughout their lives. A truly worthwhile read.

Everyone knew the prince had never married and preferred men. The cause of his death was bound to invite speculation.

The plot and romance are evenly matched, and the romance is brilliantly crafted [pity], very cleverly. The writing is truly superb. The main characters are incredibly well-developed; I've fallen in love with both the uke and the seme—they're both so charming. The only slight complaint is that the romantic subplot at the end felt a bit off, so I'll deduct 0.5 Points. Aside from that, the writing is absolutely brilliant. Highly recommended!

    What the hell is this story? It started off so sweet and enjoyable, but the later development of the relationship was like a runaway horse, making me frown... The seme inexplicably disemboweled the uke, and the uke did absolutely nothing wrong throughout the entire story! And the uke had a persistent ex-girlfriend from the modern world, which wasn't so bad; I was waiting for the author to resolve that. But then, the seme tricked the uke into going to find something to save him, which took eight years (in reality, the seme didn't need to be saved at all; it was just a way to get rid of the uke). When they met again, there was no gratitude, no sweet moments, and the seme just went straight to the dark room and disemboweled the uke?! Just because he was afraid the uke would leave him?! Hmm?! Is this something a human would do? I'm furious! I'm so angry I subscribed to the whole thing just to vent. Avoid this story!

    The protagonist is the receiver (bottom). A subject (bottom) secretly loves the emperor (top). The author's writing is excellent! The political intrigue plot is quite interesting, leaning towards realism, and both the main characters, the seme and uke, are very charismatic. The uke basically falls in love with the seme at first sight, followed by a bittersweet unrequited love, while the seme is initially somewhat unaware of his own feelings. It's a story of two strong characters, a mutual and unwavering love. The confession scene was a little lacking, but overall it's sweet and reassuring. Warning: The male lead is an emperor who was originally straight and has a harem, but most of his relationships are political marriages. This book did prompt me to reflect on the topic of "oppression of women"...

    First-person dual perspective, main story from the perspective of the protagonist (uke), side stories from the perspective of the male lead (seme). The pacing and writing style are great, making for a pleasant reading experience! The protagonist is very capable and possesses considerable political charisma. Regarding the romance, I preferred the protagonist's perspective because he truly loves the other person, which might have created more tension. The ending is very idealistic; it's a happy ending, but it feels unrealistic, perhaps because they both carried too much burden [crying emoji]. Warning: Both characters are virgins, but there is a lesbian wife complex - although the seme's wife cheated on him, the cause-and-effect relationship is still a lesbian wife complex.

    Main character is the dominant one. A transmigrated emperor (top) x a loyal, slowly growing shadow guard (bottom). The writing is excellent, with a good balance of romance and plot, and the political intrigue is engaging without being mind-numbing! It's not a traditional emperor-shadow guard couple; it features rare equality in the relationship, rather than the shadow guard's one-sided anxiety and insecurity. In this setting, shadow guards can wield real power. One reason I really like this book is that the shadow guard has his own career, storyline, and friendships; he's not completely revolving around the protagonist (gong). He shows his own personality in front of him and isn't entirely subservient. The protagonist is a transmigrator who rises to become an emperor through his own hard work, but he also experiences anxiety and insecurity in front of the other, testing whether the other truly loves him. They are two very charming people, and their love is mutual! Warning: Sigh, I really didn't want to warn about this book, because I was afraid some people might miss out on such a good story at first glance. The following are some potential triggers that I think might bother some readers, but I found them completely reasonable and without any issues. The male lead is an emperor who has had children, but the concubine was the original owner's concubine before the story began; they were no longer alive.

The beginning is somewhat similar to The Portrait of the Deceased, but the characters and plot are actually quite different.

    Note: This story is not about two people being in a relationship, but it's not the kind of story where they're promiscuous or genuinely in love. Both the protagonist and the antagonist have been married before, but there were no romantic feelings involved; neither is a wife of a gay man. The antagonist's wife had other men she loved, and he was aware of this. His wife passed away early due to illness. The antagonist's wives were purely for mutual benefit. The antagonist deeply respects women, while the antagonist hates everyone equally. Okay, all the spoilers are cleared out, folks! This is the most enjoyable story I've read recently!! The first half was so satisfying in terms of writing, plot, and character development!!! The romance and plot were evenly matched, and every storyline was captivating. The only downside was that the later plot got a bit too long and dragged on, but the emotional shifts in the characters were still delightful. Regarding the characters: I initially thought the uke would be a rigid, bookish type and worried it might be a bit boring, but in reality, besides being intelligent, he's also incredibly strong!! The seme is genuinely crazy but very charismatic! He looks down on everything, is serious but actually quite arrogant, polite but willful, and learns to restrain himself for love, oh my god, I'm so soft-hearted.

The premise is that Wen You falls in love with an NPC, and the happy ending is already great, so even if the logic is a little far-fetched, I don't mind! It's a short to medium-length story, perfect for enjoying sweet moments, and the romance feels very natural!

    Master and Receive The premise is pretty cool, and the concept is very imaginative. Is it a semi-traditional BL (Boys' Love) story? Not in the traditional sense… The interactions between the main characters are quite cute, but many of the plot twists are a bit abrupt. A story where the imaginative premise outweighs the sweet romance.

    First-person perspective. A somewhat heartbreaking story… I consider it a tragic ending. It's well-written, but still sad. Everyone says they love the Imperial Uncle, but no one has ever truly chosen him. Sigh, I personally don't like this story.

    Master and Receive This story, "Hate and Love Across the Sea," is incredibly satisfying! The male lead is a bit too crazy in the beginning, but after the reasons are explained, I think his madness is actually quite restrained… Besides the romance, the father-son relationship is also truly touching. The plot and emotions are both excellent. "Hate and Love Across the Sea" is exceptionally good, a masterpiece, highly recommended!

    The main focus is on non-tradable countries and non-tradable countries, and on turning straight into curved countries. Both the seme and uke are incredibly charismatic. The seme's adaptability and learning ability exceeded expectations. The story has its highlights in both the early and later stages! I was initially drawn in by the seme's charm, and the emotional turmoil between the protagonists later on was particularly well-developed. The seme is truly devoted; I can't even imagine how much more enjoyable it would have been if this story had a uke-centric perspective, because emotions in a protagonist's viewpoint are usually weakened due to the perspective, but even with that weakening, I still felt their genuine, profound affection!! The author's writing skills are truly impressive, though the ending left me wanting more. A great story, just a little unsatisfied!

In the twenty years he lived, he was arrogant and unrestrained. His iron cavalry had trampled every corner of the Central Plains, and at last it set its sights on the crumbling city of Xian'an. He had thought that he alone, beneath all of heaven, could sit upon the dragon throne in Xian'an. He never imagined that Wu Hai, a frail young lord from the obscure Gusu Wang family, would shoot him throu 17.6kFavorites23kClicks/ch7.7kGifts

    Master and Receive A story of intertwined love and hate, with a complete and original plot! The romance and the main plot each occupy half of the story, creating a good balance! The development of the romance is also very natural. Personally, I find it hard to accept that the protagonist killed the other character in a past life. Even with the subsequent attempts to make amends, I still feel uncomfortable; it doesn't seem entirely justifiable. Aside from that: the tension is very strong, overall recommended.

    Master and Receive The writing is excellent, clean and concise! The main characters are adorable. At first, I didn't quite understand how the male lead fell in love—was it love at first sight? But aside from the beginning, the subsequent romance develops very naturally and delicately, which is a plus! Personally, I didn't really like the supporting characters, which was a little upsetting, but I think some people might really enjoy them; it depends on personal taste. The plot isn't overly complex, and the pacing is great. Recommended.

    Master and Receive This is indeed an exceptionally good wuxia novel. The plot pacing is excellent, never feeling disjointed or boring. The emotional pacing is also very good. My reason for giving it four stars is due to my personal preference: I felt sorry for Gu Yi in the middle, as Xu Yunqian misunderstood him too many times, yet Gu Yi consistently chose Xu Yunqian. Therefore, I felt the emotional portrayal of Xu Yunqian after learning the truth wasn't satisfying enough, perhaps lacking a mutual commitment? (Although it truly was a very mutual commitment.) Overall, a huge thumbs up! I'll definitely read it again!
