Fang Wenyi used her professional expertise to analyze why Xu Yuan had been dumped, and concluded: "He's terminally ill and about to die, so he doesn't want you to be too sad." This conclusion didn't match reality, because Cheng Chuge was perfectly fine. In fact, Xu Yuan was the one who died first. Af 11.3kFavorites13.3kClicks/ch9.2kGifts

   What a touching book! The male and female leads were high school classmates who had planned to go to University A together. The male lead was attacked and broke up with her. The female lead was involved in a murder on her university registration day and died innocently. She died for five years and turned into the glasses the male lead wanted. He bought them and made me want to cry so much because the male and female leads were so good to each other and loved each other so much. The male lead returned to China to investigate the female lead's case and became a police consultant. The male lead and the 18-year-old psychologist are super cute and pure. The female lead was so hard to leave the book. The spirits were also very cute. I don't usually read fantasy or crime novels, but this one is really good.

   I love this trope [milk tea] A house-born maid x a young general (the raiding version) The double redemption and destiny feel is super strong!

   The childhood sweetheart setting in a Shanghai alleyway is quite nice, and the young boy and girl are so adorable! It's a story that started when they were young, but it's never boring and I kept reading! I felt the charm of the clingy, slightly gloomy male lead (not really, he's actually quite sunny). I finished reading it in one go; the main story is already complete. It's rare to find a happy ending in this one. I previously read her "To Your Sun," which also featured a childhood sweetheart/unhappy ending with a younger sister/gentle older brother; it was quite heartwarming, and both characters died.

   The ancient Chinese romance novel, featuring a young couple who fall in love after an arranged marriage, is quite good. The female lead is from a prestigious family, intelligent and clever, while the male lead is a young general who rises to power. The writing is truly excellent. The female lead's revenge plot and the male lead's career development storyline were both compelling enough to keep me reading. However, the female lead's emotions are rather subtle, making the relationship feel like a slow and steady progression. The ending letter was never revealed, leaving me wondering what it contained. It would have been better if the romance had been more developed.

   A childhood sweetheart story spanning ten miles! So heartwarming! A withdrawn but cheerful girl x a gentle leukemia patient male lead—the two are truly sweet and adorable. Is it a story with both family and romance running parallel? (This is from a hematology master's student, already graduated.) It's quite relatable, but alas, it's a sad ending.

    In this ancient Chinese romance novel, the young man and woman are mistaken for each other's childhood fiancés because the male lead has to take on a different identity due to some hidden reasons. However, it's not a formal marriage contract, but rather a guarantee; they are actually relatives. The story is a sweet and engaging romance between the main characters.

    Curator note

    The female lead, a healer, saves the male lead and discovers he's her best friend's brother, so she calls him "cousin." It's a classic case of the woman pursuing the man, but he's unaware of his own feelings. The core is a mutual attraction. The romance is well-written; misunderstandings are quickly resolved, and there's a "chasing after the wife" element, but it's not a tragic, heartbreaking story.

    A cool and gentle older sister x a warm and clingy younger brother – they're childhood sweethearts. The male and female leads were kidnapped and escaped together as children. The female lead only remembers the male lead later, but that doesn't stop her from being lovestruck (not really, the male lead is quite charming too).

    The female lead is reborn back to when she was eight years old, and I really enjoyed the childhood parts! It's a super pure childhood sweetheart story with two love-struck souls (not really), but there are also quite a few career-oriented parts. These two little devils [let me see] are so adorable!

    Wow! A rare gem among fantasy novels that I finished reading! Perhaps because it focuses mainly on the mortal realm, it wasn't too bad—not too much cultivation, monster-hunting, past lives, or the little golden bird x big rock relationship was very heartwarming! I finished it in an afternoon.

    I stayed up until 4 AM reading this qaq. I'd saved it a long time ago, but I didn't open it because I don't usually read farming novels. I only started reading it after seeing some leaked photos that seemed okay. It's really good! It's a 1v1 story with mutual love throughout, and the farming parts aren't boring at all. It's really great!
