Li Siwei's writing style is light and refreshing, with a thrilling and captivating career storyline. The top has relatively few scenes and is often relegated to the background. It's a satisfying story for the bottom.

In the face of the apocalypse, they protect and redeem each other. The author, Cang Hai You Lan, writes with a tight pace, rich details about post-apocalyptic infrastructure and survival, high-tension battle scenes, and vividly portrayed ensemble characters. The romance develops somewhat slowly, and the pacing becomes slightly dragging in the later parts of the story.

   7.8/10! My absolute favorite: a possessive, domineering, fatherly gong! The story revolves around Qin Weidong, a possessive and domineering top, and Fang Li, a charming and sophisticated singer bottom. They've relied on each other since childhood. After Fang Li's father absconds with his money, Qin Weidong risks everything to help him escape poverty. Coinciding with the opening of the mining industry in the 1990s, Qin Weidong uses his ruthless wit to become a mining tycoon, while Fang Li is discovered by a talent scout and pursues his musical dreams. Qin Weidong also unexpectedly discovers his wealthy family background. Together, they overcome family and societal obstacles, remaining deeply in love. The author, Bone Scimitar, uses a simple and down-to-earth writing style with a rich sense of the era. The sweet and touching interactions between the top and bottom are incredibly moving, and the narrative flows smoothly and naturally. Some readers have mentioned domestic violence by the top, but I don't think so; it's reasonable within the story, given the premise. Those who find this disturbing should proceed with caution!

The author, Qingyun Xiaoshi, writes in a realistic and professional style, with solid details in criminal investigation and psychology, a strong suspenseful atmosphere, and a fast-paced, episodic format. However, the male lead's character is somewhat of a plot device with limited screen time, and the romantic relationship develops slowly and is portrayed rather subtly.

    9/10. A story of ruthless and cold-blooded gong (top) Xiao Chiye vs. Reserved and cunning shou (bottom). In a chaotic world, Shen Zechuan, burdened by his family's injustice, lies low to survive, while Xiao Chiye, trapped in a predicament, harbors ambitions for the world. The two meet amidst the power struggles of the capital, supporting each other, becoming each other's weakness and armor, working together to break through the encirclement and quell the wars. Amidst the clash of swords, they stand together to secure the realm, weaving a tapestry of political intrigue and profound love. Many well-written political intrigue novels have weak or even nonexistent romance. I think this one balances both the plot and romance well. Tang Jiuqing's writing is magnificent and powerful, with a rich classical style, a grand political intrigue framework, and vivid character portrayals. The only drawback is the tragic ending of the secondary couple! I was originally going to give it 9.5, But I deducted 0.5 Points because of the secondary couple's ending!
