When her family went bankrupt during college, her parents could no longer let her splurge to her heart’s content. It was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go back. Shijing was so troubled she wore a permanent frown. Luckily, her rich childhood sweetheart was willing to support her. For all four years of college, she ate his food, lived in his home, and spent his money, returning to her lavish lifestyle. After g 56.4kFavorites65.8kClicks/ch22.1kGifts

   Recommended. There are so many people involved! I initially thought there would only be one person involved in the reconciliation, but this has completely shattered my worldview. All three are non-male characters and are virgins, giving off a cross-dressing vibe. February 25, 2026 The female lead was spoiled by her parents and the male lead, and she always spent money extravagantly. It seemed like she had an addiction. Then she broke up with the male lead and started her own business. The male lead was the ultimate simp. Actually, it's quite well-written, but the epilogue keeps bringing my mom into the story... She seems a lot like the puppy—a total love-struck fool... The beginning had me laughing so hard; selling used cars, dismantling electric bikes, dismantling toll trucks—the female lead is actually quite capable. Women really need to focus on their careers; men just slow down their ability to draw their swords.

2. 52 炽 Blazing Summer 炽夏 Laughing Beauty笑佳人Romance100k WordsCompleted Chuxia wheeled her suitcase out of the airport in early summer, and the damp, sweltering heat of Yucheng hit her in the face. A former classmate stood beside a luxury car and waved to her excitedly. Chuxia was just about to respond when the classmate called out over her shoulder, “Brother Lie, over here!” Chuxia froze. Footsteps approached. A tall, handsome man in a black shirt walked past her without so much as a glance. It really was Han Lie, the first love who kept slipping into her dreams an 47.7kFavorites138.1kClicks/ch21.6kGifts

   Ahhh, so short!! But I enjoyed reading it! I didn't like the mother's storyline because it was too short to fully develop her character, but the male and female leads had great chemistry. The writing is a bit immature, but the later concept of going abroad for translation was really good; I wish that part could be a standalone story. [Pity][Dog head][Pity] A sweet little story.

3. 53 迟 Late Listen 迟聆 Xi Qiao西荞Romance273k WordsCompleted When they first met, she was learning calligraphy from his uncle. He happened to walk by, and was asked to demonstrate. He was a laid-back sort, even holding the brush casually. Standing behind her, he wrote a few characters: “Tan Jizhou.” Teacher Fang laughed and scolded him, asking who’d told him to write his own name. “Sorry, I’m just used to it.” He handed the brush back to her and smiled. “Little miss, remember that.” Wen Zhiling really did remember for years.

   It's quite good, but the female lead's growth (previously described as a strong woman, but actually meant to express that she has her own independent personality) isn't explored much; it feels like 85% romance and 15% plot. There's not much plot, but I enjoyed the sweet feeling. There are some logical issues; the female lead's reasons for her first breakup were sufficient, but the reconciliation was too easy. The first important plot point was glossed over too easily. The male lead also has a rather macho feel; the beginning is all about supporting the female lead, which isn't particularly appealing. However, as a lighthearted, sweet story, it's excellent, and some of the dialogue is very delicate and touching.

Her match had a broken lower leg and arrived in a wheelchair. He had a handsome, rakish face, and at a glance, he seemed like more than she could handle. After a brief chat, she tactfully suggested they could just be friends. He got the hint and nodded with easygoing grace. . Not long after turning down her blind date, Lin Tan heard an online friend she'd known for years lament, “Bli 41.7kFavorites59.8kClicks/ch17.5kGifts

   It's very sweet! But I feel it's similar to "The Third Miss," both being adversaries who become lovers. The male and female leads are also somewhat similar, both are very good. But the male lead's character is better written; you feel that this male lead has no flaws except for being a bit talkative. The female lead's characterization isn't as good as the male lead's, perhaps because the female lead's perspective doesn't depict as many details about her.

5. 55 抱 After I Got the Wrong Boyfriend 抱错男朋友后 Mo Yan Chuan陌言川Romance70k WordsCompleted [Next up: First Love, a reunion after a long separation. Available to preorder from my author page~] Yu Xia gets a message from her boyfriend saying he’s downstairs. Wearing pajamas under a down jacket and without her glasses, she races downstairs. By the flower bed, a tall, slender figure stands waiting, wearing the windbreaker she gave him. She rushes over and throws her arms around him, exclaiming happily, “What are you doing here?” The man’s body stiffens slightly, and he frowns as he looks 40.7kFavorites112.1kClicks/ch7.4kGifts

   Actually, while writing this short review, I realized that the male lead isn't anything special. He's just handsome in the story, and he's good at picking up on the female lead's direct questions, but he's even more direct than her. On the contrary, the female lead is a lovely painter's wife. So, these short, sweet stories are so easy to read, you can just throw your brain at them and start reading!

   The writing is alright, but it feels a bit too long; the later parts aren't much different from the beginning. It's a sweet story, good for when you're bored. The cats and dogs are really cute, I love them!

A woman holding an oil-paper umbrella and wearing a blue-and-white qipao appeared in the misty rain and stopped outside a tattoo shop. "Can you do a red spider lily?"

   The plot isn't extensive; the early flirtation followed by their relationship is purely sweet. The friendship between the two characters would be better explored in the epilogue, as too much of it is in the main story. Also, Nina's character development in the early episodes becomes formulaic, mirroring the female lead's later path, with the male lead comforting her. It feels a bit cliché. It's okay for casual reading if you're bored.

   It's a really good short story! The premise is interesting, and the male and female leads aren't too pretentious. I felt like I was watching a Korean drama the whole time, haha, it's really good! You can skip the extra chapters; the ending is quite interesting. A wonderful bedtime read, thank you author!

   The writing is alright, but the overall impression is terrible, probably because it's 2026. Many people in the article are using profanity, including derogatory terms for women. The comments are even worse. Some readers are using derogatory terms to insult others in an attempt to defend this content. Another issue is that the male characters are probably too young, and they often make lewd jokes. It's important to consider the context when making lewd jokes. If two people are already very much in love, then making lewd jokes is fine, but making them in public with many people around is really quite rude. Another point is that there was something a bit awkward in the middle part of the story. The male lead kept saying he was pursuing the female lead, but he didn't actually do much. He just accompanied her on a phone call and then went to the beach to watch the sunrise. What else was good? [Question mark]

Having dodged the many security cameras, he leaned against the wall, shielding a lighter with his hand as he lowered his head to light a cigarette. The girl confessing to him was shy and nervous; he looked completely uninterested. Only later did she learn he was Zong Ye, the rookie who had become an overnight sensation as so 334kFavorites463.8kClicks/ch181.3kGifts

    It's alright. The male and female leads are very well-developed and vividly portrayed, depicting a long-awaited reunion after unrequited love blossoms into reality. The female lead is a child star, and the male lead has liked her since childhood but is insecure about it. The emotional bond between the characters could have been explored more deeply, but perhaps for the sake of a sweet story, the relationships between the male and female leads are handled quite smoothly without many obstacles. However, the story contains a lot of vulgar language, and the constant smoking and swearing detracts from the overall reading experience.

    It's a pretty good read. The beginning was a bit off-putting. Although in real life I'm the type to have a fake boyfriend, I still really disliked the competitive feel in the novel. It was much better after she left the story. As for the male lead, I just want to say, please smoke less! The female lead is very lively, cheerful, cute, and sweet-talking, and also really strong. The male lead is also very adorable; being the third wheel is truly a love story, haha. It just ended so quickly. In the main text, the female lead's phone calls and the male lead's phone calls, which couldn't get through, made it a little confusing to understand the storyline. Also, the part about the female lead wandering alone was rather brief. The ambiguous and tug-of-war scene after their reunion was quite good. My favorite scene was the one at the driving range during the rainstorm.
