They're the entertainment industry's famously contractual couple, the sort who can't even be bothered to pretend to be in love. I'm baffled that they have so many ship fans. I swear I'm not hating on them. Top answer: " 513.3kFavorites1.1MClicks/ch520.5kGifts

I didn't finish this book in one sitting; I ordered it in installments. It's made up of many small units strung together, so you can skip around while reading. It's a good read for leisure time; it doesn't require much logic or brainpower. Some parts are quite fun.

Mingyue Tingfeng's suspense stories are all well-written. Both the male and female protagonists are a bit silly, but bursting with a sense of justice. The fifth star goes to the author herself; I hope to see a new book soon.

A very exciting and joyful book. Magic defeats magic. A female protagonist with off-the-charts fighting skills and an extremely cute male protagonist—I'm at a loss for words for the first time. In short, I've read it three times. Check it out when you need some lighthearted encouragement.

This is a very cute story. It has little to do with the book title. It follows the author's consistent rabbit-themed humor. The author's writing style is relatively straightforward, and the characters are simple in personality, without any profound, fantastical, or difficult-to-understand characters. The villains are also villains in a natural way, not complicated but not flat either. It's a good way to pass the time as a simple ensemble piece. It's creative, and while the world-building isn't extensive, it's complete.

It's a very gentle book. There aren't any dramatic highs and lows involving life and death, but it's warm and comforting. The conflicts in the story seem a bit illogical, but that's okay; they don't play a major role. It's a smooth story.
