    Curator note

    An atypical story of a female Alpha and a male Omega, where they are each other's wives, and their relationship is a sweet and gentle romance. The main plot revolves around the male lead causing trouble, and he's the focus of most of the story; the female lead is rather reserved and somewhat overtly affectionate. The male lead has a lot of cat-like traits, which I personally disliked; he has a subtle, almost childlike quality.

    A pretty sweet romance novel. The male and female leads are bickering lovers in the beginning, but there's a bit of a "censored" trope later on. The female lead is a stunning beauty, and the male lead is initially attracted to her (?), So there's a lot of description of her appearance and figure. If you like this kind of story and don't mind, you can check it out.

    The show felt so overly melodramatic and tiring to watch. The plot mainly consisted of one project after another. I didn't want to continue watching after the censorship was removed. The protagonist (uke) is a very good and cute character, but the other character (seme) is less appealing in comparison. I don't think the pairing is very easy to ship.

    I really love Meng Tingjing, the arrogant and irritable male ghost. His inner monologues are hilarious, and it's also a nurturing story; the character's growth and change of mindset are very complete and nuanced. The relationship between Jing and Yu is so compelling, it's impossible to ship any of the other cannon fodder male leads. Especially Nie Da, he's such a flat, stereotypical character, I don't know what he's doing summoning spirits.

    The story revolves around a cynical and competitive male lead who is obsessed with beauty and a straightforward female lead who is attracted to muscular men. The male lead's seemingly delusional and mean-spirited nature is what makes the story so enjoyable. The highlight of the story is that the female lead genuinely dislikes the male lead in the early stages and never tolerates his constant verbal abuse and humiliation.
