   Curator note

   The "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" plot is pretty much limited, and well-written versions are becoming increasingly rare. The author's writing in this book, "Ping Xin Fen Wen," is passable, but it suffers from the common problem of gratuitous cruelty. While the female lead may not have experienced physical injury, her emotional breakdown is immense. Does the male lead's act of taking two arrows erase everything? While being willing to sacrifice his life can be considered love, this obsessive love likely makes the female lead want to escape. After all, she initially loved only the emperor's facade of magnanimity, and frankly, the emperor is truly wicked, blaming everyone else instead of reflecting on his own actions. Truly, the most ruthless emperor.

3. 53 我 The Male Lead I Picked Is Sure to Make It 我选的男主一定行 Fusang Knows Me扶桑知我Romance273k WordsCompleted [The heroine and the original heroine are the same person] Shen Manyun read a novel full of romantic rivalries. The first male lead was a yandere psycho, wildly popular by a mile. The second male lead was an elegant, devoted gentleman, with countless fangirls clamoring for him to take the lead. The third male lead was a warm ray of sunshine, and he had plenty of fans, too. Only the fourth male lead, the one Shen Manyun quietly liked, had an unfashionable loyal-dog persona. He wasn't a psycho and 32.6kFavorites25.7kClicks/ch18.4kGifts

   The first half was great; the two people drew closer simply because they harbored feelings for each other, and even after separating, their hearts remained aligned. However, the second half leaned more towards the female lead going to save someone, but she lost herself in the process, watching helplessly as what she had once protected with all her might slowly slipped away. I don't know if this was a deliberate technique, but it might not be the happy ending that most people would expect. Nevertheless, I would still give every character who fought so hard to protect their loved ones a four-star rating (four stars is quite good for me; you should check it out).

I love watching these little cats and dogs playfully bickering.

He was covered in blood, yet still smiled gently as he always did, softly asking her which creature or plant in the world she feared most: birds, beasts, insects, fish, grass, or trees. Qian Zhong held him, afraid that squeezing too hard would hurt him, yet afraid that if she held him too lightly he would disappea 19kFavorites6.5kClicks/ch20.8kGifts

    The author has a very high level of cultural knowledge; you have to read it slowly to understand it. The two characters are very well-developed, especially Lord Zhuang. He's sickly and pretends to be weak to outsmart others; he's clearly a strategist, but he repeatedly breaks his own rules after meeting the female lead. Although our female lead is eloquent, clever, and intelligent, she should be liked, and there are no misunderstandings or entanglements, the two of them remain steadfast from beginning to end.

    Curator note

    Having witnessed countless bloodshed and overwhelming hatred, where everyone fights to the death, it's rare to see a couple like the male and female protagonists who compromise with each other. It's hard to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to reconcile. The female protagonist's choice is beyond reproach, but if her father really dies, they will truly never be able to go back. The later chapters feel more like a dream; perhaps the story ended when that fire was lit.

    It was alright on the first read, but I probably wouldn't read it a second time. Having gotten used to longer stories, the shorter ones felt a bit less polished, with many details omitted [biting handkerchief].

The author still has a lot of room for improvement—it must have been very hard work!
