Chronicles of the Locust Tree Let the Tiger Sniff the FlowerRomance273k WordsCompleted 8.2kFavorites7.9kClicks/ch2.8kNutrition
Curator note
(Too long, excerpts from the last two paragraphs) The third brother had a rough life and rarely found satisfaction. When he was thirteen years old, he accepted Nan Bei and raised her up, but eventually the brother and sister broke up; when he was twenty-four years old, he was willing to raise someone else's son. The child's congenital defects almost blinded his eyes and broke his spirit, but in the end he still couldn't stay. At the age of thirty, perhaps being in the north and south was his greatest consummation. After being apart for many years, they finally became husband and wife, but like his second brother, he would never have children of his own in his life. He once longed to enter a university classroom and struggled for the opportunity to study amidst the turmoil. When the society gradually stabilized and the college entrance examination resumed, he missed the precious opportunity due to his blurred vision and lingering on the bed. When I was pursuing the article, I hated my third brother for his fraternity, his cowardice, and his stubbornness - he didn't know how to live in poverty and be alone, such stupidity harmed others and himself! In the end, he was tortured by illness and was as thin as firewood, leaving only a deep sigh. He became sick due to overwork and suffered a lot, including the swords from the north and the south. The child who died young took away too much of his health. He is such a good old man, and his short life has been both sweet and bitter.

Sissi A West Flying GooseRomance50k WordsCompleted 22.8kFavorites60.1kClicks/ch4.7kNutrition
Curator note
One of the coolest little quotes of the year, bar none (let's just say it in the face). It turned out to be an open ending in the end. Sissi didn't love anyone. No matter how jealous the two men were, it wouldn't matter no matter how many chips she had. Her heart wouldn't stop for anyone, and whoever she chose was just a whim. There are many authors who write about scumbags, heroes, and Shura fields, but not all authors can quickly and accurately grasp the exciting points and feed them to readers directly and neatly. The cynical young man took pleasure in teasing her at first, and got confused and fell in love, and finally suffered the consequences; the cold-hearted man was like a poor husband who longed for Sissi's pity. He understood that love was not enough to move her, so he lay dormant and waited for the day when his wings would be full, and then the two of them who were stuck in the mud would not have to drag each other down. Selfishly, I prefer Sun Kang, but I don't hate Feng Zhuocheng. You sing and I come on stage. No matter who plays opposite Sissy, they all deserve a reward. Fifty thousand words are neat and concise, unlike some articles that can explain things clearly in ten words but only two or three chapters. (Blatantly spicy food)

(Already pitted) Campus and urban periods each have their own flavors. When she was in college, Liu Qingzi was like a spinning top, "carrying a big schoolbag on her back and shuttling around the campus all day long." There is too much edge in how you behave and act, speak quickly and speak your mind freely first. Such an angular person fell in love with a naturally smooth senior, gentle and considerate, but a central air conditioner. Air Conditioner has a crush on the heroine, but when there is an elementary school girl who is more lively and clingy than the heroine, he naturally has a tendency in his heart. If the senior is a central air conditioner with heating mode all year round, the male protagonist is just like a refrigeration machine. Most of the time, he stayed away from their entanglements like a spectator, but neither stayed away nor could stay away. He usually never meddle in other people's business, but would give a warning when the air conditioner swayed and his attitude was ambiguous. It's a pity that the previous ambiguity between the heroine and the air conditioner was obvious to everyone. After the air conditioner got together with the elementary school girl, the heroine became a joke. Elementary school girls are not economical. They worry about gains and losses. Whenever the heroine gets closer to an air conditioner, she feels like she is facing a formidable enemy. She even took it upon herself to bring the male and female protagonists together, and the female protagonist humiliated her in public, so she became the weakling and cried, ruining the reputation of the female protagonist. Later, the class monitor tampered with the scholarship evaluation, which frustrated the heroine's hopes. The two quarreled in public, which had a bad impact. In the end, it was difficult to end, and the heroine's professor father stepped in to calm it down. The heroine in college vividly explains what it means to be strong and easy to break. In real life, I may also be stabbed by the edges and corners of this kind of person, but she in the novel is more like a projection of my inner feelings, so I get angry when she suffers and is frustrated (this is the case for my mother's fans). The same may be true for the male protagonist. He is essentially the same type of person as the female protagonist and cannot be bullied. But he disdains to get involved with rotten fish and shrimps, and even directly cuts off all kinds of campaign evaluations to save trouble. He understood the heroine's reluctance and grievance, and did not deprive her of the opportunity to grow. Instead, he took her for a drink when she was depressed, and stood behind her to watch her regain her luster. People who are naturally smooth don't like her edges and corners, but people with the same sharp edges are more compatible with her. When he gave her a gift, he would say, "What other people's friends have, my friends should also have." When they went their separate ways, he would say, "Contact me if you have anything to do, and I'll be there if you come to me." Those secret, obscure, and tacit things were all gently revealed, and he stood behind her as a friend for many years. Until he realized that she was just a snail, and she would only shrink when she touched the limit. As long as he lets it go, she will always pretend to be deaf and blind. He pretends to be honest, but she really treats him as an honest person. After being uncharacteristically neglected for half a year, he pressed forward every step of the way when we met again. Time was never on his side, so it didn't matter what time it was. He opened up and made it clear. Although most of the first part talks about the campus period, in fact, most of the text is in the city. The plot is not as full as the campus part, and the push and pull between the male and female protagonists account for the majority. The author is really good at expressing emotions! There is no complicated plot, and the emotional line is authentic. I can watch it for a hundred years! ! !

Curator note
Very relaxing, very healing, completely burden-free, 0 calories but full of sugar. Wang Shushu Wang Datou is the most lively and lovely heroine in 2023! The article says that Wang Shu has an average appearance and is slightly fat (more than 100 pounds is called fat?), Has a bad personality, and the male protagonist is a tall, rich and handsome man. But I don't think this story has too much of a fantasy about a prince falling in love with a common girl—— She is a talkative king who can't bear any loss, can't bear any injustice, can't resist any beauty... She has been using a slightly clumsy way to convey her warmth to her best friend who has a rough life, her parents who are middle-aged and bankrupt, and her sister who has met with misfortune. I don't want to use the obsolete word "little sun" to refer to her, but she is indeed brilliant wherever she goes, and it is not surprising that anyone is attracted to her. The whole story is very simple. Gao Fushuai fell in love with Bai Tian at first sight, and for the first time in his life, he chased someone in a tortuous and tortuous way. It made me want to give him a kick to speed up the progress. But on the day he confessed his love, he asked the heroine to come to the studio for a portrait, which still made me sigh that love also requires talent. There are no violent ups and downs in the whole text, and the sweetness is gentle and just right. The daily affairs between young lovers seem ordinary when they pick up one item, but when reading it, it makes people feel unsatisfactory and have intermittent love brain attacks. Without further ado, let's go take a look at my cute female goose king's head!

Curator note
The male protagonist is a young owner of a chain restaurant who returned from studying abroad. He is ruthless and ruthless in business. He can kill eight strong men with one mouth. The female protagonist is an assistant at the main store. She is gentle and sweet, with a soft temper. At first, like other employees, she was respectful and afraid of the male protagonist. As a newcomer in the restaurant, she is often given advice by the male protagonist. Fortunately, she is diligent and studious, and is becoming more and more proficient in her business. However, the spring breeze blew over Yan Luo's cold face. Looking at such a gentle face and loving eyes every day, the young master's heart secretly moved. Until he drunkenly kissed the heroine and was slapped by her, breaking his calm surface. Although he sincerely apologized afterwards and both of them were willing to let the accident go, he felt sad when he saw her trying to get along with her colleagues. Knowing that she was being harassed by her neighbors, he secretly found someone to vent her anger on her behalf. When she returned home in an emergency, he took the trouble to drive her home. After he was sure of his feelings, he went straight to the target. Even though she said it was "inappropriate", he was unwilling to give up and chased and caught her because he saw that she did not reject him. When she finally relented, a moment of courage prompted them to do it to the end. As a result, she asked him for the physical examination report early the next morning. She had heard and seen his romantic affairs, and she was sexually attracted to him, but she was not crazy. Only then did the male protagonist realize that in her eyes, they were just bed partners. Never had the young host been questioned like this, but despite being annoyed, he still obediently did a physical examination, took her out to eat and hang out, and went on dates like an ordinary couple, determined to get their relationship back on track. She saw how much he cared about this relationship, but the awkwardness of their identities would affect their work. She persuaded him to keep it secret for the time being. Their relationship is natural and pleasant, he is direct and she is not shy, and the occasional friction does not cause waves. The relationship between superior and subordinate added a layer of secret pleasure to their contact, but the heroine's excessive caution still made him impatient. He thought she didn't want to last long, and she thought he was too tough and too aggressive. Fortunately, both of them are talkative, but they just have differences in the rhythm of love, so everything will be fine if they just talk it out. The writing style is plain and natural, which I have always liked. The author writes about the world of people in the restaurant very well and with a sense of the world. The restaurant business is based on ability and human relations, and it also involves many Cantonese delicacies, all of which have a certain amount of space. Therefore, the personality charm of the male protagonist is not a castle in the air. He has skills and abilities, can handle things freely, and is thoughtful but not keen on playing tricks. The heroine is not a brainless little white flower, because the happy family and the care of her parents make her feel pure kindness, but she is also sober and principled. Although she is weaker than the male protagonist, she does not feel oppressive. She is the spring breeze blowing on her face, and he is strict and restrained, which is exactly the complement to each other. The shortcomings are also obvious. For example, the breakup crisis near the end seems to be deliberately creating conflict. Rather than breaking up impulsively because the male protagonist is too eager, it is more because he is too complicated. After all, there is a lot of foreshadowing in the previous chapter, which makes it feel too complete and too hasty.

An Inch of Lovesickness Ziwei Fleeting TimeRomance339k WordsCompleted 63.5kFavorites198kClicks/ch8.9kNutrition
Curator note
The heroine was born as a Hu Ji and was despised. The master took pity on her and accepted her as his disciple, teaching her the art of swordsmanship. But she was destined to be an alien from birth, and was ridiculed by her master. Her master was also poisoned by her best friend, and she turned from a sword master into a crazy abandoned son. The only way to detoxify her is to collect eight precious medicinal materials and pay a lot of money to hire experts to take care of her master, which is extremely difficult for a lonely and helpless woman. The heroine is so stupid that she only wants to save her master, regardless of her own safety. From then on, she was constrained by others and learned the skill of stealing things in disguise. She became a gangster and stole rare treasures in exchange for a large amount of gold, silver and medicinal materials. The male protagonist is the eldest son of the noble Marquis of Jingan, and his mother is a beauty he met while fighting in the desert. Unfortunately, he died in childbirth after entering the capital. The male protagonist was also poisoned by his legitimate mother. Fortunately, his mother's brother, a psychiatrist, rescued him, took him away from the capital, and taught him unique skills. The male protagonist is particularly good at using poison and is a hidden martial arts demon. Many years later, he reappeared in the Hou Mansion, charming and happy, but he actually came for revenge. His sister has been framed, and in order to clear his grievances, he must go deep into a foreign land to regain a picture. However, he only knows how to poison and has no martial arts skills, so he has to summon five masters in the world and pay them a lot of money to escort him to and from foreign lands, and the heroine is one of them. The other experts were all righteous people and looked down upon her as a young girl. However, the journey was difficult and dangerous, and it was the heroine who made quick wits and took risks several times to save everyone from danger. She has been disguising herself as a man and hiding her true identity, but she was still discovered by the cunning male protagonist. As the trip to a foreign land progresses, the male protagonist is gradually attracted by her strength and tenacity. The heroine's stupidity lies in her naivety. She can't see through the plot of someone with serious intentions, let alone the love in his eyes. After the mission was successfully completed, she disappeared immediately, but he once again lured her back through a broker and used her for his own use. She has principles that are not close to the powerful, but she is simple and straightforward by nature, while he is good at calculation and almost plays with her at the palm of his hand. Soon he tricked her into showing her true face and asked her not to be disfigured in front of him. In fact, both of them were attracted to each other at this time, and it was more about the tug of desire. One no longer trusts true love, and the other dare not ask for true love, even though they already have physical contact, she still treats it as a trade. It wasn't until she was forced to show up at the sword trial meeting that she found out that Jiang Hu Fei Kou was actually a disciple of the Sword Demon, and openly molested the eldest son of the Hou family. She finally obtained the seventh medicinal ingredient, but also attracted countless criticisms and pursuits. She could only hide invisibly and occasionally show up to meet him. But love has never been the most important thing in her heart, and there is still one last medicine she needs to find. While running for her life, she entrusted him with the seven-flavored medicine she had obtained. He was already paranoid and vicious, jealous of her master's position in her heart, so he actually followed other people's tricks and used two of the medicines on his marriage partner without authorization. (This dog!) The heroine is stupid because she only knows how to give and allows others to bully her but cannot learn to hate and retaliate. After she had gone through so much trouble to get the last medicine, the joy of finally getting the last of her hardships had not lasted long when she learned of his betrayal. As if she was hit hard, she was disheartened, decided to leave, and then continued to plan to go deep into the barbarian land to replenish the missing medicinal materials. The male protagonist knows that she is once again in danger, and it can be said that there is no return. No matter how jealous he was, he couldn't compete with the panic of losing her completely, so he followed her footsteps.

Curator note
The front and back are separated and taken for granted. The pure and bright atmosphere of the campus part at the beginning gave me a great illusion. The female protagonist is noisy and carefree, but is actually sensitive and thoughtful; the male protagonist is the same white-skinned, white-shirted boy who doesn't like to sweat every time he reads it in campus novels. They are two people who are more ambiguous than their deskmates. She always likes to deliberately provoke him, and she also likes how delicate and gentle he is from time to time when she sees him going berserk because of her anger. The senior year of high school had a heavy workload, and he wanted to go to the same university as his deskmate. He was also angry with her for being playful and unpredictable, but once he got a promise from her, he forgot all his worries. The school and the heroine's home are two different worlds. Her twisted and twisted parents made her breathless as always, until another man was hidden in her mother's room, until she came home and saw blood all over the floor, and her father stood outside the door with a knife. The piece of rotten flesh deep inside her body began to spread, and she began to have trances, fantasies, and finally collapsed, and was admitted to the hospital as mentally ill. The almost withered person refused the last drop of water, and the heroine broke up with the hero cruelly, even though they had never really been together. A year later, the heroine defeated herself and re-enrolled in the hero's university. Their reunion came quickly, but there was no drama of affectionate waiting for their reunion. Standing next to him was his childhood sweetheart, the person she hated. He clearly couldn't bear to forget her old relationship and couldn't help but turned around and said they wouldn't keep in touch. So she showed weakness and seduced him, trapping him in her dormitory on the snowy and lonely New Year's Eve, dragging him into hell with her. The female protagonist just waited carefully for the male protagonist to comfort her Qingmei and parents at home, and then turn around to have sex with her. She is plotting revenge against the person who first walked out of her world. People in the book world are always hungry... What's more, the author's writing style is completely in line with my aesthetics. Every stroke and every stroke is just right. However, the setting steps on my favorite point and turns into a knife, which is painful and happy.
