    I read this a long time ago. If I remember correctly, the protagonist (the one who gets dumped) became depressed because he was treated like he was invisible for two years (I think it was this one). It seems to be a bit angsty, but it has a happy ending.

    Curator note

    I have nothing to say about Mo Xiang Tong Xiu's emotional storylines and writing style; the only idiom to describe it is "breathtaking." This book has been a part of my youth for five years. I bought the physical book and read it four times in total. Each time I read it, I gained different insights and understandings, as if I were getting to know them all again each year. It's a truly magical feeling. I don't usually like to reread novels I've read before, but Heaven Official's Blessing seems to have a special magic, enticing me to open it again and again. Even though I know all the plot developments and the mastermind behind everything, I still open it, like greeting an old friend. Yes, an old friend. We've known each other for five years, and we have plenty of time to get to know each other again. Thank you, Heaven Official's Blessing, for appearing in my life, allowing me the privilege of experiencing their joys and sorrows, witnessing the myriad aspects of life and the diverse faces of humanity. I often smile when I think of them, and I feel fortunate to have met fellow enthusiasts; fellow fans are truly lovely. Thank you, Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, for presenting this story in its entirety; it is truly a treasure in my life. (Laughs)
