[Multiple Female Leads] 🌸I Like You and Them🌸
🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 🌸 With delicate brows and peach blossoms in bloom. Love is a mystery: we know not where it begins, where it finds a home, where it takes root, how it can be untangled, where it disappears, or where it ends. One year added to life, one year taken away; Call you my darling, then chide you, my darling. Here you'll find the ideal first love, pure and sincere; The shy, bewildered experience of being loved, with one person giving their all and the other lost and unsure; A

Lofty mountains and flowing streams, and life beyond our own. The heroes of the past, and romance in the days to come. The rules of the game, and breaking them. The belief that where there's a will, there's a way, and that life goes on, whether the weather is fair or foul. The sunset is free, and beer costs only a f

Eunuch Novels Worthy of Godhood...
It is not the book that is abandoned, but the person, or perhaps the book that was never completed, or one where only a book or two reached completion before the author vanished without a trace and the web-fiction world heard nothing more. In the dead of night, the memory of it always leaves me with the aching sensation of tears poured into the eastern sea and the wish to offer a hundred lives to rise from the Nine Springs...

There's an art to recommending books, so I'll recommend good ones to everyone. I'll mainly focus on great books that have been overlooked. For example, books that haven't been featured on Qidian. If you can find them here and nowhere else, your only other option is to read the big-name books with flashy covers on Qidian. If you know a good book, leave a comment. I don't delete ads here, since authors have it tough too, and I'm recommending books to you all. Of course, you have the right to leav

One Book, One World: Relax, Unwind, and Have a Laugh
I have one rule when reading: no matter how much the author makes things up, the world needs a complete set of rules. There have to be limits.
Someone’s Bound to Like These
I always believe there's someone out there who likes the same books I do.
For Saving
In my opinion, these are top-tier works. A great story can stand the test of time. I’ve been reading for years, from the old transmigrate-to-the-Three-Kingdoms stories to tomb-raiding, infinite-flow, and quick transmigration novels. Many works felt fresh and thrilling at first, but after letting them sit for a while, I had no desire to read them a second time. The nature of web novels means most writing doesn’t hold up to close scrutiny. Many works that rely on flashy, ornate prose vanish like c

I've been reading since 2005, but there aren't many books I can reread. Time-tested books are the real classics. Newbies looking for a quick thrill, stay away. Feel free to leave a comment and recommend older books.
Gentle Spring Light, All Things Clear
The Cold Food Festival has passed, and the breeze is clear beneath bright skies. A gentle wind brushes your face as you head out for a springtime stroll. Transmigrate through three thousand years of history, and gently leaf through cartloads of books. Amid the endless web novels, where bustle and restlessness reign, there are stories with calm, graceful prose and flowing, artful structures. Reading them feels like a spring breeze on your cheek or a mountain stream washing over your feet. Fresh

The author, Shui Yezi, is a university professor of pre-Qin literature. This book was written during her graduate studies. The author passed away yesterday due to a sudden heart attack at the age of 42. May he rest in peace. May the author rest in peace!
The protagonist is indecisive and hesitant, unwilling to get involved in court intrigues yet reluctant to relinquish his connections with high-ranking officials, which is disappointing.
What a pity. Rest in peace!
Actually, writing a book is very hard work for the author. I think as readers, we should read it, not criticize it. Those who criticize are just spray bottles.
I don't know about the writing style. All I know is that several chapters are missing, and if the links aren't even connected, what's the point of reading? I lost interest after only about 40 chapters. I could tolerate missing chapters in a pirated version once or twice, but four or five times? Ugh, I can't keep reading.
In the Tang Dynasty, civil servants were controlled by powerful landowners with connections and a large number of henchmen! As an ordinary person without military support, you wouldn't even know when your family would be wiped out. Don't try to apply modern social ideas to ancient times, or you'll suffer a terrible fate!
This book is becoming increasingly unreadable. At first, the widow, due to feudal superstitions, can only sleep with the male lead after eight months. Finally, after eight months, she says it would be best if they were married. The maid also says that she can't be the first to sleep with the male lead since the young lady hasn't shared a room with him.
What I don't understand the most is why poor people still have children.
Ten years have passed, and this is the third time I've read this book.
The protagonist, upon becoming a civil servant for the first time, immediately uses his power to settle personal scores. I thought that having the protagonist use his own abilities to exact revenge would demonstrate both a clear distinction between public and private matters and showcase his competence. This book, however, is morally questionable and I highly discourage its recommendation.
