The King of Normies Doesn't Fall in Love

Seeing this really resonated with me. I once had a girl I liked, and she liked me too. Maybe it was because we met too early. We knew each other in middle school, but we had to separate after a lot happened—family circumstances, academic performance, and so on. The day we broke up, I only said one thing: "Study hard, don't end up like me," and then ran home. Yes, I was pathetic; I left her and myself. That night, I cried in bed, and I regretted it. She was much better than me academically and could have gotten into a good high school. What about me? My grades were always bad, and I ended up in a vocational school. Back then, I was still...

Having read the second volume, I have to rant a bit. First, let's talk about the male lead's character... His personality is... Well. Earlier, it was mentioned that Nan Lan's father accused him, which led to the male lead's father's imprisonment. There's still a lot I haven't read, but I think he just wanted to climb the social ladder and exploited the male lead's father's womanizing ways. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense to say the two families had a good relationship before such a reversal. Then he said he used this as a reason to threaten Nan Lan into leaving the male lead. Honestly, no matter how they try to justify it later, I think the male lead should hate this family to the core. Put yourself in their shoes—because of this family, his father went to jail, and he, a 14-year-old child, had to raise...

Come back! Why dwell on Nanlan's childhood? Cast aside the magnolia in your hand. Come back! What has happened, Nanlan, cannot be changed; the mistakes already made cannot be corrected. Come back! Nanlan, he has already accepted your water lily, so why be that red anemone? Come back! Nanlan, the story of your clematis is over, so why blame yourself? Come back! Nanlan, come back! This is a stranger calling your soul; he is willing to be a lightning bolt of hope, to shatter your unrealistic fantasies. Come back! Nanlan, come back! Your love is as ephemeral as a morning glory; your hatred for your father will ultimately become nourishment for your growth. I don't want you...

Today's update includes a post-episode story, absolutely no delays!

This is my last update, please accept it.

This is the author's first book, but the plot, character development, and emotional expression are all reasonable and engaging. While the female lead's emotional development is indeed rapid, it's well-justified and can be seen as the author's desire to avoid padding and get straight to the point. The psychological descriptions, though lengthy, are essential. Although the premise is that the male lead must choose one woman as his sole love, seeing the tag (true harem) puts some reassurance, as each female lead is captivating. Ultimately, I think this book deserves higher recognition for its quality. I believe the author will persevere...

Actually, when I first searched for the campus tag, the first thing I saw was a novel with over three million words titled "Rich, Rich, and Handsome Guy." I read it for an afternoon, and well, to be honest, the author's writing is truly excellent, but the flaws are too obvious. The whole book is pseudo-NTR (Netorare, a term for infidelity/relationships). So, I had to switch to "The King of the Social Life." After reading that, I found the author's writing to be very good, but the plot was more formulaic than "Rich, Rich, and Handsome Guy," though it couldn't match the sheer volume. The character development was also more perfect. I highly recommend "Southern Lan" (I don't know why, but I prefer the underdog story _(:з"∠)_).

I haven't read such a delicate novel in a long time. I especially loved the descriptions of each character's inner thoughts, and how their intertwined emotions didn't feel chaotic at all. I'm really looking forward to the next development, to seeing the struggles between the male and female leads. However, I still feel that Mu Mu's character is written too lightly, both compared to Qing Ling and Nan Lan. The events between Mu Mu and Chen Cheng, as they stand, don't seem quite worthy of my affection yet. Perhaps it's just Mu Mu teasing me? It's hard to say. Anyway, I hope the author's writing continues to improve!

It's not finished yet, there's still one volume left.

I must say, this is a novel with excellent character development (in my memory). Initially, I wasn't particularly interested in this kind of mindless, lighthearted harem novel, but I was wrong. The characters and plot are far from being a typical mindless harem story. From the very beginning, the character setup piqued my curiosity. Unlike typical harem protagonists, the male lead has a remarkably "strong" past, which makes the reader feel a strong connection to him. It's in this context that readers, initially unaware of his ex-girlfriend's actions and filled with righteous indignation for the male lead through their commentary, gradually develop a deeper understanding of Nan Lan's...
