Please recommend an ancient novel in which the male protagonist disguises himself as a weakling and hides his identity. He is initially protected by the female protagonist, but later turns into the male protagonist protecting the female protagonist.

Is there a novel recommendation?

Answer 1

😋I recommend the novel "The Lord of the Phoenix's Weaves" to you. The male protagonist played the weak and hid his identity. The female protagonist protected him at first, and then he protected the female protagonist. It was full of love and sweetness. This was an ancient romance novel with a compact plot and was very exciting and vivid. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
