Answer 1

This plot would usually appear in a CEO novel or a novel about the grievances of a wealthy family. The male lead was usually a tall, charming CEO or a young master from a wealthy family. At the beginning, he would hurt the female lead severely to test her feelings for him. However, when the male protagonist found that he really fell in love with the female protagonist, he would become extremely fanatical and try to win the female protagonist's heart. The female protagonist may have sympathy or compassion for the male protagonist at first, but as time went by, she gradually found that she also began to fall in love with the male protagonist. However, because the female lead had been hurt before, she did not want to hurt the male lead, so she would reject the male lead's feelings. The male protagonist may feel angry, disappointed or desperate and decide to imprison the female protagonist to prove that his love for the female protagonist is real and hope that she can return to his side. This kind of plot usually has a certain degree of violence or abuse. The readers need to take care to protect their mental health.
