Reading reviews or summaries of the novel (but not too much to avoid spoilers) can be helpful. It can give you a general sense of what others thought about the book. You can also make predictions based on the title. If the title is something like 'The Lost City', you can start thinking about what kind of city it might be, why it's lost, etc. And finally, familiarize yourself with the time period in which the story is set. If it's set in the 1920s, learn about the fashion, social norms, and major events of that time as it will add depth to your understanding of the novel.

One pre - reading activity could be researching the author. Knowing about the author's background, their other works, and their writing style can give you insights into what to expect from the novel. For example, if the author is known for writing mystery novels, you can anticipate elements of suspense and intrigue in the upcoming read. Another activity is looking at the book cover and reading the blurb. The cover might give visual clues about the theme or setting, and the blurb usually gives a brief summary that can pique your interest and give you an idea of the main plot.

Pure Evil Villain Female Lead *"True, Good, and Beautiful" Green Tea Male Supporting Actor (cannon fodder) [New Year's Eve/Not Pure Ancient Words/Sweet Pet/Scum Abuser/1v1SC/Black Plains Male and Female Lead/Female Lead's Vicious Villain] Mo Lian, who was heavily injured and unconscious, had a dream. In the dream, the world was a huge and thick book of words. All the order revolved around the male and female protagonists, and she was the strongest villain here. In the end…she died an unnatural death. Since he was a villain and knew his ending, how could he be a qualified vicious villain if he did not change it? She would definitely crush anyone who tried to stop her from living in the future. * Zi Sangyue and Mo Lian were two extremes. If Mo Lian was said to be a poisonous snake born under the Buddha, dark, vicious, and cunning, then Zi Sangyue was a god who was born to give hope and warmth to all living beings. Viper wanted to make the gods remember her kindness for the rest of their lives, but the gods fell. Zi Sangyue had once sworn not to kill anyone, but he had broken his vows and killed many people for Mo Lian. "Didn't you say you'd rather die than hurt people?" I thought you would come up and block the knife for me. However…the current situation is very interesting." Zi Sangyue stared at the poisonous snake that had trapped him. She smiled gently."My wife doesn't want me to get hurt. They want to hurt my beloved wife, so this is the only way." Mo Lian thought,…Alright, but since when did he become so familiar with calling her "Madam"? [It's not purely an ancient saying. In the later stages, it will involve the Reincarnation Demon God. This male protagonist is still a god, in charge of reincarnation!] [Male Lead: Zi Sangyue (Ghavan)]
