if you're looking for witty FL's and ML's that will warm your heart, this is the right place! After going through countless CN novels, I'm on a quest to find the best ones and put them in this list with ratings and detailed reviews :)) (list is sorted by rating)
overall: 10/10... more>>
seriously crying now that this novel has come to an end. i binged it in an entire day because it was that good. it had me laughing, smiling, getting anxious, **a little bit of spice too ;))**, everything that you'd categorize as feelings of youth were portrayed perfectly in this novel: friendship, family, love, overcoming obstacles, finding your path, etc etc. there was just so much to love in this story that by the end of the novel, i felt fully immersed in the world. onto the ML and the FL, all i can say is that their relationship is the kind i want tbh. i don't want to spoil a lot but the tiny actions and the effort that they put in is just so heartwarming and wonderful to read. whenever i read chapters where the two were together, i was either laughing or smiling so hard. if u read the novel, you'll def understand why. AND THE SIDE CHARACTERS. LOVE LOVE LOVED THEM SO MUCH. instead of making every female a villain (a very common trope in cn novels for some reason prob to highlight the best aspects of the fl), we have realistic characters. some you won't like and others grow from their behavior. this is something that rly impressed me as most cn novels like to focus on making the fl and the ml the only "good" characters. additionally, the fact that both of them are lawyers makes this sooooo funny. the FL is seriously so smart with the way she butters up to everyone (she deserves an award for best actress tbh). and the ML will def not lose in a verbal altercation with the FL. they're seriously PERFECT for each other. now on most reviews that i do i like to address the negative reviews that the novel has cus ik that they can affect whether or not you read the story. . the first complaint that people have is that the FL is dense and naive and dumb (way too dumb) to be a lawyer. to be fair, the FL does have a pretty low EQ. While she's charismatic and a smooth talker, she tends to not notice things around her. Now in regards to her feelings with the ML: [spoiler] its lightly talked abt in the novel but she has an inferiority complex when faced with the ML. she def doesn't think that he would EVER like her and with his personality, its hard to imagine for her that he would have feelings for anyone (other than that mo girl). in fact, even if he did anything that could be considered romantic, the way he does it is enough to make her think he's doing it out of pity lol.

genuinely loved every bit of this story, the FL is seriously one of the best leads in a novel. She isn't too OP and instead, uses her charm and knowledge to help her survive in the imperial courts. And the writing too, the author needs to be commended. The author really drags you into the story with all the world-building and characters. The ML, chef's kiss. He understands boundaries (a rarity for a lot of these novels)! And don't be deterred by that one review that says our FL is scheming and that the ML is obsessive. FL clearly studied psychology during her life pre-transmigration and it can be seen with the way she's able to analyze situations she's in. She uses this to her advantage along with her natural charisma and positions herself in a manner to gain benefits. On the other hand, the ML is deeply in love with the FL and yes, he is obsessed with her, but not in any bad way. I'd say out of the entire novel, he only did one thing that truly made him a "yandere" and the FL stopped him before it could go bad. So overall, I'd say give this novel a shot if you want to read a nice novel surrounding family life (the cutest family relationships ever) and to see a really smart FL who is absolutely adorable as well. The ML and FL will truly make you eat dog food the more u read, its way too cute. I mtled the rest of the novel solely because of how good it was and the MTL was super easy to read so really, give it a shot. You won't be disappointed and it'll leave you wanting more. Fair warning though, don't expect immediate love. The story first goes through FL and her family with ML on the side, and it eventually goes to just ML and FL.

before reading this, i want to give a warning that this is a very niche fantasy book that some people may not like and may even find annoying. included tropes are a second life, possessive ML, martial arts (the second half of the novel is centered around this), entertainment industry (first half), secret past, gender-bender, amnesia, childcare, and more. if you are looking for a realistic/serious novel, you are NOT going to find that here. now that that's out of the way, please make it atleast 1/4 chapters in before saying no to this novel. not everything is as it seems and everything starts to make more sense as the novel goes on. the FL is one of the funniest (and shameless!!!) protagonists that i've ever read. her wit and sense of humor is not found in a lot of other cn novels which i found refreshing. on top of everything, she's a complete badass and can hold her own in a fight (physically and verbally). furthermore, as we enter the second half of the novel, her personality gets even funnier. the ML takes a while to redeem himself and begins to learn that he can't the FL to himself and that she has to grow on her own as well. the relationship between the FL and ML is on a thin rope in the beginning of the novel, and we see how both of them make their own decisions to build a better relationship. the second half of the novel takes is more fantastical route as the FL goes on a journey to chase the ML and finds the true history behind her past (all of which has been hinted at throughout the novel). i really enjoyed the FL's relationship with her friends and subordinates, it added so much character to her. i can understand the low ratings of this novel as it is slow in the beginning, but if you are willing to read the rest, it's a true treasure. of course, there are so many random tropes that are thrown together that make you go wtf? but as stated before, it's not a serious novel but more a fantasy novel. it greatly entertained me and i spent DAYS binging this book and i've reread it several times because of how much i love the FL. i would really recommend this if you're looking for some really cute interactions between the little family (and their tiger), good face slapping, an extreme shameless protagonist, and a laugh. my rating is extremely biased as this novel was catered perfectly to me and it is my favorite cn novel to date. i have to take a point off though because of the length though but otherwise it is a gem!

thought this was going to be a more mature love story as the FL cannot hear nor speak. However, this exceeded my expectations. This was a story filled with hilarious characters (literally everyone lol) and every chapter had my heart doing flips. The FL is adorable and only has the ML in her eyes, ITS SO CUTE. This is a story about healing for both the characters. The FL is able to live again with her general (AHHHHHH) and the ML fights his own demons. Best thing is, the ML may seem to be one of those domineering, almost perfect ML's, but the author does a perfect job of capturing his human side. He's sweet to his friends, and misunderstood by a lot of people, but once he has his mind set on something he really gives it his all. That's probably the best part of this novel is watching the effort he puts in for not only the FL but also his friends (in a more low-key manner tho). The FL is also his number 1 supporter which makes this novel all the sweeter. Seriously tho, this novel had me grinning ear to ear with how cute it was. Every character had something to add, and the worldbuilding was great!!! Definitely recommend this story to anyone looking for a sweet romance in a school setting.

WARNING: if you dislike fantastical novels with cliché tropes and are looking for realistic/serious stories, this one isn't for you.
another one of my all time favorites and one i can re-read so many times and still not get over it. it is an entertaining read and takes the readers on a ride (lots of action and fluff). the ML has to be one of my favorites of all time even though he follows the classic mold of a cold CEO. however, he cares deeply for his brother and the FL and he provides healthy boundaries so that the FL can grow on her own. he never forces her and waits patiently for her, and so does the little bun (ML's son). a lot of the novel is focused on the FL's growth in the entertainment industry, giving credit to her skills as an actress. there are some really cute jealous scenes when the FL has to act intimate with her costars (female and male LOL). the FL is an independent woman and fights her own battles, and the ML lets her do what she wants (while helping a little bit in the background). there are gangs involved in the novel and we learn that the FL is one of the best snipers, and used to be part of the 2nd ML's gang. the FL is a complete badass but is so cute when she deals with the ML and the little bun. the two have to deal with her past relationships, his family, and people trying to ruin the FL. there are parts of the novel which were so emotional that i had tears (near the second half), especially facing the ML's devotion. it has parts of romance and comedy, action and thriller, grief and loss. of course this novel won't be for everyone but read this novel with a grain of salt and you may also find this novel high up in your list!

this was a fluffy romance with a very interesting FL (her train of thought will have u laughing) and the ML is just as funny. At times, you will get annoyed with some characters (a mild annoyance and this was mainly in the very beginning of the novel). BUT LITERALLY, EVERY CHARACTER WAS SO FUNNY. The FL and her friend group had me cracking up seriously. I also love how the ML and FL act around each other (it's so cute). Def heartwarming to read and loved the aspects of figure skating and sports that were incorporated here. IF UR LOOKING FOR A NOVEL WITH A FUNNY FL AND AN EQUALLY FUNNIER ML HERE IT IS. They're both very scheming as well (the pranks they play on each other lol). Seriously this novel will have u hooked and laughing so hard so give it a try especially if you're trying to find a light-hearted novel. My only issue with this novel is the somewhat colorist jokes they make which are uncomfortable to read, and I understand that in Asian culture, it's common but still just wanted to give u a heads up.

the story is very cliche but you'll fall in love with the fl and the ml. the fl is so funny and childish and she will having you laugh while reading the novel. the ml and his pet bird are the funniest duo and the three of them together make some of the best scenes in the novel. the connection between the two grows throughout the story and it's so heartening to see the adventures they go through together. the ogfl and ogml are initially very annoying until you realize that they have a different set of "perfect morals" which the fl changes within them. while the fl may be seen as selfish or having questionable morals, she values the people around her the most and will not sacrifice them. her and the ml are the perfect pair as she acts silly and coquettish with him and he lets her do what she wants. everyone grows in this novel except the big villain who gets what they deserve (although i wish they got more). the world building is great and even smaller side characters get their own backstory. overall, this was written very well and the relationship between the ml and the fl is so funny to witness. if you want a funny and comforting novel, this is the one for you!

i loved this novel and it is absolutely wonderful to read if you're looking for a cute and comforting light-read romance. if you want a bit more action and drama in a novel, this one probably won't do it for you. it's definitely a more realistic and mature take in terms of romance, especially in cn novels. a lot of cn novels have strong, witty and intelligent Fl's that unfortunately don't play the part as well as their description. however, in this novel, our FL is nothing short of a marketing genius (even if that isn't her real job lol). she has the perfect mix between EQ and IQ, and it's very comforting to see how professional she is at handling conflict. the reason why the novel loses a few points is that even though the ML is wonderful and an absolute gem, he follows the same standard ML mold - rich, daddy issues, and powerful. he has his own unique qualities, he is NICE to other people (not only the FL) which warmed my heart. he rly cares for his employees and while he does use that as an excuse to hang out with the FL more, it's super endearing. this novel is a pretty basic romance and in spite of its basicness, it was still really cute to read. however, at times it did seem a little boring, with basically no drama except a few side villains who dont rly stand a chance against the ML. i did think that some of the extras were cuter to read than the actual story but don't let that sway you. the story is a really nice light read, and i would recommend it to anyone who wants to take a break after reading a really emotional novel.

Loveee the detailed review for each of these novels! As a fan of 'Don’t Fall In Love With The Boss', I recommend watching the drama based off it 'Legally Romance'! Its really cute and fluffy!
