Hello!... more>>

This is the second part to ‘A collection of chinese romance novels’ since I have reached 100 stories limit on the first one. 

I will be following the same format and organizing it when I have the time! The novels here will all be decently rated because that usually means it’s worthwhile! Ofc It will be ordered from highest to lowest for ease.

I hope this helps you find the next story without trouble, cheers! :)
