Power Couple (Feisty FL + Smart ML)

Power Couple (Feisty FL + Smart ML)
Novels I've completed reading where FL is brave/self-sufficient and ML is smart/supportive . Both have strong commitment and good communication in their relationship. Both undergoes character and career growth.. 

There were lot of novels out there that have brave FL and supportive ML but they fell flat for me as characters seems OP and there were really no character and career growth (yep, I'm looking for novels with REALISTIC career narrative).

    Heartfire by Mibao / 心火燎缘 by 靡宝

    Ren Qinqin summed up her relationship with Shen Duo—— Her mother and his father gave birth to a son out of wedlock... Not a step-brother, barely a relative, right? This man has everything she yearns for: wealth, social status, knowledge, taste, contacts... And she is also a girl who is not willing to be poor and wants to stand out. Therefore, when Shen Duo told her that he could train her to be a lady. She put herself into the palm of this man. In this regard, seven years of meticulous work have been opened and we have grown together. It also opened up the love and bond between the two of them in the second half of their lives... Mr. Ba raised the Cinderella heroine into a goddess by hand, and then the fat and water did not flow to outsiders.

    吊橋效應 by 法拉栗 (R18+) 
    Zhong Xi admitted that when she was addicted to idol dramas, she had fantasies about being trapped on a deserted island with her sweetheart, and then stuffed with sauce. But this person should never be her career rival, the most annoying person in her life-Jiang Kezhi. A few days later, Zhong Xi looked at the two crabs mating on the beach, turned his head fascinatedly, and opened his mouth: "..." A cold voice came from behind: "Impossible." However, they still fell asleep. By the bonfire, the two reached a consensus and signed the "Three Agreements on Deserted Island": 1. Only make love, not talk about feelings and not kiss. 2. one, three, five men go, two, four, six women go, recuperate on Sundays. 3. This physical relationship is only limited to deserted islands. Once returned to China, it will be terminated immediately. Don't make this past public, and continue to stay old and dead, both physically and mentally. "It's just that, at the end of the story, they didn't do one of them.
