Looking for a good romance novel where the female lead doesn’t thigh hug (depend on) the male lead all the way to the finish line. Looking for a female lead that is mature, rational, and independent and can survive without kissing up to the male lead or use him as some kind of cheat.
Rebirth of a Star General!! Of all the stories the author made, this was the one that's to my taste. She's very rational and independent, characterizes on her strengths, and is not into face-slapping as showing the true faces of the villains of the story. She's really great. It's not fully translated yet, but if you check out the MTL at Novelhall, it's still readable
