In detective novels, there are often new detectives (new faces) but the basic mystery - solving story is the same. They find clues, interview suspects, and in the end, solve the crime. For example, many modern detective stories follow the same pattern as the classic ones, just with different characters.

Well, think about historical fiction. There are new authors writing about historical events (new faces), but the stories often follow the same pattern. For instance, many books about the Tudor period in England might have new characters or perspectives, but the basic story of court intrigue, power struggles, and romances is the same as in many other books on the same topic. It's like the framework of the story remains the same while only the details and the characters are new.

Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!
