Looking for a book like Office Drone? Pfft, I'm a Billionaire Now! I once read a sci-fi story with two male leads.

I want secret identities + no CP + everyone loves the protagonist + a frail original body + identities that are never exposed.

Although the settings are similar to JJ's "I rely on drawing cards to create a character", the content is different. It's tied, the content is very enjoyable, and there are no big surprises so far. It's a bit confusing at the end. Not to mention anything else, a single NPC who purely introduces the background takes up almost two chapters.
Introduction to Vision "I rely on drawing cards to concave characters". I watched it several times and couldn't find the same type, so this is it👀
It's good to read. I've read the same type of book before, but I couldn't find a meal replacement for a long time. Now I finally have one, so don't stop reading! ! ! Very nice [send heart][send heart][send heart]
The subject matter is very novel and eye-catching, especially the mother's domineering cub-drawing system. Although it is a time-travel novel, I think this semi-forced host to do tasks and this cold and business-like system are very annoying. And then, the races in that space feel so pitiful. They can't get out, and the protagonist can't draw them, so I hope the author can draw more characters in the future. Oops, I have so many thoughts. I rarely write long reviews, but it is really good to read. Don't be deterred by perfunctory covers and low ratings (The author is very grateful. If you can, try to change to a better-looking cover. At least it shouldn't be so AI-flavored, because this kind of AI cover makes many people have no desire to click in. If the author blames this, I didn't say it)
It's good-looking and interesting. The writing is beautiful and the protagonist is very powerful. I like it. It was great in the early stages, but it fell apart after more than 130 chapters.
This is the first time I have encountered this kind of subject matter. The author writes very well, and the water flows smoothly. I was fascinated by it, but it is a bit lacking. I hope the author will continue to update [Send my heart][Send my heart][Send my heart]
Very nice. The subject matter is quite new, and the emotional drama is pretty good so far. It should be 1v1, quite sweet. Each character creation is okay, each has its own characteristics, and the writing is okay. I hope the author will update more and of course take a good rest.
Come on, author! It's really, really beautiful and imaginative. I really hope you can complete the 3 million words. I wish you lots of likes and compliments. Please write more.
It's so beautiful, I like gray hair so much, it's so cute (♡´∀`♡) You're so cute, boss, you're so diligent in updating, who knows how to update four chapters a day, you're such a model worker, I love you so much (≖‿≖)✧ Come on, boss, I will always support you! (◍•ᴗ•◍)♡♬
The rating may be a bit low, but I really like this kind of subject matter. The articles are quite novel and the writing style is very good. Especially the short stories are very interesting! But there may be a little bit of repetition when drawing cards (although I don't mind, I think it's okay), Kelis's arrogant personality really poked me, and the image of the protagonist is also quite good. Overall, it is a long-running article, the atmosphere is very warm, and the ideas are quite good. All in all, it's worth a read, so cheers to the author!
