Synopsis

[Background Male Lead] + [Absolutely Rational] + [Absolutely Self-Serving] + [Light Novel] + [Love Triangle Drama] + [Brutal Power Fantasy] + [Rich Heiresses] + [Genius]

My name is Lu Pingsheng. Some people say I lack emotions, some call me a cold-blooded monster, and others say I'm a human-shaped Tyrannosaurus. I just pretend not to hear them.

Head to the main story for more. The synopsis can only convey part of it.

Crossover Stories With a Powerful Protagonist Who Has the Mindset and Presence of a True Strongman

So many crossover novels have protagonists who lack the mindset of a strong person and can't act or speak normally. They always come across as obnoxious: either they're the sarcastic sidekick, act like idiots, go full chuunibyou, or behave like useless good-for-nothings. I really don't like that.
