   Super good! No romantic pairing. The female lead is bound to a system and becomes a mission taker, opening shops in different worlds. Every story outside is incredibly engaging. Highly recommended!!!

    These are all ones I've seen before and thought were pretty good. ①I'm really fed up. I always mistook Jiang Qi for a woman, even after I found out he was a man. I still often mistook him for a woman. 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞 ② I like the lighthearted feel of this genre, with no truly awful characters. I found myself following the story without even realizing it, and it's about mutual benefit with the nation. The male and female leads have very positive values. 👍👍👍 ③ I don't want the protagonist to get married. That wife is too stupid. Why not just give him a spirit pet? Why does he have to marry her?

    I think these two books are good! The first one is really good. I hope you have a patient personality to watch it. The first time I watched it, I didn't think much of it, but the second time I really liked it. The second book is quite good, but the male lead is too arrogant; I almost want to punch him. I hope he quickly becomes a warm and caring man and reaches the pinnacle of life with the female lead.
