    New book, a female-to-male transmigration story with a system, where the protagonist is reborn as an old man. The good news is: following the original story's plot, he can live for nearly eighty years + a cheat system (a system to improve his character's scumbag nature). The bad news is: he's a man in his forties 😭 and he's the worst of the worst. The protagonist is sweet on the outside but ruthless on the inside, shrewd, calculating, and a complete egoist.

    These are all! The first book, as simple and comforting as a heart-to-heart talk. The second book features a modern couple who transmigrate into the world. The third book is about a time-traveling protagonist who rises to wealth in a mountain village. The fourth character isn't the kind with a saintly heart; he has a clear sense of right and wrong and knows how to play it safe and develop his strength.
