    This is a good book; it's a true example of a seemingly ordinary yet incredibly wealthy protagonist, and it's also the author's autobiography. I've been wondering who he actually married in real life. I think a true "wish-fulfillment" story isn't about how many luxury cars and mansions the protagonist has, or how many women he has in his harem. I've read too many of those harem stories; they're all so repetitive that I'm visually fatigued and can't get into them anymore. I think a real "wish-fulfillment" story must be close to real life; that's what makes it feel authentic and relatable, allowing readers to identify with the character and experience the thrill. The author is probably a second-generation rich kid in real life; some of the details are well-described, and I learned a lot from them. I searched for a long time to find one I liked, but unfortunately, it's a new book and not many people are reading it yet. Please take a few minutes to check it out!

    These two books are urban novels that closely reflect real life. The first one is particularly good.
