    These two books are post-apocalyptic disaster novels, without a romantic pairing. The female lead is cautious and intelligent, not the kind of character who wreaks havoc in a fantasy novel. She's just an ordinary person whose thinking and ideas are geared towards the military. She has a private space that she never shows to others, and her teammates are only temporary.

    These are all excellent books on Tomato Books. The first one has superb writing, reminiscent of reading Dragon Raja back in the day. The second one also has a good plot and writing style, with a captivating protagonist. I also enjoyed the sweet moments between the male and female leads, although there weren't many. The third one is a breath of fresh air among the ghost stories or game-themed books I've read. The author has created their own system, with both suspense and engaging writing. Unfortunately, the author updates too slowly, so it's not very popular. I finished the first chapter; it was truly excellent.

    The first book was highly recommended, even on Xiaohongshu (a Chinese social media platform), and I recommended it to everyone I met. The last two were new books I read. The second book also had a refreshing theme, both funny and sweet, which veteran readers would love. The third book was a redemption story, with the woman redeeming the man, but the main characters' setup really appealed to me. The fourth book, needless to say, featured a rare second male lead who rose to power and doted on the female lead.
