   🔥🔥The protagonist is reborn into a family where he's the darling of everyone. He has a system but doesn't rely on it excessively; in fact, the system's presence is quite minimal. The little system is also adorably timid. To his students, the protagonist plays a mentor-student/friend role, a kind of mutual redemption. The students give him a sense of belonging, and he'll appear in their time of need, communicate with their parents, and use his connections to help them grow. The author's writing is excellent, there's no female lead, and it's really good!
