    The first book has no romantic pairing; it's a bromance story that I developed myself. It's written by Zhou Yibai and Sui Xiaotian, with a humorous tone and a little angst later on. There's no female lead, it's a slow-burn, character-development story. The two main characters are weak at first but gradually become stronger. There are also many supporting characters that are great to ship, such as Shang Ye x He Buyi and Jin Sizheng x Jin Zigui. It's quite good. The second book is also without romantic pairing; it's a sequel to the first book and is still being serialized. The main character is He Buyi. The author is very diligent, updating two chapters a day, ensuring quality and quantity. She reads and replies to all book reviews carefully; it's definitely worth investing in.
