   Absolutely no romance [heart]. The first book is one I recently read. It starts with the ex-boyfriend who never reappears, and it's all about the female lead building her career. If you dislike plagiarism or long movie summaries (which include plot details), please don't read it. [Heart] The second book is genuinely good. Aside from a few derogatory terms, it features many distinctive female characters who are ambitious and capable. [Heart] The third book has many male supporting characters. If you dislike male protagonists with prominent roles, please don't read it. If you dislike long stories, please don't read it. If you dislike ambiguous romantic relationships, please don't read it (many people ship them, but they're not actually a couple). [Heart] The fourth and fifth are post-apocalyptic stories. The former has a genuinely mentally ill protagonist, and the latter is incredibly strong (the latter might not fit the typical Xianyu (a Chinese online marketplace) audience; if you're only reading it for that reason, please don't read it). [Heart] The sixth book is a story about a super-rich person, which is quite sophisticated. As for why I say that, you can read it yourself; it just feels sophisticated (it has...). (I forgot what my triggers are) [heart] Books 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 are all about female protagonists, no romance. Book 8 shouldn't be limited by the "spoiled wife" theme; the focus is on "gender equality." After a few chapters, the female lead starts to dislike the male lead because she realizes that she doesn't love him as a male lead, but rather the rights given to him by the outside world, the right to allow him freedom. [Heart] Book 12 is good, but I prefer fast-paced, tightly plotted stories. If you're not into meticulous writing, plagiarism, cross-dressing, or excessive physical descriptions, please don't read it. (Ps. I found it very enjoyable to read continuously, but it was boring and awkward when read intermittently.) Overall, it's a warm and gentle story. [Heart] Book 15 is good; the turnaround is satisfying, but avoid the male-centric plot highlights. The first person she signed was a man, so please don't read it if you're bothered by that.

   These are all non-CP (no romantic pairing), I highly recommend the second book!! It would be a shame to miss it [almost crying]. The first is a quick transmigration novel where the female lead is a seasoned green tea b*tch, satisfying and revenge-giving. The second is a gentle, white moonlight female lead who is popular with both men and women, but there's no romantic pairing [sending heart]. The fourth is a sequel to the third, featuring a female lead named Shi Xia + a funny woman + a smart woman 🧠 + revenge-giving + not a saint. The fifth is an infinite flow novel where the female lead is bound to a romance system and uses romance tools in creative ways [smirking]. Funny + smart 🧠 + decisive + not a saint~

She likes to get even with people on the spot (probably), but after spending so long as an office drone, at first she just goes with the flow and takes things as they come. Only later does she figure out what she wants to do. She spends most of her time among humans. No idea if this counts as a power fantasy.

    1. Come see our Sister Yue! Our Sister Yue is really not abusive in the early stages, not abusive to the female lead! That's her past life's alt account memories, her main account's pressure, her alt account memories, loving you, and her old self. In this life, she kills enemies with a nine-generation radius, killing anyone with whom she has too much interaction. And the author writes very interestingly, highly recommended!! 2. This is a semi-behind-the-scenes story I accidentally discovered. The female lead draws characters (with her own consciousness). Early development, later saving the world. The writing style in the early stages feels a little lacking, the pacing is a bit fast, but it gets better later! I quite like this genre. 3. The number one veteran player of Infinite Flow continues the road trip survival! The plot is interconnected, and the partners are all veteran players of Infinite Flow. I like chatting and small fun. 4. I thought it was a game, but it's actually the real world. However, the players don't care about anything, they only do what they want to do (there is only one player (the female lead) who dares to show her health bar, so kill him). The base is built well, and the good stuff is handed over to others.

    No romance! The female lead has a silver tongue! The counterattacks are incredibly satisfying! "The Entire Sect Dislikes Me for Being Useless, So I Turn Around and Contract a Divine Beast" is definitely worth checking out!! A no-romance, female-centric cultivation novel. The female lead, Bai Jianwei, is a character who grows stronger step by step with the system! And here's the key point!! The female lead has a silver tongue!! Although her strength isn't high enough in the early stages, she weighs the pros and cons when encountering someone much stronger than herself, and won't blindly rush in to her death, but she absolutely won't tolerate being bullied when necessary!! She really dares to speak her mind, hahaha! I'm so tired of those female leads who are bullied by scheming women and have to swallow their anger. Our Bai Jianwei is someone who, while not strong enough yet, will never be outdone by her words!! And there's no romance, no men dragging down the plot, just focus on leveling up, contracting a divine beast, and her journey of revenge! Sisters who like to read about strong female leads growing stronger, slapping scheming women in the face, and satisfying cultivation novels, come check this out!! The author updates consistently, so you can wait with confidence!!

    No romantic pairing, ensemble cast of female characters (90% of the characters are women), the protagonist focuses solely on his work and solving cases. The only caveat is that the protagonist has no special abilities; it's not a wish-fulfillment story. He's a lowly, hardworking underling with no connections, advancing the main plot entirely through his own efforts and connections.
