   Whether it's the original Shi Fei or the evil god Shi Fei, they're all really good to ship with Xia Tou, especially the original Shi Fei, which is so heartbreaking and has a strong sense of destiny. No matter what Shi Fei is like, he loves him and silently protects him, which is incredibly touching. The second book is good for master-servant pairings, and there's also a little fox who secretly loves Mengmeng and falls for her at first sight, but there are some red flags. The ending is a bit rushed, and the epilogue adds some slice-of-life moments. I really didn't intend to recommend the third book, but since I saw others recommending it, I'll tell you about it. Ping An is a really gentle person, but gentle yet not soft, on the surface!! Even with women, he doesn't fall in love. As for why he doesn't fall in love, you'll have to read the book yourself. Anyway, I've been following it since the first few chapters. I'm very satisfied! He can ship anyone (even the weird pairing of Kuan Dao and his partner), (whispering). The fourth book is one I read hundreds of years ago, and it's good \(//∇//)\ The synopsis says that the protagonist is ruthless in killing, but you really should read the book before judging. It feels like almost everyone he kills has a reason. You can find sweet moments in the deaths. I remember some of the pairings I shipped, like a pair of very young children and a yellow-robed bishop. They're all great! I've read a few before, and they're really good. If you think these aren't enough, I can share some more with you. The most important one is the one where they actually confessed their feelings later on (//∇//) (Ah!!! Screaming, dark and twisted crawling joy ^ω^ But you don't have to rely on your imagination to get them together).

   Let me recommend three books first. The third one is currently complete, and I've already finished reading it. I highly recommend it; I strongly suggest everyone read it. It's not that the first two are bad, it's just that personally, I think the third one is much better. \(//∇//)\ Let's start with the first one. How should I put it? It's incredibly cute! It's set in a group of ghosts, and the male lead always thinks he's acting. I was totally shipping him and the second male lead; they're so adorable! The second male lead is always silently protecting the male lead. What a loyal rock singer x innocent and sensitive young actor! I haven't finished the second novel yet, but it's also great. It's about a manager and the protagonist, and they're always saying things like, "Who dares to hit my manager?" And "Who dares to hit my actor?" "Brother Huang always stands behind Luo Nan and is incredibly cute. Who understands? He's clearly a rich young master, yet he becomes a doting manager for the protagonist. And the male lead, how should I put it, is just too adorable! I recommend everyone read the third novel; it's truly a white moonlight. The male lead is like a big, silly husky—clearly intelligent but too lazy to think, and incredibly cute! He interacts with every character, and each character is incredibly endearing. With Officer Xu, there's this inexplicable old married couple vibe; with Da Shui, it's like two silly huskies together are invincible (Da Shui and Xiao Fei, you two are a match made in heaven!). Then there's Long Er. My Brother Long truly deserves to be a pillar of support; he's really like a doting mother/not really, like watching your own child cause trouble and being willing to protect him in every way. And it's not just a purely doting motherly role; the protagonist, Fei Fei, will also help Team Long. Mutual assistance and building a better society together. Who understands?" This is truly wonderful; fans who are into career-oriented content can now start shipping them!

    This is so satisfying to ship couples in a novel without a romantic pairing!!! I specifically chose these kinds of books because I absolutely love them. They're all top-notch, except for the 9th book which is a bit average (I recommend it because the main character and his brother are such a great couple). The rest are all divine!

    This book is really good. Although there's no rating yet, many people are reading it. It's just that very few people have rated it, but the author's writing is excellent, the plot doesn't drag, there's no romance (so you can ship whatever you want!), Plus it features a strong, beautiful, and tragic character, multiple identities (currently all the author's identities are male characters), and lovable teammates—it's truly exceptional. You absolutely must read it! If you're not comfortable with that, check out the reviews; it's really good!! I've been recommending this book repeatedly, and it's the only one I've ever tipped. It's truly amazing.
